5 Hours of wasted golf & money

  This may get me banned , but it needs to be said.

  5 hours ago I started to play Alt Sht golf with the intention of getting to Level 72, about 4 - 5 games if complete.  I played 9 games of which 8 were incomplete through DC'ing or whatever. I played a solo stroke in Par and then continued with A Sht ...3 more games only 1 complete the rematch was killed after 8 holes. Now my opponenets  did not DC so WGT is responsible for sure.

  That last hour of playing got me12 Xpoints and wore out my 250 c balls.

  I am begginning to feel ripped off.

   

  Any comment WGTIcon ?

   

  Cheers

  Just one question!

  Why do you feel the need to inform us of this. (care factor)

  I would agree that lately it seems the load times as well as game freezes and overall problems of whatever sort seem too be on a much more frequent pace than before. Yesterday I simply gave up because I tried playing alt matches for over 2 hour's and wasnt able to complete one single game due to freezes , disconnects and unacceptable load times and today was more or less the same thing. My pc is optimized like it should be and my internet connection is fine as well so I dont need to hear all the usual crapola in regards to that... something has definately changed for the worse. I finally just got sick of it and left like im about to do now. Cudo's to the great job all the movers and shakers at WGT Central are doing back in Queers-Ville, USA ... your screwin it up royal!

  Hi

  I am not really sure what to tell ya. I can tell you that it is not on wgt's end. Perhaps it;'s something between wgt connection and your own. I don't know. As you have read here on forums, once a while things happen but if this was en masse, then there would be 100's or 1000s posts a day, but there are not.

  I am sorry you had trouble playing but, not mujh I can do about it:(

  Not sure if relevant , but I think so..... I got on rather early this morning Noticed immediately that chrome had added a "Skype" icon , top right , in between my McAffee site advisor and my "Customize Chrome" icons. Attempted to play a quick blitz. Game ran very poor and was dis-connected on 8'th hole. Logged right back on , cleared flash and browser caches. Closed browser. Logged back on  (after having to sign back in of course)  and now all is well.  Coincident ?  Whatever...running fine now !

  Why on earth do you play with random people? You're simply asking for disconnections. Get some friends and play with them.

  100s and 1000s do not complain because the typical repsponse given from WGT is that the complainers computer is not optimzed correctly for the game. I personally have complained about lost balls sitting right out in the open .

  I play every day, 8 to 10 games. Have not missed a day of several completed rounds in 6 months yet today i only get credit for 5 days played.

  Does this sound like my system in at fault

  No comment, it is totally irrelevant.
