Extension summary

During the bidding, conventional calls must be alerted and explained to the opponents. Playing artificial bidding systems on BBO is not practical because explaining each alerted call is time consuming and therefore frustrating for all participants.

BBOalert solves this problem. Artificial bidding sequences can be predefined in a table. Opponents get the explanation automatically and immediately. Explanations entered manually during the game are recorded for future use.

This add-on is compatible with Linux, Windows and Android platforms.

I've been using BBOalert for a couple of months. I really, really like it. It allows me to automate most alerts and frees me to focus on the game. The best part is that the developer is available to help and/or respond to your suggestions. Stan's the man!!

This is excellent for people who play a relay system. If you have a system fully documented via Full Disclosure, you can use BBOAlert to provide your opponents with full explanations of all your relay sequences, saving endless typing. Also ideal for bidding practice and learning relay.
