I'm half asleep and my brain is kinda mush, but I thought the double days thing that BunnyVale pointed out was smart. My calculations before were based on the time we have progressed through the event, so I tried it again using the amount of spice we can collect instead, and I took into account double days, but it doesn't change too much. At the rate we are collecting spice, we are progressing at ~90% the speed we should be. I wrote down a time line for how much spice will be able to be collected each day. For us to be at the same percent of completion as the community progress, we need to be able to earn a total of 29000 spice (from max daily collection rates) (if any of this even makes sense to anyone but myself). We currently are on track to earn a total of 25000 spice, but it is possible to get the reward at this rate if they extend the event for an extra day and have the last 72 hours be double spice.

My brain is now an actual slushie, I'm too tired for this. I need some chocolate if you're going to make me do more maths. ♥

TLDR; It doesn't really add up when you count spice. In my opinion, it seems more likely that the community progress is just a timer, but anything is possible I suppose.
