INTRODUCTION
BridgeTime
is a fully-featured bridge club. It offers a rich playing experience,
complemented by classrooms and tools for teachers, a
library consisting of all the scored boards for the previous
week, a detailed convention card application and a viewer for
all the games ever played on a player's computer.
The
club structure is unique, each room consisting of exactly eight
tables. This allows for hourly tournaments in certain rooms
and for a new form of synchronized bridge in other rooms (where
all eight tables play the same board in a set period of time).
Team
play is supported both socially and competitively (on a
ladder).
A
large set of options is available to the table host: privacy
level, game type (MP, IMP, rubber, Chicago), seat reservations,
level of play (only players with a certain rating or percentile
may be seated).
When
you sit at a competitive table, you have a clear picture of
the expertise level at that table: the club is based on a strong
rating system for both individual players and for participating
pairs. Participation in the rating system is optional.
When
a player has connection problems, the table is notified and
if the problem is severe, the seat in question becomes reserved.
On reconnect, the player can claim the reserved seat. Of course,
the host can always cancel the reservation.
