1) Pass
2) Pass
3) 4NT
It is not obvious to me whether we are the partner of the 4♥ bidder or the 4♠ bidder on (2), but I pass anyway - would have bid 4♠ if partner is the 4♠ bidder.

That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

Pass, Pass (after the corrected bidding sequence), 6NT (4NT if my partner might open with 19 or I'm too scared).

(1) Pass. Any game seems to need fairly specific cards, and we probably don't have any way to investigate which game is best.
(2) Pass. I've no reason to think we were making four hearts, or that they're going down. [edited after the auction was corrected]
(3) I use my systemic method for showing a balanced slam try with five clubs. If I don't have one of those, maybe I should have?

... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

1. pass, obvious
2. double, it is mps and I guess that both strechted and 3 is the limit.
3. I would ask for a fit if possible. If I cannot find a fit, I would invite with 4 NT.

1] pass
2] pass
3] depends on what systems are available for example if I try 4NT will partner accept with a number of aces response? If I try 3♠ will partner qbid an acceptance and with 3NT and 4NT to play?

I see no reason not to use Puppet on the third, 99% of experts play that.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

1. pass. maybe they bid 4 looool
2. pass and it's pretty obvious. You have neither hcp nor fit!!
3. 6NT, unless pard has a flirt for opening 2NT on 19 counts.

Double is ok on the first one if 2♠ is really 8-12. It would be better if they were vul but they might go down two. Straightforward pass and 4NT on the other two.

What makes ♣ worth showing- its not a great shape to give an option on contract maybe with singleton ace and those clubs then it maybe a decent alternative.
