I'm not even sure if the event masters will see this, but it seems as good a place as any to put it. Only one day to win two matches isn't great, since it's easily possible to get a pretty bad losing streak through no fault of your own, not to mention that some people just may not be able to play on a particular night.

Thought I'd ask if the one-day challenges in Week 4 could be extended to 2, or even 3, days, or if the Accuracy and XP challenges could count toward the 5 required.

It's a challenge. I am sorry if you can't play. But, if you can't play, you ain't getting the challenge done. Good luck in your matches.

really. i did this in 3 games, and thats only because my poor urbie got one hit by a t1 from across the map on my first game. i then played 5 more games to push my name up the urbie leaderboard.

The challenge is easy to complete.

Hey PGI, I was never rewarded for the rush hour and qp challenges.

Every single response misunderstands my point. The point is that, of the challenges in the last week, this one in particular is very subject to team performance, and I don't feel like it should be as short as it is. The rest? Probably fine, though having more than one day for each would be nice.

I'm mostly not even asking for me - I'm comfortably in tier 1 and a competent enough pilot that I shouldn't have a problem with the rest. QP matches being what they are for (lack of) communication, though, I happened to get 3 games (all I had time for in one night) that were terrible. I would imagine other players have had similar experiences, despite what all 3 of you have said so far.

I have been playing since closed beta but didn't have my own internet for quite a while due to trying to stay alive even last winter I had icicles hanging from my eye brow walking through the snow trying to get to the grocery store(icicles over 1 eye only because face turned slightly , yes it does hurt a bit, the way back was easier because wind was at my back, survival 101 ), no kidding, and missed a few of the early challenges. No I did not email customer support or make a topic about it.

Icicles hanging in front of your eye is a real trip let me tell you, but I survived and now get to brag about it. This while dodging cars! The amount some hate blonde hair, blue eye people is quite surprising.

How ever customer support did help me out over this last weekend when I accidently lost 750 MC which was really nice.

For real, a match takes 7 minutes, you can bang out 5 of them in an hour easy. If not 6. This topic is a non-issue. It's like asking to get this one for free. What. be there or be square. Life happens. This is a game. It's such a minuscule challenge, I see no reason to extend it. It's "have you logged in today", the challenge.

Well it did take me 2.5 hours of solid gaming to get 2 wins last night so I don't know if I'd go so far as to say it's a non-issue. I'd say the matchmaker is more the issue though. Along with all the lights running around for their challenge last night, plus the games with a full lance of urbies can make wins difficult. So maybe timing is an issue too.

[Torezu]

The general consensus seems to be, "Don't bother with this kind of post." So I guess I won't in the future, though I still think having more than one day to finish something like this would encourage a little more player activity.

At least it's not "You must play for 18 days in a row to win this grand prize."

Carry harder. Most people I know went 2/2, or 2/3, done and done.
