If you're not going to teach the bots any followups to positive responses then it would be better if they always bid 2♦ waiting.

This is atrocious! It may stem from the explanation of the positive response as being forcing to 2NT when it obviously is GF.

Where are the 14-16 HCP shown by its horrid 6NT bid?

One wonders why if blasting to slam it didn't blast to slam in ♠ where's there's at least a known 8+ card fit?

Forcing to 2N?! Do Gib programmers not think it can make 3N with only 30 pts?:blink:

Feel free to remove a couple of jacks :)

Seriously though, it is as ridiculous as everyone is saying.
