True, it might seem logical, and I'd LOVE to see something like this implemented, but from my limited experience in programming in general, this sounds like it'd be somewhat akin to a nightmare to code.

What would be nice is to have an additional failure code. Something like "This song was played at 0-dark-thirty" or something like that. This way, instead of just getting a failed message, it'd give a bit of a reason WHY it failed. Of course, then there'd have to be an additional entry in the database for 'last time this song was played' and the request system would need to query that field.

We're talking about some fairly significant changes to SAM.

Unless there's some sort of plugin or extensibility that I'm not aware of (me? Not aware of something? Surely you jest (and don't call me shirly))

T'would be nice....don't know how possible, but nice...
