Sudoku ad server making sudoku game play impossible

Here is my screenshot of the Sudoku AD popping into the game playing field instead of staying in the square blue box for it. i1274.photobucket.com/.../Sudoku%20Ad%20Interference_zps4h8gsecv.jpg.

Normally you are right and you can use it the next day. But now it is already 3 days, and with sudoku i only get the wrong ad and cannot play sudoku now for 3 days,

I agree. Sudoku has all the problems of any store app or game I've ever tried to use. The longer you play, the slower it gets. Impossible to play for an extended period of time without restarting. Every fastest time I have for every level is always from
the first game I've played in any session. I've had it freeze and crash, and this is on an Asus ROG machine that shreds just about everything.

Then again, maybe this is why: MS games make a call to the server every time you click. Even though the game doesn't use much in the way of bandwidth, I think we can blame a lot of the problems on MS/Xbox Sudoku servers. It would
certainly make much more sense to run the game on your local machine and just serve the original set-up and send the results back to MS.

I have the exact same problem. I have uninstalled & reinstalled with no result. I can click on the green xbox button in the upper right hand corner of Sudoku and be signed into xbox without any problem. I can exit Sudoku, sign into xbox, and punch the
"play Sudoku" button, which initiates Sudoku, but Sudoku still says it cannot connect to xbox.

I have on a couple of occasions seen a message momentarily when I first initiate Sudoku that seems to imply that this is a new version of Sudoku and you don't have to sign into xbox to play it. But then I don't have any history
of my playing Sudoku over the past 4 years. The message disappears before I can study it. Is there a new version of Sudoku that is causing my problem?

Help

Ok, I tried to perform a clean boot and I got the problem to change. Sudoku would now crash as it starts (the Sudoku window will appear and then disappear). I tried to reset and then to uninstall/reinstall Sudoku and now I am back to it loading but when
I try to play any game, I get the end screen of the ad and when I close the ad, I go back to the selection screen. Is there a log file somewhere that will tell me what is going on?

I am manually checking for updates and windows has no updates available/pending. I have exited the clean boot (after Sudoku was crashing) and I am ready to try the next troubleshooting step.
