Alerting, not announcing

The Club has abandoned the system of announcements which the EBU introduced in 2006 and uses in its tournaments. We have reverted to the long established previous custom which relies on alert cards and questions. The Committee reached this decision after taking into account the preferences expressed by members at the time of the last AGM. The relatively small number of preference votes were evenly balanced (13 each way), with the majority of our 70 members showing no preference either way. However, we tried out the basic announcing system for more than two years and most members have not shown much enthusiasm for using it. So we have adopted the traditional system of alerting and we think members are putting it into practice more consistently.
