Chugging along on this week's Big Saturday puzzle & suddenly the puzzle got reset.  Is there some random Ctrl-key combination or something that resets a puzzle?  Never seen that happen before.

Perhaps you accidentally pressed a key like F5 which automatically reloads a web page in your browser? In that case, all unsaved puzzle progress would be lost.

Otherwise I'm personally not aware of any hotkeys for puzzle solving, except for the obviously mandatory shift + left-click to draw crosses instead of lines.

Spacebar auto-clicks the last right-of-screen button I've clicked. If I've not clicked anything, nothing happens, but I often use that function to green-line beasts as I go.
