I for one think that extending the dead line is a HORRIBLE idea, everyone who started on this project wether it be early or late saw the dead line, and came up with a project that he/she could of finished in time. This will be unfair to those people who actually accepted the dead lines as DEADLINES and planned their game with only enough features designed to be programmed within the set amount of time they have left. I started about a week ago and I think I still have more then enough time to enter and probally rank good. Like superpig said this is also a way for the judges to see how we can schedule our time, if you were a contractor you are given a deadline for when the project is suppose to be finished. If you go past that deadline you are charged HUGE amounts of cash for everyday that passes. In the real world sure if people give you a second chance to finish something, I bet we would all like that. But the reality is that rarely happens and you cant count of deadlines being extended if you think you cant finish in time. If people decide to join now with asperations to create Quake 4 for the contest and only have 2 months to do it, then instead of changing the deadline people should think about changing their stratedgy and design.
