  So.... everyone has been having problems lately with the game loading and getting booted from games.  I have been booted from games and then this stupid thing won"t even let me load the page to play a game anymore for a while.  Lot's of people I talk to are having similar problems.

  Until WGT pulls a little cash out of their own pocket books and fixes this problem they need to remove the little flags for the game.  Because, i now have a little yellow flag now which is complete horse crap because i don't leave games until complete.

  If WGT's problems are going to effect our completion percentage and possibility of getting into other people's games it is stupid.

  Do you mean the completion dots, because the Flags are something totally different. The yellow flags are for WGT nation members.

  Ummm...... everyone I have been playing with has been having lots of problems.  I have checked everything on my end.  Tried playing through different browsers and everything.

  I am happy you are not having problems...... but some of us are.

  I mean the little flag that is either green, yellow, or orange for completion percentages.

  It effects getting booted out of some games as the host doesn't want someone that is going to leave early

  3 times I just got booted out of a game and the screen says.. sorry there has been a problem with the game please close the window and try again later.  And, now I can't return because it says I left the game too many times.  What a crock

  In order to regain your completion dot indicator is by playing alternate games ,my guess 2 - 4 times will somewhat gradually bring your completion record back to green may take some time . Just have to be patient for awhile .I feel the frustration in having being booted out for either bad connections. 

       If that does not work try by clearing your flash & cache & cookies ,cause what its doing to your computer to work harder in loading ,IMHO.

     But , not it maybe that your flash is running multiple at the same time ,best way is to disable it.

          Follow the steps below to disable the new PepperFlash.

   

  1 ) Open the Chrome Plugins page by typing this URL into the address bar: chrome://plugins

   

  2 ) Find the "[+] Details" button in the upper right to show the details of each installed plugin and click this button.

   

  3 ) Find the Flash Plugin Section in the list of Plugins.  There may be (2 files) or (3 files) in this section.

   

  4 ) In the Flash section there should be 2 or 3 different versions of Flash listed.  If the Flash section only has one Flash file listed, Click Here to go to the Adobe website and download and install the Adobe Flash Plugin for Non-Internet Explorer browsers. 

   

  5 ) The first Plugin listed in the Flash section is the PepperFlash implementation.  You can tell that the first one is PepperFlash by looking for "PepperFlash" in the Location string.  See yellow highlight below.

   

  6 ) Find the "Disable" link and click that link.

   

  7 ) Now Close all open Chrome windows and tabs and restart Chrome

  I understand that I am able to get the little "green" dot indicator back.  What I don't get is how I got the little "yellow" dot indicator in the first place.  I finish all games I am not booted from. 

  I've talked to people while playing and others are having the same problem.  I know not everyone is having problems but some are.  So is it just to be assumed that all these people need to fix their computers?  Or, is there a bigger issue.

  I remember a time when I listened to people talk about all the problems they had with this game when I wasn't having any. 

  As far as the "pepper flash"....... it has been disabled for over a month

  I Have everything not needed to play this game disabled and I clear everything before I play a game.  I also have a cleaner from piroform I run daily if not more

              Ok  , I / We can see your frustration bout all of this if it makes you feel any better  believe it or not my indicator is orange .I also NEVER w/d or quit in any types of game mode and would never let it bother myself with at all ,but for some others here will feel the same aspect ( IMO ) . Hey for what its worth .

              You're right for most ppl here will have the same issues w/their computer ,thats technology for you at some point we all will have some flaws no matter what we all do to fix it with whatever source comes about ? Let me ask you this if you don't mind what browser you are using ,may not solve it ,but you never know ?
