I think it was good of them to extend it too. I'm not finished. I know many people who work jobs and go to school would have had a hard time finishing it even over the thanksgiving weekend it is a busy weekend... plus you can only stare at your computer screen so long heh. I'll either finish this tonight or tomorrow.
I'd kinda like to see this as a monthly or semi monthly type thing. But i doubt we will have it again next month with the advent candender and all
Well, since the U-13 crowed had legitimate issues it's nice that they extended it for them - but frankly the work/school excuse seems kind of unfair to me.
I'm an adult, I work a full time job - plus two part time jobs (all of which I had to do last week) I also had out of town company this whole weekend, but I knew there was a deadline, so I made an effort to complete the puzzle on time. Its sort of unfair that poeple that knew about the deadline and just couldn't find time get addtional time.
Now we don't know if there will be additonal prizes or what have you for this, but assuming that there are my reward for completeing the challenge based on the rules that were set will be lessened by the people that got extra time.
Its not the end of my world or anything, and I'm not super mad, but I am slightly annoyed, and its not really fair to try and argue that its 'fair' because it benefits you.

On a different note, I think this is shaping up to be a regular occurence, the structure and wording of the challenge strongly implys that they'll make a version of this one of the weekly challenges, which would be awesome
The extension was due to the fact the Under 13's accounts couldn't send challenge cards.
Obviously TNT should have thought of this before (not the 1st time this has happened) but it is
nice that they have allowed an extra day for this reason.
TNT never usually finishes anything at the stated time, so it is no real surprise to me.
As to it being 'fair' or 'unfair' is a moot point. Those who could finish in the stated time are not losing anything because of it and an extra 24 hours isn't going to make much of a difference to those still struggling. It really only gives those who only had the challenge card problem a chance to finish the challenge.
I wouldn't like to see this a monthly challenge - it would take away the uniqueness of the event. I believe it is a once-off challenge due to the new look Games Room.
