  Tightrope:

  1. Allow reconnect in stroke multi rounds in the same way as match play

  ..I'd like to see that in all games

  I think one reason why that option is not in all games is that you might end up sitting in the lobby waiting for a player to reconnect that has no intention to reconnect. In match play and alternate shot, the game ends if the player reconnects, but a scored game can continue. 

  To solve that situation there could be two additions:

   

  1. When a player disconnects, the remaining players get question: "Your opponent [name] has disconnected for unknown reasons, do you want to go to the lobby and allow him to reconnect?"
  2. In the lobby, while waiting for the player, the "Tee off" button is active for the game "boss", who can then choose to go back onto the course without waiting the full 5 minutes.

  If a player ends his round clicking "End round", a message "Your opponent [name] has quit this round" and no options to allow him to reconnect will be necessary.

  Multiplayer games for CC would sure make my life easier.

  This is fantastic, I asked this question at the last chat via WGTmustang, it didn't make it to the surface.  multi player games in CC tournaments would be incredible.

  Also, when in a multi player stroke game if someone gets disconnected, there goes the match, that person cannot get back in and that sucks.  please please address this as you have in alt shot or match play.

  Is there a timeline for an update of the "Forum" part of WGT?

  No only have the options been criticized (text formatting, import of pictures etc.) but it's also uncomfortable to have a different UI in the CC fori (e.g. the "email me replies" button is hidden in a tab and defaulted "on" for every post).

  I'd welcome the addition of an (instant) option to 'Post Scorecard' at the push of a button/click of a mouse at the end of each round.

  As  you seem to have no effective method of controlling multiple accounts and the consequence of higher level players reaping false awards in lower levels games, will 'gambling' for credits (which were originally) real money be discontinued until you can set up an effective verification system.

  :) I see a pig flying over the moon...... Honestly

  2. why can't all top level clubs be available to low level Legends ? lvl 90 pro's with top clubs hitting off pro tees seems to me an unmerited advantage .. while low level Legends like myself don't have access to those clubs yet ..

   

  I like this one ^

  Perhaps the introduction of a new tier would be worth discussing? There are quite a few players with an average of 59 or lower now, perhaps they should be in a tier of their own (i.e Champion), as it could give newer Legends a decent shot at some Ready Go's. Rather than the 59ers collecting thousands upon thousands of credits, it would be a much more even spread.

  Also it would give Legends a new tier to aspire to reach.

  me too...I have no interest in playing RG's or any paid for comp because it's just not a level playing field...what's the point on giving sub 60 avg players my credits when they all ready complain of not being able to cash them in on $100 gift cards...poor souls, how cheated they must feel!! I think some of them must be Investment wankers, because, along with WGT, their greed knows no bounds!

  In fact I have no interest on spending anything more on here ever again; freebie balls might play like stones, but at least WGT can have their "stones" back and I don't feel robbed when a perfectly hit shot is snaffled away by the "VEM" and you lose a $1.50 ball

  It would be nice to have a CC match-play bracket so the Club's tournament sponsor wouldn't have to use an external website to create a bracket.

  It tends to be a tedious process with players having troubles signing-up to the external website and/or having to find the link in the Club forum to access the tournament bracket.

  I believe more CC members would sign-up for CC match-play tournaments if the process was simplified with a CC's own tournament bracket.
