Wednesday Pairs - 29th November - TD Ruling |
TD RULING
On board 19, there was a hesitation followed by a bid. Hesitation is not a crime, but it can lead to thier partner having unauthorised information (aka unfair information). If that happens then their partner cannot take advantage of that information when deciding what to bid. If they do, and this leads to a good score then the director will cancel the table score and give an adjusted score instead.
Upon reviewing, it wasn't clear what the reason was for the hesitation, thus we ended up with conflicting possibilities for the unauthorised information. In those circumstances, their partner is free to bid what they like - they can't be accused of tabking advantage if we don't know what they are taking advantage of.
Thus the ruling is that the table result should stand.

Wednesday Pairs - 15th November - Score Correction |
SCORE CORRECTION
At the end of round 1, the boards from table 1 should have moved to the sit-out table (table 12) and the boards from the sit-out table should have moved to table 11. However the boards from table 1 moved to table 11, and the boards from the sit-out table didn't move.
This was detected at the start of round 3, and the board movement was corrected. Where possible results were retained, but it did lead to Linda MacFarlane and Jennifer Parker playing boards 23 and 24 for a second time (albeit against different opponents). Not surprisingly, they got a better score the second time they played it. But the Laws state that if a board is accidently played twice, then the second score is void. We have since adjusted the travellers to match.

Monday Pairs - 27th November - Score Correction |
SCORE CORRECTION
On the skip round, Paula and Judith didn't skip, and Susie and Sandra skipped two tables. This led to them playing the wrong boards on round 8. We moved them to the correct tables for round 9.
Because they moved to the wrong tables it meant that they boards that they did play on round 8 were boards they had played earlier. The scores for playing the board for the second time have to be cancelled. These were replaced with average minus for both North/South and East/West. East/West were obviously at fault because they moved to the wrong table, but North/South were also at fault as they are responsible for checking the names of their opponents on the Bridgemates.

Wednesday Pairs - 1st November - Score Correction |
SCORE CORRECTION
A mistake was made when entering the scores for board 5, where one result was omitted. This has the effect of shuffling up all the results for the pairs below on the traveller, assigning the subsequent scores to the wrong pairs.
The results on the Bradgate and EBU websites have both now been corrected to reflect this.
