  Hi all, 

  I play the mobile game in a country club mostly in RIO for "Call to Arms" and "TurfWar" games. 

  The average number of players shown as active in RIO ranges from 120 - 160 during daytime MST down to 14 to 20 by 1am 2am MST. 

  Today after the 6/9 - 6/10/20 overnight wgt maintenance & "minor" system updates the number of players shown active on RIO has ROCKETED UP TO 1,250 TO 1,490 at now approx. 6:45pm MST 6/10/20.

  DOES ANYONE KNOW A WGT person here in the forums who knows if the pervious number were WAAY Low or if the current numbers are 100 times or 1,000 % to high???

  Anyone have a reason or explanation for HUGE change in numbers playing at any given time?

  Thanks,

  JohnKokopelliRidg

  I noticed this too , when Chelsea would have had 100-200 players now has 2k+ , seems bizarre , maybe something to do with the pc players now playing a mobile version , prior to flash changes that are constantly discussed . Perhaps a cross platform game now ?

  Noticed the same. Where there were hundreds before there are now literally thousands. Also I noticed the level of competition has increased; all of my games yesterday and today were with players with averages around 60 to 61, some in the 50’s. Even more curious, all matches at all courses were in high winds for the past two days. And (this is new to me) the grid is gone on CTTH tiebreakers. Used to always display for me before.

  Noticed it too. So which ones are the real numbers, hundreds or thousands? IMO there's NO WAY over ten thousand people logged in simultaneously and playing the coin room games. Absolutely no one of my surroundings plays this game although many of them are golf aficionados IRL. (Well, there was one but he gave up due to an incident. Never mind... A very long story.)
