Or.... consider it another call for the "soft timer" system that has been suggested many times over the years: having the time on the turn clock run down to 0 not end the turn automatically, but instead give the opponent an "End Turn" button that they can use to end that turn at any time. It means turns last as long as your opponent allows you to take, and covers both timer extension AND all the pause issues, making everything based on a friendly agreement between coaches.It's pretty specific, I'll add it in the community wishlist. That's the first time I see it suggested though, meaning it's not going to be at the top of the list.
A couple of times the "soft timer" was mentioned:
October 2015
January 2016
February 2016
How far back do suggestions have to go to BE at the top of the list? ;)
