Hi all,

I am going to host "Cool Systems" tournaments, hopefully once each weekend.

The only allowed systems are those from my webpage

To be included in the custom list allowed in the tournaments, chat/email me
(daniel_neill_2000 at yahoo dot com)
with the name(s) and the system(s) played.

You can use another system, as long as it is
in the same vein as the systems on my webpage.
It should be complex, unusual, or highly aggressive.

All countries welcome.

Thanks,
Dan (djneill)

Thats cool alright
i think the besat problem will be to defend against all those systems, i suggest playing "nothing" as suggersted by granoveter in his book, completly ignore the alerts and diffend as it was natural.
good luck

I think you are too restrictive Dan. You risk to need to stop due to similar reasons that Todd faced with his fishes. I think that will be pity. Maybe tournies of that kind is a good way to promote interesting bridge - then it will really be pity.

Maybe another topic for you to consider - many asians like to play that kind of systems. I have within last 14 days found 2 indian partners for Lambda. So please take time for your tourney's into consideration so that those interested also will have a chance to attend at their local prime-time.

If you like little better defensive bidding against any cool system read about meta overcalls here in forum.
