Well, for starters, not everyone celebrates Christmas. So to them, it's just another day, albeit maybe a paid day off of work.
Two, not everyone spends the entire day with Christmas. Especially those without children. So, this is not necessarily a *bad* thing.

this is great for those of us who have no where else to go and nothing better to do on that day, briefly distracting from the crushing lonesomeness that blights our souls :)

Hey, if it's "Play 1 game on Chirstmas" or "Win 1 game on Christmas" for some swag, I don't see the harm.

And some of us celebrate Christmas on the 24th... also, no one says it's a "one-day-only-challenge". Might last a week for all we know.

And they should be. Rest assured someone will have his laptop in reach to deal with unexpected downtimes. :D

Could be over the course of a couple of days like all the other challenges were.... Or did it specifically say it's only during Christmasday?

Since Christmas falls on a Wed, it'll probably start on a Tuesday, ending on a Friday.

The text in the challenge specifically says December 25th 6:00 PM UTC. I'll go out on a limb and assume that would be when it is intended to start. I won't go so far out on the limb to say that is when it will start.

TBH, usually those dates listed IIRC are when the challenge ENDS.

Hehe, don't let anyone from a Fox network news show see you say that. Otherwise it'll be another day of WAR ON CHRISTMAS.
