Love the clapping, such an ego boost.........would also like to have "yelling out" phrases after hitting our tee shots.

The clapping is perfect for me. Now I can fire the 3 guys I hired to stand in my room to clap after a birdy

Here we have 12 pages of members saying they don't like the clapping sounds, and I also don't like it, and not ONE reply from WGT. This really show how much WGT cares about their customers.

Heh. Found a workaround, lame as it is. My laptop has a mute button on the deck so while the putt is on the way, if it goes in I hit that button real quick and hit it again when the hole ends. I thought I would eventually get used to it but it just seems to get more annoying. :-(

That is what I have been doing but when playing in a group you almost have to keep your finger on that mute button when everyone is on the green.

Still would like to hear from WGT on this overwhelming negative response.

If they do allow an option to mute the clapping, maybe at the same time they could offer the option to disable the caddy which had come up in a WGT initiated a while back and had a similar overwhelming response.

Add another to list of members not crazy about the clapping. Cute once, but now annoying.

And while we're on the subject, how about the annoying theme music? Anyone else had it with that? I kind of like the heartbeat during CTTH games, but the slider to kill the annoying theme music kills the heartbeat.

Need some additional configuration settings so that we can stop that which annoys us and keep what we like.

And jeez, how much time was spent programming this? How about WGT spending some time implementing a new stroke play course and giving us something worth all the money we pump into the game. Can anyone remember the last time we got a new course?

Just got one this week! And Pinehurst is right around the corner. Although a best of, still a new format to play.

The last new stroke play was Merion last April. Hard to forget the US OPEN!

I'm starting to get slow loads now between shots.

Not the usual slow loads when we are waiting and waiting to load the next screen.... but the Avaratar will come on screen and the rest of picture will slowly load, litle by litle.

Just started since the Clapping started.

I think that Wgt is loading in too much Information now.
