Tellurium 74 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 Since I'm running kinda late I gotta ask this about the deadline: is the 6PM EDT on the 16th, or the 15th? 'Cause I don't know if you mean midnight as in the time right after 11:59 PM on the 15th, or the time right after 11:59 PM on the 16th (one's technically right, the other's more practically right).

JonasDarkmane 19,785 August 14, 2015 Share August 14, 2015 I am looking forward to seeing all the art. Seeing all the art of my ancestors.... I hope you don't draw horns on the helmets, because Vikings did not actually have horns on their helmets (nah, you can draw horns if you want ). Good luck everybody 2 Signature by @Kyoshi Ask Me Matsunaga Hisahide's death https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKT5Khp3-0U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeric 46,851 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 but the main post says August 16th at 6pm EDT EDT is the second listed time so it is subservient to the first listed time and in relationship to the listed date (to which it is also subservient) with the first listed time. Of course parenthetical notation may have made that clear ... but you can't have different deadlines for different timezones. That would give North Americans an extra day. Surely you didn't think that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you didn't think that. Why list it as August 16th at 6pm then if it's "subservient" to GMT +1 midnight (which is two different points of time 24 hours apart) and not just say August 15th at 6pm? I'm not the only person confused by this and I don't live in any of the African countries that observes GMT +1 as a main reference of time, so I was trusting the information on the main post to be correct as August 16th at 6pm. Don't be cryptic about times and dates, just be straight yo. Edited August 15, 2015 by Melon Blitz 1 http://nogonip.tumblr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be cryptic about times and dates, just be straight yo. I think it goes without saying that there was no intention of being cryptic. That said confusion next time could be reduced by listing one timezone and giving a link to ether a countdown timer or a global clock conversion. Then it takes any math or questions out when there's a link that just shows exactly when that one timezone given is. I understand why they gave multiple timezones, but it can be confusing sometimes. I had the assumption I had another day, but I prepared for today, which was a lucky call I didn't procrastinate any extra.. 1 Eat More Books || Tribute To The Overlord - My In-Alpha Card Game || |||| Commission Meh || DeviantArt || Tumblr || Picarto |||| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the assumption I had another day, but I prepared for today, which was a lucky call I didn't procrastinate any extra.. It's fine to list multiple time zones, just list them with the correct date and time. Listing definitive due dates for US paciffic time, US eastern, United Kingdom, Germany, Australia would probably have been enough. It is confusing to say "Here's GMT +1 midnight, go figure out the time for yourself good luck." Without trying to be rude, that's not our "job," that's the event organizer's responsibility to present the information neatly and clearly. It would be great if they honored the time they listed as August 16th 6pm EDT. I've been working on my piece every day for the past week, and I legitimately planned out my schedule thinking I had an entire 24 hour day to finish it off, but I just learned I only have 2 hours. This is expected something like this would happen, it is the first art contest and there's going to be mistakes and miscommunication. Can't say I'm too thrilled though.

Stardust* 3,302 August 15, 2015 Share August 15, 2015 For this being the first contest it ran really smoothly. There are always issues with deadlines, but as long as you communicate and connect with mods it could have been cleared up a lot easier if people messaged them directly. Basically everyone should have had their stuff turned in the day before just to guarantee your entry would have been counted. And that being said they might have a little bit of a grace period as long as it isn't too extreme. But that is not a for sure thing. I would just do my best to get your drawing finished and turned in. Things will only get better from here and the contests will come and go with grace no problem!
