1♣-1♥
1♠-??
1♥= Transfer ♠
1♠=3 card ♠, forcing (12-21)
You agreed to play 2♦ here as 5 card ♠ and limit +.
...I anyone plays this...
What do you bid with 4 card ♠ and a balanced 16HCP?

We play 2♣ here as relay and 2♦ as NF (ie diamonds longer than spades).

If you play 2-way checkback I suppose you could also play it here, i.e. 2♣ as either weak with long diamonds or any invitational hand, and 2♦ as any GF hand. Or transfer checkbacks.

But if you want to have 2♣ available as a natural NF I think you need to play 2♦ as a general force.
The world would be such a happy place, if only everyone played Acol :) --- TramTicket
