Yes, ok. It is clear now.

I am not able to solve Bridge Master Level 2, C-19 even while trying to follow solution. After winning with the Heart K and playing spades to the 9 in dummy. East plays a diamond and nothing in the solution talks about that. For me it looks impossible to solve this. (I have solved this one and all other before, I am replaying them now)

How to do that? Can't find any settings for that.

Now the symbols are small again. And I dont have a advanced section in settings.

Well. It got right again.

When I restared my Firefox, the card symbols became small. Can I fix that? I remember there was some setting where you choosed how the card should look but I cant find that setting now. I play withtou my glasses and with those small symbols I can have problem see difference between clubs and spades.

Opponent open with 2D. P bids 2NT (that is like open in 1NT for me). I bid 3cl for stayman. P Pass. BOOT!

Todays boot and chat after: g*→Bord: Idiot →g* (Privat): moron g* (Privat): LOL go learn beginner bridge IDIOT. Nt tells me NO four major BEGINNER →g* (Privat): that had been reverse and promised more points g* (Privat): Bye bye BEGINNER IDIOT →g* (Privat): Lol. Moron. g* (Privat): Silly little beginner c u nt Had 12 HP, 4diamonds, 4 spades, 2 hearts. I opened 1 diam. P bid 2 heart. I bid 2NT. (hard to know if 2 hearts there is weak or strong with an unknown partner, but it was weak.) Is this behavior ok? New player will be scared away from BBO meeting this kind of rudeness.

There is way to many rude players here at BBO.

Now I got removed again. Played on casual game. Had 3 HP and 4 clubs. My P opens in clubs and next Op Dbl. I pass. Other Op bid something. My P bids 2 clubs. Op who Dbl bids something. I took a chance and bid 3 clubs with my 3 HP (K in clubs). My P bids 5 clubs and makes the contract with some luck. Got booted direct after result. Obviously they didn't like my bid.

Little bit harsh I think. Mistakes happens and all people do not agree 100% or know what bids are forcing. Like 4NT can be (mis)taken for a kvant invite when the bidder mean Q about aces. We are talking play on causal tables. Why not chat about misunderstandings or lack of knowledge instead of just booting without warning?

What is that group? How to find and join that?

Hi. Have been playing here and on my local Bridge club here in Sweden since 2016. Looking for a moderate experienced P to do more regular playing with to improve my/our skills. In Sweden we have a Handicap system and I have reached around 32 on a 0-52 scale. I want to play on casual boards but also join some tournaments as pairs. My intention is to get good so I want a bit more than just play for fun. I have much free time to spend and sit a lot by my computer so I want a P that can play much. On "Bridge Master" here I have worked my way thru Level 2 and Level 3 and started on Level 4. Very good exercises. My English is mediocre but good enough for Bridge talk. I want to play with someone friendly on my level or with a good player that feel to teach someone who is eager to learn stuff. I do not want to play with angry people, I want it friendly even after mistakes. :)

How about removing players from board on casual gaming? Lately I feel that it happens quite often when I play on casual boards I suddenly get thrown out with a "You have been removed from board by host". Sometimes after a mistake and sometimes without a obvious reason. It is a little bit annoying as I try to play serious. Of course it is just to join another board but still little bit boring when it happens as I always try to play serious and not being slow. It is just casual board but I still think it is a bit rude to do so even after mistakes or bad playing. My feeling is that it happens more often lately. Any thought about this?
