    Even though I am only L92, I was holding my breath for at least a L94 iron set that could close the gap between the R11s(yes, I know I can score with the R11s - lol) and the L97 and L100 Nikes. 

    I agree. But, it won't ever happen. The difference between the R11's and 97 Nikes is not big enough to come out with irons "in the middle". The only thing logical would be to drop the 97's to 94/95 since they now have the 100's. 

     

     

    Hmm...that is a pretty good idea there Jay.

    it's not all of it as some features will be seen in a little while when we have a chance to go deeper with the details.

    Maybe you're talking about this from Upcoming Product Releases?

    Personally I would advocate L95 and TL tier and leave them at L97 all other tiers.  That way it is pressure against bagging or wait until L97. There are enough comps at L level so I can't see any pressing reason to release them earlier there - sorry.  

    Surely that would not over load the programming too much?? They need to do something to encourage genuine TLs to stop them just saying must be joking if hanging around that long.

    Mostly it's all perception anyway, but the game loses people over it and a simple change would give people light to aim for.

     

    You know Jimbog - if they would just open everything up once a guy hits TL, I could live with that easily. But doing so it would be nice to get easy course conditions to NOT count towards your average. 

    But I assume there are a lot of players like me that have my sights (yes, doing it on legitimate courses) on TL around L94/95. WGT could then just keep adding clubs to the TL level and guys would now make it a priority to get there by playing a lot and buying balls. 

    It is not a huge deal, but it is frustrating on the principle of it, to play a L100 legend that has better equipment. I can beat or play with most of them, but it would be nice to have the choice to play them on equal terms if one chose too. 

    I will continue to whine softly about it lol.

    This "add to purse", is it rake free?

     

    I second that emotion (question)

    They seem to be rake free........I started a tourney and all the credits I added are the purse!

    Genuine people like you good luck with whatever you can get IMO.  The red tee stuff never helped anything for what we are talking about, just made TL super easy to get quite early  if all you aim for is TL route 1 red.  Argue the pros and cons of different scenarios all day long, but as much as anything L95 and TL too just seems reasonable as a compromise.  Not ideal player wise, but a hell pf a lot better than what we have which is just losing people from the game.  Easy for me to say I know but the L97 released a little early in this fashion would solve so much IMO...The L100 ones are nice, but another option that really has zero impact on scores.  Not saying the R11s are not great irons but the L97s early would stop the exodus I think- perceptions that get fueled by 18 month hard play waiting times (understandable IMO).

    About fixes:

    The avatar display error has been fixed for the 2013 Lexus avatar. It's back in the "appearence" section after long absence, though I always had it through my games.

    Thank you WGT!

    While creating a new tourney for my club, I was unable to complete the task  because I was continuously informed  that I do not have enough credits to  add to the pot. I was making up a free tournament  which does not require credits, so what might the problem be? Please advise.              Scodova7  

    If so, this needs to be fixed tonight, WGT.

    This only happens when you try top sweeten the pot and don't have enough credits.  If you don't add anything it works the same as before.
