*I accepted the challenge while it had 1 day left of being on the board. The mines reverted to normal the next day, despite telling me that I had a week to get the challenge done.
Xbox version 1.5, in case it wasn't obvious.

From the wiki page on special orders:
"New special orders become available on Monday and their allotted time starts decreasing as days go by regardless of whether they have been accepted by the player. Hence, if the player starts a special order with a maximum timeframe of 7 days on Wednesday, the time given for completion will only be 5 days."

Figured that was the case. Report still stands, tho.

At no point should that challenge have told me that I have a week to get it done.

The description of the challenge says a week, and won't change no matter how long you wait. That wasn't a bug.

You're right, it won't change no mater how long you wait

....which is exactly why it shouldn't be in the description at all.
