      We went to go see the wizard of Oz play every few years in school when I was growing up. I assumed everyone did. I also saw the movie a handful of times growing up

    Oh wow! I'm part of the 13% that got blue first. I was really pleased to find them... and oddly it still took a while to find "use" even after the first three lol

    I also thought of bears, beets, and battlestar galactica and found out that no one else in my family knew the reference. 🤯

    I got perfect in Connections. I did green and then blue. Once it was down to 2 categories, I had to try the red herring. I couldn't leave it until last just in case they had actually done it. I had obviously seen it right away but couldn't submit it until guess 3. I had no idea what purple was doing but it didn't matter at that point.

    Solved Connections with one error. It was a 2.6 difficulty rating when I checked. Yellow was my last connection.
    I believe the people who do not play often probably did get the yellow right away.
    Lions, Bills, and Bears are NFL teams; Jays and Tigers are major league baseball teams.

    I got green and blue, but never heard of the rhyme so I didn’t consider putting those together. Funnily I also kept thinking of bye, bye, bye song and gimme gimme gimme song, but didn’t connect it with others to figure out the category. I know please, please, please by Sabrina carpenter, but never heard of the bills song

    I forgot that the Bengals aren't called the Tigers, and was sure there was a category of NFL teams. It was only after the leftover words weren't a category and locking in the teams didn't work either that I realized my mistake.

    I knew the purple almost right away except Bills and tried so hard to find it in the mix with blue 😢 almost had it!!!

  • @thorneto2742
    @thorneto2742 20 годин тому

    I didn’t lock it in right away assuming it was a red herring but I found the green and blue and then locked it in from there

    So happy for the Shuffle button, but more so that I do it each day and very often.... just had a gig recently drumming for Mamma Mia (Gimme Gimme Gimme) recently and it paid off!

    The day NYT metagamed us and made the yellow category purple because nobody believed they would ever straight up give you a category on line 1 :( I got it by luck

    The connections defeated me at the same point. I have only recently started connections and it feels either they are almost completely impossible or they fall out reasonably well 🤷‍♂️. Admittedly some of the American references get me being from NZ.

    "Today’s difficulty is 2.6 out of 5." they put the wrong link to the puzzle. puzzle people aren't good with links.

      It’s almost as if they gave us the first line yellow connection as a “gift”.
