InConsistent Daily Pts or missing Pts ?

  Anyone else notice this happening as of late regarding daily Xpts?

  I know we get 2 passes per day. 1 pass to start a new day and another 12 hrs later.  And The points increase as the number of consecutive days played increases, etc.

  But some passes I receive full pts while other passes a mere 12, 59  or 120 pts, etc. for the CC ? No set number, but rather in consistent and at times seems like a random number.

  Question's?

  1. Should we get the same point value for each pass?

  2. Is there different point structure for the game being played?

    ie; match play, stroke, alt shot, blitz, CTTH, single player CC tournament

  3.  Do we still get full value if you only play a single hole from the Courses/Play hole option?

  4. And will admit, There are also times when I have no pass and it seems to give me a larger value?

  5. Should I send this to Support and have them look into it?

  If this matters , it seems to worsen the day after a shut down for maintenance and then a new CC Clash begins?

  Thank you in advance for anyone hopefully answering the 5 questions above or any input you may have.

  TjW11:

  I know we get 2 passes per day.

  Nitpickingly: You only get one pass 12 hours after you have used the last pass in your stack.

  ad 1:
  Nope. CC XPs correspond to your personal XPs for the game you played.

  E.g. 14 in total for a CTTH, 200 + strokes + award boni for a nine hole tournament.

  When you play every day, the additional CDP bonus exceeds every other number, but only once per day!

  ad 2:
  Same structure, but different basic points for different games. One point per stroke. In MP games, the number of players finishing has a good impact.

  ad 3:
  You get "full value" for a one hole game. IIRC, 10 basic XPs + strokes.

  ad 4:
  You get personal XPs also without a pass, but not more than with a pass.

  ad 5:
  Nope - it's o.k.

  ad (6):
  XPs are not affected by maintenance.

  I suggest that you look a tad more intensive to the tabs which are shown after the games - it explains a lot.

  And, as a general advice: Don't buy CC passes. NEVER!

  1. No, the first pass give`s full point`s, second give y less point`s

  2.

  3. Just a few hundred less Point`s

  4. Maybe when y play with 2 or more player`s

  5. Yes.

  Hope this will help you.

  Should of also added what we think we know.

  It also depends on the level of the CC a player belongs to. So that the multiplier for the pts changes and increases as the a CC moves to a higher level.

  Al an peoch, thank you for replying.

  But I can say , that if I play lets say...

  a stroke round  with pass and a stroke round later in the day on the next pass.  And then I do the same the next day. I get a different amount of points each and every time, and sometimes only a handful ( 9 pts ). So there must be a problem with my account or most likely others?

  It always was the same amount on each pass before updates a couple of months ago.

  Thanks again -

  Not at all, only the CDP bonus was fixed at 880 from the sixth day on. Now it starts slower, but it continues to rise from day to day. You see it best in the center of the PC game window.

   

  I didn't mean to explain it in total, but yes, there are bonus % which differ between CC levels.

  Concerning the differing numbers, I can only repeat: Look at the XP tabs at the end of the rounds!

  No problem about explaining in full. With that in mind, I should have added:

  I DO look thru the center of the window when the pts get calculated. And Do NOT see my pts or the CC Xpts being added properly.

  ie, Once a day I see I get the # consecutive days played. And sometimes get full and still sometime only get a mere handful.. which never happened before. teh next pass in 12 hrs I sometimes get full and sometimes again, only a handful.

  Thats why recently I tried playing the exact same type of round on each pass, 2 x a day.

  Sorry if I didn't get your point until now.

  TjW11:

  In general, this is true. You (and your CC) get more points than indicated.
  First off, the points cannot be the same, because the bonus § always differ.
  Two, the XPs indicated are the basic points AFAIK, but the bonus % are added to the accounts correctly.

  TjW11:

  Once a day I see I get the # consecutive days played. And sometimes get full and still sometime only get a mere handful.. which never happened before. teh next pass in 12 hrs I sometimes get full and sometimes again, only a handful.

  That sounds weird and for once I don't have any explanation.

  It might be helpful if you get into detail. At which time do you start the game (play the first shot), which type and which are the individual XPs indicated in the end?

  Possible what you are seeing is this.  Only when pass is used for the first game of the day will you get the most  points.

  If for some reason, you said no, do not use pass on the first game.  When you used it on the second or whatever game of the day it will give you a smaller amount of points.

  Alot of times if playing an unlimited for my first game, I may not use the pass as I may restart the round(thus losing the pass entirely, and getting no points for the pass).  If you do that you will get nowhere near the amount of points when you use the pass, in a later game.

  Right!

  Wrong, in the current arrangement.

  Since eternity, we have received the shot XPs immediately, plus the personal and CC percentages.

  Nowadays, the CDP XPs are awarded with the first shot, so, if you quit after that, you have secured the streak plus the CDP XPs plus the percentages related.

  FYI - this below came back from WGT support. It is in reference to the number of points earned depending on the type of game played....

  " WGT Support ... "2. You will receive more experience depending on the amount of holes that you play. For example, you will receive more experience if you play a Full 18 than if you play a 9 hole game."

  Didnt really answer my problem or state there is a problem....Hoping they can go back and look at my account and see if something is wrong.

  Will update if I hear anything more?
