Does anyone know more than what is written on convention card related to 2c/d openings ?
What it says is

2c = art, 20-21 hp bal (5M possible ?) or 25+ bal
gf 5+c/h/s (what about 4441)

2d = art, weak 5+M
gf 5+d

Hmm, not really.

But in ambra you can find a nice write up of 2 as weak or strong. I find it effective and more logical.

I don't know their specifics, but it used to be pretty common here. What do you want to know?

From the convention card;

2
...2 = puppet mostly 4+ => how do they break transfer here, 2=20-21 bal (5s ?), 2= gf 5+ ?, 2nt = artificial, it says ?
...2 = trs, 4+ => similar here
...2 = trs, 6+m
...2nt = art, 5M-5M
...3 = trs, 6+ (but also 2s ?)
...3x = 4441

2
...2M => 2nt = says bal with what does it mean 5332 ? and do they try to rebid with weak openings, thats my understanding

That's non-standard continuations.
2D-2M, 2NT means 6322-type.
