Ring Contest Ended early?? -[Need rep response]

than a few days to design a RING, you're not making elaborate 3D model...

Well technically... <_<


Still, the 'procrastination argument' is fallacious and it is entirely irreverent to this issue.

The assumed motivations of individual contestants should have no bearing on whether or not SE is obliged to stick to the time they posted for the contest (and never updated, even after the contest was 'closed').

But to address the point: There are many valid reasons people will not submit entries until the last minute: from refining/perfecting work, to managing other schedules, to doing research, and more. It isn't up to SE or anyone else to pull the rug out from under people based on specious assumptions about their motivations.

SE posted a time, never corrected it once (in the same 3 weeks BTW), and they need to honor it.
