    1. Would be nice to see what kind of clubs the people have.  Tough when your partner is playing with WGT Starters and your opponents both have R11's. 

    2. Also frustrating when your partner just quits.  Why is reputation an unlit game option, and how do I give my input on the reputation of others?  99% of people are fun, respectful and nice; 1% incorrigible.

    Point #1...you can...during the game, click on their name and then when their mini profile comes up, click "equipment"...shows you what they have

    Point #2  "reputation" has been grayed out for a very long time. WGT never actually used it. I don't think they ever found a way to make it fair/realistic/not grossly affected by people who don't like you, etc, etc. Also, what excatly is "reputation...is it how much you engage in chat during a game? is it whether you concede everything inside 3 feet? is it when you say nice shot every time the other bloke hits a fairway or puts it inside 6 feet? is it how many friends you have?...does it consider if your internet connection fails during a game, or if WGT loading has issues?.too hard to place a numeric value on all that I think.

    biggest update needed for alt shot is.....alt shot for credits...

    You think there are sandbaggers in match play......................

    That said, I would love to play a few select folks for money....it would be great fun among friends.  But, we do that anyway and gift sets of balls back and forth.

     

    true....my thoughts were along the lines of your second comment...alt shot for credits with friends, etc..however...i wouldn't gift balls back and forth with our mutual frend chris....no telling where his balls have been

    in my bag mate .. & with the new stick been keepin' em outta the ruff as well .. lol .. always on the short & trimmed stuff .. i'm new age that way

    Exactly - reputation is absolutely vital for setting up an 18 hole alternate shot game.

    I want an option to only select for opponents with a good reputation (maybe even add a new level called "excellent completion") - rather than having to constantly boot out the "poor" and "average" completion types manually. [because you just know they will not read the "18 holes" message and quit halfway through because they thought it was 9 holes]

    Why is this option there, but inaccessible?
