- Implications Of Asking
- Although my suggested model may seem too radical, think about this: bidding/play in tempo already means bid/play in a time does not vary depending on the hand that is held. The way the current method is implemented is basically applying this principle in half measures, actually with no ...
- Implications Of Asking
- David Burn, the declarer should have a time limit per deal (or a set of deals), not per trick. So you can bid a slam that takes more than ten seconds to claim. These can be tweaked. Coming to a decision about play in a reasonable amount of time should ...
- Implications Of Asking
- Agreed. But the idea is to have time limit for every bid and every play of the card and have them completed in a standard amount of time. Thus the variation in time can't be used to pass UI to the partner.. It can be done easily via tablets ...

- The GNT's, a modest proposal
- For most districts qualifying stages of GNT involve long drives and overnight hotel stays. I suggest that we experiment with hosting the qualifying stages online in a proctored environment. For example, the players must play online on their laptops at a club. Obviously details need to worked out, but I ...
- The GNT's, a modest proposal
- Further to my comment, ACBL should think this way: players are spending a lot of money in terms of time, hotel stay and gas. Why not try an alternate format, e.g., online, and recoup some of that money for themselves and increase participation at the same time? It is ...
