is there a way to fix claims in indies, where opps wont accept your claims and then you get booted cause you time out?
there should be a way for you to get added back to tourney cause opps arent sure of what they are doing, but what else
is new in the indies :)

Currently you need to play a card (cancelling your claim) if opps won't respond to your claim.

Really, the clock should be clicking for your opponents to time-out if you make a claim.

Often where claiming with giving the opponents tricks causes confusion.
Once doing this I was accused of cheating as the opponent thought i was claiming all the tricks.

Yeah, people don't always read the claims carefully. It's often best to wait until you have all the rest before claiming.

You can enter an explanation when claiming, but in express tournaments that might take too long.
