<h3>Track Selection Freeze </h3>
 
<p class="red_text"> Your team track selection must be finalized by August 24, 11:59PM EDT. </p>
 
<h5> Why is this deadline important?</h5>
 
<p><a href="https://2019.igem.org/Competition/Tracks">Track selection</a> is important as it directly impacts the Giant Jamboree presentation schedule. We aim to group teams together by track in random groups of three to fit within the presentation schedule easily. Track selection also impacts the awards that will be given out on Sunday during the Giant Jamboree (for example, if there are no teams in a specific track, then there will be no award given for that track). Please add your track selection to your Team Profile Page.</p>

<h5>Why is this deadline important? </h5>
 
<p>For collegiate teams, Team Rosters are used to determine if your team will be categorized as an Undergraduate or Overgraduate team (high school teams are automatically placed into the high school section). This will impact the track awards and special prizes you can compete for during the competition, so make sure your Team Roster is correct and up to date by September 21, 11:59PM EDT. The Team Roster is also used to print your participation certificates for the 2019 competition season. High school teams should submit the applicable consent forms with enough time for processing.

<h3>DNA Submission Deadline</h3>
 
<p class="red_text">You must send your part submissions to iGEM Headquarters by Wednesday, October 10, 11:59PM EDT. </p>
 
<p><i> Please note: They do not need to arrive at iGEM Headquarters by this date. </i></p>
 
 
<h5>Why is this deadline important? </h5>
 
<p>If you are a team in a Standard Track competing for a medal, you must submit at least one DNA part to us (for silver). Special Track teams do not need to submit a DNA sample for medal consideration, but we do encourage part submission if you have made new parts in order to help the Registry grow. (Full details on medal requirements can be found <a href="https://2019.igem.org/Judging/Medals">here</a>.) Also, if you have nominated your team for one of the special <a href="https://2019.igem.org/Judging/Awards#Special_Prizes">part prizes</a>, you must submit that part to us as well.  All teams must include a tracking number with their submissions. We recommend you work on the DNA Submission before finalizing your <a href="https://2019.igem.org/Judging/Judging_Form">Judging Form</a>.  After you fill out your DNA Submission form, you should see the status of your parts listed on your Judging Form reflect the sent-by date. </p>
 
 
                      <h5>Follow the Submission Guidelines</h5>
 
<p>Please make sure you follow our <a href="https://parts.igem.org/DNA_Submission">Submission Guidelines</a> when sending us your parts. Failure to follow our guidelines may prevent your team from winning medals and prizes. If you have any questions, please email us at <i>hq [AT] igem [DOT] org</i>.
 
 
<h5>Why is DNA submission important? </h5>
 
<p>Because it grows the repository for future teams and it gives them a way to share. It is all part of the Registry's Philosophy. <a href="https://igem.org/Registry"> Learn more</a> about how the iGEM Registry is an open community that runs and grows on the "Get, Give, & Share" philosophy. </i></p>

<h3>Judging Form Freeze</h3>
 
<p class="red_text">Your team judging form must be finalized by Friday, October 12, 11:59pm EDT.  </p>
 
 
<h5>Why is this deadline important? </h5>
 
<p>The <a href="https://2019.igem.org/Judging/Judging_Form">Judging Form</a> informs your team's judges about the medal criteria you have fulfilled as well as any special prize(s) you have nominated your team to compete for at the Giant Jamboree. This deadline allows iGEM Headquarters to assign the judges to your team, so this is a very critical deadline for every team. Please make sure you fill out and save your form by October 12, 11:59pm EDT. </p>

<p class="red_text">The Registry Freeze for the 2019 Giant Jamboree is on Wednesday, October 17, 11:59pm EDT. </p>
 
 
<h5>Why is this deadline important? </h5>
 
<p>All of your Registry pages must be completed by this deadline, as we will freeze the entire Registry until after the Giant Jamboree. Teams must finalize their Registry Part pages so the judges can begin their assessment of your work. For all parts, all of your part documentation and characterization data must be on the Main Page of the Registry Part page(s).</p>

<h3>Wiki Freeze</h3>
 
<p class="red_text">The Wiki Freeze for the 2019 Giant Jamboree is on Wednesday, October 17, 11:59pm EDT.</p>
 
 
<h5>Why is this deadline important? </h5>
 
<p>The Wiki Freeze is important for the judging process of the competition. Judges will be assigned their teams and begin their assessments the next day. Your Wiki is the public face of your project, so make sure you begin work on it early to avoid last minute problems and mistakes.  Once the wikis are frozen, users can no longer make any changes until they are unfrozen after the Jamboree. Please be sure to read through the the wiki requirements! No extensions will be provided (no exceptions!) and judges will begin their assessment the next day, so make sure all changes are done by 11:59PM EDT today.
 
<br><br>
 
<b>IMPORTANT:</b>All teams must follow the <a href="https://2019.igem.org/Competition/Deliverables/Wiki">Wiki Rules</a>. Failure to follow these rules may prevent your team from winning medals or prizes.
 
<br><br>
 
<b>PLEASE NOTE:</b> During week of wiki freeze, iGEM experiences higher than normal traffic which can lead to strain on our servers and sessions timing out for users. iGEM HQ recommends that users do not wait till the last days to work on and/or finish their wikis. Edits done during the final week should be very minor edits (spelling mistakes, updating images, etc.).</p>
