Let's Play Connections

[clifffaith]

Failed today

 

[DaveNV]

Two wrong guesses, based on not overthinking one category. Once I realized how specific the choices were, I got it right. So 2/4 today.

2 misses for me. gotta find me a new song.
interesting the easy (green) was the hardest for me

 

[slip]

My first perfect.

 

[clifffaith]

Aaargh, one error then quickly got the connection!

 

[dsmrp]

2 errors today. I subconsciously guessed the trickiest category based on one of the words.
A very tentative unsure guess!

DH had to help me today (for which I will never hear the end of)...

I wish he could have helped me. I bombed again. Sheesh!

 

[DaveNV]

Oopsie. Blew it today. Two of the four groups confused me. By the time I figured it out, Game Over.

I bombed to. When I saw the answers at the end, I thought I entered one correctly but I don't think it would have mattered anyway.

It would be nice if we could see a history of what we entered. I wasn't sure (talk about short term memory). I suppose I could write them down, lol.

Lol, yes, I agree. It would be nice. I could have swore I entered the correct group but I have been wrong before.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Perfect today, but never would have put the purple one together.

Coffee and Green easy enough. But Tree Nuts - luck, I grouped them because typically only one nut per shell, got lucky. Remaining Mr.... MEH
Fun game though!

 

[Rolltydr]

I agree, Sandi. I couldn’t wait to see what the common thread was on that one.

 

["Roger"]

What makes this game interesting is that there is always a group of five which seem to go together. Which one to leave out. If you start guessing, you can use up your turns quickly.

With regard to the final line, I made the suggestion that they should add four words that are not related at all. Then, when you get to the end, you have to figure out how four words which don't seem at all related really are. If they did that, you wouldn't see so many posters claiming success.

 

[DaveNV]

One error, but it took a bit. Process of elimination of what I knew were related groups, then trying to figure out the connections for the remaining words. The last group made no sense to me till they were the only words left. When they showed me their connection, I was like, "Well, okay. Sure. But who would think along those lines??"

[clifffaith]

No errors, but didn’t know what the last category words had in common until reading the title.

 

[slip]

Perfect today.

 

[Rolltydr]

Perfection for me, also. I seem to be very inconsistent with this game.

 

[clifffaith]

Easy for me today!

 

[billymach4]

Perfection for me as well

 

[dsmrp]

Two days in a row without a mistake. I don't know if I can keep it going tomorrow...

 

[DaveNV]

Perfect day for the kid. I'll take it!
