you mean submit your turn to the host in an MP game?

sure, I do it all the time, as I bounce between two locations and two machines. the only thing to watch out for is that if you check up on an already submitted turn (ie. before the game hosts and there is a new turn) from a different machine, it will wipe out the turn you already submitted and you'll have to redo it. I did that once in a huge game w/ 10 minutes left till hosting :O
Im trying to remember but there is something about the difference in the menu between hitting "E" versus hitting "esc". If you hit esc you get an option to "quit without saving" which I believe lets you out of the server without update.
