Turn upload time limit

I was thinking...

Stars! is the type of game that can eat up huge amounts of time if you let it. Generally, players with lots of (real world) time on their hands have an advantage over those that don't.

I'm sure that it wouldn't be _too_ difficult to modify Autohost so that it records the time you download your turn, and won't let you upload more than x minutes after that time.

It would be like a blitz game in some respects (you have to think fast) but played at regular game pace (3 - 7 turns per week).

Would anyone be interested in playing this kind of game ?
