Hi Gareth... it seems wrong to me that anyone using significant aids to complete a puzzle can then mark it as 'easy'. Obviously, if they genuinely found it easy then they wouldn't have used the aids in the first place. I know we've all been caught out having to save a puzzle due to interruptions, or made a simple error we've then had to rectify (or even press an aid button in error!), but I do feel there is a bit of a problem here. Any chance this can be rectified? :)

Took me awhile to do, but it was actually very straightforward; not easy to see all the 'pencil marks' as they are rather small in a 12x12 puzzle. I see the question of aided versus non-aided is rearing it's head again!!

Key
A yellow/light blue highlight in the time distribution charts highlights your time, where relevant.
Rating scores out of 10.0 show the average difficulty rating chosen by users, where 1.0 is "Easy" and 10.0 is "Hard".
If a puzzle is opened more than once, including by loading from a saved position, then this is potentially a significant aid so it is listed as being completed with 'multiple sessions' for the purpose of the best time/average rating displays above.
Minor aid is defined as no more than one use of 'Check solution' when incomplete and/or no more than one use of 'Check solution' when wrong; and/or using highlighting aids (show repeated digits, show broken inequalities and show valid/invalid placements [slitherlink] only). Major aid is any and all other use of the solving aids except for 'show wrong'.
