I was just trying to compete, or maybe overshow my hand somewhat in that maybe it could raise to 6, but I think going for 7 here is kinda ridiculous. I should be able to compete more than that without getting put in a grand.

Absolutely right. One more aspect that we have been banging on about for years in forum posts but still not addressed in v 35

Isn't the system the same in both?

It was advanced GIB, but idk if it matters. In either case, it has too many points to not raise given I showed 29+.

Good topic .Thanks to you.
I am a layman, I just want to express what I see. It seems that there is a failure while you play with/against advanced Gib. Please see my evidences here.
First,let's see your hand :
Result : 7♦SX-1
As for 5♦, perhaps here lacks of the definition, needs to improve it in the future.
Second, see my hand played by basic Gib, and I also think this is a standard bidding sequence, it goes :
Result : 5♠WX-2
After 4♠, north Gib will double for sure, it never pass in fact, however north Gib do pass in your advanced Gib hand, I don't know the reasons.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In fact, here there are no better general agreement on many bidding definitions or there are many interesting things. For example :
Just saying.
