I have both web Client and downloaded version, on two separate computers. Web Client under Linux ( which I would never use as I do not like it at all) and the other computer using windows XP which I use all the time. If I had to use Web Client as a TD ,I would give it away. Even the download version has problems for TDs ( every TD I know complains about the pop-up calls for a director which cause everything to stop until each one is clicked off and then can you finish typing , if another one does not stop you. I would love to be able to use the smilies at the side of this page when playing ,or more so when TD in BBO. This is possibly the finest Social site on the internet, and I hope, Fred, you can go forward not backwards. We want more people not less and all I have heard from most people is NO to webclient - keep our download version. Best wishes to all for the coming season,whatever your religion may be Tacheon

Thanks Fred, Your post was informative and illuminating. I am a very new TD just in the "Free" section. I would not dare to get involved in the "Money" area. My mentors just accept GiB's analysis as indeed I do too. I am a poor player myself and although I have completed BM2000 ( a fabulous program) there are quite a few hands I just cannot make,even after studying the explanations very carefully. As a result of my inadequacy in this area I just have to accept the GiB result when adjusting scores . But then there is no money involved and although there is the occasional opp that may object I , like my mentors, just say that the computer is never wrong :lol: and leave it at that.
