  JasCooper:

  Since passes renew after the game starts, it's not a big deal to wait until after the day change to start a game.

  It might not be for you, but it is for some of us.  Now I have to wait until after 8 PM EDT to start playing and that puts a dent in my evening for sure.  Whereas before I could start at 7:30 PM andfinish a few minutes after 8 PM.  Some days I don't have time until 11 PM to start playing.  Just makes it more difficult.  It will be better when daylight savings time is over though. 

  Thanks for your reply Champion!

  Well then, if those extra ten minutes puts a dent in your evening, just wait 23 hours and finish before 8:00pm. There has certainly been a problem in receiving CDP points and having to restart the process from scratch to build back up to 880 points. 

  But the difference between being able to start before the day change or not is minor compared to the basic issue and WGT's slow and inadequate response to fixing the issue. I'm waiting for them to add several thousand XP points to my and my Country Club's account, which I doubt will ever happen.

  That's why. It's already been confirmed a number of times that multi games don't register. Playing solo rounds with a red check mark and a pass gets the full compliment of XPs as well as the CDP extension.

  Played a solo CC tournament this morning, first round of the day, with a pass, and no CDP points...

  It was, sir, yes.

  I didn't even know this was a "thing" until this morning - I don't come in to the main forums that often - so when it happened, I came a-looking.

  It's not THAT big a deal, obviously, it's just frustrating that yet another glitch has found its way in to the system...

  (well, that and the fact that I offered two sleeves of balls to the person in our CC who came closest to naming the date I make L98 - this is gonna make a mess of that if it's not sorted soon...)

  Having the same problem with xp points &  days played. when you save & quit to continue later I can reenter round but after finishing will get no xp or days played advance.

  I concur. No CDP for a tournament game with pass, left hanging over midnight GMT.

  I received CDP XPs plus green check mark with the next game (one hole practice), and thanks to the Clash Event I had a new CC pass to use.

  Refer to this thread for a few (86) general thoughts on WGT's modifications.

  I foun hat I get the CDP bonus awarded at the moment I start my 1st round of the day, not at the finish. When the 1st hole of a tourney is loaded, the points are already in my account. Not sure what happens if one starts the game before the "new day" starts and finishes after, though. I also have no idea, if the CDP points remain, if I don't complete the round.

  I found that starting a solo game after the new day starts you will get your CDP  XPs.  I do not know if that is the case with multi player games.

  Interesting!

  It comes close to a mod's reply ?in this thread? which was a tad confusing to me.

  If the CDP is awarded at the start of the game, it will of course not be available on a start before the new CDP day, and it will not be awarded when the game is only continued/finished on the new day - explanation for my report which you quoted.

  In this case we'll have to wait for the new CDP day, start a game with a pass, and the 880 should immediately be awarded to player + CC. And once they have been awarded, the points should stay in the accounts regardless of discons or quitting.

  From other reports here it seems as if CDP boni or checkmarks aren't awarded with all types of games - still some work for WGT.
