I have my time zone set to Central which should be Midwest time.. Time stamp on the thread says 9:30pm.. it's actually 8:30.. Regardless.. it wont let me upload to week one when week 1 isn't even over yet.

ALright. i fixed the time stamp.. but I'm still a little confused as to what time zone the deadline is set to... Because as it stands.. I just lost this challenge on week 1 because of it.. so what's the point of continuing. Sorry for bitching but i'm a little frustrated.

Did you have a different username? Was your submission not completed this week and was it posted somewhere else long ago? If so it could of been deleted. But there is no record of a song that was submitted from your current user name.

That might be the case but 12am Monday morning means 12am monday morning to me! :-P

Yeah sorry, it can be confusing!
It says in the FAQ that it's GMT for the zero hour. However the counter on the front page is accurate regardless of timezone, since its a countdown, and doesn't tell the time. wink

Yeah weird, it's not here at all, Nor was deleted. did you actually hit the submit button after the track was "uploaded"? or did you submit the form before the song was finished uploading? I'd just like to try to find out what happened.

As of now I see the song on the server, in a temp location, but with no record associated with it, as if you clicked upload, selected the file, and did nothing afterwards. (you need to type in the title and description / tags and then hit the submit button)

Also another note, what browser / OS ?
As for posting for the week that has already past, I would suggest just holding on to the song or making a new one for next week.

Well I understand for your suggestion of keeping it for the next week or just m,ake a new one ... but its just a bit frustrating.

The browser used is google chrome, i havent put any tag when i uploaded cause i was really tired after the mastering and taught i could just add them tonight instead.

Im quite shure i pressed submit after the song was finished uploaded, also i chose at this moment the restricted copyright but it was the mistake....

also it seems i cant even upload a new avatar...

I understand your frustration. But again I can't find a record of the submission, which means something must of error'd out and told you, or you didn't press submit. You should of been redirected to the hom page with new text by the timer. "Your upload will go live in X:" Also you wouldn't of been able to submit another song.

This is a project of love and not one for profit, and unfortunately I do not have time to program in a workaround for you specifically since the system is automated.
