Just a couple of sugguestions pls feel free to ignore......

TOURNAMENT

After registering with a partner in a tournament it would be nice if the line in the tournament thats says....

You are registered to play in the tournament with partner_01

actually had a link to your partners profile

CHAT

Can the Chat box be made a lil more user friendly. Maybe with a few button with recorded txt like typ or glp or even user defineable buttons like Hi opps we play SAYC

good suggestion. Especially as often YOU were invited by someone you dont know - paired with a unknown partner. Its not entirely easy to search up someone you dont have among friends.
And the torurnament invitations are often coming only minutes before start.

It would be nice to get at once in connection with your new partner.

I agree with the pick-up partner thingie.

I really like to talk to my new pd at least 10 minutes about system (stuff like negative or forcing free bids etc) and especially defensive stuff. Unfortunately, sometimes they're invisible. Finding them in between all the cyan names is sub-optimal anywho.

So there ought to be some sort of quick button to chat to your partner before the tourney.


I'm not sure I like your other suggestion though. It seems to me that this is a slippery slope to the unbelievably impersonal world of windows "internet backgammon" type pre-written chat.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Someone once suggested this to me which I thought was a good idea. I asked him to post here but never saw the post.

When partners register in tourney, they should also be able to see their cc, and not have to wait till the tourney begins.

Idealy, I picture something like: Partnership registers, big CC appear in front of them, and they are invited to use it or modify it, and they are able to chat too.

Once they are done, they can both click "done"
