let the robots know I didn't fail just because time ran out

...so I gave myself 16 days to do the Activia 14 Day challenge just in case I forget to mark that challenge as done … bifidus regularis … woo hoo !

They are looking into it. I receieved a very thorough reply from Daniel Spils. Thanks Robot :)

I sent the following message to the robots earlier today.

Here’s hoping we see some action :)

“I’m writing to you with regards to this goal (http://www.43things.com/things/view/2050386/let-the-robots-know-i-didnt-fail-just-because-time-ran-out). I completed a personal challenge awhile back and marked it done the day that the deadline was. For some reason it said I failed and I have found that I haven’t been able to change this.

Is this how personal challenges are supposed to work? Often, goals are completed a few days after the deadline due to unforseen circumstances. Is there a way for us to edit the deadline for a personal challenge?

Thanks, Elusive Sleuth”

has anyone here thought of inviting the robots to this goal?

has anyone heard from the robots on this?

I wonder if the robots know about the “failed” issue.

And I wonder if we are the only three who are getting the “failed” commnet on our challenges, or maybe no one else knows about them.

Hmmmm.

that I marked ‘Done’ the day the deadline was. Next second it said ‘Failed’.

sometimes things are just delayed -

and sometimes we are so busy doing things in the rest of our life, sometimes 43things a day, that we forget to mark our personal challenges as complete in the time we gave ourselves -

yikes !

I too see that the world is being told in big bold letters that I have failed things

Bad Robots!

:)

here.

thanks, john lee, for this idea.
i didnt fail this goal. and it kind of bothers me that it says fails. thanks for emphasizing that, putting it in bold and all. i didnt fail because we got our letters the week after i set this goal’s time to run out. i had earned my letter before i marked this off as done. i just didnt have it yet because our banquet was later.
