There is a bug in the explanations of bids presented in the review of completed hands, when examined through the Flash player interface.

If you mouse over the bid in the far right column of the auction table (not sure, but this may always be South's bid?) and the explanation is fairly lengthy, then it gets truncated.
Psych (pron. saik): A gross and deliberate misstatement of honour strength and/or suit length. Expressly permitted under Law 73E but forbidden contrary to that law by Acol club tourneys.

Psyche (pron. sahy-kee): The human soul, spirit or mind (derived, personification thereof, beloved of Eros, Greek myth).
Masterminding (pron. mPosted ImagesPosted ImagetPosted Imager-mPosted ImagendPosted Imageing) tr. v. - Any bid made by bridge player with which partner disagrees.

"Gentlemen, when the barrage lifts." 9th battalion, King's own Yorkshire light infantry,
2000 years earlier: "morituri te salutant"

"I will be with you, whatever". Blair to Bush, precursor to invasion of Iraq

Not that I object, but I am curious to know why this thread was moved from the "Suggestions for the Software" forum to the "BBO Support" forum. I am not seeking support. in fact I know that there is none currently available for the problem stated. I seek an amendment to the software.

There was once (probably over a year ago) a long discussion of this. It happens only for South, and only when the player is using the Flash client, not the Windows client.

A bug report is not a suggestion for a new feature.
