Hi,

It'd be nice if singletons were played automatically after, say, a few seconds delay. This would stop people from "thinking" when holding a singleton.

For sure this has to be done on the last trick of a hand, as there is no point waiting for people with bad/broken connections (especially in a tournament). Also, this also must be done when dummy is holding a singleton.

But I suggest you do it in all other occassions as well! (after a couple of secs delay)

Cheers,

Pedja.

Autoplay of singletons used to be an option on one's profile. It doesn't seem to be available any more. I only used it a couple of times. It was too obvious that a singleton had been played, so I turned it off.

Maybe there could be an option "Autoplay last trick".

This has been discussed a few times. Its nice when posters search through previous posts first to see if their topic has been discussed. Search button is on top right hand side--there are 4 icons--click the one that looks like a magnifying glass.

When you search a topic, be sure to change date default to "any date" so more results will be returned.
