Great!

I can't find an obvious way to post additional images onto a solved puzzle. The quick edit function doesn't contain any link. Please explain in very simple instructions because I really am that incompetent.

Thanks Pal. I have the aptitude of Homer Simpson.

I can't work out how to add points, I owe Lavrakas a point for solving my Allard puzzle.

[pnegyesi]

Under the name you can see this. At the bottom are their points and below that add/deduct

[neilshouse]

Thank you Pal, I was using my phone and things look different there. I will log in on a PC and award the point.

[Wendax]

Just turn your phone by 90 degrees to landscape format and the buttons will appear on the lefthand side.😉

[neilshouse]

Thank you Wendax, it didn't work for me though... technology! it's supposed to make our lives easier!
However I have logged on using a proper computer and Lavrakas has his point.

Oops, sorry, I never visited the site on a phone - so I had no idea

AutoPuzzles.com is loading very slowly today, sometimes even too slow for the browser to keep the connection. 😒

And then the server crashed I wish Charlie (Ultra) would cooperate with us, it'd make our life so much easier.

A little update.
AutoPuzzles is moving to a new, more stable and faster server. Over the course of the next 2-3 days there will be outings, you will see error message starting with 502 Bad Gateway. We are sorry, we'll try to limit downtime to a minimum.

I saw this message this morning, but it was quickly resolved.

[nicanary]

Yes, I have that sort of message every day at various times. Unable to connect. Plus I have 100s of Guest User entries in my error log, which are easily cleared. Wendax reckons they're part of the DDoS attempt to hack into AP.

I have no idea what they're trying to achieve. Irritating little bastards.

"If I restart the site there are 150 connections made in a second" - this is the reality we are facing. We are now putting in filters to prevent the site from crashing so frequently.

[pnegyesi]

So a little update. As mentioned before the site is being bombarded by bots. It is very difficult to filter out these connections. There are now filters in place, so the site will be a bit slower but will be steady (fingers crossed). Please let me know if you experience any difficulties.

Sorry and thank you

Thank you for all your efforts in our service!
