I wanted to quickly pull up the thread about the EBU NGS. But apparently I can't because search terms must contain at least 4 letters, ruling out both EBU and NGS. Can you fix this, or suggest what I should do otherwise to solve this problem?

Most forum software disallows short search words as they can be used to overload the database engine.
You can use Google to search the forums, just enter site:www.bridgebase.com at the beginning of your search string.

We're investigating the potential impact of lowering the limit to 3 character words.
