  I can handle the warp speed greens,  but Ultra Slow 2 is the biggest bulldust I know on this planet.....lol

  I'm scared to start comps with random conditions now...lol   I suppose there is no way we can turn em off?

  Wut?

  supercilious - behaving or looking as though one thinks one is superior to others.

  As in - Paulton is a supercilious fool.

  Here to help...

  Agreed. The ultra slow 2 green speed is a joke.

  It would be nice if WGT would say,

  "We at WGT are thinking about implementing new green speeds for CC tournaments, what does the WGT community think about this new idea?"

  This should be standard protocol for every new idea WGT wants to introduce to the game.

  WGT wants us to suggest new products and have the WGT community weigh-in on them. How about WGT share their new ideas and have the WGT community weigh-in on them.

  Well if it's all about the challenge I have a few for you WGT!

  1. Fix the invitation system.

  2. Fix the crash and disconnections issues that you have always had.

  3. Fix the awards system.

  4. Fix the systematic way that players are cheated out of ball life. Beat the heck out of a golf ball and the game crashes and you have just lost that many hits on a ball.

  Do you need more challenges? Give me longer that the 3 seconds that it took to come up with these.

  It's shocking.  Couldn't get me old brain to hit the ball 20-30ft more than usual....lol

  Still have em so we can choose to play on them, I suppose,  but turn em off for Random Conditions.

  Icon mentions challenge !! Well, WGT advertises itself as this being the most realistic golf game online. Are these ridiculous green speeds realistic ???? I can safely say absolutely they are not. I played golf for 40 yrs until I was thrown off the course due to ill health, I played at 2 handicap for some years and never came across these stupid speeds EVER. 

  So maybe for those who know nothing about real golf and have been brought up playing fantasy game, this will be brilliant, but for the rest of us its ridiculous.

  So Icon go back to your management people and say I think we made an error tinkering with the green speeds, lets get rid of this update. Or do us customers not matter anymore?

  I know this won't happen, but we can live in hope

  Are you sure?

  My folks like them superfast greens, and the "Crazy" tournaments by Shoe had their supporters.

  Try the Putting CTTH with lightning speeds - it's good fun!
