    Maybe it was intentional?

    I believe this is intentional, because people are likely to miss days due to the holidays.
    However, I will ask Nexon for clarification.

    Don't we have 3 extra days this month regardless? They never shorten other attendance events because of holidays, in fact, they add more attendances and hot weeks around holidays.

    Pretty sure the typical response was usually something along the lines of "You're making the choice of irl > MS, so you'll lose stuff in MS."

    February's Fairy Bros is also reduced to 21 days, despite the month having the required 28 days.

    This one I could actually see as intentional, as requiring people to hit 28/28 days is a little unreasonable. However, every other month except the one where we did get the 28 days is inexplicable.

    On the contrary, I think the regular Fairy Bros is 28 days because of February being the shortest month and so they went by that amount of days for all of them.
    The only reason we had reduced Fairy Bros was because it was introduced in the middle of a month.

    Exactly. There's no reason any of the other months should have been reduced.

    Other games solve this by having the first 21 days with good rewards and the later 7 with some extra rewards that aren't necessary but are there for those who put in the effort. This would be a better solution than say "No items for you"

    They're finally fixing it but not listing it as a bug despite everything pointing to it being one.

    it's good that it's shortnened, gives leeway for missing a couple days. Besides holidays sometimes we dont get home til after reset or have to leave early without a chance to get on.
