So i am looking for a pairs tournament where i am allowed to play.

I go to all tournaments. Scroll through the first few pages that are either indys or where i am obviously not allowed.

Then i find one that might be relevant. I click on it and go to the partnership desk to see if i can add myself. Not because i want to use the pd but because it is the easiest way to check. In 80-90 % of the time it turns out i am not allowed so back to the list and start scrolling from the top.


It would be nice to have a list of tournaments one is elegible for. And. to be able to list just pairs tournaments.
The world would be such a happy place, if only everyone played Acol :) --- TramTicket

Said by many in the past (I was once even told it was difficult to fix), do not hold your breath.

True, it is literally impossible for a computer program to match your user handle to eligible tournaments and then only allow you to see the ones that you're eligible for.
That's why I can access all the files on the Pentagon database even though they keep asking me not to.
