Hey, I am trying to work on my defence (in Soviet Russia, defence works on YOU) and I got reminded of inquiry's awesome defensive series.

They appeared on the forums first, but some of the diagrams are gone. Luckily for us, they are all archived here:

"B/I" (more like I/A) problems start here: https://webutil.brid...etch.php?id=795
A/E problems start here: http://webutil.bridg...etch.php?id=799
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Nice problems, but unfortunately when viewing the solution pages on my PC/Win10/Chrome the suit symbols in the text do not display properly, I get things like "declarer has ♥AK109". No such issue on the problem pages. Anyone have any idea how to fix that?

I think we just have to learn to read different encodings :)

It should be possible to spot the difference between problem and question pages, and maybe eliminate it.
Or it might be so trivial as me installing some font?
I see that Chrome is blocking some non-secure scripts invoked by https://webutil.bridgebase.com, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
