I have some suggestions for the TD Web Interface. Here they are:
1. When displaying the list of players in a tournament can it be an option to only see RED players to eliminate scrolling which is time consuming and uses server resources
2. We need a way to see what hand the tables are playing so we can go to the slow ones and push them gently along. Is it possible to add the hand in the player list? If not how about something like in the windows version that shows what round tables are in?
3. We need a way to adjust scores if it is deemed that something was done violating rules, such as a pshyic bid
4. When we are clicking to replace a RED player do not let anything interrupt that action

Hi Manxx, thank you for the suggestions.

1. Could be useful for big tourneys, although when a player gets disconnected there is an automated notice in the list of TD calls, stating player's name and table number.
2. The option to show tourney status is available, just like on the old version. Open the Director panel on the right and click the arrow under the Action heading. There is an option to display tourney status there.
3. Scores can be adjusted. In the Action column select Adjust score.
4. Not sure what you mean here... Please detail a little.

What rule does that violate?

BBO can also be used for running tournaments of games other than Bridge, apparently.

There's been a lot of discussion on the subject already. Bottom line, free tourneys CAN have their own rules, even if questionable. The rules are posted on the tourney description and usually listed at the beginning of the tourney too, for those who have missed them. If people do not like them they can simply not join. Banning psyches is not the most questionable of all BTW.

However the OP's question was about adjustment. If he had said "Is there a way to adjust score if there was a misclaim", for example, all would be well :)

It is not only the free tournaments that are free to make up their own rules, $$ tournaments are treated the same.
