  I think there still is a glitch

  Here's what Birdwell and I did.

  Birdwell set up the first game

  We pushed 1 and 2

  after his drive, I forfieted the match

  He received 60 credits

  I gave up the 120 credits....90 for the holes and 30 for the fee

  2nd game I set up

  same thing, push 1 and 2, after my tee shot, Birdwell disconnected

  I received 60 credits in my account.

  Now, where are the remaining credits?

  The game client did tell me I won 9 skins

  But in reality, I was just credited (birdwell too) for the DC for 3 holes, and no refund back on the rest of the holes.

   

   

  11.17.11	Skins Challenge Game	Skins Challenge Amount	-90 cr
  11.17.11	Skins Challenge Game	Skins Challenge Win	180 cr
  11.17.11	Skins Challenge Game	Skins Challenge Fee	-30 cr
  11.17.11	Skins Challenge Game	Skins Challenge Amount	-90 cr
  11.17.11	Skins Challenge Game	Skins Challenge Fee	-30 cr

  I timed out and lost all the skins and credits, so it seems to be working in that you can't cheat and and disconnect or forfeit to reduce the amount of your credits lost.

   

  Only cost me 60cr to test all this.. lolz

  Never mind,

   

  Figured it out......

  I started with 780 cedits

  challenge and fees were 120

  left me with 660

  9 skins won gave me 180...back to 840 total.

   

  Okay, it works:)

  wait a sec you sure?  you should have only netted 60 after the second match, leaving you with 720. If you did well.. shh don't tell wgt.. lol

  I think it's right?

  Starting with 780 and netting 60 from the game would be 840.

  Let me work it out, lol!

  Start with 780

  Challenge fee 30

  Skin amount up 90

  Leaves 660 in account

  Win the 3holes on DC makes it 690

  Refund of remaining 6 holes (60cr) is 750

  Winning remaining 6 holes on the DC is 60

  Makes 810

  Hmmn...maybe challenge fee is returned to winner on DC or Forfeit?

   Would explain the 840 I have now.

  In effect, it did the same for you, right?

  All said and done you netted 60 from where you began, as did I.

  OK moral of the story...

  It's not worth playing skins with 2 players with the minimum bet. You can only stand to win 50% of what you are putting in, 60 cr. With 3 players you can at most win 150 - this is much better, but still not great as you will likely split more of the pot - same for 4 players.

  at 49 credits a hole, you can almost quadruple your money, for the same fee with 2 players. I think I will love this format with 3 or more players - 2 players it's just sort of meh...

  I don't think so...

  I think (99% sure) had we gone 4 holes and did the same thing, it would have netted 80 credits.

  Are you confusing me? or am I confusing me? lol. I lost 60 cr. you should have also. We split 2 games, we paid 2 fees a piece at 30cr a pop. Check again to see if you had some ready go pay out or something - otherwise there is something suspect about this.

   

  @ 10 credits a hole with 2 players, the pot is 180 credits. 90 of that is yours so even if you win 9 skins, you win only 90 credits. with the fee this is 60cr.

  Unsure, but all my RG payouts from yesterday posted.  Today;s account history was posted above.

  You should be a total of 60 credits down after our two tests...looks like both wgt fees.

  I had 900 even when we started, after my forfeit it went to 780 (90 + 30).

  After your DC on the 3rd hole netted me 60...I'm at 840...but don't understand the other 30 back (as I was adding them up)...just yet...lol...but out 60 total should be right.

  Bottom line though, looks like it's stable and a DC or forfeit won't screw the winner out of what they are ahead on...that's a good thing.
