There is a purpose to what we do. I can't believe I would ever say this, but Denyer is right. People's schedules vary. And so do the fight deadlines.

man if you wanna do it you're gonna do it no matter what the deadline.

not liking deadlines, titles, whatever-- these are excuses for something else.

Yeah, in hindsight this is sort of a selfish request. At first I was thinking that I was probably in a majority, but then I wasn't thinking of all our friends overseas and odd hour workers. Though here's a question...why are songs always due at 10:00 AM Pacific? Why not a midnight due date here and there?

And I've just got one word to add - International Dateline.

The 'Nur Ein' game had fixed times - and personally, I found it pretty difficult, as often my weekend was half over before I even got the title.

Keep the deadlines mixed and varied I say - we're international - you will never please everyone - so aim to please nobody.

I guess you turn most of your tricks Friday and Saturday nights after the pubs close?

(jb's 'not liking the titles' argument aside,)

Hasn't this come up before? Like, exactly this issue?

What is this, a democracy or something?

Those are all good points, but I am still disappointed when a Federal Holiday falls outside of the deadline. A full day I could have used to make my song better.
