    In all modesty, I was the first to successfully split the infinitive.


    That is one that I'm definitely going to have to "borrow." :-)

    No they stated that as part of the package , it would be nice if 2 sleeves of balls were included .As for a renewal price there wont be one , you will have to buy another pass at the full price . This is WGT they arent going to give up anything , but will take what they can .

    I doubt new ideas have thought a year in advance.  One week ahead is long term as it stands way I see it.

    I've read, and reread these 13 pages, and a number of questions still haven't been answered. The cost of membership is 18000 credits, with that being said, how many of us, would have shelled out that cash to play your first game?  How will wgt entice newbies to join?  Then after they tee up, find out that to enjoy this experience you need to purchase better equipment, more cash shelled out.  To get help to improve on our game, we turn to the more experienced players, either in the forums, or country clubs.  But how many of us will still be around, to help out? Country Clubs, once you attain certain levels, there is really no perks, so where then?  Get double the xps to end up no where fast?  Players won't play as much, there fore fewer ball sales, fewer cc passes purchased, for clashes, and turf wars, will that 18000 fee, more than cover all those loses?  Based on just a few players you might say yes, but how many thousands will say sorry no thanks and adios?  Will it be a win or lose proposition?  Friendships, through cc s,  will fall, thus maybe even cc s  failing, no more money coming in for cc competitions?  Imo, I feel this whole membership idea is just a hurry up, grab as much as you can, as fast as you can, and get the heck out of town. Just my nickle, but it's still my nickle in my pocket!

    Yeah but its a good nickle . I have always considered this to be just another brain fart from WGT . This is the standard norm for them and nothing more . I think its safe to say that the majority of us older players , arent going to kick out $180.00 dollars of hard earned money for it . Even players with a ton of credits from winnings wont bite either as there really isnt anything in the deal .

    In the end this will wind up becoming a clash award and nothing more . But anyone who wants one will be able to buy it unlike the gold putter .

    Just a voice from the old school minority if I may:

    I got into this game because I thought it was a great virtual GOLF experience.

    I did not get into this game for some non-related badge chase that has nothing to do with the above.

    Just me

     

    I suspect Jim  you're voicing for the vast majority - All this 'badge' does is identify the wearer as a confirmed and 'top tier' dupe. 

    Wear it with pride!  > <
