you hit the  WTF comment  box  pretty well, Todd--thanks!  3 diams on Problem C  is at least   "out of te box grope"  As te "partner doubles for penalty and  I run away with 3 1/2   quicks, and a suit merely better than what i hve shownbare;y

Help!
  I really need a moderator to enlighten us why on problem G,, partner's double is "negative" or whatever the panel is deciding to call it--rather than "for blood. 
My other 2 or 3 fiascos I can live with, but I
have put 'leaving in pard's double'  IN THE BANK on G

Blu, I don't think I would classify it as "negative." Instead, because we have overcalled at the 3-level, clearly we have a good hand. So the double is merely "card showing," allowing us to bid on (as I chose to do), or convert for penalty. I would expect some sort of 4=2=4=3 or 4=1=5=3 or similar---and about 9-10 HCP?

Very hard month I think!

PROBLEM A: 3 Notrump
PROBLEM B: 4 Hearts
PROBLEM C: Pass
PROBLEM D: Double
PROBLEM E: 2 Notrump
PROBLEM F: 3 Clubs
PROBLEM G: Pass
PROBLEM H: Spade Queen

A - X. I think I have to make it clear I don't have the club hand, so X give p flexibility while saying I was going to bid 3nt. If I pass, partner might think I have the weaker club hand, and they have no way to carry on with confidence.
B - 3h - Which is never an invitation to game hand, so p will know not to carry on. This should be even weaker than X, but we have a 9 card fit so should be safe.
C - 3nt - this is a gamble. I considered 3s, but p will never bid 3nt when they don't have a spade fit, so it might encourage a club raise!? I wish there was a way to bid 3d as a "tell me more" bid, but it looks too much like a club raise.
D - 4C I am not letting E-W make a long suited 3nt vulnerable here, so I am going to bite the bullet and bid 4c
E - 2nt - this seems standard, I must be missing something
F - 3H - only two hearts is selling the hand short, 3h is less than 4th suit forcing, so this describes the hand pretty well.
G - 4D - boy do I hate this bid. p can't be X for penalty right? right? so they must have only 2 hearts or less and the other suits. They are passed hand or I would blast to 5d, but just in case I'm leaving room for them to bid 4h.
H - 5d keeping it simple and leading pards opened suit and giving some count hints so that I am not sent to partnership hell if the diamond lead was the correct one all along.
