How about this one?

> Limit the number of Beemergency days you have. Set up a Do Less goal on Beeminder and have IFTTT push to it whenever you have a Beemergency on any goal. Get ahead on some of your goals some of the time, or this goal will spill over and derail from...

Or possibly this:

It doesn’t beemind exactly what you are asking for, but it should be able to be a part of the solution of your problem.

> [repeating this from a couple daily beemails] First, keep bugging us about the fact that autodata goals still don’t have customizable deadlines. For some integrations it’s easy and we just haven’t gotten to it. For others it’s hard but probably still worth finding a way to do it. (It’s hard when the app or service doesn’t tell us actual timestamps but just aggregate amounts for each day as they define “day”. It may be that the only real solution is to hack the timezone for the other service. B…
