You must have opened this puzzle before. According to the new rules, the clock starts ticking from the moment you open the puzzle for the first time. So if you open it today, play for a couple of minutes, then close and continue tomorrow, it will count as several hours. I suggest planning your time carefully when approaching complex puzzles to solve them in one sitting

When I open a puzzle, and then do nothing because of a house call, I back out without touching the puzzle. Then when I go back in, days later, it's in the thousands.

I liked the old rules as a housewife...

The new rules suck. LOL

I understand your frustration, but, unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it After all, the timer only matters if you participate in tournaments.
