I suppose that over 3N, you could try 4♣ but it is hard to persuade GIB to co-operate sensibly in slam auctions.
Conversely, when opponents bid a confident 4♠ and you risk a daring sacrifice in 5♦, a hitherto somnolent GIB, can wake up and raise to 6♦ on a load of mince
In the Event 15 challenge tournament, however, GIB has a 100% record against me, so who am I to criticize
Playing with a regular partner, the auction might start 1♦ - 2N - 4♠ -- assuming that is exclusion or an auto-splinter by agreement.
