Thanks :)If your tournament allows robots, it is very easy to place them in the sitout seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsbarwick Posted June 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 I am aware of that. I would be nice to have one less step to do that is easy to automate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pescetom Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 If your tournament allows robots, it is very easy to place them in the sitout seats.The tournament does not have to allow robots (as in people registering together with a robot) for Director to be able to manually substitute sitouts with robots. I am aware of that. I would be nice to have one less step to do that is easy to automate.A frequent request to BBO already. Similar and even more useful would be to have robots automatically replace dropouts, and for players who reenter after disconnection to be able to regain their place at the end of the current hand, all without manual intervention.

If robot subs are used in these tournaments, this works the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
