Trumpace Posted January 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Gosh. The responses to this thread (and the new thread in suggestions) make me feel like the Paparazzi. I was hoping these names will be used for kibitzing and would help improve the game... I would never dream of sending unsolicitied invitations to a star for a team game/tourney, but I understand that there are people who might do that. The annoyance to the stars only increases if there is some list of names out there.. Fair point. I will delete the list I have posted here. I suggest the other person do it too.

ArcLight Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Rather than sit and watch a game, I would like the ability to look at the hand records of some of their games. Probably Zia doesn't want to be bothered so plays under Sunningdale. Whats wrong if I "know" this and don't harrass him on BBO. The only risk is if people bother the stars. Just don't bother them. The only contact I have had with a star on BBO was I left a message for Tim Bourke "I very much enjoyed your book Countdown to Wining Bridge, it was first rate" His reply was something to the effect of he was happy to hear that, and authors don't get much recognition. For the world class players with no stars, I wont bug them. I would like to maybe look at their hand records. Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bid_em_up Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 I dont think anybody has a problem with a list of "who's who" when their BBO ID's are known, i.e. Fred = Fred Gitelman, Jlall = Justin Lall, etc. Its the ID's where the person does not have a star and their real name is not on their profile, such as Dano's or Zia's. Those ID's should not be included in the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_U_Card Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 This will certainly help me select which $money bridge tourneys NOT to enter.... :unsure: First off, any professional player (ie receives $$ for play) should be so identified. :angry: Other than that, if they need anonymity then perhaps Pro1, Pro2 etc as nicks. At least we will know who and what we are up against. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
