Dear David I know Fred very well. He is a true gentleman, a person which will hurt nobody. I know that his ( or Uday) software is perfect to showing results. I also know that providing Jasio Romanski (Polish programmer) software is far more better than Swan. Fred and Jasio were responsible for the European Championships in Warsaw. We organised 12 tables and results appeared in a flash. You are remember this broadcast. I am sure. Everybody knows who is playing there was a recording of all hands. It was possible to find everything on one page. It is a former perfect graphics. All, together with bridge VIP praised Fred and Jasio. David, if you want to know the answer why do they chose Swan, ask WBF. I believe that you are a smart guy, and you already know the answer. Ela Wojciechowska - wojela

It is a draft of rules internet league. If all will be good after Easter teams will be able to register. BBO ITL RULES General rules Teams Registration Team Competition Group stage Promotions and Relegations Match results and final standings. Match The event, lineup procedures. The result. Tardiness. The problems with scheduling/ finishing the match. Captain responsibilities. Conventions. Penalties summary. Tardiness. Unfinished matches. Cheating. Breaking the rules. General rules Bridge Base Polska Team is the organizer of eh BBO Internet Team League, all event will be coordinated at the BBO ITL site : www.bridgebase.pl/league BBO ITL is composed of: Premiership – 2 groups of 10 teams, First Division – 4 groups of 10 teams each, Second Division – 8 groups, number of teams is depending on number of teams registrated. Competition is going to be played in 3 months series ( 3 series by year) called seasons. In every season teams from same groups play 2 matches with each other groups members, both matches should be played in one meeting Matches are 12-boards, no undos, kibitzers allowed silent No player is allowed to be registered in 2 teams same season and play for 2 different teams same season. All claims will be examinated and decided by KewIN. The League will be governed by the Laws of Duplicate Bridge (edition 1997). Teams Registration Registration form is available at the BBO ITL Site, at My Team section, to accomplish the registration task it is necessary to fulfil all required formalities. During the registration there will be pointed the Captain of the team, who next will be representing and performing all duties related to participating the League. Team Team is composed of 4 to 12 players, every team must have the Captain Teams are allowed to remove and add players during the season, but no player is allowed to play in 2 different teams same season. This obligation is saddled with the team and its captain. The Captain of the team can be replaced during the season but the team must have the Captain in every moment of the competition. Competition Group stage In every season teams from same groups play 2 matches with each other groups members, both matches should be played in one meeting Matches are 12-boards, no undos, kibitzers allowed silent Competition will be proceeded due to calendar available at the BBO ITL Site, but departures from the schedule are allowed with both sides interested agreement and BB Polska Team informed. Teams should agree the date and time of the match between them and then inform the BB Polska Team. Every match should have Director , and BB Polska Team coordinator assigned. Promotions and Relegations At the end of group stage every 4 lowest placed teams from each group of Premiership and First Division are relegated to the lower division . Every 2 highest placed teams from First division and Second division are promoted to higher division. The best 2 teams from Premiership groups proceed to Championship Playoffs. Playoffs will be composed of semifinals ( between 1st team of 1st group and 2nd team of 2nd group, and 2nd team of 1st group and 1st team of 2nd group) and the final b between defeated teams and the great final between winners. Playoff matches should be 2 segments 16-boards each. Premiership and Second Division groups should always contain 10 teams , if there is no way to fulfil this condition , additional teams will be promoted from lower league with lower number groups members preferred. Second Division groups should always contain the same number of teams , if there is no way to fulfil this condition then the difference between groups must not be greater than one team and the lower number groups should be always larger than higher number ones. In the case of unexpected situations not described above BB Polska Team reserve the right to make the appropriate decisions concerning division and group qualification. Match results and final standings. The result of the match is computed as a summary score of 12 boards in IMPs, and recalculated to VP scale. The final standings is decided by aggregate VP score from all matches. In the tie situation , the immediate match score decides, and if still there is a tie highest IMP score. Whenever there will be a tie after all these rules, the teams will play 4-boards extra-matches until there will be a winner (max 3 times). In case of withdrawing or excluding the team from the competiotion, all the matches will be annulated ,and the team will automatically consider as a last team in the group. Match The event, lineup procedures. In the agreed time both participating teams players appointed to play first 12-boards segment meet in the chat room started by the captain of lower seed number team ( this team will be considered as a home team for this segment). The exact time of all 4 players of the given team entering the chat room is taken for moment when team is ready to play. The starting time of a match is defined as either the scheduled starting time or the time at which four members of one team are ready to begin play, whichever is later. The captain of home team has a right to choose opponents pairs placing. The team loosing after the first 12-board segment is then consider as a home team and we are to repeat the procedure. Although we must follow the rule which forbids playing same pair vs same opponents. During the one segment there should be no changes in the team, unless there is a emergency caused by technical problems, e.g. disconnection of one of players. If the replacement player was kibitzing before he could enter the game he must get the opponents captain permission. The result. Match will be acknowledged as completed after captain of first home team sends the results to the BB Polska Team. The results ought to be sent via form page on the BBO ITL Site in the Match Studio section. The proper results include: Scores from both segments given in IMPs. The movie files from both segments. Delay report if necessary. Claims if needed. Tardiness. Arriving late to a match is a discourtesy to your teammates and opponents. The section below describes the penalties for lateness. These penalties may be appealed to the coordinator but are not subject to discussion by the participants. Such discussion can only further delay the match and cause increased penalties. The only appropriate discussion of tardiness is that the team captains should agree on the time that each team was prepared to begin play. Przewiduje się następujące kary za spóźnienia: There is no penalty for first 15 minutes of lateness, but in case of permanent tardiness the BB Polska Team reserves the right to penalize offending team. A penalty of three IMPs per each five minutes, max 18 IMPs. If a team is over 60 minutes late the matches will be rescheduled and the offending team will be assessed an 18 IMP late penalty for the match. The late team captain is permitted to protest the penalty with exact explanation of tardiness reasons. A match is expected to be played at the rate of 7 1/2 minutes per board or faster, or one hour and 30 minutes per 12 boards. Complaints of slow play may be made to the director during the match or to GOD in writing when reporting the scores. Kapitanowie mogą zgłaszać zbyt wolną grę przeciwników do koordynatora w czasie meczu lub wraz z wynikami do GOD. No hand shall be started 4 hours after the official start time for the match without specific agreement by both captains (or acting captains should the captain not be available) that the match shall run long. Substitutes can be used to fill out a table to allow play. A substitute may not be a member of another team in the same league. If a substitute plays twice for one team, he becomes a member of that team and can no longer substitute on other teams. The problems with scheduling/ finishing the match. The intent of GOD to hold matches, and every effort will be made to have a match played rather than declared a forfeit. GOD expects full cooperation from all teams in accomplishment of this aim. On the event a team withdraws during a match, the non-offending team shall be credited with a win and, at the end of the season, be credited with a VP score for the forfeiture being the highest of: the average VPs scored by the non-offending side the average VPs conceded by the offending side 22VP. The team which breaks off 3 matches in the season will be automatically excluded from the League. Generally, when a side requests a fixture to be postponed owing to very bad weather or for mutual convenience, a new fixture date shall be arranged. The fact that a side is unable to raise its strongest team for a fixture would not justify a postponement and if it is not possible to complete a match by the end of the season rule 8 shall apply. Captain responsibilities. Arranging with the other Captains the date and starting time of matches. Agreement prior to start of play upon the minutes of lateness, if any. Perform all official team communication with GOD, including reporting of scores (in IMPs), providing movies of the match, appeals, claims of forfeit, requests for modification of team membership or captaincy, and proper advance notice of all matches-dates and official starting time. Team players supervising over respecting the League Rules and the rules of the BBO community. Conventions. Best might be anything goes, so no arguments over what is being played. However, all conventions not on PREAPPROVED LIST must be pre-alerted and defences provided in writing to GOD for posting on BBO ITL Site Special carding agreements and treatments must be pre-alerted (UDCA. O/E. etc). CONVENTION CARDS ARE OBLIGATORY, and are to be filled out completely. If you believe your opponents have not made a good faith effort to completely fill out their convention card, save it and forward it to GOD. If after GOD reviews the convention card, he may request the players involved to elaborate more fully. Failure to do results in expulsion of the offending pair. Penalties summary. Tardiness. A penalty of three IMPs per each five minutes, max 18 IMPs. Forfeiture penalty as described above in the case of impossibility of completing the match. Permanent lateness penalty up to 25 VP in season. Unfinished matches. In the case of impossibility of completing the match, when the parts agreed to break the event , and after that they never come to new appointment , the team finded guilty of this situation will be penalized in forfeiture proportion according to number of boards remainding. Cheating. The team which will be recognized as cheaters will be immediately excluded from the League. Breaking the rules. In all other cases of breaking the rules of our community or clearly offending and disrespecting behaviours which are not mentioned above, the BB Polska Team reserves the right to determine the offending side and impose the penalty.
