  Help,,,,

  Can someone explain to me the tier process. I am a Master with a "65.88" I think? but now I am now afraid to play match games so I only play my CC and Stroke play games by myself. I am not sure what happens if I join a MP game what happens, win or loss, I try to setup the game for Master and/or TM but no games are available for me to play, so I am very confused. Please help clarify this , it would be greatly appreciated because I miss MP and I lost most "say 90 percent" of them.....  plus I never play for credits just want to play golf with someone like I use to, and I never get any requests for games anymore, is this due to the new confusing rules? I only want to enjoy the game not the credits, thats a long way down the road, heck my driving accuracy is barely 70 percent GIR's 50 percent I am not threat to anyone.

  The only time you'll have a problem is if you consistently beat players in tiers above you. Then you're going to get accelerated into that tier. And if you're consistently beating higher tiers you belong there.   :-)

  Thanks Yankee, 

  Just could not figure out why I can't get a game in my tier and if there was a new rule it would move someone up if they beat me ,,, But I am getting better at the M level and I do hope to move up ,, I love the learning curve.... care less about the credits,,,, I use the 10 credit WGT balls and pay for them by Videos LOL

   

  Again Thanks

  Great attitude. Try the 22 credit Tour-SD balls. You get 2 each dots in distance and  spin and the meter's easy to get used to. You can make a sleeve a day just watching commercials.  :-)

  Um, I shoulda said 65 a sleeve. I have the 22 credit number in my head because when one hits the drink I laugh about another 22 credits down the drain. 1 of the cheaper Callaways is 4 of those.  ;-)

  It might be a stateside thing. Wendys, Best Buy, McDonalds, to name a few.

  YJ, you must have missed a few loooong threads about this. As it stands now (until they change it, as promised in the last MisterWGT chat), 3 disconnects or forfeits (they count as wins) from any legend, regardless of the in-game score, would make Edbeau a TM.

  Thankfully this is supposed to change ASAP. Disconnects or forfeits will no longer lower the avg and drop in avg cause of a win against a higher tier will be toned down a little, at least that's how I understood Mr. Pizza in the forums and Mr. Nelson during the Chat with Chad.
