RIP Janak Dave(DblTrbl), TD for many years for BBO Fans and Global Club https://www.nkytribune.com/obituaries-2/janak-g-dave/6913

FWIW, I start each round with an announcement like this to the table: (for goulash) Hi! Pass=0‑20No5+ 1♣!d♠!h=5+0‑∞HCP  5+&5+0‑∞1nt=!h&♠…2nt=♣&!d…2♣=♣&!h…2!d=!d&♠…2!h=!h&!d…2♠=♠&♣  Jump/4+shift=<3support X=TAKEOUT 1st call&<6 Blkwd…P0D1R123 3N jump asks ace cuesP1D0R0 UDCA,O/E discards Alerts GL  www.TomTrottier.com/Goulash.html You have about 246 characters to play with. Unicode characters often count for 2, though,

Maybe you are wrong. Maybe they are wrong - or just don't see it, or think you will mess up. Not a reason to Ignore them. What bothers me is when I make a claim and it is neither accepted or rejected!

As as TD, I often am called to tables where a player hesitates at last trick because s/he does not want to see a bad result. I usually penalize them an extra trick. 😠

Often bad players play slow against good players in unclocked tourneys. Sometimes the AVE they get when they run out of time are the best scores. It would be fairer to adjust unplayed boards not to AVE, but to their average vs the same opponents in the tourney. Or perhaps, something between AVE and their score vs those opponents. Then players would have a reason to hurry up! -- tom

We often get multiple calls from the same table, especially in big tourneys with multiple TDs. We used to be able to sort by table number so we could handle them all at once. In V3, they are sorted by arrival time - so TDs end up visiting the same table multiple times when the problem is already solved... Why not, when choosing Accept, accept ALL the calls for that table, showing them in chat. Then then they can be handled in one visit, saving everyone time & trouble.

If one player plays much better than the other, this could be abused.

I copy & paste from a text file. I find it easier to use/edit. Control-C & Control-V are your friends...

For auto alerts, you might find https://github.com/stanmaz/BBOalert useful. It is a browser extension for Firefox and Chromium browsers including Chrome & Edge For windows, AutoHotKey can be useful for text macros ..... and much more.

FWIW, try switching between Hand Diagrams & Pictures of Cards.

And in History? FWIW, if hand diagrams, dummy has gray background

When you turn on "confirm bids", the colour of the OK and the colour of the bid are the same - orange. So how do you tell the difference? When you have already chosen a bid, and it awaits confirmation, the colour should be different from the OK button. Orange should mean "click here" and Pass, Double or 1H should not be Orange! Please fix.

TWO weeks!

The black space should be on one side or the other of the board - not both! Then you would have room to see profiles and other stuff.

It used to be chat was automatically sorted - then you could put initial digits/letters at front to control order.

That's dumb!

I know that History can now easily show past tourneys played. Alas, they cannot be put in personal folders :(

Since your purpose is to make a video to show people the play - why not just give your audience the handviewer link with your comments at particular points?

Hi, you are lacking some countries' flags - eg Antigua, Azerbijan ... Uzbekistan see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states

Columns cannot be sorted in V3 :( - In table lists I use this to find people, to sort # reverse to make slow table adjusts without having to scroll, and to sort by Kibbers so I can adjust slowest in last round with fewest kibbers - in all tourney lists, can sort by title to see similar tourneys (especially "pending" tourneys which need changes by TD) by entry fee, by entries. by table count, or by type of tourney. -- tom

In v3, when N makes a claim, the hand menu can not be seen or items selected, so no double-dummy, no adjust when hand diagrams are shown. Please fix. -- tom

Why are Hosts forbidden to Kib players in their own tourney? Please allow Join Table in profile. -- tom

Menus go off screen When showing a menu for a tourney or player near the bottom of the screen, show all choices! The later choices are invisible, untouchable, and unusable. EG: Pending tourney, Player. -- tom

:D :P not working Saaaaaaaad only :D and :P make faces -- tom

As TD, I used to be able to see "Player's results" via a right click. Please reinstate. Thanks -- tom
