    I will guarantee, right now, that the invite issues, green dots, and any other bug will NOT be fixed.

    The green dots WILL be fixed even if I have to nail Icon's virtual nuts to his Skype profile link!!!

    To be honest. I never noticed the green dots when they supposedly got faster, nor slower. Maybe it's just me, though.

    Just played Oakmont back 9 RG with fast greens. Thought the breaks were to severe for fast greens. Also found front,back and chip views where all different speeds. What a mess they have made of this.

    Same version here Dan. I use Slimjet, Chrome, and IceDragon. Windows 8.1. Seems one always loads faster than other for some reason.

    LMAO, yeah still using XP, uses a lot less resources than win7 and I only use this pc here, thank god they quit updating it! LOL

    If it helps, I have also tried too play on 6 other pc/laptops with W7 and W8 with similar or worse results...

    I play on FF but have also tried 3 flash versions and 5 browsers with no better results

    I have noticed that too.  As one of greats said before...  Just have to rely on memory. 

    As I mentioned before though...  putting on those warp speed dots, was just about impossible.

    I still think, it's related to the warp speed loading circle at the moment

    I've done more testing and found that there is little or no difference between putt view and chip view dot speeds when the flash quality is set to low.  There is also little or no difference between dot speeds in putt view in low quality vs. best quality.  The dot speeds in chip view get progressively slower as flash quality is increased.

    i haven't tried that one but will give it a try on my next game. i have missed so many putts lately because of this and also noticed that in in front view of chip that dots are opposite.

    I play in high quality and always have done, and maybe a trick anyway is to change it lower?? Any advice ??...Never had meter jitter issues usually , save the recent debacle, but am I generally missing something??

    FWIW I posted in my CC that IMHO things seemed better yesterday.  No clocks out to test to see what they have been up to since the hot fix, but they have been playing.

    Silence from the company on the issue yet again, and just let the issue pass with a wing and a prayer.  That place and quality control over an issue as fundamental as this is nothing short of startling.  Players having to get stop watches out to see if they have finished playing or not after they stuffed it up large.......
