  1. Check the preferred language content for your browser. By default it is the same as the browser language itself but that can be changed. What broswer is it?
  2. Nah, BBO VERY early address (in Windows client splash screen), used to be in Toronto. This was in early 2001. Don't remember exactly when Fred moved, but by December 2001 he already was in Las Vegas.
  3. Do you have Flash installed?
  4. But you have Italy (with Fantunes now playing for Monaco), and Sweden winning the Mind Games without Fallenius-Fredin.
  5. MUD unless supported the suit, then top. playing 2/4 MDU of course.
  6. The European Open last year has one in every table, at any stage (300+ tables). The first time I ever played with a screen was in a private match (played in a home, for some League), in Poland.
  7. Gerardo

    RIP

    My condolences, Winston.
  8. I believe it went back to 50 tables max per section.
  9. Usually there are options to work with dead keys, which are not on by default. This keyboard is an US one, can do, áçéǵíḱĺḿńóṕŕśúǘẃýźäëḧïöẗüẅẍÿãẽĩñõũṽỹ I am not using Windows, but should be similar.
  10. Matches are (and always were) shut down when 2 players withdraw.
  11. It is on the RIP thread. I answered here because it was off topic there, and on topic here.
  12. Current location of the data has limited space, so most current data is kept there. Older records are kept somewhere else, but there is no public access to them at this time.
  13. Swiss like, this is, best score plays 2nd best, 3rd plays 4th, (etc.) Now, a Swiss as I understood it does avoid repetitions as far as it is possible, but "BBO Swiss" does not. Not much to pick from 4 pairs anyway.
  14. Sometimes (like this one) worths to play in the 4-4 instead of the 5-4 fit, the 5th card providing a discard.
  15. Di solito, asignment punto in tornei a pagamento segue la formula di tornei ACBL (via Google traduttore, io non parlo italiano).
  16. I am on the "preempt once, don't bid again unless asked to" camp. I also overcalled 4♥ then freely bid 5♣ with a (good 7)-5, don't remember vul but surely not unfav. Would pass with yours, then ry to bid a 2-suiter bid.
  17. I'd X followed by a ♥ bid, if possible (not if partner bids 4♠, probably not over opps 5♣)
  18. Creating an account is too easy. If the minimum is 0, would be too easy to create N accounts for N votes, so a minimum of posts are needed.
  19. This is a NON OFFICIAL answer. I don't know what bosses think, nor I asked. I very much doubt Matt Ginsberg gave up all rights to GIB code, to the point such a move like the one suggested above would necessarily need to be green lighted by him.
  20. Polish Club 1-level (and 2NT) openings are GCC legal. Wilkosz is certainly not, but neither are Multi nor the Polish Twos.
