  That is your percentage of completed games. This number goes down when you leave in the middle of multi-player games.

  Not exactly. It's more a representation of the likelihood of one not getting disconnected in multi player games.

  I have played 5 complete gaes and percentage or average has not changed. Why?

  It counts 30 games. Any incomplete game will not be extinguished before further 30 multiplayer rounds.

  It's exactly what SD said.

  This is your interpretation which unfortunately is spoiled by the fact that more innocent victims are hit by the %% drops than "culprits".

  Example: One player leaving a fourball (stroke or A/S) and causing a forced "forfeit" of the others:

  One responsible dropping in %%,

  Three innocents dropping in %%.

  This I call more collateral damage than legal hits, even with respect to your general interpretation.

  Everybody starts with 93%. 

  If you completed 2 or 3 Multi-Player games then it would go up to 100%.

  If you get disconnected from a game, then that figure goes down ,eg 97%

  It's worked out on your last 30 games, I think.

  This is where it gets silly......  At the moment, if your partner gets disconnected in Alt shot, then you take the hit too (not sure if that is fixed yet).... or if anybody disconnects... then everybody takes the hit

  It's suppose to show the people who quits games too many times.

  No , it isn't. It goes by connections, not games completed. People are trying to turn this stat into a quitter thing and it's more than that. It goes to how reliable your connection is in a game as much as it does by you purposely quitting.
