Puzzle Streak: a couple of bugs

Hello,

The first is very minor.

For a couple of weeks now, when completing the first puzzle in a streak (or a resumption of a streak) the blue box in the lower right frame (indicating end of streak) momentarily flashes, but then the streak continues. No real effect, just a display glitch, and as I said very minor; more a slight irritation.

The second is a bit weirder and more worrying.

Sometimes a streak stalls, and won't continue, but a simple refresh and redoing the puzzle has in the past always allowed a resumption of the streak. No big issue.

But today while doing puzzle 43 of a streak it stalled, and after refreshing and redoing the puzzle the blue box in the lower right frame indicating failure to solve a regular puzzle displayed, i.e., not a streak end message but "Continue Training" appeared.

Restarting the browser (Firefox), and even rebooting the computer (an oldish laptop) and attempting to resume the streak, which started with the stalled puzzle (43 of the streak), did not help, for the same thing happened, and streak stalled after completing puzzle 43 once again. Switching "Jump to next puzzle immediately" to on or off had no effect. Doing something else, a puzzle storm, and then resuming the streak, also had no new effect, and streak resumed on puzzle 43 and then stalled as above.

The puzzle in question had no number. The only ID is:

I have taken screen shots of the beginning and end of this puzzle.

I am hoping this is only a temporary glitch, and not the end of Puzzle Streak!
