Closing the project might be a way but then the link is gone too. I will look into it when I get home (I'm on the move atm).

Sorry all, escpecially my fellow competing coders. Please share your view like @jackburton, so we can figure this out. If you agree that this was not fair I will retreat from the competition.

Edit: According to the statistics 24 people already downloaded the 0.1.0 already. Nothing I can do about this either. Will post a screenshot of this with timestamp later when I'm home..
Definitely don't retreat. I was just explaining my opinion on the matter

Is your package in extras-dev?

You could always repackage the old code as a newer version in the repo so that people will either get downgraded (if they install updates) and new people will get the original upon first install from extras-dev.
