İs it free?
Need definitions for … “HUM Systems” and “Brown Stickers.”
who thinks this is great, does not play the Free tournaments, they are still at ONLY 80 players who can register. That is very sad.
How will this affect tournaments done by clubs?
I think it is great with all the new things coming….Even a pairs tounament or swiss teams would be great….keep it coming.

It will only put most out of business.
It says MP awarded are these ACBL MP or just BBO mp
just bbo
However nice this may look and however nice it seems to be…. I think, new rules also inflict many other tournaments.I know many clubs who would like to open their tournaments for much more than allowed now, most are restricted to 80 pairs now, whereby in earlier days sometimes more then 200 could join. It would be nice if that could be allowed again.
sorry, i did not put my name on the last comment. however…..
If you sign up with BOTS are they advanced??
How do I get rid of my information when it pops up over my cards and I can not play them..ll.
