Can you create and direct multiple team matches simultaneously?

Not by default.

And in the present climate I doubt that BBO will give anyone the privileges to do it.

Is it even possible to score (plus is the movement available) multiple teams on BBO? Or Swiss Pairs? (I am wondering because these are not standard offerings in North America).

Multiple Teams, no. Well, you can run them, but you have collect the results and do the scoring on your own.

Swiss Pairs, yes, we call them Swiss. THey are actually Danish, I believe in all rounds. Rare, but may happen.

But what about the movement? Would you have to set up numerous 2-board team matches every round?

Yuk I don’t like Danish. But I do enjoy Swiss Pairs; it would be nice if the EBU organised one. I love how brutal it is — an overtrick can lose the whole match rather than just the one hand. It’s like matchpoints on steroids.
