YOU WILL BE PUNISHED!
Just kidding!
The floating deadline is for quests that will be tested by AGN`s quest players club. Any quest submitted by November 5th will still be eligible for the contest, as PureZC`s rules did not declare a floating deadline. No stress.
EDIT: I should clarify. The Quest Players Club will play ALL the entries in this thread to their conclusion <hopefully> and give feedback regarding bugs and uncomfortable gameplay (Some of this has already begun in AGN`s Quest Discussion Forum, and an official playthrough discussion of the first submitted quest <Chris Miller`s> will be posted sometime this evening <again, hopefully>. When the actual judging begins, there is no guarantee that quests will receive this kind of attention, or even a full playthrough.
So if you want this manner of rigorous testing, post a link to your quest in this thread before November 5th.
