    For the last few days i've been receiving XP BOOST PLUS points for what i gather is either the first round of the day, or maybe just a good round (by good i mean below my average good)...Today it happens to be both, as for my first round i posted a 67 (with my currant average at 68.43)...However i haven't purchased any drinks since the one and only time back on 10/28/10 (a 2 hour drink) when they first came out.  Anyone else noticing this happening to them?  I may be shooting myself in the foot for announcing that fact that im receiving unearned xp points, however i do not want to be accused of cheating or manipulating this game (although i don't think there is a way for players to track other players XP points history)...

    Still...would like to know if this is a change that WGT has implemented...or perhaps a token of their appreciation from all the balls i've donated to Kiawah's # 17 Pond.

    Could be the 880 points for consecutive days played.

    Yesterday afternoon I noticed the XP Super Boost (2 hour) bottle which I purchased on November 5th, and it said, "After this round XP Super Boost will expire" when I hovered my pointer over it.

    EXPERIENCE POINTS EARNED (for the second round i played today)

    HIT BALL EXPERIENCE + 70

    FINISHED 18 HOLE STROKE GAME +200

    XP BOOST PLUS + 22

    ...Is it possible that i haven't played 2 hours worth of gametime since i purchased the one bottle back on 10/28/10...something i highly doubt as i have played a total of (10) 18 hole rounds(some are combined 9 hole rounds) since then, not counting any match play rounds

    Maybe you purchased a two week bottle?

    Cheers,

    The XP Boost drinks are meant to be consumed in real time rather than game time, meaning that if you buy a week long boost and then don't play WGT for a week you'll find it expired upon your return.

    Perhaps most helpful to the bug hunters would be if you right clicked and reported the issue in-game.  This sends conditional info to us which helps to diagnose problems.

    Thanks for bringing up the issue.  We'll look into it.

    I noticed the other day that after I saved a round that when I came back to finish, a blue bottle was next to my name and I received a small bonus at the end of the round.  This has happened to me twice.  The bottle was not there when I began, only after I saved and then resumed later.
