Really too much man. Thanks again for putting this on its a great time. Really good odds for everyone this time around as well!

 

I'm not weighing in either way, I think it should be solely at OP's discretion; but it looks like 3 participants' entries came in after the 10:00 PM EST deadline on April 13th (one at 10:55 PM on Sunday and two in the early hours of Monday).

Before this gets too far underway, we should probably get a ruling whether or not they are eligible, to avoid hurt feelings down the road.

 

Not sure what time zone you're set on but one entry came in at 10:25 pm which was already ok'ed by the host of this and then the one that followed after that was also from @PA-Michigander who is hosting this LIF

 

I'm in the eastern time zone, which is the time zone the deadline is posted as. I'm not counting PA-Michagander's own post, only the three before it, SirPutzly at 3:25 AM on Monday, Damian74Shensky at 1:24 AM on Monday, and mps at 10:55 PM on Sunday. Again, I'm not weighing in on whether these three entries should or should not be approved; only pointing out that those three, based on OP's stated deadline, came in after the deadline.

I thought it would be wise to make a ruling now if those three are in or out, the mention above (I thought) was a little vague, and I'd hate for one of those guys to win and the person in 2nd place to feel cheated, or one of those guys to have a better score than the person who won and feel cheated, just because there wasn't a definite ruling.

 

According to the times that it says on my page, SirPutzly was the only one who submitted something after 10p, with his entry coming in at 10:25 pm. I'm thinking your time zone might be set to something other than EST on this site.

 

Your time zone is set to 0 00GMT

 

Haha. Don't worry everyone at the end of it all I'm sure I'll be at the bottom of the pack.

 

well shit, don't i feel dumb..... i figured by setting my location to Pennsylvania it'd know that's Eastern time zone, guess not.


carry on everyone, nothing to see here....

 

no argument here, even if someone actually was at 3 am on 'monday morning' as i thought... i just wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page (which, except me, everyone was... stupid forum settings grumble grumble)

 

It's a LIF. Just like baseball, there's no crying in a LIF.

 

I entered mine at 8:24 EST I'm a sleep at 1:24 am.

 

.. I can hear the crickets in this thread.

Should have been a question on how many checks there would be in the Stars/Ducks series..intense! Great hockey all around these playoffs.
