  23. Bsmtl

    I have a few questions

    1. Is there a limit on the maximum number of entries
    2. On Saturday, will everyone be playing the same set of boards.
    3. What measures are taken to avoid/minimize cheating

    1. Anonymous

      Hi Bsmtl.
      1 No limit (yet)
      2 (There will be a few sets) and not all playing the same boards
      3 No kibitzers allowed until semifinals and finals
      It can not be prevented if 2 persons decide to cheat, but players found using UI will be disqualified.

    I myself can not think of cheating because it has bad effect on standard of your game. But I had bad experience in unibridge. When once I made unusual but effective lead after lot of thinking, and it clicked, i was termed as cheater and removed. I was so much hurt that i can not foget that experience. This is a practical problem in online bridge.
