Hi,


When adjusting a baord , everyone at that table gets a mess "td adjusted baord xx on table xx", even players in the lobby point out or ask"why adjust, we were finisched" , maybe it been pointed out before but this seems to confuse a lot of ppl.

Isnt it possible to do it diffrent?

Scores can be adjusted as long as the completed T is visible.

I think it is not proper to adjust the score w/o letting the 4 players know it happened. I dont see anyway around this, and i'm not sure i see the problem.

Hi Uday,

Sorry didnt make myself claer, problem occurs to kibitzers who believe "their"baord is adjusted, off course the players who are playing shoud receive a mess.

what i ment is that the mess for baord adjusted gets across to more players(finisched and now kibbing) then to only those concerned, i think there is also a flaw, at least there was that not the correct tablenumber is displayed, resulting in more questions"why u adjust my baord?" while it happend on other table.

When your board is adjusted you get a couple of popup messages.

When you are kibitzing you just get a line in the chat window.

But people aren't that smart. Tell me if I'm wrong...I think what he wants is for the kibbitzers to get a message like "The table you are watching, Table xxxx has been adjusted to yyy". If you just say "The director has adjusted table xxxx to yyy" they can get confused and think the table they played is being adjusted, not the table they watched.

Since there's a separate line of code to be sent to the kibbers, I don't see a problem in spwdo's solution.
