Deprived of a win

[DogMa]

I just finished puzzle #74582787. I had the right answer at one point but was prevented from submitting it. I erased the word I suspected of being the problem and asked for hints; the blue letters showed that I had been correct. I got a win with hints and a time penalty through no fault of my own.

What was it you were going to win?

[DogMa]

A better score!

That has happened to me several times.

I'm glad to have confirmation that it really does happen, but I'm sorry it has happened to you. Not fair!

I’ll be implementing some debug code to try to figure out why this might be happening. I’ve never yet encountered it myself in the wild but enough people have mentioned it that it clearly seems to be an issue. Thanks!

This has happened to me several times as well. Frustrating.
