Names with accented or non-English letters have been converted to an English representation with a 26-letter alphabet. Many people use erratic capitalization, so I determine proper case by algorithm; if this does not correctly display your name, please advise and I will add it to the exception list. If you wish to contact someone whose name you see listed (such as a lost friend) give me permission to send your address to that person, then he or she can contact you. I will not give out e-mail addresses (these are private and go nowhere from me).
Location Ranking
This table lists all the participating locations, ranked by the average score of their entries. The “Best” column shows the best finish (by rank) of any player in that location. Locations with less than five entries are ineligible for the top ranking and grouped separately.

Bot’s Eye View
I posed these bidding problems to some of the well-known bridge computer programs, and the results are tabulated below. (These results are not included in the “number of participants” shown above, nor in the calculation of the median or average score.) Most of the programs had different skill settings (thinking time), and this was set to the highest level. The scores and rankings, based on six specific problems, are not necessarily indicative of each program’s overall capability.
Congratulations to Micro Bridge, which eked out a narrow win with a score of 44. Actually, all the bot scores (well, except for you know who) were closely bunched, but it is significant to note they were all below the average human score. Good. Let’s keep those tin cans in their place.
In a few cases, namely the 2 and 3 bids on Problem 5, the bot’s actual choice was not listed as an option. Were these bids an aberration? Or did they try to spring some special convention out of the blue? Who knows. In any event, my policy is to score these the same as the worst option listed since the bot could never do worse than that if it understood the multiple-choice format.
