    It'd be fun to have a silky smooth meter.

    Maybe WGT should equipment themselves in real life with some better servers?

    Try not to play during peak time. It's like not playing St Andrews during Winter!

    Check your video card drivers to make sure they are up to date and try another browser. I use Chrome Iron and I for one don't have meter skips unless my anti-virus program is running its weekly scan and then only when it is scanning drive L which is the drive Iron is installed on. That may also be why I have fewer meter problems than a lot of people. I installed the browser that I play WGT with on a drive that has very little on it and is not used much except to play WGT and I make sure to keep it defragged.

    And so many people want to blame WGT for the meter problems with flash when it is Adobe who makes the flash player software and should make it better so it works well for everyone. But because flash player is a free download  they are in no hurry to make it better. Just like they are in no hurry to make a version of flash that will work with Palm Webos phones. I used the tech support chat feature on my phone to ask if a version of Adobe Flash was available for my phone. The tech I chatted with said no but our engineers are trying to make webos closer to windows so that webos phones could use the same version as windows. I then asked and I quote" Wouldn't it be simpler for Adobe to program a version for webos." The tech said yes of course but Adobe is reluctant to do so. So if you want to complain to someone E-mail Adobe!!
