  I think WGT taking too much time of my life in ALT game or even Stroke game. I know you can play 30 sec and make it faster but still its not fun if a player gets penalty. 

  We play multi player for fun not for average may be some extend level up.

  So my suggestion is this. 

  When one player plays other players are idle and they can't setup their markers , view course as they get stuck waiting.

  Why not allow players do everything except hitting until their turn comes up. 

  This way game will be over in 15 min as each player ready by the time they get to hit. 

  WGT saves our time.  Thats new idea. 

  Implement pls.

  To become eligible for a sleeve or three, you'd have to show some facts positive to WGT in terms of business. Somehow the extra effort to serve four different windows for one game and to bring them together must be payed.

  And, if you don't wanna look at the others' shots and chat the idle time, instead being busy to set up your own shot, you might as well play a single game.

  An idea for a short game with friends: Invite them for a 3 hole practice game :o)

  Implement pls. Also send me 3 nike sleeve as its best suggestion you can get.

  Most people play multi-player rounds for the fun of playing with friends not to see how fast they can play a round. Your suggestion is one of the worst and I have ever seen.

  LOL

  No offence Alex but that is the point I think.  

  Personally I prefer A/S with friends as no way can I play my best if not really taking my time.  Stroke for me is just playing the course and personally I like to do that on my own. A/s mode 90 seconds is fine with me as allows banter and some time to concentrate as want to do OK of course......RRs well I would need some good time on some holes as well, and overall concentrating that much with friends banter is not my preferred mode, but each to their own. MP I do with friends also now and then, and that is fun in it's own MP way. 

  Have you really thought this one through Alex:) Not sure it's the best suggestion ....................

  That's entirely within your control since you play multiple games a day. For example, if one hour is what you want to devote to WGT play, stop after an hour no matter how many games you got in. Problem solved.

  I think the idea has merit as an optional behavior, but I am not sure if it can be done. The main reason is probably the way flash behaves since when it's someone else's turn you can't have active screen to make changes. 

  Ill check into it further though.

  Finally a stamp of approval. Hurray...

  What iam thinking is that if there is a way PICTURE IN PICTURE. I know you can create movie inside movie in flash.

  So the main player  can be minimized or ur view can be minimized by switching back and forth.

  Make this game real awsome.

  Trolls go hide.  :)

  We are energy limited time limited lifeform.

  We can not waste time in idle , i normally multitask when i play alt because of idle waiting kills my brain. I might chit chat but not all the time.

  So saving player time should be top priority.  

  We all want to enjoy with our limited energy.  So if we can setup early when others play is good idea.

  I think its implementable.
