Currently I'm into Day 9 of a 10 day expansion...5 days to go still.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

There's an element of random as to what the actual building time is...some can take shorter, some can take longer.

I built on Sunday or Monday and had 10 days...it currently sits at 7.

Perhaps it's worth mentioning this somewhere in the Arena Rules page? The arena expansion tool says that the expansion will be finished in a certain number of days. Nowhere in the rules does it say this is just an estimate.

I don't have a problem with it being an estimate, but I would suggest the developers make that clear.

I am experiencing very strange building times as well. I know I am not on that much and for the entire week I am sure it has been on 2 days at least since last weekend

I just completed a 10 day(?) arena increase in a little over 2 weeks.

ok makes sense, that fact probably should be added into the Arena area of the rules.

The expansion quote does say that construction is in "roughly" x number of days.

it says "approximately xx days"

this I interpreted as "between 3 and 4 days" instead of specifying exactly "3.5" days, not meaning that it might take "3 or more days"

it's not "3 or more", can be less time also. but, like Charles said, more often is more time than less, like in real life.

I believe just with the "approximately" in the phrase it is fine, but I agree that something about this can be added to the rules.
