    Hi there,

    I am not one to readily complain, however this, I feel, must be brought to your attention.

    I live in New Zealand and during the week I can only play after work (5pm local time). I do this every day in order to gain my exp points and access new clubs available at higher levels.

    Three days ago I started my usual game after 5pm and all of a sudden I get disconnected due to maintenance.  This maintenance was not mentioned anywhere I can recall (usually we even get a reminder window to save our games), therefore was unable to finish my game and get the 880 exp points due to my playing streak.  The next day I proceeded to log in and finish that game and, to add insult to injury, I realized I actually have lost my playing streak and now have to re-start from scratch.

    Now, I don't want to go down the road of being a good customer, spending real money here etc., after all you can assess that easily enough on your own, but I would respectfully ask for what I believe I have earned through loyalty and playing consistently. 

    Please re-instate my continuous playing streak as it was not stopped through my own fault - once again something you can easily assess. In fact if you could award my lost points for the last 3 days I would be grateful.  In return I will get closer to spend more money for the R11 driver - fair deal I'd say.

    I know you are a busy lot and I respect that and financially support your venture, all I ask is for some fairness in return.

    Regards
    Sanco

    Hi.

    I am sorry ths has happened to you, but there is nothing I can do to reinstate the streak. I believe the system tracks it and there is no way for us to change it

    sorry,

    I dunno Icon.. I'm sure y'all can think of something as a bit of recompense...  say a coupla sleeves of his favorites or something?  He does present a very compelling story without whining and crying like most of our friends around here would have...

    Just my 2¢...

    Hi Icon, I wouldn't expect you to be able to apply such changes from your position of moderation, but I would be grateful if you could talk to the powers that be and see if they could.

    @ Snaike - Thank you for your kind words Snaike, I do appreciate them. However I do not want gifts of balls, I am happy to pay for them, just what I believe I had earned that's all.

    Please Icon advise them to look for my mail which I had posted 3 days ago but was never even acknowledged by WGT.

    I have received this message from WGT admin:

    Hi Sanco,

    I'm sorry that there wasn't a notice associated with recent downtime, and that it affected you so dramatically.  Unfortunately it's not possible for me to manually add XP to your account or to reinstate a CDP streak, but what I have done is to add an XP Boost to your account (it is active now) which should give you enhanced XP earnings for the next 7 days allowing you to make up for any lost XP....and more if you're persistent :)

    Hope that helps!

    Well, credit where credit's due. Thank you WGT and Icon for supporting me with this. I know it's a workaround but it shows you are listening. Thank you again.
