Possibly Vampyr is missing a valuable feature of the Daylong format.
I am also unconvinced about the evidence for 'rampant cheating'. Is there any? Or is it another mail-in voting fraud story?

The reason that the tournament is offered over a 24 hour period is not that players take 24 hours to complete 8 hands of bridge. Most people would forget their own name over such a long time.
The reason is that it allows the entire world to participate.
BBO is the world's largest Bridge Club.

There are multiple types of "Daylong" they come in several different formats. Free, not free, matchpoints, IMPS, BBO, ACBL, challenge style, stratified and others.

As an aside, all of our masterpoint records are available for anyone to check at this link at any time, so it is possible to see who has played robot tournaments and who has played paid tournaments on BBO.

I do not understand why anyone would criticise other people for taking pleasure in playing one form of Bridge as opposed to another.

I find the challenge format to be one of the purest forms of Bridge available.
Playing the $0.39 MP Daylong is a highlight of my day. at the end of the week, I discuss the results with my Coach and I learn a great deal.

Who are you to criticise?

Why should I, and others that post questions on the Forum, not enjoy their game of Bridge as much as you, rather than being held to some arbitrary standard of what is supposed to be "proper" Bridge?

It's the Bridge Base Online Forum after all, not Mayfair Teahouse Forum after all. Everyone who uses it plays with computers not cards.

For Daylongs, travellers show all the different results for a given board, with a sample movie and a frequency, not each individual result.

Vampyr, I don't follow your objections. Once you have different sets of boards for different people as a condition, what's wrong with the way is currently done?

The OP, and the OP in another thread, seemed to want a comparison over more than one board, as they would get in a regular tournament. If “regular” robot tournaments are available (are they?) then I suppose the answer Is to play in those.

I have a feeling the OP wasn’t aware that the travellers were available.

I could not care less about any features of the Daylong tournaments. I was offering suggestions that I hoped might help the OP, not you.

The Forums are not all about you. Play your silly robot games and have fun. Though you might consider playing with your coach against the robots. You might learn a lot more if you were playing in a partnership game.

Now you are simply being abusive. Turn it in.

nice discussion
It is correct to have different boards and randoms but in the end it would be interesting to see for each board how the other players played it

thank you

There are a few ways to do this.

Let's assume that you are using the latest version of the BBO application running from a web browser.

Click on the "History" tab on the right hand side of the screen.
Select "Tournaments" to get a list of the tournaments that you have played in.

Select the tournament that you care about

Next, click on the board that you want to inspect

Finally, click on the Blue Button at the bottom of the screen labelled "Other Tables" to see the other scores on this hand.
