	So what's the theory as to the constant 25% XP boosts? I'm a good little rat and respond appropriately to the incentives, but I actually enjoy the game less when they're pushing people hard to grind something in particular.

	Bonus xp weeks also give some people the nudge to TR. A lot use Epic Tokens, but a lot will also spend at the store. Either way, I'm not complaining .

Turbine often offers boosts on holiday weekends/weeks to drive traffic during slow times (Xmas week, Labor Day weekend, etc.).

	It's already been said. Turbine wants as many people at level 20 as possible so they can access the epic levels and the MotUD content coming in June.

I'm a good little Lemming ( erm Frog once you get behind the Lemming hide ) and I'm in vacation until the 30th... I'm going to farm that to hell.

	What kind of xp do you normally get from the challenges? I'd been expecting stuff in the 20k+ range, but after soloing buying time (or maybe time is money, the extraplanar palace one) cr25 and only getting ~11k for 3 stars my first run I was kinda disappointed.

	First time bonus is huge, after that xp is much less. Buying time First time 3 stars is 20k... 28k with pot and time extensions to maximize xp. If you got 11k you two stared it. The Xp comes from repeat farming buying time at cr25. 5 to 7k xp every 5 minutes like clock work.
