  Totally agree with Tom.  Awful.

  ” The re-design for club tournament displays is much worse.  Specifically, (1) if one enters a tournament one has to play immediately (WHY?), (2) dates for rounds in multi-player rounds no longer shown, (3) we can no longer see the brackets for bracket tournaments”

  Yo Champ,

  You can see from the issues stated there needs to be better testing prior to a release.  You should utilize a testing team from the WGT community as your internal staff doesn't play as regularly as CC members within the game.  It's like you serve the development team chemo IV cocktails for lunch and now they all have chemo brain.  WTF

  Also, it appears you guys are obviously utilizing, and actually listening to, a high tier player to prioritize your issue log.  I think most WGTers know who that person is and what a huge frigging mistake you guys are making with that decision.  Start catering to the majority...not the minority.

  Create a test URL that the community can bash for a while and get your feedback that way...prior to a release.  You would think your dev team and release PMs would think that way...and for whatever reason they don't.  Gotta love project managers who can't pm their way out of a paper bag.

  Nuf sed

  The next big item to improve this section is a nicer leaderboard.

  Seriously???  With all the bugs there are in the game and the next big thing is to have a nicer leaderboard???  You need a new project manager, get rid of the 5-year-old who is currently in that position!

  If what others are saying is true and you have to play a RG when you enter, that has only taken 11 years to actually put in place since I first mentioned it.  Unfortunately 99.9% of players don't seem to understand you won't miss out on playing in a RG of a certain type by not playing it immediately, there is always a RG of each type availabe to enter if you aren't already in one.  This change means one can enter a number of RG's of the same type without having to wait 12 hours for some morons to play their round!  The only good reason for allowing one to enter and not making them play immediately is COLLUSION!  I'm sure many friends play the same RG and then let each other know the scores so that they can decide if it is worth playing or not after they've entered.

  As a work around, you can still sign up for tournaments on line through your club. I hadn't noticed that this was an issue with cc tourneys, RGs, or any other type, but that is because I always sign up for tournaments on line. It has always seemed easier for me to see what I am doing than through the app. 

  Looking on line is also a work around for your other issues.

  Hopefully they will address these issues soon.

  Everytime I read one of these threads, I'm glad I made the decision to hang up my clubs.  I wasn't a great player, but enjoyed playing alternate for the social part. I can still post in here and PM folks to stay connected. The wgt forum is my de facto facebook .(less frustration as well...lol)

  Well brackets are completely messed up NOW!! Unless I'm missing something  But below is an example of what I NOW see from a 9 hole bracket I'm in...  

  Can't see an image of the "Actual" bracket so I have no clue who my opponent is? and even worse is I see nothing showing the amount of time left to play each round!!! Totally unnecessary update that has made something that was unbroke... NOW  BROKE!! 😡

  Here's the old view

  

  Now I only see the below 2 views

  

  

  How do I know who I'm playing and more importantly HOW MUCH TIME REMAINING IN THE PARTICULAR ROUND??

  Well I agree that  new design is fancy and not show  the time and whom you paired up and only show the leader board  but u can get  that info in ur profile page under the tournament like this . Hope this help those who play more bracket :)

  The Results section in My Tournaments is unusable for me! I get hundreds of results with mine not selected. I assume the All Results button is permanently active. So I will not be playing until the next update.

  I see that my first comment to this thread was deleted.  I doubt that I was too harsh in my observations.  I stated that you are forced to play the round upon entry in a Ready Go, and forced to play the first round in a Bracket tournament upon entry unless you enter those tournaments thru the web pages.  I also noted that I DO NOT consider this to be an improvement. Others have shared in this finding above.

  If WGT finds these comments to be objectionable, they can contact me directly.

  One might think that as a leader in earnings that my opinion might carry some weight.  I am not that delusional.

  Where is it right? The only place I can see brackets and time remaining now is on these web pages. I am in several and mine look just like the photos JD shared.

  If you go to a WGT Bracket (Not a CC one) and click on the Full Leaderboard button it will show the actual bracket, unlike the CC ones that currently show a leaderboard. It will not show you a Round Time Remaining unless it is a full bracket as the timer doesn't start until it is full. I did see a full one last night and it had the timer (I did not screen shot it though)

  JDGHOST:

  That IS a WGT Bracket Marchie? I have no idea in the 3 WGT brackets I'm currently in when each round ends?

  A WGT Bracket is a bracket on the WGT Tournaments page on the Launcher, not a CC one but the ones setup by WGT. Yes it is not working for the CC brackets and will only show the leaderbord. It will show the Bracket and timer once full if you hit the Full Leaderboard button on the WGT ones.

  EDIT ! One of the WGT brackets just filled up. This is from the Launcher (PCEA) ...
