ahydra Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 GIB needs a hardcoded "do something sensible" ability to use when the player cuebids any suit where the opponents have shown at least 5(?) cards but it doesn't have an already defined meaning for that bid. So here it would kick in and North should probably bid 3S or 3NT. That said, actually here the bid should have a defined meaning - a good raise of clubs! (Or stopper ask for 3NT) ahydra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper1 Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 I could have lived with either of those defined meanings...but surely without a diamond stop the GIB N should bid 3S or some number of clubs, not 3NT (even if the latter is only 2 down, not six)...and yes lol for jamegumb's contribution :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uday Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Was a bug in the GIB knowledge base. We'll fix it & get a new version out asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calm01 Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Uday, Thanks. Please let us know what bugs are fixed in what release and when. The standard communication with users - like you get with a browser such as chrome or firefox ... Without knowing what has happened and when we forum users do not know if we can employ cue bids with safety. Calm01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arigreen Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I've located and fixed the bug. When we release a new GIB I'll include the description of the fix in the release notes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper1 Posted September 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Thanks. It's good when GIB, unlike real-life partners, admits that it was wrong and promises to change in future :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
