Why is it not possible to play multi-player saves over single player?

I was just wondering...I dropped out of a game because some guy was holding it up by never pushing the ready button, and having to wait 40 seconds each turn was a bit annoying. I tried to load the game in single-player, but it says you can't play MP games over SP.

So, I try to load it in Multiplayer, but when I get in back to my civ, the game just sits there and says "Waiting for other civilizations" Any way to fix that? Or to continue the game somehow?
 
To stop one player loading the multiplayer save as a single, playing a few turns with the AI making a mess of everyone's empires, and then resaving it?
