[Mirjam_3]

I come at table and one has red dot.

The partner: She has red lips.
We all watched the red dot and it started to go out and on, out and on.
The partner: Now she is blushing.

[aisha759]

♥ Thats what i thought also!!! Ufff now i have to learn to play bridge...wasted all my free time learning how to belly dance, not realizing that i had to know how to play bridge at the same time ♥

Nice one blackbickini

[slothy]

This in a tourney not so long ago

At a table in tourney, general talk then...

....

Slothy: seni cok seviyorum ortak

Fifi: tskller p bende

Opp: Sorry opps it was said at the beginning that this was an English speaking only tourney. OBEY THE RULES pls

Slothy: Was just telling my p I adored her in her native tongue…

Fifi: : )

Opp: You can tell her in English cant you?


Slothy: You are right, Sir, I can. But when I tell her in English she doesn’t believe me…

Opp: Cant you keep your personal talk till after the tourney is finished…then you can talk in any language you want..

Other opp: (sent me privy that her p a bit of a stiffy) I hope you two are married (she said it jokingly)

Slothy: Yes we are…but not to each other.

Fifi: He asked me to marry him but I said no because he proposed in English.

Slothy: You see opp!

Opp: I talk in English that is all I am saying…

Slothy (in grrrr mode) : Perhaps because it is the only language you can speak…ok I promise to keep my personal emotions to myself…they seem to upset you

<next few lines edited out hee hee as may cause offence>

Slothy: p, frijiderdek peniri kirmizi kaplumbag yiyor…

Opp: If you write again in whatever language you are speaking I will call TD

Slothy (in provocative mode) : I just told my p that I have 6 hearts and I want a diamond ruff

Fifi: lol he didn’t opp. He just said, with a few mistakes, that the cheese in the fridge was eaten by the red frog…

Slothy: !!!! oh you not a good teacher then are you p…ufff got to start learning this language all over again!!

Opp: One board more thank God!!

(we met them 2 rounds later 2 words said in 15 minutes)

[spwdo]

hi,


this morning saw a regular partner online yet on brb, i still asked her if she was intersted in playing a tourney, ten minutes later she replie to me : sorry love, i was cooking and i dint "head" you


Later in the day i was talking with someoneelse about a mutual friend,covrsation went like this:A: u know xxxx too ? me: yes i like him, he is funny. A: yes he is a nice "gay".


ok

hope to write here soon again and wished i woud see some more of others as well


p.s. is alex still around?

[Frosty]

This is absolutely the best Thread of all. I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Slothy - can you skate? Does anyone besides me use WD40 in their tourneys?

Frosty

[blackbikin]

i have -stupidly- decided to enter belly dancing as a player, to see how long it takes and how it's run by new td.
new td and codirectors have turned off the chat to tounrey, so i could not say back a word¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡the biggest torture in my life.
after tourney i posted in lobby"all td of belly dancing to chat room, we will talk of freedom of speach"...im not telling you who turned up.

[Mirjam_3]

A player says an adjustment was wrong. I look movie and i see the board was nearly completed but certainly doubled down 2 and it was adjusted that way. So i tell the player the adjustment was ok.

Player: Yes, it was down doubled 2 but my partner couldnot think well since opp played very slow.

[Mirjam_3]

I come at table with player in red.

I ask the partner whether he needs a sub.
'No, no sub, plse we wait.'

We wait, we wait.

Then the player says: 'Disconnect him but dont sub him.'

[Mirjam_3]

In a tourney i have a cut of 20%.

After a switch a player asks me from lobby:
'Why did u throw me out?'
I answer shortly: 'Cut 20%.'
He replied: 'That wasnot nice of you.'
A minute later i found time to write him: 'The system does it, not me.'

The player: 'No it was not the system, the system only advertised i was excused and nobody came at my table.'

[sceptic]

Well on a light hearted note.

I would like to tell you why you should never trust a Danish Person or allow one to play in your tournaments, as this is going back quite a few months, I had just started to direct the odd tournament and I was trying to be friendly to all, so I started to learn to say hi in various languages, Danish was one of the languages that I had no idea about, SO, I asked a good (EX) Danish friend, how to great people correctly in Danish.

"Hejsa Store Patter" I tried it for a few weeks before some one kindly told me what it meant

[Mirjam_3]

Player: Can u plse let me in Glamour?
I: U arenot on blacklist. Is yr pc used by other BBO players as well?
Player: Yes, by Xy, he is my father.
I: He is neither on blist, and Yx that isnot him?
Player: That is my mother, now you know my whole family!

[Mirjam_3]

Last night i played a bit with td tools to find out how some things work. I found out that i also cd create a tournament without filling in my name as director and that my name wd appear on the announcement of the tournament. A simple feature was enough!
Today i created Glamour, using a k at the place of director and my name was entered in lobby.

All is ok, i thought, and i started tournament.

It was the most quiet tourney i ever had since the players cd not use the call dir button.

It took me an hour to realise that this was since they called for k and not for Mirjam_3

[spwdo]

hi,


well thats a way to keep those calls down dear LOL, we shoud do that more often
