I believe that there was not enough debate time given, since the posts put into the discussion were very large and that Glen was unable to write a substantial post in the short 18 hours that was given between Minister HumanSanity's last post and their subsequential motion to vote.

Someone actually read my Chair thread in the GC?
Anyway, you can't motion to cancel voting (for this reason and like that). The Chair may prolong the voting process or you may raise an objection.
There is a possibility to motion to cancel voting but for a reason so that The Chair can make revisions to the bill. However, the Chair is limited in that process as well, as the revisions must be of "typographical" nature.

Apologies for any issues, but if you read the piece of law I referenced in the original post you'd know that you can.

Quote:(7) Any legislator may motion to cancel voting and withdraw a bill that has been brought to a vote so revisions can be made. The Chair may cancel voting on the bill, provided that there is a reason deemed sufficient by the Chair and no objection is raised within 24 hours of the motion being made and seconded. Should the motion and seconding be made within the final 24 hours of voting, the legislation shall not pass or fail until the Chair makes a ruling on the motion.
