A marathon of games! Let me know what you think of the game selections and, of course, how you fared on them. Thanks for watching and have a great day!
Brilliant Wordle! Five for me: AROSE, THING, CLUMP, BAWDY, KNACK. Wow! Perfect reverse Connections. I got only the two easy groups. I was thinking ... LAUNDRY, ... OIL or ... VACUUM but nope. RIP. Superb Tuesday Mini! Exactly one minute for me. Excellent custom! I think you can earn money for your school by collecting cereal box tops. I don't know exactly how it works; I have no kids. I saw 3 classic ensembles, 2 slips but also 2 words that were completely foreign to me and quickly deteremined that this was way above my pay grade. Excquisite Strands! I didn't understand the theme and needed hints to figure it out. After that, all the words were easy. Mandatory trivia quiz: what is the world's largest even-toed hoofed mammal? The blue whale of course. Great Zorsly! Great Hang Five. Three wrong consonants for me. Ultimate Word Grid! You found the winning strategy: be the first one in the world to play and get 9 unicorns. I have tried it a couple of times but someone always beat me to one of my words and I scored a devastating 50% on it. I didn't know yet that I could have changed my guess. I have succeeded a couple of times in GeoGrid. That game is not updated in real time; if multiple players load the app before any games have been completed, they can all score 0.00% even with the most obvious answers. But you have to know geography trivia. Perfect Stacked! I think I saw this on SolverTom's stream last night so I can no longer solve it solo. Great Word Salad! I missed this one. Fine Letter Loop. I didn't pre-play this but saw he solution at about 1:40 while you were playing. Thank you for playing Xordle today so I can boast of my result: I aced this in easy mode. Granted, this was an easy one and we just had holey foods in Strands yesterday. Very good Cladder!

OK, I looked this up. Perfect martinis are a 50/50 mix of gin and vermouth. Dry martinis have less vermouth, wet martinis have more. A dirty martini has olive brine added.
In college, I wrote papers directly on a typewriter. Several times I turned in the first draft, because I was either out of time or just didn’t want to start over. No such thing as editing, other than whiteout.
Oranje, beautiful solve. I was rooting for you!! Art inspired the things on/in rolls category. Great job picking up on the slips. I meant to use permission instead of banana in the final version. 🙃 Guess I posted the penultimate version. My prediction was you were going to get purple by default, but I included Greenies and Sheba because they are for dogs, too. Fantastic for picking it out I visit Furball Farms Cat Sanctuary a lot. They get Churu and Tempations by the truckload. While visiting and watching snack time for 350+ cats, the Tempations misdirect just jumped at me. Awesome job!!

You and Art are amazing with Connections, Adam. I can relate better with players having average skills in this game. Doug and I were not successful today in Connections. I ironically solved Melodilynn's puzzle with no mistakes and I am not a science person. Again , I was happy solving Andrea's puzzle with two mistakes .Also, Wyna continues to llike her BOOZE. I was fine in Wordle and Strands.
You speed ran the mini! I got it in 1:17 and I thought that was good. How on earth would you know a bold haircut is edgy of all things? Does "Hear me Roar" come from Helen Reddy's song "I am Woman" of 1973? I didn't get it right away because I was thinking of Katy Perry. And finally 4 down I had RACE instead of RACY, but I was able to easily fix it. TNT I did get right away.
I was proud of myself for getting perfect on the strands puzzle. But after your comments when you did the puzzle i no longer feel like it was a big deal. LOL
It was more of an observation than a critical statement of anyone’s performance. Maybe their number of players are down on Strands because they were making it too devious. I know at least three UA-camrs who dropped the game from their repertoire completely.
@@ADailySliceOfOranje i am not very good at strands but I play it daily. I'm not afraid of using hints to get the solve going. I hope the UA-cam guys that dropped strands would give it a try again in the future. I recall the since of frustration that they were going through at one point or another.
Don't short change yourself, Ray. Oranje did a project on the BLUE WHALE in the 5th grade. Other type of whales in his paper must have been mentioned in comparison to THIS whale.

You did a good job solving. Connections today. 😎
@@hopechazz What's more the Connections Companion rated this one 4/5 which they consider *really* challenging. So, that puts Oranje and Art on another level because they both got perfect solves. Doug only found two categories.
I can't begin to compare myself to Art and Oranje in this game, Tigerboy. I just focus on getting more successful games and forget about the RAINBOWS. 😂😂😂

Chazz, thanks for playing my puzzle. I'm thrilled you were successful. Donyou feed your kitties any of those treats?
I did the temptations treats, but I now just feed my cats the healthy dry food/grain free.
@hopechazz none of my cats liked tempations treats. They prefer soft or lickable treats.
My cats also did not like the temptations treats, Andrea. 😂

@@rayleroux3188 It is a fun game but when they put in those 10 letter-long obscure teas it gets a bit too much for most people to handle.
