Open to all Ireland flags..message eamongall if you cannot get in. However change to an Ireland South flag and its usually ok.
I think BBO selects the current group of Ireland flags and my followed list at creation of the event so I need to refresh if a person changes from say Northern Ireland to Ireland flag.
Declan Byrne informs me that the Ireland is not a flag but is related to ones IP address.
Some Sunday when there is no mass I might test that out.
If you want to play for first time .. best not arrive at 758pm .. look in earlier and try registering. Tourney is visible from about 615pm.
Be aware that in these days of BBO capacity issues ... (there were 33500 logged on at one stage last night and this is only those inside the front screen. Another 1000 or 2000 or so could be playing on the front page incognito. ) Before the pandemic somewhat below 20000 was peak.
BBO will issue you a warning after a few minutes of inactivity and then log you off if no action. This could happen if you play 2 fast boards and leave the room with 8 minutes of the round left. Sometimes people forget they are in a tournament and get distracted in the house and then they are subbed.
Its just BBO minding its resources not an insult or not me kicking you.

Someone asked about BBO dollars and Prime.
BBO Dollars info
Prime is an upgraded BBO which includes free advanced robots if you are someone who uses robots. I personally used to rent basic robots for 3 dollars a month so Prime at 5 dollars a month is a good deal for me.
An event for Fitzwilliam Tennis Club will run at 1500 hours on Mondays and Thursdays. This event is limited to their members.
It will appear at Competitive ..Free Tournaments from about 1315 hours to accept entries. Be online at 1500 hours or you could get deleted by Bridgebase and Eamon has no control on this.
There is also The Ireland Bridge Club which folk can use as a meeting place if necessary ... Anyone can set a table and maybe folk from Ireland or their own club will join them. This club can be found in Private and Public Clubs on Bridgebase.
