And on a related note, have you even seen all the builds?

"Time is relative, lunch time doubly so"

This makes Build-Off deadlines completely fictitious.

My goal for this build off was not to panic, but okay.

I haven't yet seen a rendering of "large friendly letters" that I found truly convincing. Has anyone?

Yeah, I guess I don't know what friendly letters look like... it's probably different for everyone. I've always been partial to this style:

Not sure if it's friendly or not, but it's kinda making me want a cheeseburger.

There are 15 days remaining!

Plenty of time to race to the finish line.

On the plus side, if my calculations are correct I have until 11pm on the last day since I'm on GMT.

 

[Beej]

It's 9am where I am right now if that helps. So it would be ending 7 hours from right now on the day.

 

[Flying B]

With any luck it’ll soon be repealed altogether.

A nice addition to anyone's Submission Post would be an explanation of how the project fits into the Theme.

Also, sound files if available.
