    It's nothing special Nan, just a way for the cynically challenged to support the ever increasing notion that to cheat is actually the way forward in this, what once was a beautiful game.

    I think recent events speak volumes in what we all have suspected and have now had confirmed, even unto the very perpetrators themselves entering pleas of innocence disguised with outrage and self righteous indignation over accusations that are not only correct, but actually very accurate and perhaps a little too cutting to be swallowed whole.

    We all should feel a collective shame that we are a part of this and by our very silence and acquiescence have allowed it to reign unchecked for so long. Hard wonder however, when to do anything about it brings the ultimate penalty to any one fool enough to suppose honesty and integrity will ever be enough to protect the innocent from permanent and irrevocable bans. Meanwhile, the low detritus who continue deception unabated, remain here free to continue their sad pillage of morality.

    I concur Lizzie, this used to be a fun game, not anymore. My playing on this game has gone down 80%, save money too. When you shoot a 30 for 9 holes and don't even make the top 100 its pretty bad. I really don't complain about it much anymore as it has no effect on WGT. I suspect this game to be in beta for 10 years.

    I'm sure Bouvet Island just has superior internet connectivity which reduces the loading and meter issues...thus allowing even the casual Bouvetian...Bouverage...Bouvetite...Bouveticker- Groovy-Bouvy.....whatever---to sign on for their first ever game and shoot such splendid scores.  All of Bouvet should be proud of their WGT stars.

    Bouvet Island is the most remote island in the world.  It is uninhabited.  Yet there are 116 WGT members registered as living on Bouvet Island.

    What's wrong with that picture?

    Brazilians accidentally clicking the country above Brazil maybe? None of the Bouvetians appear to be doing anything untoward, or much of anything at all for that matter. :)

    Really?  Well, if you will check the scores for the Week 40 Unlimited for hacks, you will find 4 players from Bouvet Island, all of whom are in the top 8, all of whom joined the same day (Sept. 21st), and all of whom shot a 30 or 31 on their first round ever here, many the day they joined.  The four of them have a collective 81 holes (Nine 9 hole rounds) and have shot, respectively, 30-29-30 by player one, 32-30-32 by player two, 30 by player three, and 31-31 by player four... if you are keeping track, those are averages of 59.33, 62.67, 60, 62.  Collectively, they have a 61 average.  The highest level any of them have attained is 16, which means there has been no power practicing either.

    Still think there is nothing 'untoward' going on there?

    Did I mention that player one won the week 39 9 hole Unlimited for hacks?  On his first round ever?  Or that they are currently 1st, tied for 2nd, and tied for 6th in this weeks 9 hole Unlimited?
