If the timezone of the dealine is GMT-**, the website is somehow ignoring the negative and shows the deadline as GMT+**. For example, for the upcoming UAI deadline the data correctly shows GMT -11:00 timezone, however on the website it is treating the deadline as GMT +11:00, hence the deadline showed on the website is off by 22 hours.

This also happens with other conferences that have negative GMT deadlines, ECML-PKDD, and EMNLP-IJCNLP.

Thanks! Turns out this wasn't a bug: moment/moment-timezone#167, just counterintuitive design. Added support for the more intuitive version.

Awesome, thanks for the quick fix. I knew timezones are always tricky, learned something new today.
