How this works: at the start of the year, we make a file from the January ACBL database, with over 30,000 players from Districts 18, 19, and 20. Then, after results are confirmed, we add the results text to a growing text file of results for tournaments, IMP League results, Unit Games, and Mentor-Mentee games. The Python code reads the opening lines of each event and determines which type of event it is and then checks all entries for ACBL numbers (or names where none are listed) and masterpoints won, adding it to the pertinent lists. Once all the results are in, the results are sorted and each masterpoint race is updated on this HTML page.
To claim a free play, let the director know as you buy your entry. Free plays on Entry Express, the pre-arrival entry buying site, is not yet an easy possibility. Unit free plays are not transferable. Beginning in 2023, Bruce McIntyre is keeping track of masterpoint winner free plays used at sectionals and Unit Games, so no certificates or letters will be given out.
The three lists below include the following Unit 430 trophy races:
HOW 2020-22 WAS HANDLED: The cancellation of offline tournaments in March 2020 caused some special decisions to be made for the 2020, 2021, and 2022 races. Monthly Unit Games were quickly reinstated online, and the online MUG games were rescored in ACBLScore with MUG masterpoints and continued to be tabluated. This means that masterpoints listed on the ACBL site or on the BBO lists were NOT the masterpoints applying to the MUG race. In most cases players were credited with considerably more points for the race than the BBO or ACBL lists indicated, since online games were scored as regular club games run by the online version of the VBC. The objective was to have each game count equally as it would if the games were all offline, all rated as MUG games and dependant on attendance, not dependant on which games happened to fall on special game weekends; and to fix the BBO stratification algorithm that divides the field into three equally sized groups, even if no TD would ever choose those strat boundaries in real life.
The other races included the events from January-February 2020 and the remainder of 2022 when offline bridge restarted with the Spring 2022 sectional. Free play coupons won in 2019 were extended and will still be accepted as players return to live play at their own pace.
ALERT: to be eligible to win a prize for any race (including the Unit ones mentioned here, and the ACBL-wide ones some of us track every night...) you need to be a paid up member of the ACBL by the time the race ends. (We're OK if you joined mid-year.) However, for year-long races with a masterpoint limit, what counts is how many you had at the start of the year. Unit 430 also reserves the right to restrict limited awards for players who have had significant experience in another National Bridge Organization before joining the ACBL. Members who have been suspended or placed on probation for any part of the year are not eligible by ACBL bylaws.
