I hated Gem Match at first and thought it was just too difficult and frustrating, or used up too many tools. But I was determined to get better at it and so forced myself to play it over and over. Surprise! I got better and better at it, yet still found it challenging (iin a good way). Now I LOVE it. If I could just GM was a freestanding game, I'd play almost nothing else. All this was before I participated in any timed event challenges. Now I have a sphere and a pyramid and am at Professor level and half way to the next. I almost never need the time machine anymore, but Seeker's Eyes are a must for those last one or two stubborn tiles.

Personally, I'm cool with the challenges being focused on Gen Match, because I will be playing it anyway and get extra stuff. But it does seem unfair to not rotate the play more. But I'm sure it's because it's harder, and fewer people play it.
