Like many other players, I get fed up of starting or joining a game and then finding myself playing on my own. So I decided to keep a record of 10 straight games to see what the results would be. These were all played on the front nine of Beth Page Black.
Game 1
Two Playing
Opponent disconnected after a poor Tee Shot in the first.
Game ended.
Game 2
Two Playing
Opponent disconnected after a first hole bogey.
Game ended.
Game 3
Three playing
Opponent 1 disconnected on his 5th shot after having a poor Tee shot.
Game completed
Game 4
Two Playing.
Opponent attempted to force the pace of the game. He became aggravated and disconnected on the 4th after falling one shot behind.
I checked this players Wall... there were 5 comments on his poor behaviour and lack of sportsmanship.
Game ended.
Game 5
Four playing.
There was no delay in loading - 2 players disconnected as the game started without hitting a ball
Game completed.
Game 6
Four playing.
Host disconnected after a poor tee shot on the first
Player 2 disconnected after a double bogey on the second.
Player 3 disconnected after a double bogey on the third.
Game ended.
Game 7
Three Playing.
Player 1 disconnected after his 7th shot on the second.
Game completed.
Game 8
Four playing.
Player 1 disconnected before hitting his ball.
Player 2 disconnected after a bogey on the second.
Player 3 disconnected when the site failed to load him.
Game ended.
Game 9
Four playing
No disconnections
Game completed.
Game 10
Three playing.
One player had a really bad round but stuck with the game until before his final shot before disconnecting. (I have no problems with that)
Game completed.
So there's my story and I'm sure this is repeated on WGT over and over for many players who just want to have a game and finsh what they've started
