  I'm finding way too many glitches to deal with for 15 second shot timer. Before 18 is over some type of delay due to glitches has cost me 2 to 3 penalty strokes every time. I'm not going to go over them all because they have all been mentioned on here before. However my last round was ended with a very frustrating bug that almost cost me to put fist through the screen. I was -4 putting for birdie on 8th and a message comes up that the tourney is no longer active ? wtf ?…what a waist of my friggin time this game is becoming.Very frustrating when the round of my life on merion gets bugged away. I have the screenshot but have no idea how to place it in post.

  Good point - it's like discons killing MP games :(

  Which kind of game?

  Tournaments end on the deadline - your mistake unless it happened due to a WGT fault.

  On top of the "Help" forum, there is "how to post a scorecard" - good read for your Q.

  There is one other thing that will cause the"This tournament is no longer active" error message and that is a deliberate attempt to cheat. Starting a  Mobile only tournament on mobile then trying to play it on a computer on the web. In the almost 7 years I have been here I have never seen that message caused by a glitch.

  Who the frik do you think you are accusing the poor guy of cheating???  He was only trying to find answers.  Just beacuse YOU the mightiest of WGT authority have not seen it happen in your 7 years of being here, doesn't stop other gliches happening to others.  heck it was only a few rounds ago my avatar played a shot whilst beeing invisible. Anything goes on this game.

  I can get that error to come up by selecting a stroke play game and, without choosing a course, click the tee off button. If the random course selector picks one of the trugolf courses, ie one that has a green fee, then the error pops up.
