May I request that the deadline is enforced strictly on this occasion? After all, you won't be entering

[nozzacook]

You can request, does not mean it will be.

[jamesthegill]

I can see a few of these questions causing arguments...

No promises. All depends on number of entries.

No promises. All depends on number of entries.

Then it's not a deadline. I suggest you rephrase the wording to something like the following:

"Entries submitted before 01/11/13 at 18:00 will definitely be accepted. Entries submitted after that time may or not be accepted at my discretion."

Then at least players know where they stand. Given that (unlike with conventional quizzes) a player's score is affected by the number of entries from other players, it seems particularly important to specify with this type of quiz.

Or perhaps you could give two sets of scores: one being the player's score if the competition had been closed at the specified deadline, and the other being the score once all entries are taken into account.

I think this is a problem that only worries you. And I think you are intelligent enough to understand how I work. Good luck with your entry!

[GuyBarry]

Why not be honest about the way the quiz operates? (And it doesn't only concern me; Sam expressed similar concerns in the last quiz.)

[tractakid]

Not had any entries since Wednesday. Plenty of time still to enter but keep sending them in!

[GuyBarry]

I would have entered by now but question 8 might as well be in Sanskrit for all I understand about it. Need to do some research...
