Country flag names...

  I live in the U.S. and most people around the world know our flag, but since there are so many countries and the icons for the flags are so small, most of the time I can't make out which country the flag belongs to.  It's a little embarrassing to ask people where they're from, but it’s also interesting to know where they are from.  So here’s my suggestion… on the playing screen have the flag out beside the person’s name and when you hover over it show the name of the country that goes with the flag. OR when you go to the score screen between holes where the flags are shown we should be able to hover over the flags and it show the name of the country.  The game is great… this would just make it a little more interesting without having to  embarrass me for asking, and them for knowing their flag isn’t well known.

  Thanks

  Where are you talking about when you say "click on full profile"?  I'm talking about when you're playing a game with someone.  If you are talking about THEIR full profile, it's a little hard to do when you're in the middle of a game and you're playing with three other people whom you would like to know, right then, where they are from.

  It isn't that hard.  One you can always ask them but if you don't want to ask, as someone said you can always click on their name, which brings up their stats and click to go to their profile and see the country there.

  Unless your games are a lot faster than mine, I have plenty of time to read forums, etc. while waiting for the other players to hit.

  Again, I know you can go to their profile and see, I am talking about a very easy and quick way to check out where they are from.  It would be so simple to just be able to hover over their flag in between holes and it show you what country the flag belongs to.  I'm a programmer and believe me, this is not a challenge at all to the creators of this program.  Someone just has to sit down and do it... it is NOT complicated.  It’s not that I don’t want to ask, it’s really that it would be embarrassing to them if I ask.  It’s like telling them that their flag is not important enough for people to know which country it belongs to, and I don’t want to embarrass them by asking, and… the fix is simple and quick for a good programmer.  Believe me… the team that put this program together are experts in their field.  I’ve been on teams like the one who created this program, and I know how simple it would be to create the fix.

  No, this is WGT.
