No, you circle partner's bid. In addition to the audit trail it also means that opps can't possibly avoid noticing the alert.
No? Here, hold my beer.

Our ultimate goal on defense is to know by trick two or three everyone's hand at the table. -- Mike777
I have come to realise it is futile to expect or hope a regular club game will be run in accordance with the laws. -- Jillybean

You'd hope so, wouldn't you?
Written bidding is simple and avoids the issues Helene mentions however it has just as many, if not more ethical issues as the bidding box does.
Large writing, small writing, varying orientation of the writing, bold writing, faint writing, large, bold X, small X, hovering pencil over pad.

Besides the defect of unreliable legibility, a serious drawback comes from passing the bidding pad. To exercise care of reading the pad correctly, many players need to wait for the pad to be front and center. This bit of logistics is problematic after skip bid pauses, trips to the library, and such.
Bridge is a game and I will remember that its place in my life is that of a game. I will respect those who play and endeavor to be worthy of their respect. I will remember that it is the most human of activities which makes bridge so interesting. And in doing so I will contribute my best and strive to conduct myself fairly. -Bridge Players Creed
