    Hi Fluff

    May I top you

    Beth Page #6 this happened twice. Behind the pin, just short of the rough their is a spot that refuses to accept any club except the driver. I got stuck their, took 4 swings with the putter, and then decided to end the round. Took the driver out of frustration, and it moved. i did report this to WGT and since the report, this has not happened

    Hey Fluff,

    Make sure to right-click and "Submit this problem to WGT" when something like that happens.  When you submit a bug it flags your shot.  We can then single it out, take a look at what happened, examine the rules applied to the drop and see if anything needs to be adjusted.

    Thanks =)

    Niv,

    If you don't catch it right away, can the user still submit bugs after the screen changes to the next shot? Are you able to go backwards and see the shot in question if needed, or is too late if the submission isn't placed on the same shot page?

    I'm only asking cause I've had stuff happen at times right at the end of the shot, and was not quick enough on the draw, lol.

    When that happens you should put "please look at the last shot" in the first line of your description and then describe the error with as much detail as possible.  If you can include an exact time (preferably from a cellphone or computer that is regularly synced) that would help as well.  A late report is better than no report. =)

    Fluffton what were you before that shot, probably 5 or 6 over par anyway, so it didnt really matter

    Could we hit "Replay Last Shot" in the menu and submit a bug report from that?
