What the heck just happened? I mean I usually see the challenges start at 11 PM CST and today it happened at 10 PM CST Daylight savings is next week, so what did I miss? Or are we on the European Daylight savings?

I hope you will share it after it's over in the outtakes

oh I can share it now since it was never submitted. :(

Not that this would have been the winner, but I would have made a few laugh..

I haven't changed with Daylight Savings and the time of rollover is still the same. Therefore the change has been at your end.

this thing sounds funny to me too. What you posted was not out-take. and if fact the only relation to the current challenge that it has it it was made for it. If you did not enter it is like any other image.
I think you should be allowed to show if you want. Its just another photo now.

Challenge Outtakes
Here you can discuss the photographs that you didn't enter for challenges where voting has finished.
Since the photo was initally created for the challenge, we would just let it as an outtake, even if the challenge was not entered

He's perfectly welcome to start a thread and post his image asking for comments; what he CAN'T do is say "this would have been my "beginning of end" entry, how would you have voted it?" Doing that is taking some slight emphasis away from the actual voting, or so the theory goes.

theres what im looking for:) thanks Bear

Here's my take on what happened... server rolled back at midnight as it should have, but, since us in the central and later time zoes hadn't reached midnight yet at midnight Eastern, we didn't roll back until an hour (or two or three...) after the server rolled back.

No daylight saving here in Japan ... :-(
10/29/2007 02:09:41 AM · #25
The OP already discovered and explained the problem quite some time ago.
