You were LUCKY not failing Wordle today, Art. I was able to get this word in three tries: ADIEU, RULER, UPPER. Again, I have my good and bad days in Connections. I can take or leave Strands. I continue to enjoy my Word Hurdle games twice a day with the 6 letters. 😎
Spent too much time defending the solve as opposed to thinking logically. LEVER told you only one E. No need to test word to see if QUEER was the answer.
A nice little compromise between Art and Doug, since Doug is an adament hardcore player, could be that in the competiton between you two, it could be a rule that if you take off hard mode it disqualifies you from getting a point that day. That way Doug can continue "playing with honor" and Art is free to choose how he plays with no judgement. Just a suggestion :)
Connections I didn't find too hard. I actually found purple first (BIDEN CARTER NIXON REAGAN) and then green was ridiculously easy (picnic accessories, shouldn't that be yellow?!). Got yellow in short order, (meaning outperforming someone else) and the four remaining items felt like something from the horse and buggy era. I could not identify light blue but when you can isolate the other three categories without sweat, you get the perfect solve. I have seen Indiana Jones, loved the movie, seen two of the three, but I didn't make the Connection. The puzzle was average difficulty, rating 3/5 by the Bot. Fair enough. Indiana Jones is mainstream enough (as is Popeye, which we had the other day). 67% solve rate, 25% scored the perfect solve. Connections Companion thought it was a bit harder @ 3.3 but that's reasonable. My guess pattern was 1 in 1704, the 6th rarest, and rarer than the reverse rainbow.
An efficient, fun, 6-word sequence, always feeling in control: DRINK SCARE LOVER BUYER UTTER UPPER - There remained risk if the answer was something like REFER
after LEVER there were 17 probable words. QUEER (not a possible word as LEVER rules out 2 E's) would have left you with UPPER or USHER. PURER just left UPPER.

You continue to be a Wordle BEAST, Lisa. In regards to Wordle, I WAS able to get UPPER in three tries: ADIEU , RULER, UPPER 😎

🦃🦃🦃 Gobble Gobble Gobble! You got the 3 in a row turkey! Good job.
GRUMP is pissed he didn't feature in Connections 😂😂😂
Queer has a double E which you eliminated with lever.
It couldn't be QUEER. The E double E was already checked.
Super lucky one for me. URINE UPPER
Good catch. He almost lost thanks to that ridiculous mistake.
Spent too much time defending the solve as opposed to thinking logically. LEVER told you only one E. No need to test word to see if QUEER was the answer.
1 minute isn’t bad for the Mini. Completely respectable 😊
Starting word yesterday SPEND -- spend more time with your family. Today DRINK -- drink lots of water.
