Yes I am quite attached to the puzzle it is there since the beginning :). BUT: it is there for the particular purpose to avoid accidental turning off of the alarm. And now Elementary [1] comes with the widget that plays that rule well enough -- slider -- without the annoyance of the puzzle (yes, I say it too). v0.3 adds the acknowledge window that displays after the puzzle, and consider merging the two into one acknowledge window with two sliders: * first one to turn off the alarm sound (when it is loud you want to turn of this first and not read the message), then * the second to acknowledge you read the alarm message (this will appear if you slide the first one). What do you think of such interface? [1] ffalarms was up to 0.2.2 an Edje interface because this way it was running well on 2008.12, which was much used at the beginning of 2009.
