An IMP score of -- can either be the hand not played or a zero IMP.
> I suggest 0 if the IMP is zero and -- if not played.

Where do we show hands that aren't played?

If you are the only people to have played a hand so far, it shows up as "--". But equally if the IMPs score works out as 0, it also shows a "--", where it ought to show "0". Trivial but annoying, as you have to check the scores on other boards to see if "--" is actually a real score.

"--" is the traditional notation for a "push" board in recaps, which is what an IMP score of 0 is. ACBLScore does the same thing when it shows results for IMP Pair games.
