Title: Can the deadline be extended on 4th 100$ contest
Post by: TrickyNekro on January 27, 2009, 09:36:03 AM

I know this may not be fair for others that are done with their tutorials,
but I'm in the middle of my uni exams...

Fortunately by Tuesday, I'll be off with the most important lessons...
So I can write down my tutorial (the thingy is ready!!!)

Also, I won't be making a robot, but a current - voltage sensor with kill switch for LiPo deep discharge prevention...
Is this "legal"....

With the deadline extended to Sunday, I'll have the tutorial ready!


Thanks in advance,
Lefteris, Greece :-[

If your tutorial is 'acceptable', and I'm assuming it already is, you will qualify.

Voting starts on the 11th of February and ends on the 12th of March. But you are allowed to update your tutorial throughout that time period.

Due to stuff I need to get done, I won't place my own vote before the 23rd. So if you finish before then you're fine.

so the official word  is,
we have until the 23rd to get everything done?

that would be a huge relief here as well.

Yes . . . but if someone else sees your tutorial before you finish, they will vote based on your unfinished tutorial.

This makes it fair for those who finished on time, but still gives you extra time to improve your tutorial.

(FYI, I personally decide who gets 2nd place, which will be after the 23rd when I have time)
