....I should mention that just about all of my bidding knowledge is based on duplicate, which is mainly concerned with getting to game (3NT, 4H, and 4S in particular) and not so concerned with it making; rubber games have more emphasis on the partscores.

Correct for rubber bridge, but that's probably not what they're playing. I'm guessing they're just playing 'points' and that's actually the scoring method for which emphasis on part scores should be the lowest
