If possible, extend the deadline of your questions. Ideally 24 hours.
Thanks, Phillip. I will remember this for next time. I'm just trying to get these questions answered as quickly as possible. I know a question like this only takes about 10 minutes. I'd do it myself but I'm pressed for time!
No worries, we'll get them done.
