Question from a player pre-tournament today:

You agree to play with a player from the partnership desk and agree to play his convention card. How do you get a copy of partner's CC to peruse in the minutes remaining before the tournament starts?

Maybe go together to a Casual table, where the person with the CC can post it.

In principle a good suggestion. However, until BBO link the Casual and Tournament servers together better the pair risks not being available at the start of the tournament.

Yes, then a “team game” table would be suitable.

The one who has the CC saves it with partner's name. Then both can see and edit it (under partner's name in CC list)

What he said-in the account-convention card section. Then the card will be available to opponents when you actually play!

To get this to work under V3 Windows 10/Chrome, after the share by partner I had to logoff then logon for the CC to appear under "Personal Cards".
