    Hello, Harrison the Comparison

    How to extend your time on the question: Go to the question that you want to extend. See the pencil icon that says: Edit and click on it. Then see Extend Question and click on it. There! You have extend your question. You have 4 days or 6 MORE days (Depends if you extend it earlier or not) for you choose the best answer. Remember, you can ONLY extend it once and that's it. So you better choose the best answer before it goes expired because once it goes into VOTING, then you can NOT extend it anymore and you have to VOTE for the best answer! Best wishes and Hope it helps!

    Open the question and you should see a 'pencil' icon - that's the edit button. Hover your cursor on it and one of the options that appears is to extend your question to a total of 8 days.

  • You can only extend your Open Question. How do you extend your Open Question:

    » Go to your Open Question

    » Click "Edit", then, click "Extend Expiration"
