And what do you think would be posted there? I won money? I lost money? Gib sucks? Looking for "opponents?"?
Just curious cause I don't think there would be enugh material to keep such a forum open. I am willing to be convinced otherwise.

how GIB works and how to exploit its power and its weakness too.
And it could be a promotion force for GIB money bridge too.
more people talk about it, more people will try, make sense?

I doubt there would be enough traffic to warrant a forum of its own.
But why not just have a thread here in general discussion that goes on and on about the topics mentioned and others we think of as time goes by. To find it easily in the list we could name the thread "MONEY BRIDGE FORUM #1 and when it has a bunch of chat in it someone can say "too many posts, I'm opening #2" and start MONEY BRIDGE FORUM #2. If we get enough traffic to open #2, that's the time to start asking for a separate forum outside the general discussion area into which the two threads here would be moved to start it off.
As for what we can discuss in our thread (forum), #1 is Arrows' idea and I propose #2 and #3 for your consideration. Please notice that nowhere in this list is a suggestion for "I won X" or "Phooey I lost X" posts. :-)
1. How GIB Works (including how to exploit its power and deal with its weaknesses).
2. Problems With GIB (including HOW GIB LIES to partner**)
3. Tall Tales About GIB (all the fun stuff, share stories of hands won or lost with or without the help of GIB, etc.)
** I was at a table just now where GIB did a second X and the explanation to partner included "3+ clubs" in describing the hand. My human opponent bid 3 clubs. Hand passed out. (I was NOT about to X it with Kxxxx of clubs). The dummy GIB put down had a singleton club! GIB lies. LOL.)

how gib works?
the 4-5 real secrets for example the "timebomb double", never will be discussed because they are too precious.
