have a disclaimer to that effect on our conevntion card.)
 
Me too. That's what the "general style" box is for.
I'd welcome an "official" checkbox on CCs : "point ranges absolute /
adaptable / loose".
 
This case is among the most obvious ; anybody who plays club tournaments
should know 3d-seat preempts are adaptable. And anyway I bet that if opener
s hand had contained a seventh heart and a little less in high-card strength
 the contract would have been made, too.
 
However, some cases are less classical ; pairs that use lightish takeout
doubles or 2/1, for example, should be careful to mention it in plain sight.
 
Best regards
