  As us poor downtrodden mobile players don't have access to all the features in wgt and yet still pay the same amount for equipment, how about you reward us with a few mobile only tournaments so only ppl playing the mobile version can enter! Would also be interesting to see what the winning scores would be i suspect the 56's would dissappear magically

  That would be NICE! I agree. I would like to see the mobile platform explode with the same features as the browser game. PMs, all courses and tournys, and def mobile only features. This would be GREAT. No shotmasters on mobile, not yet anyway.

  Right now I would just like to be able to play single player but mobile app won't even let me do that.

  We did have a lot of Mobile only games, participation was very small.  I can talk to them about trying again, but without the participation it's difficult.

  Ive only been playing since May shoe so I assume it was before then but your mobile market is gonna be huge and probably the future of this game once wgt sync all tourneys and features so it's a level playing field, I love the game but my biggest frustration is not being able to play my friends in my cc as their on PC i imagine the logistics of programming this are a nightmare but a few mobile only tourneys I believe would be great and would only get bigger and better, the tablet/mobile market is already outgrowing the old PC sales wise so it's within your interests to encourage us fat fingered touchscreen hacks to play more 😃

  Mobile will never be a big as the web due to the fact that many of us only have s small screen Iphone to play on. It is just too hard to play well with that set-up. Right now I only play a couple of 3 hole randoms at work during lunch just to kill some time and get my consecutive day bonus.

  if you could make wgt available on android the numbers might significantly increase after all android users are in the majority

  I have been an avid gamer for 20 plus years. The rig I play on cost 4K dollars. That's just the tower, not monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc... I have been a hardcore FPS guy forever. They way things are going, it's about bigger phones, tablets, and touchscreen computers, not to mention consoles. WGT is a FLASH game. It's port over to iOSX runs 100 times better than dealing with flash on any browsers. Not to mention even the graphics look better. Sure it needs to be tweaked a lot. There are a ton more changes and features needed but it has ENORMOUS potential. All the way around PC or mobile APP, things need A LOT of work. Don't get me wrong the game is great... it just still has a ton of bugs all the way around. It may not be today, or in 5 years... but the mobile market will dominate free browsers games. Much like over the last 10-15 years consoles are taking over the pc gaming world. A TON of games that were originally written for PC are now all built on the engines for consoles and ported over to PC.

  Either way... fun game.. add me we will play around sometime.. I still play on both phone and PC.

  That would def help. However a large portion of android users don't have the nicer phones that would be able to play WGT even though they run droid.

  The tablet market is huge though, but I also didn't realise wgt wasn't available on android when that happens which im sure it will then mobile will be massive
