It has come to my attention that 2 players had the URL of the puzzle to change the puzzle to have less pieces but the actual puzzle itself was solved using all the pieces while others with faster times used different ways to solve the puzzle that technically did not change the puzzle/number of pieces. Since those loopholes are technically not cheating the puzzle but solving it in faster methods the results will stand. For the 2 who had the URL of the puzzle with less pieces the actual puzzle was solved with all 150 pieces as reflected in their times not even in the Top 5 or Top 10.
For all those who DQ'd by not sending a valid submission, not sending a submission at all or having their 1 submission with a bad link, the rules state you will lose points but due to the season having a slower start due to myself going on vacation last week, no points will be lost and the game will pick up the pace.
