So if Your results will be done Between 12.01 Am On the date given for your game until 12 Noon the next day as sometimes is hard to get them done and I know how you all get frustrated when there not done on time so giving us some more official time to get them done seems to be for the best.
So you could have up to 36 hours after your games deadline before you know your result (you can still use that time for your next game and probably media wise is a better time to make more random posts which go off of the beaten track so to speak)
