Season 1 Solves - Is the new site working? I've spent the day solving some of the cards I picked up recently, but have had no luck putting the answers in. Flustered, I confirmed my answers with the accepted solutions posted in these forums, but the PXC site says my answers are incorrect.
I've tried the following today:
#68 -Picto Dot
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Cat
#99 - Well Red Ad
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Economist
#102 - Riff
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Smoke on the Water
Come As You Are
Sweet Child Of Mine
Today
#222 - Instigator
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Jack
with no success.
Has anyone else been able to have Season 1 answers accepted? I solved #116 - The Rice Gambit, #129 - Dot Gone, #142 - Photoshopped, #157 - International Superhits, #167 -Circular and #177- Consider a Spherical World two days ago, and it accepted them fine.
Going through my cards, I realized I also solved #051 - Jigsaw today, and it was accepted. Are my answers just off? Someone please help!
EDIT - moved to Card-specific questions forum - SG

I can confirm your answers for 68, 99 and 222 are all correct. Can't remember for 102.
However, I know there was a fix today, since yesterday my Road Trip solve didn't work, and today it does. Perhaps the fix broke the old ones? I know my Instigator worked yesterday (or the day before).

Answer for 102 is definitely correct as well.

There are definite problems with some of the answer submission pages for Season 1 cards on the new site.
I have so far attempted answers for #131, #161 and #216, with only the first card being accepted.
#161 - Dances With Bees is particularly galling. I've had my answer confirmed by other players, but not only will the submission page not accept it, it won't accept any of the possible answers (and won't lock you out either).
I have e-mailed Mind Candy, but so far without response. They have however corrected another problem I found which was that incorrect information (i.e. it applied to a different card) appeared on the answer pages for #161 and #216. The Errata for #216 has also now been added.

Good - I'd e-mailed them about that when the beta first went live.
I've noticed I haven't gotten locked out of Season 1 cards either. I wonder if that limitation has been removed because Season 1 is, well, yesterday (ie. the leaderboard is locked).
I've also noticed that if I just put in a new answer and click Check Answer, it doesn't always have the same effect as when I click "Try Again" and THEN put in a new answer. Sometimes correct answers aren't accepted if I don't follow the Try Again link first.

I have a new one here
I finally scratched my copy of Shuffled, which I've left untouched since I got it in a pack on Wave 3 launch day, and tried entering the code on the site so that I could get at the large image of the card on there. Thought it might be useful to inspect it closely for kloos.
The site wouldn't accept the card code. It has none of the high-risk characters in it like Zs or 0s.

Smartyman, over here:

observed that he got the site to work in Firefox but not IE, and specs that its some kind of javascript-IE conflict.
Which may explain why I can't play some of the meatier puzzles on the site either.

I have just bought a box of the Season 1 cards and none of the cards have been solvable on the website for me so far. It keeps telling me I have the wrong answer even though I got the answers from the forums here.

Doesn't bode well for the Season 2 launch if the solvifying is still broken.
