  Replays are gone.. 

  Gee, another downtime, another bug - what a surprise (NOT!!)  The greedy, incompetent twerps @ Glitch Tour HQ strike again.  

  Can't help but wonder how long (if ever) before they are working properly again.  :-(

  Usually its good manners to say thanks, least i was taught that .

  Wow Electro....so quick...... it's only been messed up for nearly 3month.

  Now it is strongly rumoured that the new treat for us all for Christmas is....wait for it....YEP...Christmas Pudding, placed atop the hole flags....if you hit the flag the pudding will explode....showering the lucky punter in gifts....yep a dozen FREE starter balls....wow man, I can hardly wait....

  What a ridiculous suggestion.............the caveat is to receive the lucky prize you will need to bet a minimum 100cr every time.....just like the HIO contest.

  Lets hope the team of first graders working in the "ideas" team do not see this suggestion....

  Good to know Electro, and great to hear our User Reports are being noted, however, we still haven't heard from WGT about the Downtime changes/upgrades/updates/new stuff. What does it take to bring us out of the dark???

  WGT claims that it has MILLIONS of users playing the game...(and if you believe that, I have a bridge I'd like to sell ya) and true enough, the game is brilliant with it's attention to detail and graphics, but they failed to include one small detail when developing the game. They forgot to include a testing platform for their engineers so that when changes are made, they can find the bugs and fix them BEFORE RELEASING THE UPDATE TO THE PAYING CLIENTS! 

  So I guess we actually have millions of Quality Assurance employees who report bugs and issues after each downtime. Well done everyone!

  WE ARE THE 99%!!!

  Just a thought.

  I have some rudimentary coding skills that go way back to the days of xts with no added memory. It was common back then to use memory variables for multiple tasks in order to save the little memory available. Put that together with poor documentation, and the potential for a minor change one place to affect others is inevitable.

  Remember when WGT messed with the wind and rough VEM, the putting green dots were skewed? That was when I first thought of this.
