2Solve.Me - Solve & Create your own quiz and jigsaw puzzles [Paused Project Development]

Popping in to agree with the others that the cooldown after getting a question right is extremely annoying. Worse, pushing the Enter key always resubmits the first question's answer, not the answer I currently have selected (the one I just finished typing), meaning I have to wait for the cooldown AGAIN. I think PicoMan has the right idea to reduce the cooldown to 3 seconds.

What always irritated me on ITH was the static cooldown number, refreshes only when clicking 'Submit'... thus one never knows when it ends without clicking again. I think such a thing should auto-refresh, and the button be disabled until the countdown ends (like, you can even show the countdown on the button itself).
...and also, where are the hints ? I would need one for #3, it points to an obscure youtube video, but then ? it's not the unicode emoji, and in ascii it's only garbage. The three others are much much more easier...

I love the frame for the puzzle -- no more creating the frame w/the puzzle pieces, finding out there isn't enough room for it as it stretches into the area I've spread loose pieces in, and then having to move them around to make room. For that matter, it's hard to tell with so few pieces in the 1st puzzle, but I never liked how jigidi dumps all the pieces on top of each other at the start, as if spreading the pieces out to not overlap each other is an important part of solving the puzzle. Maybe the default behavior could start with all the pieces randomly spread around the frame, outside of it and not overlapping each other, but pretty tightly packed together so you could easily zoom in as much as possible while still seeing everything. The non-overlapping thing doesn't have to be perfect with each piece's protrusions, but maybe you could even make it so that it doesn't allow pieces to be placed on top of each other, and if you try to do that, the 2 pieces will just swap places, which would make sorting easier, but maybe that's too hard. Wow, I didn't think I would write that much, but I guess I have a lot of pent-up frustration w/Jigidi.

enter key on quiz appears to activate the first question regardless of context, and seemed to mark it incorrect even when both it and the question i had highlighted were correct, not willing to keep poking with 30 second timeouts

Here is some feedback :)

• I closed the tab by mistake and when I re-opened it my answers were lost. Itstoohard had them cached or something so when re-opening the tab they would still be there. If you could implement that, it'd be great
• the focus on the fields doesn't follow when you type in another field. Here's what I mean: I skipped a few questions and went straight to the last field, typed my answer in then hit enter. But the focus was still on the first field so it thought I was trying to submit my answer to the first question and used that submit button, instead of the one where I was actually typing. This is pretty annoying because you have to click on the button if you want it to work, which is way less efficient than using the keyboard only.
• I typed the last answer in all caps by mistake and it counted as wrong. Maybe make the fields non-case-sensitive by default and add a checkbox to allow people to make them case sensitive if they want to?
• Other people have already complained but yes the delay is a real pain.

I can confirm that the jigsaw is not working on Firefox (latest updates, Windows 11). The quiz worked fine, and I left my feedback in the giveaway.

Amazing contributions you are making to the community! Keep up the great work :)

Also, I agree with others that Steam OpenId would be more secure/safe than creating a login.

Thank you for this new tool :)

Given the loss of It's Too hard, it's cool to have an alterative, and it worked as I expected. I personally didn't notice anything too strange although I didn't go out of my way to break anything. Saving current completion would be the thing I want most that's currently not there.

The jigsaw was a bit weird personally. I guess I'm just used to the way jigidi does it with the piece clicking in vs matching pieces on a fixed grid. A major issue I did have is with the zoom functionality though. By default some pieces were out of screen so I moved my scroll wheel one notch it was way too zoomed out. So I try to zoom back in but that goes too close. In the end I just reset the puzzle, never touched the zoom and shifted around the screen with right click when needed.

In both cases I got steamgifts giveaway links which I assume work. The one in the jigsaw wasn't copyable, which would be a nice convenience.

The quiz part is ok
But the puzzle part sucks, jigidi.com is better

• cant copy url from puzzle
• i need to solve it again to get the message
• the pieces can snap on already placed pieces and in the wrong place
• the pieces don't snap one to another

Bumf

The jigsaw puzzle pieces appear in random places but you may want to make it so at least one piece is guaranteed to appear inside the puzzle box. The first time i loaded there were only a sliver of a single piece visible at the edge of the screen (outside the box) and the box took up nearly all the screen because my primary display is only 1600x900 resolution. Since I didn't notice the sliver of a piece I assumed the puzzle was still loading and after a while I thought maybe the box was a CSS glitch and tried scrolling down, only to have the puzzle zoom out and see the pieces. This wasn't an issue when I tried it on my higher resolution secondary display.

Can you fit the box to only take up a % of screen space by default, to account for various resolutions?

Bump.
This service's quiz section is very useful to me, thank you oh so much and keep it up!

Noticed defects/suggestions:

1. Can't reproduce, but the very first time i solved my quiz just as a smoke-test, it didn't show defined end message, just all questions highlighted as answered and that's it. Had to refresh the page and reenter all the answers again and only then it fixed for me. Sorry for limited info, I didn't investigate it more.
2. Ability to edit an active quiz would make me a happier person.

Questions:

1. Every solver is shown as anonymous, even though I solved it one of the first or so while definitely logged in screenshot. Does it skip the author intentionally or no?
2. Is this even supported project still? Like are you interested in bug reports and stuff, are there release notes anywhere? Cause itstoohard.com is no more and as far as I'm aware, there aren't many services like this
3. Is there maybe a public git repo or something?

Will there be support for images in questions? Or is it there but I'm not seeing it?
Thanks :)

I'm sorry to hear about your issues, I hope things are looking up :)
I used the old site a lot in the past, but I have kinda moved away from SG puzzles.
However I am part of a different community now that do puzzles with images and quizzes with trivia sometimes, so I have been looking at your project to maybe do some of those :)
It would just be me posting 10 images instead of questions, and they have to guess what each represents, so as you said, only "simple" image code is needed. I say "simple", because I can't do it, but it should be simple for you :)
But please focus on you! I'd rather see a happy healthy MikBok117 :)

🤔BUMP🙄

Someone lamented the lack of itstoohard, so to consider alternatives.

There is some bug, when I return to quiz that I tried to solve yesterday, all yesterday answers are in wrong places and wrong question is marked as incorrect/unsolved.

Can you redirect to the last page (quiz) you were at, after logging in?

When you are logged out ("invalid token"), you are also redirected away from a quiz, to the front page.

I like your project.

Yesterday I struggled with a quiz, and eventually realized I was getting the answer wrong because I'd left a space at the end of my answer. I realize this is a user-generated-problem, but it may help overall to snip spaces off of user's guesses (and the puzzle-creator's specified solutions).

Also, your header above still lists the Pause button as coming soon, but it's live (and a nice addition).

Thanks for supporting our community with this tool!

May I suggest sanitizing input when after a user submits an answer:

• remove any whitespace from the beginning and the end (a stray space or tab happens often when copying and pasting)
• ignore character case (this should make it easier for both users and puzzle creators, who won't have to specify two or more versions of a single answer).

Since the site was used normally until yesterday, there is probably no problem, but we inform you just in case.📡

any chance of adding options for multi choice answers like we say 4 answers and one is correct and they have to select it or to have pictures included in the questions - thanks

Just wants to mention this...
