"...5 months, 1 day, 23 hours, 20 minutes and 42 seconds (1 hour, 54 minutes and 56 seconds active)"
I know it took me a while to solve this one in particular, but wow.

Only one acronym in all that is GNU/Linux and FOSS can describe this:
WTF?

This last one that I started new just after posting this thread says:
You completed the puzzle in 19 hours, 43 minutes and 58 seconds (19 minutes 25 seconds active)
You got 0 hints
I'm pretty sure this is a known issue, but it's still such a wacky bug and fun to post about.

You might have surpassed the space-time continuum and your personal computer created a time-space bubble warping the dimension of time around itself that makes it seem like it has really taken 77 years.:)
Or maybe it's just an error.:(

After upgrading to Intrepid, I too am experiencing anomolies in the space-time continuum. Puzzles that on earth time take about 20 minutes report as taking several hours. This only started after upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10. I also have a screenshot of one puzzle I had almost completed (one tile was still empty) that it indicates I won. So it seems like something has happened to Sudoku. Where is the best place to report it? Peace - Anthony

As I figured, the bug is already reported here:
