Okay, so if I'm understanding the situation, someone rushes a turn to avoid skipping the deadline. But then wants to "un-submit" that turn? Why? To skip it? Hit over head

nah, he was chatting with me after he subbed and remembered something Razz

Now what would be really useful is a "placeholder upload" so partial or skeleton turns could be uploaded (just in case, to avoid skipping) but not risk triggering an early gen. Deal

Those "placeholders" should probably be clearly marked as such in the game page. Tweaking SAH to allow them shouldn't be too hard, either. Work at computer

so, the point would be a backup submit to meet a deadline but won't trigger the gen?

Magic's the last to submit.

He just wanted to unsubmit, make some quick changes and then resubmit.

Let me get this straight... He was the last to submit, and instead of making sure everything was in order he submitted his turn... Then, moments later, he found out or remembered something he forgot and he wanted to stop it?

Yup..

Though to be fair, he didn't ask an unsubmit button for this reason.
I think he wants a temp submit option (for dynamic gen games), like m.a. suggested, or a shift to a static time gen game.

I know my minefields.. but I'm a chaff sweeper.
I used to curse when I got stuck in traffic... till I realised I AM traffic.
