D_H_D Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 Tonight somebody's partner was late, so they paid for a robot and the tournament started. Later on, their partner logged in but our attempts to replace the robot with their intended partner failed. An invitation was offered and accepted. But then there was an error message - didn't manage to note the number. Was this because the robot had been paid for? Or just a random occurrence?

bjacobs Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 I doubt it's random. It's surely there to protect the system from being gamed to get to play for just 25 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 I think you can only replace a robot with a human if the robot was originally put in as a sub for a human. Probots (what we call a purchased robot partner) can't be replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are probots different from the advanced robots that get inserted when one substitutes a human with robot?Tonight I saw one make and repeat a bidding error that I have not seen before.

barmar Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 Probots are advanced robots, robot subs are basic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squeezergb Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 I am sure I have seen somewhere Diana Eva saying that Robot subs are also Advanced. Can you confirm that all robot subs where replacing sit outs or a disconnected player are Basic Robots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robots rented as partners by players when they register with a robot are advanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall Diana Eva being ever being wrong on anything :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
