10 days is too long for a contest to run ! completed
Should revert back to a 5-7 day contest length.
10 days is way too long. If someone can't get in a submission within 5 days, I'm sure there are plenty more they can enter :-) Say 10 days for the contest to run, could wait up to 2 weeks + before a winner is announced. This is dragging out a contest way too long, particularly when you consider some of the prizes being offered for some of the contests. I can understand a wait for a contest worth $1000 but to wait so long for a contest worth $150-$250 just doesn't seem worth the effort.
We're back to 7 day contests across the board!

Yes, I wholly agree. I didn't see a problem with the original six day length.
The 10 day length is a bit too long for me.
Lachlan, perhaps you can charge the contest holder extra to extend the 5/6 days to 10 days? Maybe another source of revenue? ;-)
