The deadlines are usually mentioned when the winner is announced and sometimes in the official rules of that contest or giveaway
Just to play devils advocate...shouldn't the rules be posted in the main entry? I mean if nowhere in the official post does it say there is a 48 hour deadline and that you must follow the thread to make sure you won (ie you may not be notified by pm). Is it fair to assume that everyone who entered would just know these unspoken rules?
To be clear, I have never won anything so I really don't have any ulterior motives. Just trying to see if there may not be a better way to communicate the rules.
