I realize I should have made the contract but this has to be a database bug, yes? I'm going to have to make five clubs to justify not bidding game.

Brilliant - who was South during the bidding?

Yeah, it looks like while GIB has a definition for xx as South, it doesn't define xx by North. Advanced robots will continue with a jump to 3 followed by a 3NT signoff so won't get stuck in this case, though the xx should be defined nonetheless.

When I test this on BBO the explanation of Pass and 2 for South is the same (No Major), but neither is telling anything about s.

If I Pass as in the example North also Pass, and if I bid 2 north jumps to 3N without any concern for -stopper.

After 2 denying major 3 is now 5+.

The problem here is that the bot in this situation have no way to check for stopper
