Scoring: IMP

West (here north) overcalls 2 and East (here south) raises to 3 if he can.

I was originally going to have 6 as the top spot, and could be easily talked back into it, but 3NT is just such a solid contract, and 6 is only making in the low 70% range, I couldn't justify giving it a 10 score (even 0.75*12 is only 9)


3NT = 9; 6C = 8; 3Sx=6; 5C=4; 5N=2

is 6 really that good? Looks like you have 1 (maybe 2) heart losers, in addition to finding the club K. Again, double dummy, declarer will always get this right, and along with finding the right play in diamonds (to avoid a second heart loser), but in real life, 6 making is probably much less than 50%.

Edit: since nobody bid 6, it's probably a moot point. I just don't see how it can score that high.
Is the word "pass" not in your vocabulary?
So many experts, not enough X cards.
