*********************************************************************************************************
On a Monday evening the tournament room (labelled MANSFD 1-D-3) opens at 6.45pm. The next 15 minutes is available for you and your partner to get sorted and sit in the tournament room. The session starts at 7.00pm prompt – the system will not accept any further admissions to the room after this time so be punctual! You should endeavour to get seated as early as possible as any half table remaining at 7.00pm is (sadly) removed from the tournament.
The Tournament begins by pairs entering the room and sitting down as pairs. The first person of a PAIR, sits at a table by pressing "Start a Table". The Partner, enters the room, looks for their partner and then sits at that table as a partner and both confirm SSD's. Make sure that at least one player in each pair has highlighted the "Ready" option (in yellow). For some reason the system will not let all 4 players select "Ready". The server does all the rest by completing full tables with those pairs that are ready.
The system automates the movement so do NOT try to leave when a set of boards has been completed. Whatever happens on your screen please be patient while you are waiting for your next opponents. The system will complete your table when they are available. There will be 18 boards in total.
