I haven't been messaged about the removal though. What are my next steps to get it back up? I spent a good while making it and a number of users enjoyed my old one.
I think this could be the case of bot wrongly detecting your post as spam (or moderator mistake), so I would suggest that you always add some text along with uploaded images in future.
You should also think about moving this kind of topic in different section, because Bitcoin Discussion board is full of junk, so maybe moving it to Gambling or something like that will get more audience for puzzles stuff like this.
