I know that on SoA, at least, two dates are shown in the story summary: the
date of original posting ("published", i.e. when chapters first began being
posted to the website, or "beginning") and the latest date that a chapter was
added. So you can tell pretty easily on that site if the story meets the
deadline, so long as the "published" date is before March 31.

Ff.net, too. But some archives don't have dates.
