Welcome to Gaia! ::

This happened to me today on an insane puzzle and I just about lost it because I've had it happen before and know nothing can be done.

The one solution I have found is really time consuming and best done at the end when the piece(s) that has been lost is the only one left. I moved my whole puzzle so that the column missing the piece was up against the side where the piece was lost and the bottom row was at the bottom. Then I moved the whole column off beyond the "borders" of the screen. I moved it in tiny increments up until I was almost off screen with it, then I pushed one more column over and moved it slowly down. Eventually, I "caught" the missing piece with the almost complete puzzle.

This method can take forever though and almost isn't worth it unless the puzzle took you forever to almost finish in the first place. The lost pieces haven't totally disappeared though, they're just lost off to one side off screen.
im missing 9 puzzle pieces. ive pressed the shuffle, ive closed the window, ive restarted my computer and nothing is working. crying
my ENTIRE puzzle just went missing. most tragic day of my gaia life sad

Freeking jigsaw is my fav to play cause I love puzzles but I'm really mad because twice now I have been unable to finish my puzzle due to missing pieces! the first time I accidentally moved pieces off the visible work area. This second time I didn't even notice they were missing until the very end. I didn't do anything with them and shuffle isn't moving them back into the visible work area!!! I want my puzzle pieces and I want my Gaia coins!!! freeking FIX THIS ISSUE by fixing how the puzzle game is formatted or whatever!!!! scream

I know it is almost as if the moderator doesn't care any more, what the heck are we supposed to do boycott jigsaw puzzles? I love doing them but I don't want to if I lose pieces.
Press 'Shuffle" if the piece does not show up try changing the background colour so the piece stands out and moving the rest of the puzzle around. (If your playing from a continued game the pieces overlap) rinse repeat, if that does nothing, then I've got no idea.

I was playing the hardest level for a few hours and the last piece went missing. I want to start new one's, but then I would lose all of that work. The Shuffle button did nothing for me. sad
