mrshazam: I have maintained and voiced my opinion that this game is created by cheaters for cheaters...Learned skills,,,amount of time played,,,$$ balls or clubs are off-set by influences outside of my game...OF course,,,I am constantly rebuffed....PUT THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING....WGT is tired of me calling a Spade a Spade...So how do they get rid of the truth....I have gone from winning over 60% of my matches under all the formats,,,to not being able to win one....Been well over 5 days and 30 matches since I last won...
Dude you're off your rocker. I promise MrWGT doesn't sit up there in San Fran pushing a button to screw all people who criticize this game. If so, I wouldn't be able to break 100. I have openly skewered and BBQ'd WGT for some very poor decisions, inability to fix bugs, and poor customer service, yet have probably won upwards of 750 Ready Gos.
Lou hit the nail on the head. You didn't lose skill because you frankly don't have it yet. With a smooth meter this game is quite simply....well simple for a handful of players like me who have dedicated WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too much time here. I readily admit I have no life and am a total addict and that's what it takes to be mentioned with the best. 2 major knee rebuilds in 3 years have taken me off the real course so this is my only outlet for competition which is the reason I'm here. Some play for fun while others play here to fill a deep drive to compete.
So make your choice, have fun and enjoy your game or dedicate about 5 hours a day to learning every inch of every course. If I were you I'd just play for fun. I'm at total burn out stage now and am a couple more credits from another gift card and walking away. My guitar has been quite lonely the last year and a half. :)
Just please please please give the cheating stuff a rest. Yes there are some people of questionable moral character who have opened multiple accounts and a handful who have used some software (and got caught) but I'll bet dollar against a million it's not the elite players who win most of the tourneys.
With all that said, please keep speaking your mind but have some validation for your assertions.
