  I don't play as much as I used to, but I think we can get together for one.

  Heh. I'm also not as good as I used to be, especially in the putting area. What used to work very well for me WGT messed up big time.

  People will not quit to hurt their opponent, it's to not hurt their average score. Also, during match ups like alt shots and match plays wgt aware a loss to the quitter(s) and a win to the winner even if the game is uncompleted.

   

  So i don't see any problems here. Unless i'm missing something.

  Yes forfeit and quitting is 2 different things. Also some of the better players don’t want to waste ball strikes at times on weaker opponents...some are in h2h rooms looking  to recruit newer players To the team. So if you don’t chat that recruiter is wasting their time playing you so they quit. In the top coin rooms the skill is higher so a player will forfeit because they know there is a very small chance of winning so save ball hits for next game......if you want to avoid the guys who just leave the game stay out of the lower rooms. It is littered with Poor sportsmanship

    On most formats . WGT considers quitting a forfeit . No matter how the quitter exits . He is supposed to get the forfeit .

    The winner will get the win and whatever gear .

    In alt shot . If one of the GOLD team leaves . If it doesn't reconnect . It will say " GAME ENDED WITHOUT A WINNER " .

    But If you look in activities . Green will get the win . No matter what hole you were on .
