Let's Play Connections

[Rolltydr]

Phew! The connections were fairly obvious but I couldn’t get the right combination on the blue category.

Hard one today. But it's always so much easier when you see the answers.

Crashed and burned. THe blue did me in. Kept eliminating one of the five characters, but always chose the wrong one.

I actually thought to try to solve the purple first, but got nowhere because I could only find three words that didn’t seem to have another place to be. So I limped along, and only got purple by default. And I am embarrassed I couldn’t get it without being told.

A Phew for me too.

Bombed this morning.

 

[Patri]

The blue rose to the surface first for me. Then I got them all.

 

[Rolltydr]

I was lucky. I got the green and yellow but had no clue on the blue and purple. I gave it my best guess for the purple and voila! Got the blue by default. Perfect!

 

["Roger"]

First with the green and then with the yellow had to figure out which one of five to leave out. Happy to escape with a solid.

 

[clifffaith]

No joy today.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Only got the green. That blue group will get me every single time. I was on the right track for yellow and sort of, but not exactly on the purple. But nada on the blue, which was key, IMO! Nice work you perfect people!!
FWIW, I failed quickly, lol.

Spoiler: solution

One miss for a Great this morning. Got the Purple by default.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Never would have gotten the purple. Had all my guesses left for yellow and failed to weed out the right one (or the wrong one, however you look at that).

Spoiler: solution

 

[Rolltydr]

It took a minute, and two wrong guesses but it was a solid performance. Fortunately, I did figure out the purple which helped me nail down the yellow.

 

[clifffaith]

Perfect today!

 

[Patri]

Just made it, but I had to figure out which purple didn’t go in the yellow.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Just made it, but I had to figure out which purple didn’t go in the yellow.

That was my issue, but I failed - I had 4 chances (needed 5).

 

[Sandi Bo]

I'll take it as I really started out CLUELESS!

Spoiler: solution

I grouped YELLOW thinking 'things you look back on or through' - I'll take it, but got it for the wrong reasons.

 

[Rolltydr]

One miss this morning. I’m embarrassed to admit that I could never get the connection between the yellows.

 

[clifffaith]

Took me a minute today. Purple by default

 

[DaveNV]

Couple goofs, but I'll take it.

Dave

 

[Sandi Bo]

I'll take it - one miss.

Spoiler: solution

I had the homophones - but included TEE (not seeing it was number homophones)

 

[slip]

Two missed for a Solid this morning. I got the blue by default.

 

[Rolltydr]

I was able to get a very quick perfect this morning. Of course, as usual, purple by default.

 

["Roger"]

I probably shouldn't post because I have been bombing out lately and not fessing up. Today was unusual, however, in that I got the purple on line one. I ended up with a perfect, but it was the blue that baffled me. So everything was upside down.
