Spell Casting

Earlier today, I had completed the second portion of Darkmoor. One of the blokes on my team, during the Shane battle, had clicked a spell, but it completely skipped him when he did it. I thought he may have had a slow computer or something, until the same exact thing happened to me a few rounds later. It showed that I selected a spell. However, when my turn comes around, I pass. This happened twice, in which the game thought I was in Idle Mode because apparently it didn't register that I was selecting cards.

Another thing about the cards is that after I received a wand, I went to go test it out in Unicorn Way (you know, to see the damage that I can get off of it), and at one point, I had clicked on a spell and a target, and the clock just kept counting down like nothing was selected (and yes, I was in a lone battle). I think I switched my choice, and the clock worked like normal again, immediately casting it after selected.

If you could take a look into these two things, it would be much appreciated! Thank you!

I have been in Darkmoor many times and had the game put me on idle for no reason. It sometimes goes around several times before it lets me cast a spell again. It makes me go GRRRRR. when that happens. Especaily if I am needed to cast a heal at the time. Oh Well. Not sure if it is happening to anyone else because I have not heard anyone else in any of my teams complain of this. So I just don't know if I am doing something wrong to trigger this. I have never seen a GO IDLE button or choice. But occasionally a pop up comes up that says RETURN TO BATTLE? So whats up with this? I never went out of battle. All I know is I really hate it when it happens. another thing that happens to me a lot is not being able to cast a spell on a certain person within or team. Like last night I wanted to put a shield on a person with low health. It would not let me put it on him. Instead I tried putting it on myself to see if it would work then. Sure enough I was able to cast it on myself but not on the person who needed it. Go Figure!
