Hi @mongodb_staff and @thepracticaldev , when will the hackathon be over i.e. the last time to complete the hackathon. Is it 13 Jan 2022 11:59 pm PT or 13 Jan 2022 11:59 pm UTC?
In the announcement article, both times can be seen written.
The PT time is mentioned in "Additional rules"
The UTC time is mentioned in "Important dates".
Please clarify as I don't want to miss out on the opportunity and miss submitting my project.
So sorry for any confusion. The deadline was 13 Jan, 2022 at 11:59 UTC — however we misrepresented this initially so we will be counting all submissions that we receive through 7:59 AM UTC on January 14
So sorry. I have made a few errors here. Corrected my comment to reflect the correct information. The important thing is that your project will be counted as long as we received it through 7:59 AM UTC on January 14
Hi Gracie, I have seen this now and submitted my post a little while ago and i am so worried to see that the mentioned date in artilce is wrong as you are saying 12 Jan utc. I was considering the 13 Jan 11:59 pm PT time from the article.
Kindly consider the posts till 11:59PM PT as this was due to the confusion of the dates. As we all have spent many hours on buildling the useful applications.

12 Jan? 😟
I haven't yet submitted and the post was (is) saying till 13th Jan.
And I can see people submitting after 12th as well.
