Info above from a whois.

1. In order to determine the exact time of expiration, simply add 5 days to March 2nd, right? This name will become available on March 7th at 2:00 pm eastern time if I am correct or am I missing something here.

I think March 8th at 2:00 , thats my opinion

Thats what I am trying to nail down.

http://snapnames.com/deleteprocess.html indicates 5 days. Has anyone here acquired a recently dropped name that could give a definitive answer?

It does look like it has been 6 days instead of 5 since the drops resumed.

Yes, it become avail on the 6th day according to my tracking so far and not always at 2pm.
