Well, in the article that you linked, there's a graphic that outlines the challenge...and it says right on the graphic that you do squats for two days, then rest, two days, then rest, and so on that way. So...no, you don't do it every day; the answer to that "unanswered question" is right there for you to read. And actually, a few of your unanswered questions are answered:
1) No. You don't do it every day. 2 days on, 1 day off, for thirty days.
2) Since you don;t do it every day, you're not working the same muscles every day.
3) Yes, your muscles need time to recover. Hence the rest days in between the sessions.
As for whether the squats need to all be done at once...I doubt it. Who the **** has the time, for example, to do 250 squats in one sitting? Of course, if you want to, I'm sure there's no rule against it. But splitting them up throughout the day would be fine too.
No, this is not for weight loss. It's touted as a way to tone and strengthen your legs, thighs, and butt. I know a lot of people who swear by them, so I'm not sure I'd dismiss it out of hand.
...Did you even read the article you linked? I mean, the graphic outlining the schedule for the challenge was right there and most of your questions were answered from it, really.
