doubly so since you made a ruling recently that unassigned exp would be lost to the ether

That wasn't an anti-randomization rule, just an anti-chicanery rule. We'd gotten real tired of boko assigning EXP 2 minutes before peacetime, thus forcing lots of pointless refreshing and extra time spent waiting specifically on him to finish his goddamn exp that he totally was going to put in but would delay for no other reason than making the admin team unhappy (because his opponents had always assigned EXP hours and hours ago at that point, thus providing no real value to that form of extreme timer-scamming). Note how it says 'anybody who submits experience after the deadline gets no exp' specifically, not 'unassigned exp gets lost'. It's a punishment on chicanery, not on being absent.

Shine on, you crazy diamond.
