beowulf Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 We can be a bit parochial over here. Most of the rest of the world (i.e. not ACBL-land) scores 2 or a win, 1 for a tie otherwise zero when scoring matchpoint events (including BAM). That's all very well for ACBL events but is confusing for vugraphs of events run by the WBF (or anything "over there"). Could an option be added to allow "international" style scoring for these events? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 BBO displays matchpoint scores as percentages, not actual matchpoints, so I don't think this applies to them, only BAM. In that case, it would probably make more sense to make it a user option, not a setting for the vugraph event. That way, spectators would all see the scores in the style they're used to.

helene_t Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 it will be confusing if commentators refer to acbl points while the software shows international ones .anyway we shouldn't call it international mps that could be confused with imps :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
