WBF Code of Practice:

"A 'logical alternative' is a different
action that, amongst the class of players in
question and using the methods of the
partnership, would be given serious
consideration by a significant proportion of
such players, of whom it is reasonable to
think some might adopt it.".

EBU Law and Ethics Committee:

>>The L&E is on record as concluding that in many
>>situations a slow bid is more likely to suggest
>>extra values than that the bid is a stretch.
>>However, the L&E doubts that this is a valid
>>conclusion of general application when a player
>>is under pressure at a high level.  Accordingly,
>>although the TD's conclusion that Pass was not a
>>logical alternative does not seem right, it
>>would not have been surprising if the score had
>>been allowed to stand on the basis that the
>>successful action was not suggested by the
>>unauthorised information.

can someone research the (extended) CoP on the 
subject of 'hot seat auctions' ?
