I think west would have bid 3♦, not 2, with seven of them.

If there is more than one set of relay boards then there is very likely to be a board in the set they were supposed to play with the same vulnerability. If you aren't playing predealt hands, just put the cards they're playing into that board. Dealer doesn't matter, just rotate as necessary and do what you'd have done if they had played the board in the wrong orientation. If you're unlucky and there isn't a board with the right vulnerability, well, the players have just invented a new movement. Again. At least this time you know before you start scoring, and there's no need to spend half an hour in the kitchen desperately trying to work out who can still play which board against whom at what table.

Power cut. Session ends immediately because no-one can see the cards well enough to play. (We had one last night - very annoying) Roy

Unless they can look at their partner and predict who should be playing it. Roy

I'd be happy with any of the above except "never lead trumps". Have even had some enjoyable sessions with a partner who liked 1d as 5+. What puts me off: - "no undos" - "expert" with one system - no name - "SEF" and, possibly unjustifiably, anyone from Turkey. Roy
