  very annoying i played 6 games of alternate and  finished 1.they need too penalize them  in like a way if they quitt 3 games in a day,block them  from the site for 3 days,that soon sort the problem out.  Ok i here u say well some  people may have too leave!  i  know they do but they never say why they  just leave.Hope somethings done soon.

  I totally agree.

  Since yesterday, I entered 4 games.

  Someone quit in all 4 games, causing 2 of the games to "lock up" and end when we only had one or two holes left!!!!

   

  WGT really needs to penalize these players somehow. Either take away a number of credits each time they quit, and/or lock them out for a number of days when they quit x number of times within a certain time period.

   

  I had really great scores when they quit and locked up the game.

   

  Also, I notice that some with good averages quit when they know if they finish the game they would make it a little worse. That's a joke.

   

  This really needs to stop!!!!

  I agree with penalizing quitters, but lately I am wondering if that's not the case.  As I have been getting WGT errors in the middle of games, as have a lot of other people from what I hear.

  True. Sometimes there are people with a terrible round.

  Guess if they quit at the last hole, that would be acceptable innit

  If they'd wait until it was someone else's turn before quiting, at least we could continue playing. But quitting on their turn ends the game.

  Oh well.

  Not all people quit on games mate so that would be unfair, recently i have had a few occasions when the screen freezes on me and i cant do anything about it. On 1 altternate game in 4 holes the people in the game froze it 5 times.

  Twilly  something can be done,and alternate game  isnt that old. I  also noticed a  lot of games have been stopped by  wgt with Unexpected Error,please close the window and try again.ive had this  problem  for a while now off n  on.

  Does alternate game really go on your stats?  average etc,if so,i can understand why these (bleep oles) quit,notice its  mainly masters etc,they dont want too upset there  precious average do they on this Virtual golf  internet  game.   :O)

   

  Come on Wgt sort these problems out  please,for  the Paying Customers.they do have rights dont they ?
