Do not understand why GIB cannot give a hi-lo discard sequence to show a doubleton. On a recent board, with 5 - 2, GIB—in following to my opening lead—played the 2 first and then the 5. I missed giving it a ruff for a much better board.

GIB doesn't signal. It could have been programmed to signal.. but wasn't. Not much else to say :(

Well, other than trying to decide when you should signal, what signal to give, etc, isn't as easy as it sounds. As evidence by the recent Nook AI exhibition, where it totally destroyed WBridge5 by exploiting the fact it signalled too accurately. Not signalling at all is obviously worse, but something GIB players have to learn to deal with.
I have nothing worth contributing, bye
