If you are playing against robots and have nothing left in your hand but winners it is still possible to accidentally concede all the remaining tricks.
This is very annoying and has caused me to lose my 25c more than once.
WHY on earth is the default setting "I concede all the remaining tricks"???
If the default was "claim all tricks" and you accidentally clicked it the claim would be rejected - no problem.

If you're on lead from your hand or dummy, the default is to claim all the tricks.
If you're following to the trick, the only option supported is to concede.

thanks barmar.
I can't see why the option is set this way! If you make a flase claim accidentally it is rejected.
If you accidentally concede, it's a disaster.

It is a throwback to the original implementation of GIB as it was programmed prior to when it was bought off the shelf by BBO. BBO have since continued to develop some aspects, but this apparently is nontrivial.
