Update: Just updated to 64.0.3282.119 and I still observe the buggy behavior.

Further update: This works fine on version 65.0.3325.18 on the unstable channel, so this can probably be closed. Sorry for the noise!

Thanks for the report!  However, I'm not able to reproduce the issue on either 64.0.3282.119 or 66.0.3334.0, either when running with or without --site-per-process.  In all cases, I do see a black square when initially loading that URL, which gets filled with a video ad after a few seconds, and then redirects to the list of available crosswords.

The error you mention from the console log seems to occur both with and without --site-per-process, so I suspect it's an issue on the site.

Let us know if you think there's something worth investigating, but I'll close for now as you suggest in comment 2.  Thanks!
