now you understand my thinking. (Hey Patrick, I have asked for a 'Namaste / Thank You'' icon. How about a 'Wink' icon?)
Not saying I am right, it just works for me.
When on vacation:
Work only on the dailies.
Wait til you return home to work on the Extras.
If being on top is important to you, almost solve the extras - I leave one cell clear.
Solve all of your waiting extras this way, and turn them in all at once.
Caveats:
My vacation are usually 3 weeks or less.
That can mean doing two 15 x 15 puzzles. That can be an issue for some.
Caveats part 2: For Me Only:
I worry about points.
I watch other players in the USA (my country).
I know I will never beat 'mparisi.' But I still strive to be the best I can be.
Even being one of the worst people at timed puzzles.
