bug on dayly easy challenge [8/21] (friday special challenge, I think)
Trying to join daily challeges, but it seems that dayly easy challenge has a bug, today.
I entered the challenge and I see (translated by me in english from Italian):
"Go as far as you can. You have 4294967295 seconds!"
After the countdown ends (3, 2, 1, go) the challenge ends immediately before you can do anything (so it is not a die, but a time up).
The problem is surely linked to the seconds available. The value 4294967295, probably, is higher than MAX_VALUE for the seconds variable (I assume, it should be an int value) so the game probably translate that number to a negative value, so the time is considered expired immediately.
Don't know if it is a bug, or if it was a wrong setting (I assume it should be 30 seconds, like the past week).
I also noticed that the path seem very similar to the one used in daily extreme challenge.
Other infos:
running Uplay / Rayman Legends on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on wine 1.7.37.
Until today I could always join all challenges, regardless the fact I run rayman under linux... so the problem shouldn't be related to my OS.
Hope I did a useful report.

Thank you for your report.
Yes, the challenge has a big problem... I'm not sure we can't fix it, but I'm trying.
I am very sorry about this, it's all my fault.

Nice job 
Those kind of bugs usually are a little headache becouse usually depends of a very small part of sourcecode (for example putting a minus sign instead of a plus sign) that could be difficult to find in a huge pieace of code.
So... very nice work on fixing the issue so quickly

I would have loved your 4294967295 seconds. Might have put me a tiny bit ahead of those 30 second wizards
