Trying to look at the Natural Bidding forum, I get "No topics were found. This is either because there are no topics in this forum, or the topics are older than the current age cut-off."

So what's the current age cut-off? Can I override it and see older postings? Hard to believe there aren't any recent posting in this forum anyway.

Good one

I thought that's what this was about too, but I couldn't figure out why or how anyone would want to restrict players who are [over/under] the age of [xx]

Well, there are junior tournaments exclusively for young people, and the are senior tournaments for elderly players (the cutoffs for these have been rising as our age demographics shift).

But none of these are BBO games. I think the only thing we do related to player age is that juniors get free upgrades to advanced robots.
