It is well-known that Swiss people are slow.

Fabian Cancellara really wants to have a word with you.

Is there any chance we could get a pdf file with the puzzles published so far, updated once a week or or just the whole first month? That would be great for practicing on a bus etc.

(You can't see today's timing unless you have solved today's puzzle)

I find that I can see today's timing at "Results by Players" view (though I haven't solved today's puzzle yet).
Is this an expected behavior?

For now, today's timing is not seen from "Results By Players" page, even after you complete today's puzzle.

It should show "Day n of 50" now.
And we are past the half mark.

I am having trouble starting today's puzzle. It says "Started" and will not begin the countdown of the timer when I click the puzzle.

Also, I sent a PM about a logout issue that was never addressed.

Not sure what could be the issue. I see that others are able to start. In any case, I have removed your start. Can you refresh the page and try again?

Apologies about the delay in reply. It is not possible to logout currently, which I realize is a bad design.

The options at the top of the player don't display properly on today's puzzle - they're hidden behind a scrollbar.

It looks like a 'reporting' bug. For one of the days, your CoPo is almost 0. We'll get it fixed.

I always thought 14-Feb's puzzle will have the highest rating, but that is not the case :-(

Hi,
I am not sure if others are facing this issue or not, whenever the grid size is decreasing the options above it are being hide by a scroll bar.
Even toggling to full screen did not help.

Ravi

I'm also getting the puzzle display problem on the Mar. 16 puzzle where a scroll bar hides the controls. I had this problem at least on other day awhile back. Resizing the main window doesn't help, and the puzzle pane doesn't seem resizable.
