I knew you where! 8) :D

Btw there is alot of things in real tennis thats not in tennis games:

bathroom break
touch of the net
people streaking
rain delays
medical timeouts
warnings for time delay
etc

the list goes on and on and my point is tha the line has to be drawn somewhere. Challenges are there because they need to be. If human error didn't exist we wouldn't have it in pro tennis. Human error don't exist in a game (except on my part when I play, I make alot of mistakes).

your points are valid and i agree with you. I guess i just like the challenge system for "the show"...
i am saying this while in the first place i am not too fond of the challenge system in real tennis. yeah i guess i am a weird one.

I want the ability to take a bathroom break. When you gotta go, you gotta go. I don't want to lose points 'cause I can't pause while i piss :?

But computer errors do!! Therefore i say why not,sure it won't happen as often as real tennis but there are times in almost every tennis game ive played, where a call has looked questionable(and in the case of Smash Court Tennis 3 i was right.....or wrong lol).

beside's there's always the option to TURN IT OFF.so i don't see why it shouldnt be in :?

Well what's the difference between asking for challenges and asking for unforced errors??...really. So many people complain that players don't miss enough, well I say it'd be more interesting to have bad calls. :)

Challenges are a terrible, wretched idea for exactly the reason Rob stated. The computer would have to intentionally make bad calls...I don't know how that doesn't terrify/anger you all TBH.

It would totally throw off the balance of the game....I think MAYBE it could be fun if used ONLY in the OFFLINE game, like say you're practicing against the CPU or playing doubles with your friends. Even then I still think it's lame.

And here's the real catch:

If the CPU truly missed the call, out of some glitch, then what would a challenge accomplish? If the CPU thought the ball was out, then it's still going to say it was out when you challenge. Plus, the CPU is what decided where the ball landed in the first place - it knows if it's in or out before it even leaves the racquet.
