Pass for me as well. If I had a third diamond, I would seriously consider 3N.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

+1 as long as I can do it smoothly which I think I can in this case.

IMO...
Pass = 10, 3N = 8, 4♣ = 7.

Looks unanimous. The full hand:

Agree/disagree with partner's pass in the balancing seat? I agreed then and I still think it looks a little thin vulnerable, but I'm not confident about this. Is this just a "preempts work" hand? +100 wasn't terrible, but there were a surprising number of pairs in club contracts scoring 130 or 150.

Nobody trying 3N if partner doubles ? As little as Axxx, J10xx, x, K10xx makes it excellent.

Agreed partner should double.

Not sure 3NT is good. A simulation tells me pard will have ♣K and one of ♠A or ♥AQ only about 26% of the time. And I'm not even demanding that he has 4 clubs.
