Contest #22: Spriting challenge

[Silverthorn]

when the compitition stops!?

It seems this question has popped up several times, so I'll try to shed some light onto it. Basically, I handle the deadlines like with any other contest and (sporadic) notices about how much time is left. In case you forgot (which is absolutily see what I did there? reasonable, considering the delay that preceeded this contest), here's roughly what needs to be remembered:

- the deadline that counts is the one mentioned in the first post, anything else is just some sort of reminder.
- the clearest sign of when the submission time is over when you find this thread to be locked, typically accompanied by a "thanks for submissions, poll's going to be up soon"-post.
- as I have explained here, the event date is set to 29/11/2015 0:00 GMT. As this apparently leads to confusion, I have now changed the system a bit to reflect a little more realistic approach. Instead of being set to midnight, events are now treated as if they happen at noon at 12:00 of the set day (i.e. everything is shifted to the future by 12 hours). At the time of this post, that's roughly 1 day and 19 hours, rounded down to 1 day. Tomorrow it'll say something like "less than 1 day". Please, once again, note that I do not necessarily close the contest at noon. If I don't get any last-minute-pleads, it'll probably be around 19:00 GMT when I close this thread.

Hope this kind of helps
