Hmm, guess I shouldn't have asked for the deadline way earlier, eh? =P

I don't know, I mean it's a double edge sword. I like to know because I have a general grasp at where some nice juicy notes will be released. I really did not expect to see notes the same day or even two days in advance.

But, if you must have the deadline a secret like everything else as a judge, then so be it I suppose. However, I would actually see that as a way to put any more incidents like this under a rug and not be exposed.

That's just me though, haha. Though... now that I think about it, I do have a suggestion about the deadline being given thing.

Perhaps when every single judge has more than 50% of their batch done at a reasonable time, a deadline could be given, much like how when a developer is very close to completion on their game they give a release date.
