CAPTAINS, I sent you all mail, same as here below, if you missed it or ended in your spam folder.
This month we have a new problem. Being August, most UK players are away on holidays, and ACOL could not get enough teams to match all ours.
We have 2 options:
a) Other teams accept pairs from above mentioned teams, to play in one of stanzas within their team. Double Down team already expressed good will to do that.
v) If this is not possible, I will have no alternative but apologize and dismiss those 2 teams. I will not call random team to fill up the match, because most likely we'll get quitters and match will end up cancelled, frustrating everyone.
I am sorry this info comes so late. Please see this file ( https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YFSwtN47jjccV_02e2L8yBWH1SAVPlld/view?usp=sharing ), and if your team is willing to accept Goldie's and Tea's pairs, please reply here, CCd to all. I'll have to know before 0900utc tomorrow (Sunday, 5am NY, 10am London)
Please be sure all players are online and ready to start playing 10 minutes before scheduled start time. Also, please tell players to NOT be engaged in another game, BBO changed team matches setup and now we can NOT invite any player that is playing elsewhere, even solitaire.
Have your system, leads, carding agreed and announce when you meet the opponents. All artificial bids must be alerted by meaning, not convention name.
Wishing IAC teams best of luck and lotsa fun for all!
Hugs, Sanya (Curls77)
