Not a great timing with the US Trials vugraph on, and Mother's Day overlapping, but here you are:

BBO Forums tourney posted for Sunday at 2PM New York Time (8PM Central Europe).

The tourney is open to all BBF members who have logged on the Forums in the past 12 months.

#4762 Indy BBO Forums Sun 2PM EDT (8PM CET)

20 boards, MPs, clocked, barometer on

If you are on web or on the mobile app, the tourney will be displayed in the list of pending tournaments 2 hours before start time.

Thanks all.

I messed up about as many hands as my partners.

eagles123 won. There were 5 tables, despite vugraph and mother's day, so I'm glad I posted the tourney. Results here: http://webutil.bridg...4762-1431280947

Had some complaints about it being too random. Here are my thoughts on that, feel free to disagree.

1) Most of the bad scores, random stuff, even rudeness comes from real BBFers, not from random unrelated subs.
2) When I do get a sub it's either a BBFer who missed the start, or a friend of mine whom I know to be nice/good, or, if none of these is possible, someone unknown

So before sending a tourney chat about subs ruining the game please keep in mind that in most cases subs were asked personally by me to come fill in, and they might not be happy to hear negative stuff once they accepted my invitation. You see bad stuff your way, consider the possibility that it's a BBFer inflicting that on you not someone who has no business being there

I'll talk to Barry about getting a better list of people who are allowed to join in but I think we should still allow forum readers in rather than keep the tourney for posters only.

I thought you were really kind to not throw a chair at me after this board:
