I get your solution but what's confusing me is then how does the owners manually decidning to pull him back make a diffrence. I don't think OOTP allows owners to pull back thier claim on a player. So since they are already in a trade (and on waivers, and claimed) and a third team is trying to block that trade, for whatever reason (they want the player, or they just don't want the other team to have the trade), the options are pull him back or lose him to the claiming team.

I think a better solution would be for online leagues is to have all waiver trades agree to by all the owners outside the game. That way you know up front what it's going to take to get the player through waivers.
