    Hopefully not too many changes to the code! haha. Just kidding.

    Your reply reminded me of when I was writing my script to highlight rows and columns (also to more deeply learn javascript/CSS and working with AI). I was just writing it as a personal project to run in firefox dev tools (in the console). Jese what a ride that was. Trying to follow all the code in the DOM tree. After doing that for a few days, I just accessed all the cell divs directly and did my script from scratch in my own way.

    It would be hilarious if after doing that, a change broke my script. But if you need a code assistant, I know someone who has some experience with the site's scripting and CSS haha.

        I tried to restart game 139595707 three times- I was repeatedly interrupted with a Pandora ad that took me away from the puzzle about 10 seconds after the page loaded.

          I'm having trouble with that too. I wouldn't mind as much if it went back to the puzzle after, just a mild annoyance at that point for losing a few seconds to an ad. But I've been trying to do the same puzzle for 5 minutes now. I've closed the tab and opened a new one, I've tried started starting a new puzzle and still got the kriffing ad. It's driving me nuts.

          Update: Of course after posting this it finally went away. At least I can solve puzzles now.

            I was able to find an option to stop showing that ad- there was an ellipsis in the upper right, I believe. First time I clicked the option "ad is blocking content"... but when I tried to restart, the ad came up again, so instead I selected "I've seen this ad multiple times." It didn't obstruct the game after that (though I did notice the ad playing in the side panel when I got to the scores/results page, so it can apparently play without being a complete screen-stealing nuisance). Just wanted to share that piece of advice in case it comes back.
