After finishing a robot tournament it's enjoyable to kibitz those players who are still playing, but even better would be to know who are the current leaders. Could this be added to the list of players who are yet to complete play? And could the current leader's score also be added at the bottom of the screen during play so we would know how close we are?

Robots are in the upper echelon of on-line players. Robots deserve their own ranking list. Robot parameters could be adjusted:

• To give each a unique name (from Victor Mollo's menagerie -- or perhaps reflecting distinct Bridge personalities (e.g. Thinker, Speedballer, Underbidder, Overbidder, Psycher, Master-mind, Daisy-picker, Sacrificer, Pre-empter, Mad-leader, Squeeze-nut)
• To play different systems and conventions (e.g. 2/1, Acol, Precision, Polish club, Strong diamond, EHAA, Forcing pass).
• To allow them to take part in chat (e.g. bemoaning bad luck, insulting opponents and partners; they could even have a BBO Robot forum to complain about what human partners do to them)

I usually just kibitz the player with the highest masterpoint symbol.
