... only with an interpretation of AoE that is shared by nobody.
It's quite clear that everyone else on this thread reads the
deadline as being a specific instant. I do not think that you'll
get buy-in on resolving the confusion this way, and even if you
do, the webpage wording needs to be changed to be something like
"midnight your local time".
There is nothing whatsoever that is helpful about referring to AoE,
and if anything, you just made it even clearer that nobody knows
what that means.
