Total time is wrong for Microsoft Solitaire Event Challenges

If you retry, the timer starts from zero. But, when you finish the time added for this challenge is the total time used of all your attempts for the challenge not just the last one.

The problem, I think, is that it does not matter how long each individual challenge takes you to complete the game adds the time it takes for each advert, the length of  time between each game beginning and the next one starting and if you start the challenge then go to bed ready to finish it the following day the hours that you are sleeping is also included in your total.

The same thing just happened to me. I just played an event in what was probably about an hour and 10 minutes, and would have put me in first place in my group. I did not check the leaderboard until the very end, so I never looked at how long I'd taken so far. When I finished, they said my time was 6 hours and 45 minutes, which put me in 21st place - so far. I am so upset. When I first tried to start the first challenge in the event, it would not actually load. I left it like that and did some other things, completely forgetting about it. When I came back, it was still trying to load, and I think I was somehow on the clock that entire time!

Today I got 9:45:35 for solving the 20 games of the event, thats impossible. Of course that what happened was that I started a game and then I had to close the game on a rush to attend to something urgent. I returned to solitaire 8 hours later... guess what happened...

I once had a similar issue when I was on an airport and had to board the plane and on a rush closed the laptop (it entered hibernation), when I resumed the computer... the game was still counting the time, so the specific challenge had a terrible time.

I just tried the game again and the same results except that it is MUCH better although still not correct.  I played 3 games.  5:21, 2:57 and 1:58  The total that the game got was 10:19 but if you add them up you actually get 10:16.  Still not quite right.
