$40 a lot of money to play with a usually dumb robot. Any chance of practice rounds after Nov. 14? Today is Nov. 15 and I haven't seen anything about this tournament until today because of illness.
I played late last night, after deadline due to storm! The registration disappeared cannot find it to play today? History also does not reflect activity.
Can you only play 24 boards per day? Could you play Saturdays boards then 1/2 of Sundays on Saturday or must you only play 24 each day of 3 days?
Yu must play all 24 every day. Unplayed boards for a day will be scored as zero.
I signed up for robot tourney in time to get early bird discount. See no place that it has me signed up or any place with a discount. Not sure now if in tournament
This posting title says the Discount End today, but I'm unable to get discount.
Actually, these robots are real dumb. Every time if you bid 4NT, it must be taken as slam RKC asking. I really don't know how to bid just 4NT?
I inadvertently registered for this tourney.....do NOT want to play and can find no place to cancel. Can anyone help out?
Thought I was to get discount for spring tournament. Did not appear on charge.
I signed up for a practice. Do not want to participate in paid tourney. Please cancel my registration.j
Why do you want to cancel? Were the robots really tough??
I can't find the two books you recommended on leads. Can you please send me their names again. Thank you
Where do I find the practice hands for June 27?
Why is the practice tournament not showing under the ACBL world tab after registering for the tournament?
I registered a few hours ago. What is the lag time for the practice tournament to be available? I've logged off and back on multiple times and the practice tournament does not show under ACBL World not under any other tab that I can see. It should have been noted under the registration that there would be a lengthy delay for availability of the practice tournament.
How do I get to the practice
pleas tell me how to get to get to practice tournament
Found them under acbl, but only after I registered.
Found it under acbl.
