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).

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.

*Not to exceed 30 seconds per bid. Thinking time is also used to break ties, with the advantage to the bot that was faster.

Congratulations to Micro Bridge (Japan) which topped the bots with solid score of 50. The only other bot to top the average human score was Jack (Netherlands) with 47.

Several of the problem conditions were unfair to the bots, which accounted for some of the mediocre scores. On Problem 4, there was no way to convey the unusual treatment that 3 was forcing (bots cannot read footnotes) and four bots reasonably chose to pass. Similarly, on Problem 2, Q-plus Bridge chose to double for takeout when my note explicitly said it was penalty. Obviously, my problems would be designed differently if bot tests were the main objective; but they’re for people, so bots have to play along as best they can. Sorry, tin cans! Look at the bright side; you could be in a scrap metal heap.

The bots were well behaved this month. The only errant call (besides HAL’s antics) came on Problem 5 from GIB, which must be running on testosterone chips instead of silicon, as it jumped to 7 . Right on the money, too, for the actual hand! I decided to award this 4, as it’s a better stab than bidding 3 NT or 4 ; plus I like its style.

HAL was ornery this month (nothing really new) as it wouldn’t select a bid on Problem 6 but answered “F” instead. I figured HAL had confused the problem with one of my “A-F options” and asked if it really meant the sixth listed choice. Alas, no; and running a family web site, I can’t even repeat what HAL said it stood for.
