The deadline is Monday 27th April, Midnight.

Does that mean midnight tonight? Which is officially the 27th?

Or midnight tomorrow? Confused

That's very confusing - I see it both ways. Sorry to not be of help. If a job application to err on the side of caution I'd assume it's tonight.

midnight tomorrow.

HolgerDanske · 26/04/2015 22:22

It's midnight on Monday the 27th, so tomorrow night.

At our place it's the minute after 11:59pm tomorrow. When the date officially rolls over to 28th.

I'd say midnight tomorrow, too. It's the midnight of Monday, not the midnight of SUnday.

It's midnight tomorrow.

Hmm I think it means tomorrow but it is confusing. Glad my course essays are always due by 11.59pm to avoid confusion. Would err on side of caution

Midnight tomorrow

PeppermintCrayon · 26/04/2015 22:23

On my course this would mean tonight NOT Monday night.

TowerRavenSeven · 26/04/2015 22:24

I take it as the deadline would be Monday up to 11:59 pm you are ok.

QuintShhhhhh · 26/04/2015 22:26

Midnight is evening, it is still evening until it has gone past midnight and then it is morning. 1 am is morning. If the deadline was tonight it would say something like "by 1 am 27th April"

steppemum · 26/04/2015 22:27

midnight at the end of Monday.

HolgerDanske · 26/04/2015 22:27

Yes, it does actually mean 11.59, just be aware of that!

Is this the deadline for registering to vote? I thought that was a bit confusing too -I hope it means that people have all day Monday to register as I think a lot of people will read it that way.

ImNameyChangey · 26/04/2015 22:30

No not for voting. It's a competition I'm entering and have had to prep a lot of stuff for so the mixed opinions isn't good! Grin I could do with the extra time tomorrow but now I'm scared if it's meant to be tonight!

Just realised that the deadline for registering was last "Monday at midnight" so it's not that (I am on the register already - but still not clear whether it closed at midnight on the Sunday or the Monday!)
