I cannot influence the time zone that the server runs on. For this reason, the bot runs one extra day, so that
it's sure to cover everyone's midnight. There is no way the bot shut off too early for you; you likely
misunderstood the end date.

Same thing as with the end date, I have to start the bot early in order to allow Asians to start at midnight。

OT (sorry): The time zones/bot setting discussion qualifies for 'You know you're a language nerd when...' thread. ;)

Edit: Good luck to all brave participants.

Sorry, didn't mean to get your location wrong. There was a concern of the bot not
accepting entries 'til 11:59 on the Dec. 12th if we started earlier. Sprachprofi already
cleared up everything.

How have people handled immersion in the past? Does it throw the whole challenge off, or
is there a standard for estimating how much time to record?
