@ ZekkeRJ: I think that's definitely what they are doing here. We've seen it on the past few events. I keep thinking they want you to be within a certain percentage of the PR in order to pass. You don't have to be at the recommended PR, but you'll need to be somewhat close.

Unfortunately, they aren't doing it by setting reasonable goals, they are doing it by making the goals impossible if you aren't upgraded to where they want you to be, but then they are making the goals ridiculously easy if you are upgraded at or over the recommended PR. It's a laughably wide range of difficulty depending on your PR level. I'd be far happier if they'd keep the goals the same if you upgrade so it doesn't appear to be as much of an extortion as it so clearly is.

I also agree on the timing, I've noticed that as well. I too think they give you a break after they see you are frustrated and put away the game for a long time (like a day or so). I haven't noticed it as much lately, but on earlier Special Events, before I used to frequent this site, I would get frustrated and saw the results of that.
