I actually like this new feature and already used it a few times.

But I understand that a sleeve could be accidentally sent. So, here is a suggestion:

Wouldn't this problem be solved if this feature was kept as it is but with an additional YES/NO confirmation message?

What happens if you don't have enough credits for the gift?

Hope you have overdraft protection. ;-)

No I'm actually curious, does it just bring up the window to purchase more credits or does it cancel the transaction?

that's the whole point though. they don't view it as a problem,
but rather as a financial strategy. odds are it was designed this way on purpose.
their swift and decisive answer in this thread speaks for itself.

hate to come off a bit cynical during the holiday season,
but that's how I view things. this is who these guys are now.
might as well accept it and doublecheck before clicking anything,
same as we do with the auto caddie.

CC clash cash grab - If it were here as part of otherwise quality choice might say OK, just are you sure you should also be associated with this;

VT - Goal posts move and OK one finalist was just UL I guess to live in an area where internet cafes are loaded with CE as well as dodgy copies of windows. Multi play each first round is it one even worth looking at next year?

Buy a pass with one click, no confirm button - Shoddy;

Now this one click and could be 700 credits gonsky, no are you sure. Now for several reasons that's plain wrong, and up there with pickpocketing.

I hope they have a change of heart next year. If competition ever came along I am pretty sure we would see a change of management sign saying how ways are going to change. For now it's WGTs choice how their shop window looks, and it's not pretty:

Only difference being the picture is fictional from a funny series.

I'm not sure that this is working the way that WGT may have wanted it to, as sometimes at the end of a multiplayer game I get the scorecard on the left and other times I get the one on the right. If we were always supposed to get the scorecard on the left, why have the clickable parcel on the bottom of the scorecard on the right? As a personal preference, I'd rather have the scorecard with the parcel, as then it would require a delberate act of two clicks to send a gift rather than a (possibly) accidental one click.
