Ah that explains, thanks!

Another thing I just noticed, it seems impossible to watch replays of (test) solves by others on my puzzles still in draft. I get a "please solve the puzzle first" popup. Seems like a useful option to have for puzzles in testing.

I just had to take down a Scrabble puzzle that was having trouble understanding the answer check. I tried remaking it, this time starting to make it in LMI Expo (previously I imported a Penpa link). So, the same time occurs and I don't understand what to do about it. I tried with all colors for number, capital and small letter. Anyone has experience with solution check having difficulties with letters?

Can you send the puzzle link (penpa link that you tried to import), I can take a look and let you know what could be the issue. Since you don't want to reveal the puzzle publicly before uploading it to Expo, you can send it to the email penpaplus@gmail.com
I can guide you further through emails.

OK

Hii

Where do you guys learn certain techniques for a variation? Like certain youtube channels (CrackingTheCryptic) Haven't solved competitively in years and I want to get back. All suggestions are welcome thank you!

Good work

I was once more victim today of the annoying LMI Expo bug where, sometimes, if your internet connection is unstable right when you finish a puzzle, Expo acts as if you've finished and solved the puzzle, but when you get to the timings & replays screen it doesn't show your name, and when you return to the Penpa page it gives you a blank grid but the timer is still running from the first attempt. Unfortunately the bug is completely silent until you see your time missing from the scoreboard, and at that point you just have to redo a second solve from scratch. I would love it if the code that submits a solve time would check for a database response confirming that the solve time has indeed been recorded successfully before offering to navigate away from Penpa and take you to the score page, and display an error message otherwise.

Denis, We will have a look at it, hopefully soon. We had tried to replicate this in the past, but couldn't proceed much.
