BBO vugraph aside, the online coverage of the World Mind Sports Games has been pretty ordinary so far.

I really don't understand why the organisers couldn't have tested the scoring system well before the actual event to ensure that it all worked properly.

I also don't understand why the Day 3 Bulletin still isn't on the WBF website with less than 15 minutes before play starts on Day 3.

I wonder if Go, Chess, Checkers and Xiangqi are having the same problems.
