I'd have thought that eveyone could have at least one broadcast.
Excuse me, but this is the World Championships, not some social Sunday afternoon tournament in Outofreach. Heaven knows that I, on several occasions, have been critical of many of WBF's decisions, but this time I think they have done a fine job.
So has Hervé Lustman (Zmud99) on behalf of BBO.
No matter how hard you try, you can't please everyone. Let's face it and live with it. Constructive criticism is always welcome of course, but please bear in mind that you are getting all this for absolutely nothing.
No offence intended, Denis, Dave and Bob, but how much do peope think they can demand free of charge? Most of the whiners are those who prefer to lean back, expect miracles without doing anything, visibly huffed when they don't get it their way constantly.
And Bob, English is a must, so it's my job to toss a coin. Polish or Japanese in the other room? Japan lost, sorry, but I am in a no-win-situation. Either I must disappoint several hundred Japanese spectators, or perhaps even more Poles.
I have said it many times before but I don't mind saying it again. As long as I am in charge of coordinating vugraph presentations, I will not allow a mixture of languages in one room.
