Keene_JP Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 per ACBL recently: One more bit of good news…while this may not happen for a few more days, if you have a robot pair in your game, they will be marked as ineligible to receive masterpoint awards. Details? If robot pair places 1st and human pair places 2nd, does that pair receive MPs based on 1st or 2nd place finish ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_R__E_G Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 This is now in place. Yes, all of the human pairs "underneath" the robot pair gets moved up a spot in the awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note: This happens within the software at the ACBL. My understanding is that results on BBO do not reflect this/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game results on BBO will show the original awards, on Live for Clubs the awards get recalculated and the robots are excluded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 I think this is similar to the way live clubs handled robots filling in a half table. They get entered into ACBLScore, and marked "Not Eligible", and it ignores them when determining the masterpoint awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
