There have been a few discussions about this in the chat.
In short:
Technically it's actually quite tricky to allow for different cut-off times. Especially if they can later be changed (see below).
People travel across different timezones. This complicates things even more as during a timezone switch one day might only be a few hours long and another 24+ hours.
Having a shared deadline fosters more of a community feeling.
If I could flip a switch and have user-specific deadlines I'd do it, but it's just too difficult right now to get right. Your feedback (and those of others) is noted though. If there's any experienced Ruby developers that are willing to take a stab at it I'll consider providing repository access.

Ah ok thanks for the response!
I understand it's a difficult technical/UX problem. If I can think of a novel solution, I'll be sure to mention it.
