Is it my imagination or does a TD come to the table and immediately tell you to bid even though in your message to TD you have said you want explanation of an artificial bid?
I have nothing against people using artificial systems, I often use artificial methods with right partner.

However, I fully disclose my bids in the first place and give full explanation when asked.
On BBO I can't even find out if 1♣ shows clubs. It is like pulling teeth.
I have had a situation where I asked 5 questions in order to find out a meaning of a relatively simple bid. When TD showed up TD asked why I haven't bid yet as player has explained their bid fully. Yes, I had advised TD that the opps were not explaining their bid. Sure once I gave opps the 3rd degree they explained their bid.
Sarcasm is a state of mind
