The available dates were Monday, March 2nd, or Tuesday, March 3rd; the “12:01 am” did not distinguish which of those dates was meant by “Tuesday, March 2nd” in the slightest, since both possible dates had their own 12:01 am.
This has been subsequently corrected by EY to “Tuesday, March 3rd” (which was the correct day for the 60 hours promised).
The tradition in timetables is to list 11:59 pm for endings (such as we have here) and 12:01 am for beginnings. Eliezer should have followed the tradition; the evidence for my claim is that janos was confused when EY violated the tradition. (Edit: Well, actually, janos was apparently confused by a bona-fide error, not by this.)
March 2nd isn’t a Tuesday; is it Monday night or Tuesday night?
It clearly stipulates 12:01 am to avoid just this kind of confusion.
Further, the chapter will be posted at 10:00 am on Tuesday.
So the deadline is Monday night.
