samee the best thing about connections for me today was that I got them all under a minute. Although I couldn't figure out the blue category.. that one was just the four left. Thought cylindrical but then again ticket didn't seem like it fit there.
Wordle in 4 for me as well. I went orate, chose clove, clone. When they pick Irate for the solution, and I get my 1, that will be a glorious day. I actually got Purple first in connections which made me feel smart.
The non-theme words keep going into the hint bank even if it's fully charged. You could find like 18 nontheme words in a row without using a hint, and then use 6 hints consecutively (although you do have to find the hint word before you can use another hint).
Blue category has been harder than purple category last few days im ngl, lucky the other three categories were easy today or else I definitely wouldn't have got the blue one lmao
Good job today!! You should give yourself full credit for the yellow Connections category that you "overthought." 😊 Those sins on Strands are more commonly known as the "Seven Deadly Sins," so it took me a while to see the "Cardinal," which is a less common designator. Like you, I solved it without using the hints. "Cluster" was an awesome guess!! Strands #4 “Don’t do it!” 🔵🔵🔵🔵 🔵🔵🔵🟡
Got wordle in 3 today: Slide, glare, clone ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩 ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Wordle Bot said clone was a bad geuss. Lol. Silly wordlebot. But then again, I thought getting it in 3 was good but wordlebot got it in 2! (It had a much better opening geuss) Damn! Lol I got the blue connections today!! I can't believe it! Blue has been so awful lately. I honestly don't even know how I saw it. I got yellow and green in order and then stated at the rest for like 10 minutes. Then I randomly thought of stub your toe, probably because I'm clumsy. Lol. And I was like, "Oh, ticket stub... " but it still took me another minute to figure out that cigarette and pencil could be stubs too. Lol. Then like 10 seconds after I put in blue, I saw dream. This was the perfect difficulty level in connections for me. It was challenging, but not impossible, or so esoteric that who's even heard of that. Comparing the crossword clues to riddles to soooo accurate! Lol. I personally dislike all the references that are extremely specific (how many far side comics fans are really out there these days) or way too general (like there's only one kind of German car??) so that you can't really answer without getting some of the other "riddles" first. For record, I, for one, am not the more interested in strands than the other games. It IS enjoyable to watch you play something new, but I'm still mostly coming for connections. Also, I just like doing the games myself and then seeing how you (and others) did with it. It helps to challenge and exercise my brain and give me a little dopamine and pride boost when I do well, but that second part of seeing how others also fared brings a sense of community to it. Also, when your struggling and feeling like a word, category or riddle or whole game was really hard on a specific day and other people have the same experience, it can be really validating. I also play letter boxed sometimes, but honestly, I like the other three better and when they release the previous days "most efficient solve" it pretty much always irritates me. So I'm not nessecarily saying I recommend it. Lol.
I managed to get the purple category first in Connections today, it just stood out for some reason
samee

Same. I just saw Lucid and thought dream and just continued that train of thought

Well done Kenny getting the dreams , we don't think much about the American dream over here !
I actually got wordle in 3 today after my standard RATIO CLUES opening, and I was able to get all the Connections even guessing all of the categories
Today was very easy for I was so glad. Got all 4 done in under 15 minutes

I got purple category first, then green, then yellow, and then blue by process of elimination
I'm becoming a Strands fan. Turning my back on Connections, lmao
On the mini i couldn't get wario or vws because i thought it was bmw and the m went with mario.

Who knew Kenny was an expert on sin? Didn't have him down as a shady character at all !

Don’t do CLUSTERs!
I’d never heard of pipe dream before 😢
Pipe dream is wishing for something that can't possibly happen
