Sorry for not getting results out last night - shooting off track with the time line as I did this week ended up with me forgetting all about it (until I got a notification for a new vote

Deadline doesn't matter to me as long as it is clear and an attempt is made to keep to it.
Just to try to keep to schedule, unless there are a large number of ties, wouldn't it be better to have 2 third place icons and just move on rather than holding everything up for another week or so?
I try to post notices if I can't make it and hope to keep everything within 24hours of the original due date in those cases (and I know how annoying it can be otherwise - there's one LIMS I'm participating in were results/voting takes around a week to put up after the due date)
If it were just 2 tied for third place I would have posted it with the tie. But there are actually 3 icons tied for third place. I'm hoping to have it broken (or at least reduced to only 2 tied) in a couple of hours. And the tie breaker wouldn't be up for longer than a day.
OK Doke! Yes - hopefully the tie will be broken. I participate in one community where the mod seems to drop by only once a week. So sometimes they are late posting by a week, then the voting for a week, then if there is a tie, another week.
You are quite good in letting us know about delays.
Because I participate in so many communities, if the posting and voting are late, I sometimes have a hard time figuring out if the contest is over or not and whether I can post the icons. I try to be organized but it is difficult with some MIA mods (not you!)
Thanks - I'm trying my best and in comparison to the first couple of challenges I know I've improved. And with more active members I was able to shorten the voting time as well :D
Participating in contests with rarely seen mods can be quite tiring.
The number of contests I'm participating reduced for me lately, but just the one LIMS makes it hard to keep track if I should vote or make icons or just wait. There's even one LIMS where I'm waiting on results since last December. I'm still trying to decide if I should just post those icons or not.

Just my preference.
