Bbradley62 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 At the table, you get a full explanation that includes ♣K. It is only the hand record that comes later that truncates the explanation. BBO has known about the truncation since the beginning of time, and basically has said that they are not going to do anything about it.

lycier Posted February 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Yes, now you have a look at the explanations on 4♣, " Cuebid -- 5+♠,♣A,12+TPs.” Is a very good , very simple and standart explanation . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 GIB is programmed to provide its information in a specific order:comment about the current bidknown suit lengthsspecific honorsHCP and total pointscomment about forcingnessThe reason the 4♣ explanation looks better is because North has only given suit-length information about one suit, not all four like South has.

cloa513 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Very good, even so, I think that Gibs should keep simple and useful instead of cut off some important piece of explanations, just like human Vs human.The output should be relevant to the format that its display. The display is very limited so the output needs to be brief. They replace cue-bid with C, not include suit lengths which are 2 or 3 unless bid specifically specifies like a few do. 1 and 4+ are much more useful.

1eyedjack Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I don't know all of the situations where the explanation is truncated (reproduction in forum posts being one), but I do know that the only critical time when a full explanation is required, ie during the play of the hand, it is not truncated. So, irritating but not such a major issue as is being blown up in this thread. There is of course an absolute limit on the number of characters that can be included in the explanation, whether or not subsequently restricted further in reproduction elsewhere, and that limit could be more intelligently used. Leaving out such random comments as "one over one" being a prime example. Or simply increasing the limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manudude03 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I wonder if it can be made such that the description only includes a title and features that have changed since the previous description. It would mean that users would have to click through every bid to get a complete picture of the hand though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
