In Response To: Time outs at Nordic Open (Matt Cohn-Geier)

"The other one I only heard about. The player is down to 11 seconds but has an overwhelming position. The other player makes his play but does not hit the clock and he grabbed the dice. That incurs a 30 second penalty and thus he timed out.

This does seem awfully harsh, although he shouldn't have picked up the dice."

This rule does seem rather harsh, I think we should give players a break until players get more used to clocks. ..ie u get one or two "fouls" before calling this penalty. I know that I wouldn't want to win this way unless my opp had grabbed the dice early a few times previously during the match.
