On 6/10/18, ACBL Tourney 8708, Board 11, robot response says 13+ total points. It actually had about 20 total points. Also on 6/10, ACBL Tourney 9251, Board 9, North robot goes to 3 NT with only 7 points. Cursor says it has 9 -11. I realize that the last few days my playing could be way off, but I can't help but think something is wrong with the robots response. Anyone else think so?

You can tell by the number of posts in this forum that the bots often go "off" in the bidding. But it's much easier for us to comment whether the robot went crazy, or whether you were the one who went wrong, and easier for the programmers to look at and fix, if you post a direct link to the hand in question; create a different thread for each hand. First, go into your hands and results/board history, recent tournaments, my hands, click on the board in question. Hit "export deal->handviewer link". Copy the link or hit "show", then "open in new window". Open the link in your web browser, and copy the fully expanded URL from the address bar to the clipboard.
Now in the forum, use the code:
[hv="paste full url here without the quotes"]400|300[/hv]

This way we can see the hands, the full auction, and the description of what the bots think the bids mean.

20+ pts is included in 13+.
Gib had 7 and showed 9-11. Your lucky is close. May be counting something you don't realize.
