¶ Bridge Champ Web — Release 2026.8.2
¶ Faster and smoother
- Faster loading throughout the site, most noticeably on tournament results and payment history.
- Smoother live updates in large tournaments and games.
¶ Gameplay and scoring
- Comparing your board score with another player now shows the true head-to-head difference between the two of you, not the difference against the whole field.
- You can now set an end time when creating a challenge.
- The bidding review panel now shows a notice while the declarer and dummy seats are temporarily switched, clarifying that the auction is displayed as originally made.
- Minibridge: challenges now offer the leave-table button, and results of very old games open without errors.
¶ Watching and vugraph
- When kibitzing a single player, you can now display the cards they and the dummy have already played, shown dimmed — matching the mobile app.
- Watchers and kibitzers now get the right between-boards message, bid alerts entered by a vugraph operator are credited to the player, and kibitzers see hands ordered with trumps first.
- Vugraph: room names can now be translated, the room-switch labels are readable on light backgrounds, session lists no longer briefly show another tab's data, and the filter buttons are centered.
- Cancelling a running vugraph session now cleans up its intermediate results, so the round's match results display correctly.
¶ Clubs and directors
- Club managers can now import the ACBL membership file and export tournament results in the ACBL's USEBIO format, including stratification and player masterpoint data.
- Deal source uploads of PBN and LIN files from teaching tools now import correctly: auctions without card play, board lines with leading player-name tags, and boards dealt out of the standard rotation.
¶ Interface polish and fixes
- A batch of interface polish: clearer Pass bids on the green table, a head-to-head challenge History button on player profiles, countdowns shown in days for far-off events, tournament results opening on the latest round, and several small display and dialog fixes.
- Fixed the Leave button of the game menu being pushed off screen on tablets.
- Fixed saving the profile gender field when the site language is not English.
