Wondering why the Lunar Festival ended early?

If you checked the calendar in advance (it was updated today), it informed you that the Lunar Festival was scheduled to end on the 8th of March -- that would be this Friday. However, if you've bothered to log on to the game at all, you'll notice that all of the decorations are gone and the elders have vanished. Whyso? Apparently, the calendar was in error -- according to Blizzard poster Ommra, the festival was supposed to last 19 days. So if you were waiting for the last day to turn things in, or the last minute to run around hunting elders (like I was -- I know, I'm a slacker), you're stuck waiting for next year.

Yeah... when I read that, I took a double take on the date. Today is, in fact, the 8th of March.

The one time I dropped in on Omen this year, I was the only one there. Last year dozens of players were messing with him.

Ended early? Are you kidding? That thing was going on FOREVER. It's about time it's over.
