Let's Play Connections

[clifffaith]

At first glance, NOTHING jumped out at me. Then I fed cats and sat down to really look at it. It slowly started to take shape.

 

[dsmrp]

Ok, the green category was just wacky today, and the one I got last only by default.
The others didn't jump out at me, but were doable with some thought. The yellow category shows my age, that I can remember such things

A really fast perfect this morning.

 

[DaveNV]

Chose one word wrong. Oops.

[Sandi Bo]

Once again, never would I get the purple.
Looks like we did the same thing @DaveNV

Spoiler: solution

 

[clifffaith]

Managed a perfect score today.

I think you're right. I guessed one wrong on the second one. And not that it matters, but their solution for the fourth row has a word that isn't what they say it is. I think.

Two misses so a solid today.

 

[Rolltydr]

A solid start to the week.

 

[clifffaith]

Blew it today. Rocky start, then it fell apart and I’m not sure why. I never even started the purple category and it should have been obvious!

 

[DaveNV]

I must be having a good day. Wordle in three, and now this. I should go buy a lottery ticket...

The Connections will be easy for me one day, hard the next, and Rick is sometimes the opposite. He will get a connection I just cannot get at all. It's strange.

Seriously. What on earth would you do with 1.5 billion dollars?

Seriously. What on earth would you do with 1.5 billion dollars?

Hmm. Well, let me think. For starters...

[Rolltydr]

I’m beginning to think I’m not very good at this game. I only got one connection before bombing out.

 

[Patri]

I just gave up today. Just tapped random words. The overlap words I understand, to make the puzzle fun. But there were too many references to cultural phenomena I don’t follow.

 

[clifffaith]

Blah. Had an idea of some of the connection categories, but couldn’t make anything work after the creepy crawlies.

 

[slip]

Two misses for a Solid this morning.

 

[dsmrp]

I bombed today. Got one group, and kept missing on 2 others. No way would I know the hardest purple one.

 

[slip]

One miss for a Great this morning.

 

[Sandi Bo]

I think I bombed yesterday and the day before, didn't get a chance to post.

Today! Maybe I should wait til after I've had my coffee more often. (The last 2 days weren't there for me).

 

[Rolltydr]

Two dumb mistakes for a solid.

 

[clifffaith]

After a dismal two days, back to figuring it out except for the usual default purple category.

 

[DaveNV]

I blew it yesterday, like a lot of you. I don't listen to rap music, so it was a big loss for me.

Today, I feel much better!
