  In my opinion the wgt game operators have programmed the game in a way that makes it impossible to play to your potential without encountering what appears to be some preset interfearence from a counter productive programmed device

   This amounts to theft in my opinion and I suggest that if it prevails you will lose many of the faithful players that have enjoyed the game like i have since pre 2010

  I know it is hard to prove without thorough un fettered investigation. But I intend to do all I can to prove my point. This tack the game has taken is getting so evident that I can almost predict when shots or putt are about to go wrong. I am not the only one to notice this. The fact that the game says there are millions of players to challenge I get the same 20-30 names most times I look for a game and when I get to a name I haven't seen before or that has a standing that might allow me to be even or better the bet box does not come up.These and other repeated anomolies suggest a high degree of manipulation is built into the program. I believe a class action suite for false advertising and theft are in order and await the day that I accrue enough players who have come to the same conclusions I have to make just such a suite a reality.

  Dear 68 average Steve,

  Ar$e handed to you on a plate one too many times in MPC, and then watched it get fried in RGs.

  Hmmmmm and now it's 

  stevenwc:

  a class action suite

  even though we see only 1 in the class:

  

  You need to accept many are way better than you (MANY).  Recently though you have signs of improvement, and should focus on that.  This is not an easy game, and so basically look at ways of getting better, spending your energy there. Currently the picture reflects your post.

  OK I'm gonna hijack this a little rather than start a new RG thread.

  I don't have a gripe about RG's being "rigged", I do think the VEM is cranked up a little for RG's, but it's cranked up for everyone and the best players deal with it better.

  My problem is with the 12hr time frame for each one.

  I'm not good enough to compete in most of 'em and break even, so I pick and choose when the ones I know I can do OK in turn up every now and then, and I can actually make a few credits.......Take the recent BPB 50c back 9 that has just been taken off, I played that as often as I could and won a couple and also made some credits in a few more.

  The problem is this:-

  Quote:

  "Play this 50-person, 9-hole stroke play tournament on St Andrews. Purse is paid out to the top 30 players. A new Ready-Go tournament begins once fifty people enter! Please check tournament rules for country and state restrictions."

  Now the statement in bold is true.......BUT......What it fails to mention is that it only opens another RG with the same set up for anyone who didn't just enter the one it's advertising!

  Not only do you have to wait for 50 people to enter, you also have to wait until they ALL post a score, and then wait some more until the scores are verified and registered, and then wait even more until everyone gets their credits. So unless everyone gets done asap and it's all verified and sorted within 12hrs, you will probably only play one RG per day.

  Now from WGT's business perspective, I think this is costing 'em $$. Because if I was allowed to go straight into another same RG as soon as I had posted my score, I would be playing 'em as often as I could, and I don't think I'd be alone in that.

  Any views on this WGT??
