If you’re going to delay the season start until the 31st can you at least extend darkening event so we can still level with it?

So unfortunately the times are baked into the game and not server side. Code hasn’t been touched in forever for DoT. So we won’t be able to adjust that on a whim.
Blizzard listens to the players, so this will not happen. =)
If that were true you simply could change the date on your machine and have darkening of Tristram for any season.
I call BS. Everything is generated on the server. Except maybe for the crappy music.

Yeah. It is only on consoles that. Is that answer simply missunderstanding the technical side or purposefull come-off?
Dates can be implemented in the game code, but with a server-side check of these dates 
Came here to vote for this.
Happy Medium here would be to start the season before DoT ends. A day or two would be great but I’d even take a couple of hours.
