   And 2 were finished on 1st hole.

  Seems like wgt is in dire straits businesswise.

  Unless current playing conditions ARE the business model.

  What does this mean.."And 2 were finished on 1st hole." I'm not really a beginner, but I haven't done anything but golf the courses I'm already allowed on....

  Yeah know just what you mean . Its 12:29 where Im at and have been trying to connect and play since around 9:00 am this morning . Keep getting disconnected and the unexpected error message or its the load manager .

  It never fails they can always add new things to the pro shop but cant fix the game . Oh well I will accommodate them by not playing . Saves on the wear and tear on the balls and gives me other things to do .

  This game could be as good as Halo or Grand Theft Auto if WGT would get their heads out of their behinds and actually fix the issues with it . For some reason they just cant seem to see the forest for the trees .

  What ever it is it must be on your end. I just played the first round in this weeks premium multi-round tournament with out even the slightest problem. And not only did the game work extremely well, I played better than normal and as of this time I am tied for 2nd place with several players including Priestess with a score of - 6 29.

  just because you didn't experience problems does not mean it is on HIS end.  we have always known some players experience problems while others do not. It is most assuredly on WGT's end.  Played  since the update and routinely get booted from the game with an exclamation point  "  !  "....meter is smooth as silk and computer is running great....still get booted

  In fact, their programming has such a bad memory leak, I couldn't complete a round without my memory tripling in size. The camera views swapping back and forth on each player made the memory steadily increase in value to the point my meter got stutter. Game normally run under 350mb, while lately it acrues to over a 1000 mb so have to clean the memory quite often to reset it.  cleanmem.html

  When I get the unexpected error after a disconnect that is not on my end and when I get the load manager message that also is not on my end . The game has been acting up for the last 4 hours for me and none of it is on my end .

  I'm getting the exclamation mark at well.  Now that may be my side BUT when my games finishes on the first green after 4 players have played 2 shots each and the end message comes up with the scores and pictures and says "The game ended in a draw"  Well that is certainly not me.  

   

  Another game, I was on 2nd hole and I was classed at the winner as I has one shot less when the game finished. 

   

  I think I will just have a break for a few months.  It's such a great game - but I'm afraid it is flawed right now - not for the first time!

  Haven't tried to play Alt. yet today, but yesterday we had 4 discos an' 2 lefty avatars by the 8th hole ( we took turns going to the lobby in an attempt to finish.) With each team @ 2 disco's each, when the 5th one hit, I did the honorable thing an' and committed Hara- Kiri with my putter. Worst part is we were all square, an' havin' a good time, even with all WGTs' issues. "Our end" my *** , clear this an' browse that, WGT, pffft.

  Doc :(

  I've been trying to finish a game of alt shot for 3 hours and not one yet, it seems to me that wgt can install stupid sounds, but not capable of fixing  the bigger problem of disconnections, this game used to be fun to play, now all we do is fight to finish a game, takes all the enjoyment out of playing.
