competition mode
 

:confused: This has never happened to me before, but recently I've gone to the scores to check my progress and when I start to play again, I've not been logged in to competition mode so I waste a puzzle or two before I notice and log back in. Strange....

Checking scores
 

I usually check my scores several times during a session and have not been dropped. I have inadvertently clicked 'logout' when I was trying to click something else. Then again I've clicked buttons to have nothing happen.
