Any word on people who have gotten a second extention on a tourist Visa in the last 6 months? If so or not please let me know...URGENT!

This is not a direct answer, as I know you asked for people who have tried.
I am pretty sure that under the latest regs (1 Sept) only one extension is granted. I have read this several times. I think at least once from someone who was refused. As it is urgent I answered anyway.
I've only extended my tourist visa once and was refused second extension yet in the late September. The only way would be to leave the country and apply, say, in Laos. Or anywhere where the site for Chinese consulate is only updated once in ten years. Otherwise it may be complicated to get a new visa.
For visas generally, I have found Chiang Mai to be a better bet than Hong Kong.
