Get those computers sorted folks. :-)
I do not know why people keep using the excuse of other people computers. Mine has been working fine and dandy and all of sudden once a day the meter jumps. It is not the computers or browsers or cleaning out the cache. I know from first hand experience the cleaning out cache is just a faith that people believe that it actually does something, because it has never or ever made a dang difference to speed or anything to a browser. For years since 1998, I have never cleaned cache and have been fine with browsers with no slow downs even with dialup times.
I think it is just a waste of time to clean cache. So many sites use the excuse to clean cache so they won't fix the issue on their own side. Especially this example: they updated the site on 5/1/2012. The search for a game to play was working even to show nothing, but give you an option to search again. Well, right after that update it never gave that option again, it just kept spinning for hours with no response.
Guess what WGT did? Exactly tell me to clean cache and say it was my computer. So frickin stupid to the point I actually thought it could be. I went as far as fresh install of OS. No change. They would not listen to me or others feedback at all, just make more excuses and say clean cache. Well, after I gave up finally to not post anymore or say anything about it to them via contact message for bug. Guess what happened two weeks later?
It was back to normal after another update they did. Just because they messed up does not mean to make everyone else, especially there so called visitors the blame of the issue. This whole time I was right.
So I don't clean my cache and the browser and game works fine. So I would like to find who ever came up with cache cleaning and fire them or shoot them for the stupid thing in the first place. You can all argue that it makes a difference, but it has never made any difference to me.
Oh, as for losing balls, its another excuse for wgt to make money easier. I believe that they mess the meter on purpose just to get people to get more balls. I am not saying they have someone sitting in a basement and hit a switch when someone is playing and mess them up.
I am saying that they could have a developer that programmed the meter to do at certain times to get people to buy more balls. It is not hard to on purpose make a glitch and keep it for their own expense. Proving it is another thing.
Just saying usually if they are good to their customers and not cheating them, they would probably not have so many negative threads on this forum. If the ball thing does not get better, I might not buy any more expensive balls again.
