When I work on a puzzle offline, save it, and later log online, and try to load my saved solution, it says "Evolver: not met - 9679 points needed". What is this? Can work on puzzles offline, or can't I? I'm a soloist, as far as I know (not member of any groups). I worked 8 hours to get that score, and now I can't use it..?
You are right, if you are not in a group, you shouldn't be turned into an evolver.
Same thing posted by me on forum when server crashed

This can be either a bug or a feature depending on how you look at it...
==> Basically, the reason that this is happening is that the game decides whether you're playing in Soloist or Evolver mode based on whether a different user had worked on the solution. In this case, because the offline solution is not tagged with your username, the program will think that it was started by someone else and thus activate evolver mode when you load the offline solution later.
To my opinion, it would make sense if the game would even tag offline versions with the username.
There is a similar problem with recipes.
If they a created and shared by computer A, you can't unshare them on computer B, it doesn't matter that you are the same user.

Offline play always be as evo play for security reasons.
To back to solo play just reset puzzle and restore very best.
Closing.



Ok, so I did "Wiggle all", and it got "Evolved", and now "all conditions are met". Now I cannot se any player lists (as it consideres me an evolver), and it doesn't list any group names either (wich is no surprise as I am not part of any group). I liked to be a soloist but using my offline work makes me an evolver - and totally alone in ranking lists, it appears. Yes, I am a total newbie here, so I appologise my ignorance.
