I didn't really get "yelling" from that. The fact is, not everyone is 100% on track, so some people will have to rush on these last days. On top of that, mistakes get made in tracking the assignments, so I figure a reminder to check isn't too big a deal. I'd rather get a reminder now than to find out later that I messed up.
I don't think it was meant to be quite what you took it as.
