It may be better to instruct pair 999 on triple part 2 not to enter their names. That way there won’t be the glitch

You can run teams of 12,16,20,24 using the general movements supplied as standard in ebu score teams taken from Farrington page 139. Two parallel lines share boards, team 1 sit at odd tables, team 2 at even tables. Normal aw movement. Ew down 1 …

The info above looks right (+7 sitout and is fixed assuming a 10 VP scale) and not to get alarmed at seeing pair 999! (You can see NS plays as its normal pair number and then as 999 in the second half and you can verify this in the BCS Database t…

Thanks for all the comments on my original post. I think the post from CMot Dibbler on 21 August hits the nub of the problem with... "My thoughts are what do the laws say about "Pause" or "Pauses". It isn't mentioned in the definitions...! etc"
Thanks - It was a Multiple Teams and that seemed explicit for Teams league events. Perhaps the two table restriction needs adding to the previous line on Multiple Teams for clarification...
Currently, the NGS includes:
• Multiple …
Its for the future expansion of Bridgewebs (and Ecats, Pianola). CSV is a proprietary format specific to Bridgewebs users. XML is a universal bridge standard for bridge information transfer. Currently, you need XML for Teams XImps upload to Brid…
Alternatively, the Usebio v1.2 dtd held in the EBU filestore could be simply updated to allow for the DIRECTOR element? Access to the DTD file (used to process the xml) is held in EBU filestore and does indeed need access via the internet. You c…
That's right and unfortunate. For future flexibility and other good reasons, the XML file upload is preferable to the csv file. With the latest EBU ClubPairs, in the Import command, I check if the DIRECTOR element is present and delete it before …
Assuming they are BM2s, Set Section B in the Event Details. On the Bridgemate screen, Set BCS Options > Bridgemate II and tick the 'BM2 only - use section names as BM Section Letters' at bottom of page.
On installation of any EBUScore program, an empty BMPlayerdb.mdb file should be put in the default location folder c:\bridgemate if it doesnt exist there (assuming c: is your master drive which true 99% time)
This was done by a line in …
Other things I'd like to see based on previous XML creation issues:
I'd like the SESSION_COUNT redefined and more precise. It currently is difficult to distinguish between real sessions and sessions for charge purposes. Probably needs a ne…We could do with a COUNTRY and ECATSSESSIONID field both for Ecats usage. The Country field currently has to be transmitted within the Email Subject header but would be better placed within the Usebio XML.
I may have missed it but what I…
Thanks for clarification !
Looking at the NGS documentation for Pairs, there is a 'decay of effect of previous boards played', but I don;t see any maths that show the actual number of boards played in a session contributing towards the the session NGS, so it appears that 6…
Just to clarify this Notepad problem, Windows 11 includes a new version of Notepad (after 39 years since it was las released in 1983!!). There is an AppActivate in EBUScore which moved the focus to Notepad...but unfortunately this caused the err…
So online with no alerts, it went 1C - 1S - 1N - 2D - 2H etc The 2H bidder believed he was completing a transfer .
The pair reached 3N and defence never got round to cashing its six heart tricks believing declarer had 4 hearts.
So…Simple question - I am aware that transfer completions in reply to 1N should not be alerted, but does this apply to any auction where a player believes he is making a transfer completion ?
In the Dec21 Sky Blue Book, the update in 4.3.1 reads "the player should not
request an UNDO if they have seen partner’s subsequent call, but the UNDO request may
appear to the other players after they see the partner’s call". Can any…The problem is getting the Bridgemate Program to use the Access Database file created by the Download EBU Database button. EBUScore uses by default c:\bridgemate\bmplayerdb.mdb as that Access file. There are a few steps to get this sorted. Click …
It was a team game on BBO.
Its not specific to RealBridge, but we run a 3 club sytem with around 2300 player sessions per month. Every XML file is put in a shared DropBox folder with each club having that responsibility for a month. I have a utility that analyses all the X…
To import XML files with lin data you need to use the Usebio DTD file held on Bridgewebs rather than on the EBU.
Just change the 2nd line of the XML file from:
I think CMOT_Dibbler is exactly right and that Martin is overcomplicating the situation. If a player feels damaged after a hand due to MI, then you call the TD to adjudicate the hand. Asking questions when you really dont need to know is poor fo…
To me, East has absolutely no need to ask for an explanation at this point with his hand. The reply can have no bearing or value to him here, so I would be asking the EW pair to explain the reason for their request..
JohnG has sent me the associated files and he is right on the cause.
When EBUScore normally has a passed out hand, it stores Contract, Lead, Declarer as empty strings and when it writes the XML file, it tests Contract and if it is an empt…

"The big downside here is that X-IMP scores cannot be computed because EBUScore can't work out the "movement" of the teams match (a very bizarre limitation I know but it was never a problem before everything went online)."
Normally EBUSco…
(Quote)Yes - the properties page is the way to go for more than one missing pair. This is true for all Pairs,Teams an Individual. In the Swiss Scorers, you mar missing pairs on the Assignments screen.
