Game ending too Quick...a little moan.

  Hi

  Not a Major issue but Alt and Matchplay games END VERY quickly after the winning putt or shot.

  No time to thank opponent or save that 45ft winning eagle putt.

  Another 5-10 seconds is all we need. Most people on here are polite and would like to say bye or thanks.

  This has been a bit of a problem for as long as I can remember, but the game seems to end more abruptly than ever now. : (

  Good tip for the nimble fingered, coordinated folk who can mouse click in the chat box then immediately click ctrl + V  then Send before the game screen changes and the chat box loses focus and we end up pasting into thin air! LOL

  Hehe, CTRL + V then ENTER is better as there's no requirement to position the cursor on the send button, but this game isn't for the sluggish Mr A.   ; )

  Great tip Mr H!  I gotta try using ENTER.  Then I might even be able to read just one "gg all" before the whole chat disappears!

  The worst case is when its All Square on the last hole and one putt remaining for the win or the halve.  I just know I'll do a premature CTRL + V then ENTER as we go to extra holes.

  Or ... (as there are always more options in life) ... write down the names of the people you've played with ... after the game, post a message on each person's wall. I know , I know ... it's too much trouble. But so is holding a conversation with someone, rather than sending them text messages full of lol and omg ...

  The human race used to communicate, now it abbreviates ... or doesn't do either.

  But I like that tip Scott ... CTRL-A, CTRL-X, and CTRL-V + ENTER KEY ... nice ...

  Windows has a speech recognition feature built in, which is quite fun to mess about with if you have a microphone or headset available. You can control your PC with it and dictate emails etc. although I'm not sure if it would work to put text into WGT's chatbox, perhaps I'll try it later, although I always feel a bit silly talking to an inanimate object, lol.  : )

  Rather than all these work arounds can we get a few other people to say they would like this feature and see if WGT will at least respond to our suggestion.
