In the rule “Turns”, replace
If it is a Puzzler’s Turn and their Coins have been 0 for the last 6 hours, and it has been at least 6 hours since the Turn Order was last modified, that Puzzler’s name may be removed from the Turn Order by any other Puzzler, but if the Turn Order becomes empty within 6 hours after this action was performed, the Turn Order may not be modified again until at least 6 hours after this action was performed.

If it is a Puzzler’s Turn, that Puzzler’s name may be removed from the Turn Order by any other Puzzler if it has been at least 6 hours since the Game Board was last modified and that Puzzler has performed at least one Turn Action since the Turn Order was last modified. However, if the Turn Order becomes empty as a result of this action or within 6 hours after this action was last performed, the Turn Order may not be modified again until at least 6 hours after this action was last performed.
I realised that because a turn begins with 0 coins, the player in turn could be removed from the Turn Order if they don’t notice within 6 hours that it’s their turn. Also, collecting Matches and filling cells doesn’t use coins so even with 0 coins the player might not be ready to finish their turn.

I don’t know if 18 hours is enough for a Puzzler to start their turn. If someone is traveling for a day, or just happens to have a busy day, they might not get a chance to take their turn.
