I use "deadline for reports" notes in the schedule, at the newswall and
at the desk where reports are deposited... and I announce the deadline
in my intro and, in multiple day os events, in the morning news of the
second day... in the 170+ events I have been involved in, this has
always worked well.
I would never mess with the bulletin board, seems to me to be the holy
property of the participants (at the end of the event we take it down
and include it in the archives of the event alongside other visualized
material, the archives being handed over to the sponsor of the event).
