I searched around and I don't think this question was answered yet. Since everyone was able to look at the Advent Calendar early, many people's timers will not go until December 25'th, because it started early. Will we be getting an extended timer or a timer reset of some sort? Thanks
The timer didn't exactly start early, rather it is a continual countdown till December 25th. But fear not, the countdown timer is in the process of being removed due to the confusion this has caused. It will be replaced with some text explicitly indicating which doors are unlocked and available to open. I can assure you that everyone who starts the Advent Calendar today will have ample time to complete the game even if you miss a couple of days between now and the 25th. Keep your eyes peeled and you will see these changes shortly.
I agree. Much appreciated! Perhaps next year you could simply make it a date check, or a daily counter that lets you open only as many doors as it has been days of the month.
