Hi I am user anderswen, but I created another profile now due to harassment and slander. I want to transfer my masterpoints from anderswen to [new username], is this possible? / Anders Wennerblom

Yes, it seems if you are in a tournament and happen to come at same table as the blacklisted person this person can write at the table to you, harassments. I guess avoid all kind of risk to bump into your black listed people is the best approach. Thanks Anders Wennerblom (anderswen and ublover1)

I have added some people on blacklist cause of harassment. It still seem to work for a blacklisted person to harass me at a table we both play at? Is it supposed to be like that? I wish to blacklist a person totally from all kinds of way this person can reach me. Please help.

Hi I am a man that had a father that was very good in bridge. I thought to become a good player too but it is not easy. I have played lots of hands, reading some book, looking at Youtube, solving quizzes etc. but I really need someone that can be my regular partner and at the same time teacher and give me tips and ideas on how to play. Please send me a PM to anderswen at BBO or answer here. Thanks. / AndersWen

I am in Sweden.

Hi In this period of the pandemic it should exist many places where one can learn bridge. I did not found many. I wish to have a set up of a teacher that goes through the general strategies of bidding and hand play in a lesson. After that the students can practice some boards and the teacher tell what they do right or wrong. Later on one can learn different systems that are not basic. Where can I find a bridge school similar to this please?

Ok I sent you an email Diana. / AndersWen

Hi I used to play at a site called Ultimate Bridge. I had to leave it due to many cheaters. I am wondering if anyone know about this site, and if so do you know how to contact management for the site? Many thanks AndersWen

Ok seems like this urgent call caught much attention. I did not meant it like that, it was just an example. Now for example I lost focus and time ran out. Oh well, it is my fault ofcourse. I will try to avoid this in the future. Thanks for your answers.

Hello Sometimes it can happen that something urgent come up in a middle of a tournament, important phone call etc. To avoid just abandoning the tournament, logging off, closing the website etc. and lose TCR, is it any other way one can drop out of the tournament and not lose TCR?

I am still here. A huge reason to stop playing is also, I have no clue about the game. So I just get devastated from playing and playing, mostly getting low score. If there is a free - rather cheap way going to some bridge lessons then I could do that, and preferably have some partner I could play with. / AndersWen

Hello I have developed a kind of addiction to this game. Also when I do a mistake by not focusing etc. then I get very frustrated. I can not play at this site, or any site for that matter any more!!!! Is there a way for BBO to block me from playing? I need a way for some "outer part" to block me. If I block myself, then I can also unblock myself, so it is not making it good again. Thank you very much for your concern. AndersWen

We are a group of people from the Facebook game Ultimate Bridge. Is it possible to set up (create it should be in topic) a club for those members?

I have been trying now for many months to reach 90% completion rate. I am nearly there but it seems to be virtually impossible. I was around 75-80 in August and have climbed to almost 90 now. I forgot how the tcr is calculated but it must be possible to reach back to 90%?

I find it hard to increase my TCR. I understand it is calculated from my tournaments 60 days back. I play maybe 5 tournaments per day and if I fail one it is 20%!!

Hello I am playing bridge at a facebook site sometimes aswell. There they have setted up tournaments, but one have to sit out now and then, although they only have four boards. At the BBO automated express tournaments with 6 boards, how are the people / tournament set up so no one have to sit out? Round robin, Howell... I do not know much about this so all info is appriciated. Also the automation: How is the program able to calculate the result of the contract, even though the hand is not finished in time? How is the algorithm of the robot set up? Is it very complicated or can I study it somewhere? Thanks Anders Wennerblom
