Does anyone finish head-to-head rounds?

  In the last 3 days, I've played over 20 head to head rounds and not finished one because the other player just quits. WHAT THE ***!!!!

  Alternate play is the same....I played five games today and never got to finish even one game due to myself or others being disconnected......very frustrating.

  If you tiered up it would happen less. Just saying.

  I fail to see what tiering up has to do with disconnections. I am at legend tier, have a a pretty good computer, run Windows 7 64 bit, superfast broadband and use Maxthon browser for playing WGT. Oh and I clear my caches etc regularly, so what more do I need . 

  Since the last update, I too have had no end of disconnects which  I NEVER had before.

  Maybe a Cray supercomputer would do the trick !!

  My reply was to the OP. High level, low tier players always attract quitters.

  True...but 20 in a row?.....I think me and Fencer on side with this one.

  They are quitting. He said head to head. That is mobile play and disconnections are very rare on mobile but quitters aren't rare.

  it would'nt happen at our club, if it did the player would be reprimanded and if it occurred again he would be not be allowed to play in a competition , I believe WGT should have a 3 strike rule and unless justifying quitting be exempt from matches for a period of time.

  In life quitters normally are the first to complain instead of getting the job done, apart from that if all behaved with etiquette it would be a better world.

  flat out quitting. they forfeit because they hit a bad tee shot or hit in the brush (which I know is very hard to get out of). I just don't get it. how are you going to get better if you don't try to convert a bad shot?  very frustrating....
