  Why, after playing 192 consecutive days has my total restarted at ONE, I have NOT missed a day not playing, it has done this before, I PLAY EVERY DAY. So why, WGT ,have you reset my count.

  It is my morning ritual, I play before going to work at 5.30am ish BST ,monday to friday and as soon as i get up at weekends. SO i DONT UNDERSTAND, please respond

  Please don't take this personal:

  There's no game registered on 14th and 15th - what about that? Nobody knows what happened because it's a private thing, and the company doesn't react.

  Only mitigation is that it did not happen at 1000+ days, and the only remedy is to start anew, keeping a keen eye on the green check mark.

  You might also ask yourself what the CDP number means to you. Unless you strive for the bonus XPs, it may appear as just another means to hook players to the game(?)

  Have fun!

  I don't let my CD's go above 60 days, in an attempt not to look like a no-life sad act.

  It has to be said - I'm fooling no-one with this ploy.

  You realise that you need to 'finish', not just play?

  Regarding the date gaps -- and there are plenty more of them as you scan down the list - they don't mean anything if the play was a practice round or a '1-hole' etc...

  I PLAY EVERY DAY

  SO i DONT UNDERSTAND

   

  

  Understanding Consecutive Days Played, you need to know three things.

   

  1. UTC timezone and how it relates to your local time.

  2. Next Day In is the countdown to the start of your day in local time.

  3. What the green check-mark or the red exclamation-mark mean.

   

  To determine went your day starts, add the countdown timer to the local time when you first load the game. In my example, my day starts 10 hrs and 39 mins. which is 6:00 PM my time. So screenshot time (7:21am + 10:39 = 18:00 hrs or 6:00PM)

   

  Seeing a green check-mark, I know that I will only be credited for another CDP after I finish a game (any kind of game) after 6:00 PM my local time. Had it been a red exclamation-mark I should finish a game before 6 PM to be credited a CDP.

   

  So it is conceivable to get 2 CDP in a 24 hour period or reset your CDP to one day, if you play at the right or wrong time.

  You can get 2 days in as little as 5 minutes.   My day changes at 8pm,  I could play one single hole at 7:55pm  finish before 8:00pm and then play another single hole and get the next day out of the way.

  This has happened to me TWICE. First time at 375 or so consecutive days and again today at over 100 concecutive days and i am 100% sure that i did not screw up.  i'm getting really pissed at WGT. think it's just about time to find a different on line game to waste my time on.

  Coincidence that these threads always seem to appear right after the clocks change?

  I think you nailed it. Players forget that now their day resets an hour earlier than before!

  Actually I think it there may also have been a bit of a WGT Glitch possibly. Coincidentally we had a CC free bracket going at that time, and when the clocks changed it threw out our round timer. The day had only been going 3 hours of the 24 hours, and suddenly the round was closed out, the one single player who got his round in early was notified of his win, and progress through to the semi-final. The other 3 players who had not played yet were all shown as WD.

  Perhaps when the clocks changed - there is something glitchy in the WGT "day timer function", which may affect both the CDP counter and the Bracket timer??

  I'm sure it is true that rolling the clocks forward an hour would contribute to some players forgetting to get their round in, where their normal time to play happens to be near the end of the WGT day --- but our observation of the bracket glitch might be related I think.
