I agree with Daniel, but I suppose that activities with more time (like seven days) are more challenging than a 4-days task, so mentors will consider it. On Saturday, 7 December 2019 08:55:29 UTC+1, No One The Many Faced God wrote: > > Will finishing challenging tasks increase my opportunity

Yes, the corresponding mentors decide if they want to give you more time. In my case, they have always given me more time, but I suppose that the activity has less value for them. Anyway, remember that you're learning, and the value they give to your solutions doesn't matter. I'm having a
