Dear 'ducamax66', no need to feel offended or attacked. If I would have felt like you, I would have had to stop solving puzzles immediately, after I have solved the first ones. I remember, everybody of the 'long-time-established pro's' felt convinced, that I've used 'google-search-by-image'. And, after thinking why that happened, I went clear, I've offered the right answer, without any questioning. Of course, this made people suspicious. Of course, nobody noticed that I spent a lot of time researching. A way to find a solution, how you act too apperently. Absolutely within the rules.
My advice: 'AutoPuzzles' isn't a hard competition, but a brilliant game for car-nuts. Please, only think about yourself. You are the player. You are allowed to use all the different puzzles, proofing your personal knowledge. You cannot reach a goal, like 'World Champion'! We are only using leisure time, to follow our hobby. Nothing more
I hope this helps a little bit, blowing anger in the winds
