More info from one of our clubs last night:
"I noticed that when I first logged into BBO, there were no tournaments – pending, running or completed. I had players ringing me up saying the same. At the time it appeared that BBO was just ru… -

Thanks Gordon and pg10003. We did use +allavail+ and it is useful. I'm going to record the run up tp tourney start on Zoom next week. This is a fairly new Virtual Club and it's not happening at any others I work with.

Not sure Gordon. I will find out. Thank You

Yes I am on 1.2.6..
This was an event merging two sections from BBO,

Sorry Jeff but I just ran it again then used your link to check syntactical correctness.

Thanks Martin that's a good tip

I have just had this problem for the first time. Inserting, removing, and deleting a space didn't work.
XML Notepad wouldn't open the file and would not parse the space after: 'played by> ' which had been inserted by EBUScore for every t… -
I'm with Martin.. it's one of the key reasons I use Robot Subs

Thanks all. That's very helpful. It's the first time I have had to decide based on the 'would you consider' question. Although I knew the theory it's always been more clear cut in the past

It appears to be because ActiveX controls are not supported in Edge (nor in Chrome)
I saved the file then 'opened with' Internet Explorer, which gave the message:

I like the Values Statement. The board may find it useful to role-play and/or practice how it will respond to and correct any observed divergent behaviour before it has to do it for real.

I wonder whether 'adequately' meeting the needs of bridge players and those learning the game will be sufficient to achieve the Vision of Bridge being recognised as the best mindsport and the most popular indoor pastime in England

@Paul_Gibbons Thanks...
That's an interesting option and would solve the problem of not losing out by playing the robots
It might still leave some disgruntled… -
I wondered what the BBC might say in three years time about how Bridge had changed, maybe:
"Numbers playing Bridge have grown astronomically since the EBU's transformation.
An increasingly health conscious population are turning t…

Hmm. I just tried this with a copy of an event I had uploaded into EBUScore (I needed to assign a weighted score).
It removed the 'missing pair ' from the ranking and left the other pairs' MP totals unaltered so I thought it look… -
I'm told that you can set BBO to 'Speak Chat' in settings in the Account tab.....

Thank you @495670 for this very helpful and thorough response

@timanderson you raise some great points and ask great questions
I sense from this exercise that the EBU has realised it has no 'divine right' to a place in the fut…

Spot on Martin

Tim. Not sure if it helps but when I helped organisations work on this stuff:
A Vision is the succinct description of the ideal future state.
Martin gets close with 'bridge to be the highest participation card game in England'.As MikeWilloughby says the listed values seem to me to be requirements not differentiators.
I'm not at all sure that you can look at the differentiating Values you need to create in an Organisation until you have agreed the Vision you exist…First of all it may be helpful - if you are trying to transform the EBU - to label it 'NEWEBU'
The best Mission statements justify the organisation's existence.
It should encapsulate the few things that NEWEBU will be better placed to…You may find it helpful to start with a Vision for Bridge before developing the Vision for EBU,
this would provide a context within which to plan the EBUs Strategic Future.
At this Strategic Planning stage, in our uncertain world, you…Thanks Michael that's what I' ve done but reading the posts I am still uncertain whether I should be using 900000 (Basic) or 900002 (Advanced) for robots substituted in by the director. Any guidance appreciated.
(Quote)Gordon, how can we tell? (I'd been assuming they were all advanced)
And what do we do if we have three of the same category as I did on Tuesday (two sitout replacements plus one disconnect replacement where the disconnect was b…
