Have you given any thought that you losing connection has nothing whatsoever to do with WGT but instead of your internet connection. [..] Being disconnected happens.
Right!
Alas, imagine what happens to a multiplayer game if one player disconnects, actively or passively:
Matchplay: The opponent may win the match but did not complete the game: His %% drops
balance of accounts: 1 "culprit" drops, 1 victim drops, 50% innocent drops
Alternate Shot: The opponents may win the match but did not complete the game: %% drops for all.
balance of accounts: 1 "culprit" drops, 3 victims drop, 75% innocent drops
Skins, Blitz, Strokeplay: Due to the nature of the game, the other players should not be affected. Alas, old and new programming faults cause that many a game will be impossible to continue, thus discontinued by WGT: §§ drops for all.
balance of accounts: 1 "culprit" drops, 1-3 victims drop, 50-75% innocent
drops.
Thus, a minimum of 50% of the %% drops are only consequences of voluntary or involuntary disconnects. Far more than half of the bad %% stats have to be named "collateral damage". This does not "happen", it is implemented by our game provider.
