Has there been an update to the game?  My internet was down last night so maybe I was playing an old version?

I just know the two little circles would appear, the outer one would shrink, and there were no symbols at all.  A Y would then appear (and my Y button does work) for a brief time, and then the red X would appear telling me I failed.

Ya there was an update on day one.  But, I think what your saying does happen to me and I think it's normal. 

It should start as this:

Then the outer circle should shrink and hit the second circle, which should then show you what button to press and will glow green also..  And then you have until the outer circle gets to the smallest circle and if you don't press he button before it gets to the small circle it will show a red x that you failed.
