That's because your puzzle rating is a lot higher than your game ratings.

The site is going through an overhaul in how the puzzle system works.

This was shared by staff a few weeks ago:

We are currently working on a significant overhaul of our puzzle difficulty system and puzzle ratings. Over time, the current puzzle rating algorithm created highly inflated puzzle ratings for our members — and consequent inaccurate estimates of a puzzle difficulty. As we roll out our new system, you may see some inconsistencies in your puzzle stats, and rating changes from puzzles solved and missed may be greater than in the past.

We ask you to wait with us just a bit longer! Since in the coming weeks we will be publishing an entirely new rating system for puzzles for all members. We’re confident it will be a major steps towards our ultimate goals:

 - Provide a more meaningful rating which correlates more closely to player’s Blitz and Rapid ratings.

 - Serve puzzles better suited for each player’s level.

 - Offer options to member who are looking for different puzzle-solving experiences

The rest of the changes probably don't have too much longer before they're available

Though, I'm guessing you're under 18. In that case you'll need to wait until then

Moderators have to be at least 18 and are volunteers.

That said, general questions should go in the main forums

What about it doesn't help?

Your last 25 puzzles look like you're getting a good mix, and from what I can tell, around the ranges you should be getting

Though it looks you were on Standard for the past few days
