In the express tourneys, slow players get replaced by robots (and, I suppose, unfinished hands are played out by robots to provide adjustment score, right?).

Now the CC loaded for human players is SAYC, but will the robots play SAYC? If they play the GIB system then it could be a problem if North opens 1NT, East overcalls 2 (natural), and now West is replaced by a robot who takes 2 as Capp.

Something else: at the beginning of the tourney, players receive two messages:
- Your CC will default to SAYC unless something else is chosen
- Everyone plays SAYC

So what CC will be loaded if I encounter a friend with whom I have a favorite CC? I think one of the two messages must be slightly incorrect.
The world would be such a happy place, if only everyone played Acol :) --- TramTicket
