3NT. Would pass at any other vul, though.

I'll pass. No certainty of a game and likelyhood of 1-2 down, maybe more.

Plus, we can live with any lead pard makes (if he leads a spade, it will probably be from a sequence, given we didn't bid spades).

Ugly problem, but I go with 3 NT too. The hand is too good for any kind of slam to pass and not one suited enough for diamond bids.

Pass. No guarantee we are making anything and no source of tricks.

Pass also, for the Hog's reasons. The fact that we are vul will be of mild interest if 3NT doesn't make.

Very hard problem. If I knew partner had a heart void I would bid diamonds, if I knew he had a singleton I would bid 3NT (hoping for RHO to have a stiff heart honor) and if I knew he had a doubleton I would pass. I'll try pass since it could also work out well if he has a singleton. I hope we don't make 6♦ or something.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
