Why did the number of days per event change? It takes a ton of my free time every year to run Advent of Code, and building the puzzles accounts for the majority of that time. After keeping a consistent schedule for ten years(!), I needed a change. The puzzles still start on December 1st so that the day numbers make sense (Day 1 = Dec 1), and puzzles come out every day (ending mid-December).
If enough of you are interested, for next year we could create our own challenges and then get them to auto post at exactly the same time each day after the official Advent of Code challenges have ended.
We’d need:
- People to submit challenges
- Someone (or a few people) to review/select challenges and oversee it
Good thing about this is the challenges could be Elixir/Erlang specific 
Anyone interested in us doing this? Or is the appeal more that it’s global language-wide thing?
