They have quickly become a must for many of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have also taken the\u00a0<strong>multiplayer mode<\/strong>\u00a0to a whole new level. Now you can not only play, but also chat and see each other, with friends or in competition, to score points in certain federations, a step forward that we knew many of you were looking forward to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great new feature is the\u00a0<strong>Bridge Points Circuit<\/strong>, which is included in the Premium+ subscription plan. In just two months, it has won over a large part of the community by offering an extra challenge and replacing the traditional Funbridge Points. There is no doubt that the live, 2025 and monthly rankings will be full of surprises and battles next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, we wanted to go one step further to support bridge learning and teaching. Thanks to new dedicated tools, teachers and clubs can extend their activities right into the players\u2019 homes, helping to maintain the link that is so dear to our community. And what about special events? Super 13, themed tournaments and formats for beginners are just some of the initiatives that, thanks to you, have met with great success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A constant focus on bridge<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All these new features are part of our mission: to offer you a gaming experience that matches your passion. Once again, this year, every decision and every improvement has been guided by the desire to put your enjoyment at the heart of our approach. We know how important this game is to you, and we want every game you play on Funbridge to reflect that passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A huge thank you<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>None of this progress would have been possible without you. Your loyalty and feedback &#8211; whether enthusiastic or critical &#8211; are essential to the development of Funbridge. Some of you have been with us for over 10 years. Rest assured that this trust means a lot to us, and we are fully committed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To all of you, a huge thank you for your ideas, your comments and for the energy you bring to this ever-growing community. You are the true strength of Funbridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, as we embark on this new year, let&#8217;s all continue to bring this magnificent game of bridge to life, in a spirit of conviviality, competition and sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wish you all a very happy holiday season, and of course, many great games on Funbridge!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">All the best,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><strong>Pierre DREULLE &#8211; Funbridge Director.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/dreulle.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-104542\" style=\"width:150px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/dreulle.jpg 512w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/dreulle-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/dreulle-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few words from the Funbridge Director.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":104546,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14893],"tags":[14481],"access":[],"class_list":["post-104545","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-funbridge-news","tag-bridge-news"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":5}},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Happy holiday season!
