Latest IAC News

Friday, 20th January 2012 ADDING DIRECTOR TO TEAM MATCH
There has been an issue with the captains setting the team matches being able to add bbo_iac as the director for the match as set out in the rules. On the download version it's simple to add, the names are connected by a ~ mark, as bbo_iac~onoway (no space between characters).

If you are on the Web version, go to the Director tab (below Who's Online and My Results) and there is a drop-down menu for the tournament (team match) that has "Show Tables" as the first option.

This drop down menu includes "Edit tournament". This option permits you to enter additional directors and is where you will put in either bbo_iac or onoway.

It also includes a "Cancel Tournament" option where you should be able to cancel the team match if the match has been set incorrectly and/or without the correct team match director. If you do not add the director she cannot help you at all in the event of problems so make sure you do this!

PLEASE check this out so you know what to do when it comes your turn to your match!

Tuesday, 10th January 2012 IAC TEAM MATCH SERIES
WELCOME ALL TEAMS TO THE 2012 IAC TEAM SERIES

To clarify times of the matches:

Saturday evening is 8 pm NY time or 1 am GMT

Sunday morning is 10:30 am NT time or 15:30 GMT

BUT teams are expected to be in the club at a named team table at least 15 minutes before the official start time. Matches can be set as soon as both teams are ready to go.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL TEAMS PLAY EVERY WEEK.

Teams which have a "bye" on the schedule are expected to show up to play; we organize a sub team. As long as the team shows up, they will get credit for the bye game no matter what the actual outcome of the game. If they do NOT show up NO VPS WILL BE AWARDED for the bye game. This is to make it easier for the captains, so they don't have to worry about if they play or not, I will repeat, ALL TEAMS PLAY EVERY WEEK.

Changing Time Settings
The way this site works, times should be displayed to you in your own local time. For this to work, we need to know your Time Zone and Daylight Savings settings. Times are stored on the site in GMT/UTC and if you do not specify these settings, that is what you will see.

BabelFish Yahoo Babelfish is an automatic translation facility which will translate this Site into a number of different languages. Please be aware, however, that Bridge has a fairly technical and non-standard vocabulary so some of the translation might seem a little weird. Also, since the whole of the page is translated (ie: including some of the programming code), some of the pages will not display properly and/or may not function properly if viewed in anything other than English.
