While I agree with the spirit of the original post, I despise the tone. There is no shame in people playing a video game in the manner they decide to. Its not like the people who are doing this event are coming on and complaining. People either think its worthwhile or they don't, not a big deal. Anyway, I digress...

" The question is, why they would actually care if "we" hit the target? They would only need to "spend" less gold ;-p"

If I had to guess, I would say the purpose of this event is to keep players engaged at the end of an update to pad FM's stats. If that is true, it would make sense for FM to give the community a little boost to keep people going as otherwise, today or tomorrow, even the people who are keen on this were going to realize 60m laps was out of reach. People might keep going to 30m but who would keep grinding away if it were clear the next goal was unattainable? The playtime stats are probably worth more to FM than giving people 10gc ;)
