    There may be more to what transpires between WGT, and your game, than is dreampt of in your philosophy, pdb1 .

    VEM :)

     

     

     

    Oh really ? Just what might that be . We would all like to know to what extent or if any at all , at what level it starts ,

    Does it effect players at higher levels less because it is not needed as much since the variables in the game keep them from getting low scores already . ( above post seems to think it should effect everyone the same ) . I don't think it does . I don't think it even needs to be applied to anyone above T L level .(if they use it at which we know they do ) .

    Is it set to variate more at average 58 then at average 62 .

    Is it individually monitored to alter individuals who are selected for whatever reasons ( many opinions on that one ) .

    For instance , a player makes an eagle , the player insists that wgt will get him back with the VEM for that one . 

    I always laugh at that . I'm sure that isn't so . In fact I would assume that if WGT was even aware that that player made an eagle they would be happy for him .

    What I'm getting at it is that there is a lot of rumor and conjecture , etc  about the whole practical use of when, why , and , where VEM is used .

    I am asking that at some point you or someone who actually has the knowledge . Give us the respect of dispelling the false information and enlightening us with an inkling of the truth about VEM . 

    I don't know if you are aware of the mass number of players now that think that every shot they make was personally altered by the VEM . And the attitude they have that goes along with it . 

    I'm getting tired of hearing it . I'm getting tired of typing " it wasn't them it was you " .

    What would there be a need for a Legend with an average of 72 to be VEMed when he or she does enough to screw their game already ?

    Too many people are using the VEM card for their errors .

    Some info , even if it is just a basic guideline of when , how , and why VEM is used should be provided .

    +1 bazillion.

    Folk who play the game improve, folk who blame the game do not.

    3 vem threads a week is getting tiresome. Why do conspiracy theorists think that a high volume of misinformation somehow equals corroboration? This weeks nonsense takes the biscuit though.

    Also +1

    More I read all this the more confused I get.

    What are people saying VEM does?

    Is it something they feel precludes 1 good round out of say 25 ?  If so barking mad !

    Do some feel it's stopping them shooting 25 - 27 at some ultra easy CC comp every single time?  Also barking mad !

    Do some RGs go south? Well boo hoo join the club.

    To be blunt I do not see any one with any game to speak of (and yep great stats from easy courses do not count) complain the way some do.  

    I did see one very good player say he saw some get a different game, but he was a very good player talking about very fine lines in most testing RGs, and that was interesting.  All the rest is utter nonsense.
