I agree that the time is minimal, but extending it too far would probably cause some people to ignore that reminder because, "oh look I still have two weeks."

I changed my listings to send by due dates instead of received by dates because I realized most people were using that option anyway and because of the 1 week reminder being more realistic then. The 1 week reminder is just a mail them today or they won't make it notice with a received by date is used.

I did the same thing and give a 10-day grace period. This has resulted in fewer last-minute drops and more on-time packages.

I always send my own email out 2 to 3 weeks ahead, requesting if people feel like they wont finish on time, now is the time to drop. Then the 1 week is a last minute reminder, in my opinion. Sometimes people don't even log in every week.

aMAZEing adventure frog, do you think you'll submit a suggestion to Ryan about this? It sounds as though it's worth asking!
