rawits:surely everyone must admit there is an interface moment between your mouse click, the browser, and the server...
I don't think anyone agrees or has commented on that .
But are being directed realistically to ...
SimonTheBeetle: Yes, it's called VEM.

Anticipated expiration
HamdenPro: The "inventor" Yuchiang Cheng was a co-founder,
with Chad, of WGT. So VEM was specifically designed for WGT.
There are mentions of its use in other industries . Particularly Casino's .
SamSpayed: Just because WGT has a patent for VEM doesn't
mean they've implemented it in the game exactly as it's specified in the
patent. This is something the conspiracy theorists forget.
It is implemented fully . That's how it works . Not a conspiracy .
SamSpayed: WGT has already stated that the way VEM is
actually implemented in the game is to help struggling players get back
on track, then it disappears.
WGTChampion:
Okay so how does this translate to VEM?
VEM is in place to help, not to hurt. If a player is playing
poorly VEM will kick in and do slight corrections. It's not going to
save a ball aimed at the water, but it may give a small forgiveness
boost to help. On the other end it's not going to make a terrible putt
magically go into the cup.
Once the player begins to play a little better VEM will drop out and the player will be on their own again.
I'm sorry but that doesn't sound right .
I know it states in there that it is in effect right up to the very best players . Giving them just enough to keep them competitive . But not enough to beat the game .

Left on their own to do what ? Play a game that is out of control ?
Or play a game that is very precisely run on a very advanced program . To ensure longevity , consistency , continued sales , user satisfaction , etc .
