[Septimius Severus]

Well, Gandalf had not removed the extra 12 hours from the previous turn. I had decided I would not bother Gandalf about it though I admit I was getting a bit irritated when it looked like people were taking advantage of the extra 12 hours, can't blame them though. Either Gandalf took out the extra time or the server did something on its own causing those 3 people (Lanka, Kailasa, and Caelum) still outstanding to stale apparently.

Though it could be argued that everyone had sufficient time since the real hosting would have taken place at 8 AM PST (5 AM est), it could also be argued that people were going based upon what they saw. Therefore, I will leave it to the discretion of Gandalf if we wants to do a rollback or not. I agree with Chris, if it is done only those 3 people need to resubmit, and I will ask that they get their turns in with all do haste. Last time I put 16 hours on the clock for this to take place, this time I think 8 might be reasonable and fair. I am sure people won't want any longer delays than necessary. I am forwarding a copy of this post to Gandalf for his review.
