    I'm impressed...not only is he trained, he's been taught how to be condescending!

    This is remarkable progress from the old days when we trained psychologists using double-blind mice.

    They were most likely the same.

    Not sure then :)  So not adapting anymore, just philosophizing a little on something you know naught about?

    335 rounds, HL equipment. short tees and 30% 1 putt.  Ever considered you might be on the wrong thread?

    So fix the f'n dots!!!! I need them!!!!! Screw the Android players, their idiots anyway trying to play on a 3.5inch screen! LOL

    Never understood how they can play on a small screen like that, but of course u have the bigger phablets now, my missus has a Samsung Note 2, which has a massive screen.

    I was in the dentist the other day, the waiting room had 14 people sat in it, all young girls and a couple of young men, no conversation, just 14 heads bent down playing with their phones.

    It was a weird experience. Spooky

    Edit:  sorry for the 'unnecessary bantering' - would hate to see a 63  oops, 53 page thread locked

    Off to the opticians next week

    I plead guilty to derailing, but "Pee" represents the worst kind of professional, one whose station in life has caused him to embrace an unjustified arrogance and a condescending attitude that only serve to blind his capacity to see his own shortcomings in that regard.  I encountered this kind of inflated ego more than a few times in my work and will call it out whenever I see it...I've grown too old and too cantankerous not to do so.

    Has anyone given a moments thought that they may have changed them because everyone was whining about how easy the game has become to host new individuals?

    Things in life change. Change with them or get out of their way. I've seen the change, have not whined, endured. My game is better for it.

    Adapt.

    I was trying to adapt with some success until the ruddy dots started moving at changing speeds for one putt. One time the faster speed was right. Another, the slower. Mostly though, neither.

    Look in fairness you can easily see how a top player can.  They play so very much, understand the game and are genuinely good at it.  Combine a good ADP with exceptional green knowledge, and yes the scores will remain great.

    Is it satisfactory that the dots are too random though is the ?  WGT must know there are not enough of us even aspiring to be that good (time before we know if skill is there too).  Players like Mags just gotta say well done (sure you do) for achieving what they set out to.  I am sure now and then this costs even him a putt, but for the rest of us it will cost a bit more. In fine line stuff that's not on IMO.  WGT will be hoping the average AM / T Pro  won't know or care until they are fried, out the other end and then who cares the brass seem to say.  I think that's wishful thinking, but then I would think that:)

    WELLLLL, Tr AM and unlimited on BPB has been playing good for several days, but today the dot speeds are all f'ed up again, meter jumpy as all he!!, distances all f'ed up too...

    try it 1 more time late tonight and if it is still jacked up back to 1 hole a day for awhile...

    Said it before, I reach level 102 tonight, in fact about an hour, and I have all the credits and equipment banked and bought that I need...might just quit for awhile after this weekend...

    Hi

    Agree with you!   

    The dots are very bad today and meter more unstabil than I have seen for a long time!

    Distances also a bit tricky today.
