JRG Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 I always self alert when making a conventional call --- am I doing it correctly by clicking "alert" befor making the bid? :PYes. Then after you have made the bid, click on it in the bidding diagram. You will then get a small dialog box into which you can type an explanation. If you forget to click Alert before making the bid, click on it in the bidding diagram to create an alert and the opportunity to enter an explanation. If you make a mistake in the explanation (leave something out, for example), click on it in the bidding diagram and update the explanation. If there is insufficient room for your explanation, use the Chat to Opponents button (the double arrow) to send the opponents an explanation.

Free Posted November 29, 2003 Report Share Posted November 29, 2003 Is it obligated to type your information? I always alert, but if ops dont ask questions i normally dont fill in what it exactly means... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, an opponent can click on the bid and then you receive a request to explain (the dialog box in which to type the explanation pops up). I tend to fill in the information to save them the trouble (also, if I don't, I find that I start to fill in the dialog box and it pops up again as the other opponent asks!).
