Did I miss the Week 2 announcement?

Did I miss the Week 2 announcement?

I believe publius plans to get it posted at some point this evening. However, keep the following in mind (quoted from the post where publius announced the Week 1 contest):

Because of the chaotic scheduling and anticipated last minute scheduling changes, postponed and/or canceled matches, it is not feasible this year to standardize the day and time each weekly contest will be posted to open and close. The window between opening a contest and closing it may need to be shortened considerably this year due to circumstances beyond our control. We thank you in advance for understanding and cooperating.
