I think long event + major content update would be great because it would give people something to do and it would also allow newbies to get a good foothold into the event.
My only complaint would be if it is one of those events where you need to be on 24/7 to be able to accomplish everything in the event because so much micro-management is required. (The last event was kind of like that. I know a lot of people got 25/25 orbs but at the same time a lot of people that missed a day or two didn't even get close.) Granted with a very long event like what is being discussed I would hope everything would be obtainable for people playing MOST of the time (while still being able to sleep).
The tricky part of course is keeping a balance between needing to be active and not punishing people too harshly for not being able to play 24/7.
Also I'm a little sad if making the event last longer means that it wont start this week since I heard it'd be Friday and I've been looking forward to it all week...
But over all, 1st option is still by far the best.
