Let's Play Connections

[Sandi Bo]

Just couldn't weed out the correct '5th' blue...
Was convinced it was Big Mac, Big Deal, and was missing something there.
But Phew is better than da bomb...
Maybe if I'd been on my MacBook instead of my cell phone?

I sang one of these, cute one today.
But not familiar with one of the greens (green by default)

Spoiler: solution 5.22.24

 

[marmite]

Yikes. A lot of fumbling this morning, amazed to get purple before green.

Today there were a bunch of strange groupings, yellow was painfully obvious. I thought it couldn’t be correct. I submitted it for the heck of it and suprise! , I was right. The green has one word which does not make sense unless you are familiar with hip hop terms. Lastly the group of purple words is a stretch at best. Still did ok, mostly by luck.

 

[clifffaith]

One word in green by default.

A Perfect today.

OK....purple was about as dumb as I have seen in my few months of playing Connections......

 

[jont]

Purple by default. I second cowboy’s sentiment

 

[Patri]

I did figure out the purple on my own!

[clifffaith]

Not a good day. Also thought I was reading HUNKS, when the word was HIJINKS, until almost the end. Not that that would have helped much.

One miss for a Great today. Purple by default.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Saw the purple when only 8 left, and guessed (but not sure) for the blue category ( it was by default).

I bombed out. Not uncommon for me with this stupid game. LOL!

And come on, the purple was such a farfetched stretch. The only way those words go together is if they're the only ones left, And they have to tell you how they connect. And THEN you still have to walk through each word to see if you can decipher what they meant. Dumb category.

@DaveNV - You're in good company or bad company - I'm not sure which...
I saw the purple but not all 4.
Green is the one I would complain most about - not even close there, although it looks like I was.
I just saw the blue category when I had 1 guess left and I missed. With another guess or two I may have weeded out the one I need to.

Spoiler: solution 5.24.2024

I had CORN in the blue for my last miss.
My purple miss included SCHMALTZ because I had no clue on that one and threw it in (instead of SEA - which I then used thinking SEA of CHANGE).

 

[marmite]

Blue by default and surprised to get purple early. Happy Friday.

 

[tombanjo]

Purple was relatively easy for me todsy

 

[clifffaith]

Blue by default.

 

[jont]

Looks like a lot of us had trouble with blue today. I got purple second and then struggled for a long time with green and blue. I finally just took a guess and got the green . I almost had the blue but I didn’t see window

 

[slip]

One miss for a Great today. Blue by default. I got Purple second today.

 

[clifffaith]

Purple, blech. Glanced at the words and didn’t bother to waste brain cells.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Saw the purple when that's all that was left.

Spoiler: solution 5.25.2024

 

[DaveNV]

Me too. (Except they had to tell me the connection - I saw the words, and could sorta see how they went together, before I read their connection. Glad it defaulted. I wouldn't have guessed it.)

Dave

 

[jont]

blue and purple first? no idea why.

 

[marmite]

I know it looks like I just took a screenshot of @DaveNV 's, but this is legit.

A fast Perfect today with Purple by default.
