I do know the following. Even as an Admin, I need to be logged in order for the puzzles to load, although I don’t know if that was the case from the beginning since I am normally logged in. I do have Jetpack, WPCache, and more recently Wordfence, among other fronted user plugins. Let me start with a step by step trace to disable and test plugins and see if I can locate something for you. Give me a couple of days.
