[CQ-Contest] Contesting On Line - Used to be Rookie Roundup Scoring

[Idle-Tyme]

Agreed,

Give at least 24 hours?

Oh well,, I guess I'm in the minority on most of this.  I see at least 
in my home situation here that if something like this happens across all 
contests I guess my days of contesting is over after 35+ years,

Sad that to be able to play in a RADIO game that you must have perfect 
and good constant internet connection

A sad day for Amateur Radio, or maybe it should it be called Amateur 
VOIP in the near future?

Should I then not be allowed to submit a log because I had to deal with something that prevented me from making some sort of stupid 10 minute log submission deadline?  Guess I am the only one who has a life outside of contesting and may not always be able to drop everything and submit a log at 00:00:01 UTC.
