Post Extra Puzzles
Today's 12x12 was rated easy with a rating of 148.7......do these 2 ratings match or should the easy be changed.........or are all the extra puzzles supposed to be easy........ because, I am still struggling with the June 20th extra 10x10 (easy???)(rated113)........if the extra puzzles are supposed to be easy, then maybe the numero ranking should be lowered.......just a thought [confused]

Good point. Now the extra puzzle star rating is fixed at 3 stars.
Something smarter should be put in place there... [huh]

Some extra puzzle values are hard coded, such as the three stars. They _should_ be made smarter so that they better reflect the actual difficulty of a given puzzle, as indicated by the numerical ranking.
