  TopShelf2010:

  This thread is becoming just like the "Who will have the last word thread."

  just a whole lot of venting by some loyal customers,
  that got mistaken for idiots once too many.
  people are pissed off  .... - that's a good thing.

  wgt overplayed their hand t this time.

  Chill all.....was basically a test ?

  That's a pretty laid back outlook on this new feature Andy. Shoe started this thread like the CC vs CC Event was ready to play. Its only when people started playing the debacle unfolded. I don't believe this was a test.

  I'm a pretty laid back person in general, until riled Rich .. :-)

  Shoe said in the 1st post and 2nd sentence that it WAS a TEST....

  I 'Predicted a Riot' on the 1st of this month before this was rolled out ( see other pages )

  It should come as no great surprise to long term members that things can take a while to settle down...

  ( remember the 90+ pages of Flash update probs back when ? )

  Can only boil it down to the 'green eyed monster' for a 'golden blade' that I and most with the NIKE wouldn't bother learning new increments anyway AND won't make you putt if you CAN'T  !!!

  Well played / spent  whoever won....

  Andy

  Hmmm...I actually thought that online scams originated in Nigeria.

  It doesn't take a 160 IQ to see that this brainstorm of someone at WGT has been somewhat less than wonderful unless, of course, the intent was to alienate players who wonder at inequities in the game equipment and why anyone should be allowed to have any club with specs double those of clubs mere mortals can purchase.  I suppose no one thought about whether the new super putter will be allowed in RG, Brackets, Monthly and Weekly tournaments, matches, and any other method WGT devises to relieve people of credits for themselves or the possessor of the magic gold putter.

  Is this really what players are to expect now?  If so, then I know why you have lost players in the past because, frankly, I am becoming disillusioned by the twists and turns of the last couple of months.

  How much money (credits) will be enough to satisfy the greed?  How many ads, surveys, equipment sales, et al will be enough?  How many marketing schemes will we have to tolerate?

  Not this time, I suppose the idea has evolved!

  Someone did mention, where is Chad in all this debacle........probably laughing his ass off.

  Yeah, I agree , where is the skill factor, not another game of chance. I just can't figure people. 

  Think about it what was there to win? It wasn't like an RG where you had a chance at some credits, you fork out credits to buy passes to do what , get your CC points? For what how is that going to benefit anything . To try and be that one guy to get a putter ...... really.

  It just amazes me what people will do. Yeah, I did play the first one , then I saw where the road was heading. 

  Like I said before make it free with a real competition . Not everything you do has to involve making a buck off somebody, but you still will cause there will always be ball life

  That's makes two of us, and a majority of players in this thread. : )

  Admin missed the mark on a few details, but was good to hear WGT acknowledge mistakes and will take everyone's suggestions for a better CC vs CC Clash experience in the future.

  As far as Augusta National winning the "Gold Putter", they should do the right thing and reject the "Gold Putter" until the next CC vs CC Clash.

  There were no clear cut winners but WGT this time.

  Off topic, but has to be asked.

  Will WGT still hold the meet & greet? Shoe is going to get pummeled with questions for sure.
