I like the idea of the responder getting out of the way and allowing the 2 club opener the chance to fully describe their hand
-
for example where I was going to rebid 2nt, all stayman and transfers are taken away, so do I just rebid 3nt or bid a 4 card suit? Like I said awkward. Or where I have 5,4,3,1 the bid is a pushed up a level prematurely.
-
Is it possible to replace this with 2♦waiting? 2nt always ruins the sequence
-
Just what I was thinking, but not in money bridge, as best hand is already there. It would be nice to have the option for the best hand dealt when just playing with 3 robots so one could practice declarer play.

Nice new look. The "table" button is hidden in the options. I like having a separate button for that, seems simpler and easier to access

I've tried opening the stock convention cards. First, i get a message that it cannot be displayed, then its downloaded in a format I can't read. If I make one up, I can open it and read it. -

I don't know if this relates to the "alert" bug already mentioned, but a number of times I've seen alerts for no reason, the last one being on a first round pass explained as a transfer. I did explain a transfer bid a few boards before, but it certainly wasn't a pass. -

There are a lot new functions and it will take a little getting used to for me, but it certainly has a "complete" feel to it. Like I said before, I like the user info/private chat pop-up. However, when you move the cursor off the box, it disappears. Then, you have to click on the user name again to make it pop up. There was some lag when I joined a table to play. No cards appeared right away, and then a rush of bidding stopping at me. -

I played a few hands and to my unartistic eye, the colors and layout look great. I like the floating box for private chat, works well. -
I just logged on.. looks great so far. Thanks for putting it up so fast. :P
-
Thanks for the update
-
Further, when I bid, the next player is highlighted to bid, I don't see any more bids. and then I get messaged that its my bid. As for the kibitzer list, there is no one on the list. The tab exists, but its empty
-
yes its the same. Connecting with the url you just posted, there is no option to chat with the table and the buttons at the bottom are all disabled. I have tried both Safari and Firefox and got the same result.
-
I saw someone comment that they are working on a new server....
-
Somethings changed. I can no longer table-chat and all the lower buttons except convention card are disabled. I also seem to lag all the other players so I think they haven't bid but they think its my turn.
-
Ok, I do not nor have I ever seen a table button. on the top I see: Myaccount, convention cards, results, vugraph,help, logoff at the bottom:leave table, director, NS cc, Ew cc, redeal, undo, leaders, claim There are other buttons associated with viewing people's profile and joining them, but, alas, no table.
-
Thanks Gerardo. Supposing I am the host, do any controls appear that I can't normally see?
-
I assume when I play South, I'm the host. I've had a few players get really upset at me because I don't/can't reset the score. Besides the fact that in a pickup game, who really cares about the score, I would like to be able to do it just so they stop messaging me in increasingly heated ways. Am I missing something or is there no reset button?
-
I also experienced not being able to join a table. After playing at a table that I started by inviting my partner, no new opposition could join when the original ops left. This didn't happen when I started another table with the same invite. I cant say what was different each time so I'm just stating that it happened.

First, thanks for creating this flash program so I can finally play on BBO. Since I'm not sure what you intentionally have left out of this program, I'll just say what I've noticed so far: In my account, any changes I make like lists of conventions are wiped as soon as I log off. On the play page, when I host, I cannot reset the score or boot anybody. When I click on someones name to see their profile, the chat bar resets to them, so I'm constantly sending private messages when I don't want to because I'm not bright enough to remember what just did 2 minutes ago. Again, thanks to Fred and and anybody else who is involved in creating this program.
