  ANOTHER NIGHT OF WGT BUUULLLLSHIIITTTTTT

  HEY WGT ADMINS'    THE GAME IS MESSED UP

  YOU GUYS DO NOTHING, JUST *** THE PLAYING COMMUNITY

  YOU HAVE NO CREDIBILITY AT ALL

  BAN ME I DONT GIVE A ***.....YOU GUYS ARE THE MOST UNRESPONSIVE CORPORATION I HAVE SEEN IN A WHILE....YOU GIVE A FEW STOCK ANSWERS TO THE PUBLIC LIKE YOU ARE FIXING THE ISSUE AND TIME PASSES AND NOTHING GETS DONE

  AT LEAST TRY FIXING THE GAME , HIRE A PROGRAMMER YOU CERTAINLY HAVE THE REVENUE TO AFFORD ONE.

  JUST RIDICULUS........

   

  EVERYONE SHOULD BOMB THEM WITH ERROR REPORTS....SEND ONE EVERY SINGLE TIME WE GET JERKED AROUND BY WGT

  Hello everyone.

  We are currently investigating the issue regarding invites. I appreciate anyone who has sent in a email to the Customer Support team with details. At this time it is not known what is causing the invites to fail. Once we have more information we will let our players know. Please try not to make anymore threads regarding the issue. You may post in this thread to provide information on the situation.

  - When did you notice the invites stop working? A date and time would be great.

  - What game modes are you trying to invite players to? 

  - Are you never receiving an invite, is it only from certain players? Is it random, are you the only one not receiving it or is your friend/player not receiving it either?

   

  Once again thank you for your patience in this matter.

  It Is apparent that you guys are struggling with the basic concept of debugging software.  Let me try and help you out a little, first you will need a decent analysis and a couple of programmers. Then follow these basic principles, commonly found in most 1st year students academic reading list , however, I will add them here to save you the embarrassment of explaining why , as I.T. professionals you would need them.

   

   It is true that the process of locating a defect and fixing it is first a search problem. I've seen many engineers go at it different ways - there are those that, based on hunches of likely culprits, make an educated guess at where the defect is, make a change, and re-test.
  
  For easier problems, tracing the failure back to the root cause systematically works great. However, they don't always present themselves to this method.
  
  For the more difficult problems I'm a big fan of the binary search. Divide the system or program in half and see on which side of the division does the evidence point to the existence that the program state is flawed. If it's flawed on both sides, you focus on what happened first, if it's only in the latter side, then you can eliminate one half of the potential solution space to focus on.

  Finally , If I can be of further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me, and also bare in mind that most college's and university's will accept the older student onto refresher courses .  Hope this helps guys. 

  Occam's Razor comes to mind......

  I think it started with the last update and the asinine green speeds added to CC's.

  You Broke it fix it, or are the IT guys in India, and don't have a clue?

  With all due respect WGT, this is getting rediculous.  This has been an issue since mid  December (http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/277902.aspx).

  This has to be costing you money and that is why I am surprised that you haven't fixed it.

  Tonight, it took 4 of us about 30 minutes to get one game going. I would think that you would at least come on here or respond to all those that are posting to at least acknowledge that you are doing more than planning the next Clash.

  One would have thought that WGT would be on their best behaviour right about now....considering that parallel universe that now exists and the speed in which they are responding to a prioritized list of issues/requests....apparently, they have chosen the run and hide response...

  It has been 3 days that I am unable to play with my partner. Always the same player.

  I think it is because they can't say what the problems are, as THEY haven't figured it out yet ?

  Annoying for us but....................................................................................

  Me either. We tried a million different configs and can't play. So WGT knows, we are big spenders and have been members since 2008. Call your best developer and get his ass in the office. Or call your IT guy and get him out of the bar. People depend on you. Come on.
