Removed points for Puzzle 1592
Due to serious performance issues for some players, we've removed points and categories from Puzzle 1592: Symmetric Dimer Design: Limited Interface. Players should not feel compelled to play this puzzle to remain competitive on the leaderboards.
However, if you are able to play this puzzle without issue, we will still analyze solutions after the puzzle closes!
Thanks to all the players who offered prompt feedback about the performance problems!
