This puzzle can be completed easily by only doing a shake to 6825 (no flipping at all) than a wiggle to finish in about 15 seconds total.

But if you try flipping the sheet, it will take forever to shake to a decent value before the wiggle.

This puzzle should be corrected. It 'frustrates' all newcomers for nothing.

previously this level had the opposite problem, but it was resolved a year ago:

thank you for reporting this (indeed, just a shake and wiggle will solve this)
although doing is the correct way:
1) Tweak->Flip Sheet Down to the right
2) Shake (to about 4200)
3) Wiggle

seems to work as well, but obviously there is no point in doing that if you can just shake/wiggle to beat it!
