So, the last battle of the year is approaching!
IAC remains on the lead, yay!!! But do not relax, ACOL will fight hard to win the next one!
This month we'll hold the event on
December 4th.
Deadline for registration is Wed, November 30th @ 2359utc, after which we can not accept new registrations.
We'll have 2 starting times, as usual:
* 1200 UTC, 7am NY, noon London, 17:30 New Delhi, 1am Auckland
* 2000 UTC, 3pm NY, 8pm London, 01:30 New Delhi, 9am Auckland
All boards are random, but previously saved in sets of 10 hands, so that all those starting at 1200utc will play the same boards, and all those starting at 2000 utc will also play the same boards, but different from those at noon.
Each match is of 20 boards, played in two stanzas of 10, changing opponents at half-time. Scoring is by IMPs, without barometer.
How to register:Please form your teams and choose a captain, who should mail
IAC.at.BBO@gmail.com (and please CC me:
sanja@sapo.pt), stating your team name, BBO usernames of the pairs in the team, and which session you prefer (earlier or later, either or both). If you want, you can play in both sessions, assuming we have enough opposing ACOL teams.
Each team can have more than 2 pairs, but there will be only 2 stanzas, the captains should inform us which pair plays in which session.
Important: Captains, please get
basic CC from each pair, and or include system notes when registering the team. They can be as short as "2/1 udca" or "modified precision with journalist leads", the rest will be explained at the tables.
You can also register here in forums, just make a post as a reply to this topic, but please
do not edit old posts, or we might miss any new information. There is limited number of teams we can accept, and first registered is first served, so make sure you reserve your place. Even if you do not have full team, register and let us know later players' usernames. Furthermore, if you are just a pair, please post here on forums and match up with another pair to form the team. Or as a single player, just say you'd like to play, and in which session, we'll try to pair you up with another single member : )
