In which way? The deadlines are the same for everyone:You said "Any time" - not "Anywhere". Still. Can't people take a "tongue in cheek" joke anymore?

Wokeism forbids making jokes about severely disadvantaged minorities.
Like Alaskans.

Which is very revealing when you consider the reputation of German humor.
Freud thought that jokes were crude - and primarily expressed lust and hostility. Comedy, however, was more the sarcastic subversion of thoughts better left unexpressed. And the latter category was more in the kind of "wordplay". Freud also thoughtthat "surprise" played a big role in humor. One expects a situation to develop one way, but it takes an unexpected turn.
Here the unexpected turn is that the very last people in the world who can submit a paper are the Alaskans - since everybody elses deadline has been passed. Combine that with the number of probable Alaskan Forth programmers and the joke becomes clear.
I hate to explain jokes, but sometimes - due to cultural differences - one has no choice.

Hans BezemerA nasty comment does not change if you try massage it into a joke.
We all know that the amount of Forthers there is minimal or 0. So where is the joke?
You try to be funny - definitely did not work, as the other comments show.

I find it amazing that
Anton posts about Euroforth 2022 - a brilliant event, and one of the few Forth events worldwide
about 100 people have looked at his post now
none of the posts here ( except for Anton's ) are related to the event.
But there we are ...
