Linda_S Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I see that some players instantly post their rather long alerts in the alert box. It is obvious they are not typing these alerts in, but they are pre-typed. How is this done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 These are being taken from their posted convention cards, if they have selected one for that session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Type the explanation in the box before you make your bid. Both the alert and the explanation are then delivered with the bid.No need for a lengthy explanation, the opps can ask if they need more information.

barmar Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Is your question about BBO? This is the General Bridge Forum, there are a bunch of BBO forums about a dozen forums down. Anyway, what you're probably seeing are people using Full Disclosure convention cards. To create these you have to use the Windows BBO app, they can't be created in the web interface (but you can still use them from there).

H_KARLUK Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Have no idea they use macros or not. Could help to save time especially for speed tourneys.I prefer to use and read universally accepted short terms. (ie Mich-Michaels, 03, revd-reverse drury, F1N-forcing 1 round, wk2-weak two etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
