malafaya

Without reverse strength i will always open the highest rank major with one exception: 6♣ 5♠, i open 1♣. There is even a case for opening 1♣ with 5♣ 5♠.

I pass, a matter of discipline as i see it.

Sorry, i didn´t know that (it was my first visit to the foruns). Apologies.

I know, but if i didn´t name one might think it was his partner.

Hi my name is malafaya and i created the nick XXX to to play free automated fun tourneys in the web version. I noticed a subtile form of cheating in this type of tourneys (i had noticed it many times before, playing with the nick malafaya): some players, as they know the tourney is clocked, when they know that likely will get a bad result, they deliberately delay the play of each card, up to the limit of being replaced by a robot, causing that the hand is not going to be finished and automatically Ave´s are assigned (after all, 50% is better than a 0...) to all players. XXX I´d like to make a suggestion that might solve this: instead of assigning automatically ave´s couldn´t a GIB analysis of the hand be made and assign more fair results? (I know some analysis will be inconclusive - when they largely depend on declarer/defenders play - and in such situations assignig averages can be acceptable, but in cold contracts??
