McBruce's District 19 Regional Daily Bulletins

Two pdf versions of each Daily Bulletin will be posted here: one for viewing on screen, and another for printing.  If you try to view the print version, or print the view version, you will get pages out of order.  To print you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader and a printer capable of printing both legal-sized (8½ by 14 inches) and letter sized (the normal 8½ by 11 inches) paper.  To view you need only Adobe Acrobat Reader.  If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader, go here for the free download.  You'll need this program to read and print the files.  (Most will find it already installed on their system -- there are versions for Windows and Mac and other operating systems.)

The left hand date column will turn green when an edition is ready for download.  (If you try a link when it's red, get ready for an error message...)  The background colour in the last two columns show the colour of paper used for the cover.  If you want to print a good facsimile, get some legal sized paper of that colour for the cover sheet.  Online issues, containing Sunday results and photos, and final masterpoint leaders, should be ready Monday morning, or possibly earlier.  I try to get the results up before they appear on the ACBL site...

I do keep all of the photos I have taken for Daily Bulletins and I would be glad to send you a copy of those I have taken before May 2008.  (For photos taken since then, see the next paragraph.)  Just send me an e-mail listing the photos you want, by Daily Bulletin issue, date, page number, and subject.

Photos now available online! We post photos taken at ImageEvent.com, where you can order them, download them, or just have a quick look for fun.  For older photos, contact me by e-mail.

Each Bulletin is actually two separate pdf files. One pdf file is the cover sheet only, to be printed on coloured LETTER-sized paper (which colour? check the background colour of the link box -- but I usually don't decide until the beginning of the week of the tournament, leaving it gray until then), and the other pdf file is the central booklet, to be printed on white LEGAL-sized paper.  If you only want to view the Daily Bulletins on screen, choose the View-On-Screen version, which is the entire booklet all together.

ALERT: My apologies to those who waited for Wednesday pair game results.  Commuting on public transit between the host hotel, the only 24 hour printer in Vancouver, and my apartment is giving me a LOT less time to get things done, and the focus has to be on the Bulletins first.
