Currently, all tonight pages are reset at the first visit after 12:00AM each day. This doesn't account very well for different timezones or late-night rendezvous (rendezvouses? rendezvoux?).

The best solution I've heard so far is (from @elcapaldo, whose suggestion paraphrased is) to set an expiry date for each subdomain that is 22-24h after the first person adds their name to an empty subdomain page. This sounds reasonable; I'll probably take a stab at it and see if anyone ever complains about this approach before I try to get any more complicated.
