Better. Now delete “over another,” change “could have been” to “is,” change the preceding clause to a separate paragraph stating that extraneous information from partner is unauthorized, and in this clause change “extraneous” to “unauthorized.” How ’bout this? Extraneous information that may suggest a call or play includes remarks, questions, replies to questions, unexpected* alerts or failures to alert, unmistakable hesitation, unwonted speed, special emphasis, tone, gestures, movements, and mannerisms. Extraneous information from partner is unauthorized. A player may not choose a call or play that is demonstrably suggested by unauthorized information from his partner unless there is no logical alternative. A logical alternative is one that a significant proportion of the class of players in question, using the methods of the partnership, would seriously consider, and some might select.
