Perhaps utterly deranged.

2s!? Lack of double of 1n!?

2s even more incomprehensible since I am known to not even hold 3s
What is the matter with 3D if it feels it simply has to bid?

J854 is an excellent suit. Not quite good enough to jump rebid 3 so that's why 2 was chosen.

IMO
- GIB used to bid better but recent ad hoc tinkering (to address specific issues) has introduced more bugs than it fixed.
- What GIB needs is a new bidding program, specifying bids in open-source readable tables (e.g. FD or Kungsgeten's mark-up). This would help to increase coverage and to avoid stupid mistakes. It would also allow GIB to understand opponents' bidding (when presented in that new format); and to play its partner's preferred system.
- GIB would be much better if it underwent rigorous regression-testing after each fix -- to mitigate the introduction of new bugs,

a simple regression-check would be pysch-detection: high-light cases where the systemic description of a call differs widely from the actual hand (as in Goffster's example). Sometimes there is a tactical argument for a psych; but rarely in uncontested constructive auctions; and GIB should be especially careful to avoid CPUs :)

I would like to add, it was robot that bid 2s, not me. :)
