  just finished game I started earlier in the day. at end there were no bonus points for continuous days of play. does your day start from 12 midnite to 12 midnite of the day your home is located or what time zone is used to get the continuous days of credit? My concern is I have had over 40 days,I think, of contiuous play to help me rise to higher levels am I to lose this because I started earlier in the day but finished later that evening?

  For whatever reason, WGT decided to base the consecutive days played on UTC time.  So...

  Eastern US would be 7:00PM to 6:59PM

  Central US would be 6:00PM to 5:59PM

  Mountain US would be 5:00PM to 4:59PM

  Pacific US would be 4:00PM to 3:59PM

  I, like many others, lost out on the consecutive days played bonus at one time or another because of this misunderstanding.  Hope this helps, Good Luck.

  What Mem said.

  Only thing to add.

  For consecutive days points, WGT uses the time stamp from when you finish the game.
