David, that is a good example of 'FOG OF WAR'

On three of the games, when I attempted to delay them, due to an unfortunate typo, I accidentally made them run immediately instead. I then delayed them correctly, but the damage had already been done. Unfortunately, once a turn has been run, there's no good way to un-run it. I could roll the game back, but some players have already seen the results of the new turn, so there's no way to back up in a way that's fair to all.
It's kind of ironic that I made this mistake in light of the above debate over the legitimacy of delaying games at all; but I assure you that it wasn't my intention to spoil the turn in any way. I simply screwed up. The best I can do now is to promise not to enter commands like this in haste again.
