What happens on the deadline. This is the first cycle that I'm submitting an application.

Do I just need to submit the application before midnight on the 29th? Still frantically trying to get a demo up of the application! I'm assuming the form gets taken down immediately after midnight.

(This reminds me of University again! Finding out the professor is ill and the paper submission date gets pushed back a day! Get well soon Paul - chuckles).



Keep in mind: the demo matters less than the way you present yourself (confidence + intelligence).


That college reference is funny! I have almost the opposite problem. I can't stop editing and submitting every time I think of a change I want to include or something on our project evolves. I just want the deadline to come already! Good luck with your demo!


That REsubmit button is a curse, always evolving :)


I think I've clicked that re-submit button more times than I have clicked a "like" button on Facebook!


Same here, I have added/tweaked a bunch of times since I first submitted back in February. I had a lot I needed to fit into a small amount of space so they don't have to read a mountain of text. I hope PG and the gang understand that I'm normally very good at english however I cut out all of the words that make english sound "nice" ;)


LOL :)

I had bad experience with editing anything online in the past (hello Blogger, GMail and others). So, I first prepared everything in a .txt file before filling it out. It took us two days to write down and check it all.

Still, we already used re-submit twice after that ;)


Seriously, REsubmit is a great feature!


If the applications are read on the daily basis, what's the point of editing and REsubmitting your application?



Thanks.

By the way, service doesn't look like it is still alive. Is it?
