If you look at the current Vugraph Theater there are two matches running.

Putting your mouse over the top match (Wales-NI) you can see the players names. Mousing over the second match (England-Scotlnd) you can only see positions (North, South, East, West) and not the players, although if you join the table they are entered.

That's right but there's another problem. The names you see outside are not the same names as inside....Outside I see Anderson, Goodman , David G and Dunn. When I enter the room it's actually Kurbalija, Diane G, Rees and Devlin.

The names on the mouse over appear for about 1/10 of a second as advertised at the table, but then switch colors and names.

In other words, I see "Anderson, Goodman , David G and Dunn" sitting at the table for about 1/10 of a second. Their team colors do not match those advertised by the mouse-over before entering the room, but their place at the table does correspond.

The names then immediately change to Kurbalija, Diane G, Rees and Devlin with the colors at the correct seats. I do not detect the abnormal names on the bidding box, but maybe I cannot pick that up fast enough.

Nothing switches here. The names and colours remain the same.

This problem is really more a result of operator error (or more likely operator not being familiar with the relevant issue) than anything else.

I will try to clarify this point in the Word file that we send to new operators.

This answer may sound like a strange explanation for what appears to be a true bug. I can explain the details of what is going on if people really want to know, but I have a lot going on right now and prefer not to get involved in discussing this.
