  Camera view issue is annoying but i'm not seeing flags on some holes.  Weekly at Merion is an example.  It's very hard to play with being able to see the flag to judge my aim point on approaches. 

  You do realize there are no flags on Merion?

  It's not a submarine with windows... but yes, Merion has no flags, but as of now, no flagsticks either from anywhere but on the green... Merion now not only does not have flags, but Merion now has no flagstick with that red "pluto-pup" on the top.. does that clarify? lolol

  if u zoom in on the approach to the green the flag will reappear - zoom out and the flag disappears, so need to use zoom in to find where it is first lol

  we spend more time bug hunting and finding work arounds then playing golf these days.

  Just tried to play a few alt games =/.  O my.  On 2 different holes the Actual wind and the wind that showed up on my screen were EXACT OPPOSITES.  Told my P, sorry P ;).  Can't believe I hit that ball into the water with such a strong head wind.

  P:  "The wind as at your back man".  Actually, no it wasn't lol (not on my screen).  This happened on Merion long par 5 front 9.  2nd time was on hole number 8 and it said wind 12 MPH left to right on my screen.  However, after hitting my shot and ball going way way left of green I was like WTF.

  So not only are flags/angles/camera's/views all whack or disappearing, it also appears the wind doesn't always show up properly on the players screen.  SIGH =/.  **Note***, this is only happening on ALT games (so far).  It hasn't happened on any of my Ready Go CTTH's (yet!).  So why is it that the most Detrimental happenings occur in ALT?  Seems a bit strange if you ask me.

  Conspiracy's inserted ______.

  Don't know what you guys at WGT have done, but the site it completely out of whack and kicking people off the site 2 and 3 times during games. I wish you would leave the site as it was so we could complete games and score as we used to. Nothing operates smoothly these days and many are looking for an alternative site to use.

  Please get it back.....

  That's good news, then, as I expect it to continue to get much much worse.. So if it gets much much worse then that will make it much much better... lol

  Lol.  Ok, did WGT try and fix stuff and somehow make it even worse again?  And I'm talking since the 7/31 fiasco.  Just played another game of ALT and this time I'm not even seeing people hit the ball.  In additon I'm getting non stop blue screen??!

  And oh, here's a nice touch, my Meter is now appearing and disappearing doing superman jumps along the way.  If I'm able to even get within 1 - 1.5 inches of the Ding it's a miracle.  WTFFFFFFFF lol?

  I am also experiencing this same issue. I have not had any issues at all from the most recent downtime until this morning.

  I don't know if they've done any further updates since the 7/31 ..

  I do know that tonight, playing a ctth unlimited game, I was getting game crashes (white screen with an exclamation mark) about every 15 or 20 minutes, which means I'll have to give skins games a miss, as I'll be forced disqualified real quick with that many crashes..
