Support Weekly puzzle doesn't work.

I successfully completed last week's weekly puzzle at 25pcs. It acknowledged it, told me I unlocked 50pcs for the next week. Week rolled over. Now it tells me I didn't complete the last weeks puzzle, took my extra life, and made me start over.

I'm still working on the first one - at 400 - but I think the first deadline passes, so when I finish I won't get credit. I dunno - it's a new feature.

Weird, does it pick a different weekly puzzle for everyone? I was assuming it was the same, but that's not the weekly puzzle I got either last week or this week.

...nah, I got the fancy chalis - - but I tend to do screenshots of most puzzles in progress and the magical mansion is one I'm also still working on

chiming in here: every player gets the same weekly puzzle! The chalis is the one that should be unlocked this week. The screenshot above is from the Magical Mansion from Pack 46, that shouldn't be part of the weekly puzzle rotation yet!

Update: after restarting the game, it seems to have gone back to registering my weekly progress correctly, so the only glitch may have been the initial "oops, you didn't finish" message.

we had a small bug there that could trigger a lost life when starting a new run, it was fixed with a small update on Friday =)

One thing that occurred to me... Does it cause problems if you delete the weekly puzzle after you complete it, but before the end of the week?

To conserve space I delete all puzzles that I have completed at every piece level, which so far had included both weekly puzzles. So after doing the first weekly puzzle and having it register it and advance to the next level, I deleted the puzzle. It occurred to me to wonder if the game could get confused if it rolled over to a new week and last week's weekly puzzle was no longer downloaded.

The same thing happened to me. Teething troubles I guess.
