Frequently Asked Questions
Question: Can you extend the deadline for my contest?
Answer: To extend the deadline for your contest, open the Submission Form and follow the instructions. When you are prompted to enter your journal URL, enter the URL of your contest journal and click "Continue". The next page will list the details of your contest. Update the deadline and then click "Submit" to save your changes
The end date of my contest is 1 day later than it should be
The app doesn't know the time zone of the contest host so it assumes PST. However, deadlines are converted to local time in the app. The physical location of a user can cause discrepancies in the deadline when searching for contests
Question: How soon will i know if it was approved?
Answer: A moderator from AnotherContestGroup will leave a comment on your contest journal once your contest is approved to let you know your contest now appears in the search results.
Question: The app is down.
Answer: The app is hosted at X10Hosting and there may be periods of down time caused by DDoS attacks, server migrations or similar. I apologize, but these temporary issues are outside my control. Sometimes the hosting provider will announce these issues in the [status] section of their page or users will report the problem in the [forums]
