Arena challenge.



Ignore the normal 'idiotic' GIB plays, like ducking the first club.

Fastforward to trick 11.

GIB holds AQJ as its last three cards in a no trump contract. I play the K, and GIB ducks.

GIB is broken. If BBO don't have the resources to fix GIB, please please please open it up to more people.

Sad times :( Though I personally don't agree with your sentiment If BBO don't have the resources to fix GIB, please please please open it up to more people.

If a restaurant had a poor hygiene rating would you encourage people to go there?

Whilst GIB should be allowed occasional errors, when they are fundamental errors like the two shown (and why should we Ignore the normal 'idiotic' GIB plays, like ducking the first club?) then I totally agree with your opinion GIB is broken.

I think what he meant was, open up the source code / bidding database so that others can contribute fixes.

Yep. The restaurant has a bad rating, it doesn't seem to be improving, and there is a large crowd outside knocking on the door asking if they can help ;)
