You should never ever ask for an extension for your update. You have the full seven days of the week to figure out when you're going to get it up, and most of the time missing the deadline is on you for waiting until the last minute. IRL does come and punch us all in the dicks, so if you were really blind sighted you can ask for a extension, but there are a couple things to this:
- If your extension is approved it is only for 24 hours. Again, you had the whole week prior. Depending on the circumstances, a 48 hour extension may be given, but this must be discussed with your monitor/moderator.
- Your extension can be declined for any reason, but is more likely to be declined, even if you have good reasons for it, if you have a history of needing extensions. At that point, something is wrong with your time management and you need to figure out your schedule and stop making the staff change theirs.
- Consecutive Counters are meant to reward the active. If life scooped you up and you weren't active, you weren't active! It's +20 all and PRIDE, I getchu, but like, focus on your irl shit man. We are also REALLY quick to given extensions to unclaimed RP reports if that's part of your issue for wanting the update to qualify for the last week. I'm personally usually happy to add another week to claiming one of those suckers, so long as it's asked and you obv aren't being sketchy with extreme growth hormones

At the end of the day, we don't want you to lose out, but sometimes your basic training shit that everyone else managed to do on time is just not gonna fly this week. IRL Happens, the game goes on.
--On another note, your previous update does not have to be approved for you to post one for the new week. Don't feel like "I'm gonna be busy over the weekend but I can't post it yet!!" Doing this does make things more complicated, especially if something is wrong in the unapproved update, but we can handle that, and we'd rather see you trying to be on top of your updates then missing them cause you work sunday nights. (Just please don't post like 7/8-714's update before 7/8 lol)---
