♠ ♥ RealBridge ♦ ♣ 

The use of video and audio makes RealBridge the closest thing you can get to playing F2F, but you can play RealBridge without video and/or audio. In fact, you don't even need to have a camera or microphone, or you can turn your video and audio off if you like, but audio is useful in that it means you can talk to the other players and don't have to type your chat. Before joining a RealBridge session, if you haven't done so previously and you intend to use video and audio, test your camera and microphone by

To join a RealBridge session.

15 minutes before the start time Click Here or on the link to the right of this advert on the day or on the link on the "Calendar" page.

If it asks if you want to "Allow RealBridge to use your camera and microphone" say "Allow". Enter your first and last names in the "Full name" box as it would appears in the results on this website. Enter your EBU number in the "ID number" box. The Session Key should have been filled in automatically or left blank. Put a tick in the box for "High contrast UI" if you are colour blind, then click the " Join session " button, not the " RB Login " button.

This will take you into the "Lobby" from where you will be able to see the tables and seats, if your partner is there sit opposite your partner or if your partner isn't seated sit at a low numbered table.

If you don't have a partner sit at the highest numbered table, if there is someone else there without a partner then ask them if they would like to be your partner and discuss what system you are going to play.

Please don’t stay in the lobby, it makes it harder for us to talk to you and to get the session started on time.

If two of you are playing in the same room at home, one of you may need to move otherwise, there may be an echo (feedback).

If there is a lot of background noise in the room, please mute your microphone until you want to speak.
