I know this is perhaps a niche request, but would it be possible to add a button to upcoming puzzles to let you copy as Discord timestamp (the sorts of things you can make with https://hammertime.cyou/)? I'm on a Discord with others doing this contest and we have a thread going where we post when new ones are up and with a timestamp to the next one; it would be nice if we could get it with one click :) (I personally like the :F and :R variants.)

We have added a button that copies timestamp for future puzzles. Hope this is what you were suggesting. Let us know.

Thanks, although I think you want to divide by 1000 :)

Done.

Can someone explain how the "Resize" button works? I tried to change the grid size to fit my display better and as a result fully destroy the puzzle and couldn't continue solving. Reload of the page doesn't help. Is there a button to return a default settings?

Hi Andrey,Firstly, Sorry for the inconvenience,The "Resize" button works exactly as you described. However, there is a known bug that, if the puzzle was rotated by the author, then the resize button creates an issue. It's a work in progress but might take time to get fixed as I am currently traveling.Can you please let me know which puzzle? So that I make sure, it's because of that reason and not something else.On your second note, how to reset it, This is because penpa_PLUS_ has the feature to save your progress, unfortunately, the grid is now corrupted because of the bug and it got saved that way, follow the below steps to reset it)After you load the puzzle -> Click on the Settings on the Top Right --> Click on "Clear this puzzle" (Located at the bottom of the popup), Set Local Storage --> OFF and then reload the page. It should reset your puzzle back to its original.Let me know if you still face any issues,Thank you.

Hello everyone,
I really enjoy these puzzles, but I am very slow :( I only get by on the EarlyBirds leaderboard...
However, on the Nurimisaki 9, I don't understand what happened: I made two failed validation attempts before I got an accepted validation, after 34.51 minutes!
Problem: I always validated the same solution, just the first two times I still had blue instead of green, and a light grey instead of black. More surprisingly, I don't get any penalties! But then I should have a lower time, corresponding to my first validation, right?
Well, the stakes are not huge: it won't change the general ranking...

There is only one entry in the backend database, so we are not sure how this one happened. Do you have screenshots of error message after you submitted? Don't think it is possible to analyze further without them.

Congratulations to IHNN, WA1729 and Puzzle_Maestro for taking the top 3 spots. This is second win for IHNN after Kurotto Kingdom.

Hope everyone enjoyed the relatively unfamiliar genre.
