    Corwyn:
    VIDEO PROOF OF CLUBS USED:

    If you have video or streaming capability, please do share a recording of your round, and include in the recording a view of the equipment profile [click on your player name, then on the Equipment tab during the round]. Please also include a quick note of the right time point to find this information.

    ^ this, from the opening page post answers your question Jay. No screenshots needed if you're streaming the whole round: Video is sufficient. Opening the stream with the equipment shown is most helpful too. Thanks!

    Swing-meter acts as if it's POSSESSED, stuttering and twitching before zinging from end to end. On each ball.

    Is NOT how it would be on a genuine course.

    No way to control it or even to anticipate it.

    Game isn't fun.

    So, you can all enjoy yourselves but I won't be among you.

    I personally just press printscreen, open up Paint, click paste, and save that image. Then load that file to the image hosting site etc.

    Cheers Mags !! Very simple that ^^ way...

    Worked first time... Yeehaaa, give that man a cigar !

    You were right Corwyn, 10 mins on google ( how to use Paint ) and..........sorted.

    Andy ( strutting round like an IT boffin )  ;-)))

    fmagnets:

    Please can everyone read Corwyn's requirements for screenshot or video proof more carefully? These are NEW requirements from this month onwards and so far nobody in this thread posting after me has met them. Folks are just going to get grumpy if they spend time taking and posting screenshots that are not adequate, and it will not be pleasant for Corwyn having to discount people's submissions.

    For the avoidance of doubt, it must be possible to see the starter 3W and 3H in the image (one selected for the shot, the other being hovered over), along with the D, SW, and LW also visible in the bag. These 5 clubs are where WGT's programming has fallen short, and is where the abuses occurred in June's tournament.

    Good luck all - it seems that this may be the hardest aspect of TIO this month!!!

    Oh, nice, so grinding for my 75 was completely useless in the end. Not going to bother with the scorecard and stats post then.

    Sorry to hear that mm  :(

    I did try and make it as clear as possible in the opening Forum Thread post:

    Corwyn:
    *** Remember, to be in the running for any prizes, you must take and post either a VIDEO record or SCREEN SHOTS with PROOF OF CLUBS used, along with both f9 & b9 CARDS and all the STATS!!!!! (see post below for details) ***

    ... and the information is also in the officlal tourney page/leaderboard description, but obviously, with it being in the main game client, there will be players who don't look at either before playing.

    Nevertheless, I feel bad that this aspect of the TIO events has taken players by surprise, and that the screenshot requirements seem too difficult for many players. This has turned into much more of a headache than I thought possible, for all concerned. I'm sorry!

    P.S. I was very pleased to come back from my trip and see you'd won the July Glenmorangie VT event at Legend level. Congrats on such a big win!
