You need a much more strange and oddly precise number. Bring it down into minutes.
Well think about it for a second.
If it's 48 or 72 hours from the story post, then that means the deadline is going to be at the same time Squee finished the previous post. Meaning that in order for her to make a new post on the same day, she will keep having to do it later and later until eventually the time table becomes inconvenient and everyone is forced to wait longer (like an extra day) because of it.
And I know it's not guaranteed that Squee will be able to keep the schedule steady and make a post within that 6 hours or even that day, but it's smart to have that window of opportunity nonetheless.
It's ridiculous, overcomplicated, and seemingly irrelevant. But if I'm right... IF I'M RIGHT
THIS SOB WILL RUN AS SMOOTH AS A FINELY GREASED BICYCLE
