Guessed Word Correctly on First Try (5/30) but not getting credit #72

Hello!

Thank you for your fun simple game that is updated daily!

For the first time, I encountered a glitch. Also for the first time, I got the EASY word correct on the first try. I've been guessing "fire" everyday, so it was cool that it was actually that word. After I submit my name "Paintedface", the screen appears as normal:

however, when I try to see the leaderboard, it acts as though I did not solve the puzzle. I can't see people's guesses and my name appears nowhere (even

Refreshing the page or reopening in a new tab shows the attached screenshot.

I had no issues with the HARD word for today.

Any chance I can get my 1 guess 0 seconds attached to my username "all-time" stats?

Thanks for reading!

Oh well! I guess I'll just have to wait for lake to be an easy word. So weird that it glitched like that the ONE time (on easy) I get it right on the first try. Bummer. Maybe my internet connection died at the exact wrong moment. So weird, and yet, kinda the story of my life.

One example: I was one of 4-7 (can't remember exactly) people to get the Presidential Fitness Award every year in High School. At the final Senior assembly, they called up each person to go to the "stage" to be congratulated in front of everyone. They did not call my name. Story of my life lol.
