I do not know how many share the same sentiment..but sometimes a tourney is scheduled and the club manager is otherwise engaged....as the director ..you would like a nice turnout ..but let's face it ...sometimes a special appeal may be needed to remind members...(to me ... blush) it is embarrasing to send periodical reminders and appeals through the lobby ...i.e in the absense of an authorised (unavoidably detained) manager....Can it be arranged for members of a club to be given that privellage to send messages only to their club members?...This would be a handy tool for a TD who needs to appeal to his fellow club members, in the absence of the manager, to come to play a club tourney..even when you are playing a club game i.e in the club itself and you would like to appeal to members of that club, who are in the lobby, but do not want to crowd the lobby with messages..after all you just want to speak to members from your club.......what sayeth thee...

I think it is an important step to clamp down on lobby chat...as this can be very annoying...so much so that I have checked "ignore lobby chat"

Also If a club manager would like to share the club list so that he can be assisted in that regard ...club tourneys exclusive to members...can that be arranged via bbo software?

BBO is a very great Bridge Family ..in my opinion the best place to play bridge ...and have constantly been improving...making incredible strides....I am always amazed with the changes ...surly some of these minor issues can be addressed..

Please advise as I may not be aware of some of the features that the software is capable of...

That is my normal setting.
I only change it when looking for an team game to play.
