www.bboskill had been started recently and they were giving the skill level of bbousers based on the results achieved by the user in bbo tourneys. This used to give the points obtained in IMP matches and MP matches, the number of hands played and rating number obtained from these results after duly adjusting for the strength of partner and opposition. This used to give a picture of one's performance When we see the rating points obtained we get not only an idea of our performance as a whole it also motivates us to improve further and obtain the next skill level. I understand about 19000 users were using it. Now the website has come into problem because of some need for technical support from BBO bridge base online for getting the data and the like. The website is unable to give the rating points due to lack of support. Will the BBOBridge base onlie authorities look with sympathy at the contribution made by wwwbboskill.com to the bbo bridge community and treat them as allies than as adversaries and help them to serve the community of bbobridge users Knowing the large heart with which the bbo is functioning as a free website to bridge patrons I am sure their heart will easily accommodate and help bboskill.com and take them as partners in the service of Bridge playing community
