Hi all,
On the hand annotation, I found that I can annotate every trick except after the last card has been played. That annotation doesn't play back.

Also, when I play an annotated hand as a movie (not in the annotation facility), an annotation is displayed throughout all subsequent unannotated tricks, until it is replaced by the next annotation. There is a workaround by entering a blank annotation if no display is desired, I guess.

Thanks,
Dan

That is how it works :-)

This worked for me:

The new training feature with opponents bidding is great. But I would like to know if you gonna improve it on some areas. My suggestions for even better practice is.

* Would be nice if the opponents have a cc automatically loaded. Sometimes they open 2 clubs for example. What is that? One time they open 3NT, I bid 4 spades with 20 points the opps responder bid 4NT, what is that?

* If we could see the opps hand afterwards it would be great.

Yesterday I had a problem which I never had before with BBO. 3 times it happened. This is the problem: without any reason (not any reason I know) I get booted from the game, it gives a message "connection lost", starts up again, connects and pulls me back in the room I was before. I even had a player who called the director to know if it was allowed for me to rejoin the tourney!!

My system works on Windows XP, and I have cable (Telenet Belgium) connection to Internet which never disconnects...

BBO Ver 3.5.4

Whilst watching walddk sat in all four seat and presenting a lesson with 10 preset hands. Each time a hand was sent to the table I saw no cards. On 2 of the 10 occasions when the bidding started the cards appeared, but on the other 8 I had to leave the room and re enter before I could see the hands on the table.

As I have a new computer I am not sure I have all settings correct here.

Over all though I find the new set up to be a great improvement, keep up the good work ;-)

I downloaded 3.5.4 last week and since then I have not been able to use the Partnership Bidding Room. I get the bid box and am able to bid but the box seems to hang up after my bid. It doesn't matter if I sit North or South.

Also, the log chat function is now just running on--it does not start a new line with each new speaker/writer.

Are these problems peculiar to my computer or are they a software glitch?

Otherwise, I really like the new version.

Thanks for your time.

Mary
