    Happened two times in last several days, always when playing Alternate shot game type (which may not be significant information for this type of bug)

     

    Symptoms:

    When another player was on hit, I watched his timer. It counted down to zero, the player didn't hit. After reaching zero, nothing happened (no warning or penalty message). I tried to click on player name to show his/her statistics, the window opened, but statistics (graphs and numbers were missing). When I wento to equipment, the cells where clubs should be shown were clear. I understood that I was disconnected or something like that. My internect connectivity was NOT broken, all other network-related apps were able to communicate.

     

    My actions:

    I closed the window (gameclient) and started again from the browser. I was suggested to continue the match, I accepted, all players reconnecgedand we were placed back to the abandoned hole. After loading the hole again, the situation was the same. No opponent's (or partner's) movement, timer on 0, nothing happened. In case I was on hit, I was unable to hit, because some of the other players have not the game full loaded (the "hourglass" animation behind their name) was "rotating". I decided to reconnect again (close the popup game client and start again from browser).

     

    Actual result:

    After several attempts to reconnect, I was given a message that the match is over. Don't know whether any of the players forfeited the game, or the WGT system simply cancelled the game. Of course, NO XP points were granted. However, my "Consecutive days played" indicator was green - this match was counted.

     

    Expected result:

    No XP points should be granted and the match should be evaluated as forfeited, cancelled, errorneous or something like that.

     

    My system:

    Windows7 64bit, Firefox 4.0.1, cable internet connection (30MBit/s) to wifi router, notebook connected to router via in-built wifi (G - 54MBit/s).

    Yesterday I noticed a very similar bug (already submitted through right-click feature). I was playing an 18-hole match game against a friend (online). Unfortunately, he was disconnected by the WGT server (confirmed later via private msg) during the 16th or 17th hole. Surprisingly, I've received XP points bonus for finishing a 18-hole game.

    Looks like there's a problem evaluating the reason why a match has ended. The server often considers a game to be completed successfully (see my post above), however it didn't.
