jdonn Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Also, I would hope to be able to play with non-forum members as most of my regular pards are not on the forum. Then you have to get them to join and make 10 posts first :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadie3 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I think it sounds like a fun tournament. My only comment about what restrictions to apply is from a practical point of view. The TD may have a difficult time applying rulings to issues that are unfamiliar or unknown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manudude03 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Would be fun to play. I'd prefer no bidding restrictions (I'm not too familiar with ACBL GCC anyway). I can't do this saturday though (unless its late-ish, like 7pm or later EST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vuroth Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 To kibitz? :) Indys are easy to jump in. Pairs requires a partner. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_KARLUK Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Cool beans. Another one to kibitz. ;) Do you mind if kibitzers disallowed? If you insist let's hear clunk voice. Why don't you toss a coin into "long live forums" chorus inbox :) I beg your pardon? Have I done something to offend you vuroth? Not worths to find a partner and join the party? I cordially invite all forum members and their guests. Boom boom :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flameous Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I have no idea what ACBL GCC includes so I also vote for anything goes. Would also like to find someone to partner :) I'm all open for discussion and learning what comes to system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm always up for a game so if the time suits, I'll play. I'd like to see forum members pairing up rather than bringing their own partners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm always up for a game so if the time suits, I'll play. I'd like to see forum members pairing up rather than bringing their own partners. Depending on what you want to achieve, this maybe a little unfair, given that there are regular partnershipsposting on the net. I cant help it, my partner is a typical german, works hardand does not wast the company money on hours in the net, as I do ... (I have an admin like job, sometimes, sothis may help explain my posting activites.) With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 then you can suggest regular pairs to play a different system, try something WILD, like sayc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would also like to find someone to partner :) I'm all open for discussion and learning what comes to system. It seems weird to use North American classifications in an international community like this. If there have to be restrictions, it would be better to use the WBF categories (e.g. no HUM/BSC), those terms are familiar to bridge players outside North America, also.l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still 10 minutes. Unless we live a big Internet or BBO hick-up I do not need we will need to assign extra time for rounds.IMPORTANT NOTE : But please post partnerships here.

cherdano Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 I vote it should be longer than 9 boards, 16 (with 2 board rounds) would make sense. Also I vote you can bring non-BBF partners (yes, I am worried about Han's new year resolutions). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
