In this case I could setup something that allowed upload to a different port, or by webpage, or by email. And then set up some sort of check routine for IF the timer runs out and IF xxxxxx nation has not uploaded to the primary port and IF they have a provisional turn file THEN copy the provisional file into place before HOSTing.

I take that back. Its impossible. But that was fun. Thanks for the idea. Maybe some game. Some really monstrously large long-running game like using all 93 nation slots on a 1500 province map.

So, you would (in theory) write a script that runs on the dom3minions server? Does that mean you have root-level access? Who owns that server, anyway?
