  I'm playing the best of putting.... and make a 103 yrd Hole in. I saved the shot and my opponent (who had just shot 34 yrds past the hole) quit the game. I saved the replay.. but now when I replay it.. it shows HIS shot instead of my hole in.. what's going on?

  You have to be quick in multi player games to capture a replay, it has to be finished before the next shot is taken. Click Save then click Copy

  IMO, the opponent shot before bush. Furtheron, it should only be possible to save your own shot(?)

  This is weird and looks like another wee glitch.

  And, best practice in MP games would be to copy the replay URL into the paste buffer - it's the fastest way to save it.

  Yes.. he shot before me... the recorded shot was actually his. While I was saving my shot (I assume) he quit the game (I don't think he liked that I just scored so big on him. great tip on pasting the link in the buffer.. thanks

  Is this your replay BCOF,  CLICK.

  courteneyfish:

  Courteney, I'm sorry, but on this occasion you are incorrect. In multiplayer games ( except Blitz) the window for saving your shot is from the moment after you play your shot to immediately before you play your next shot, (but before you move onto another hole) irrespective of how many shots other players have taken between those two events.

  Me thinks that a player has a certain very limited time (20 - 30 secs?) to save his shot, before the game continues. The others have to wait in this instant.

  I've done enough experimenting on this to know what I'm on about, trust me.

  There is somewhere on the replays list when you try to save the shot that there are so many seconds left to save - I think it is either 15/20/25 - will have to try it again to see

  You are correct Ian, the Blitz save replay window has a timer on it...

  I wouldn't forget that timer because it cost me the replay of my first HIO in an A/S.
