Trick 11, declarer claims D1. I decline. Call director and explain to her that declarer has clearly lost track of trumps, to which the answer is 'score stands, declarer ruffs and plays CJ, down 1' I am then ignored.

Excuse me?

Is it me? IS IT ME?

LAW 70C!! Hello. Hello.

you're not playing bridge online. it's a game that looks like bridge, but is played according to a different, unwritten, set of rules.

"Thank you for taking the time to write to us about one of our ACBL tournaments.
We always appreciate the feedback.

You are totally correct on this one, and I've sent the board to the director
pointing out the error of their ways. Our apologies for the director missing
this one. I've posted some entries to your and your partner's BB$ account and
hope you will enjoy playing together to recoup the lost points on this board.

Thank you again for pointing this out. We really appreciate it, very much. Have
fun playing."

Nice one.
