  The biggest problem with racism and bigotry is that everyone gets lumped in together.  2% doesn't equate to any race or country of origin.  By you saying all the USA players are quitters you've set back international relations, to pre cold war times.  Maybe you could get a job as Putin's PR man, lol.  Lord knows I've seen flags from many nations start games and not finish, and some I'm sure were booted on WGT's terms not theirs. It's been stated time after time that if you join a CC and play with the people you know, most of the deliberate quitting would be eliminated.

  The amount of USA players must far out number the rest of the world so the chances of you landing on a match with some one from USA is going to be much higher than landing on an Australian, Canadian or maybe Frenchman so your findings are disproportionate.

  Easy way to stop quitters is to play for credits, If they quit you gain, otherwise just forget it and move on to the next match.  (and what cdefgi said about CC too)

  Absolutely ridiculous thing to say. Please leave racial stereotyping out of our forums .

  I think we in the UK have seen overwhelming evidence of the the fact that Americans as a nation are certainly not quitters.

  They do however get a tad nervous in the closing holes of Ryder cups.  ;)

  Hey Paul - Does the OP mean I can bash you (and all of Scotland) now for leaving me "locked in space" <<<(pun) because of game connectivity  issues?

  -- or--

  Does it mean that the OP doesn't read the bug log thread and others and jumps to conclusions like a pearl diver off a cliff?

  LOL, bud
