Yes, it’s not easy trying to second guess and it’s made worse when there are several options that would fit to give the solution.

I am OK with Wordle, but connections is much harder as brain is still in training mode.

Also, I am not convinced about the degree of difficulty as I find green (easy) harder than purple (hardest) on some occasions. Today I got the hardest first and it didn’t even take me long.

I think the degree of difficulty can be subjective based on our own interests or knowledge areas. Sometimes i just have an epilhany moment & suddenly happen on the connection then find the 1st 3 but have to guess the 4th word. Other times it’s a bit of trial and error or I see a different connection.

I don’t mind if i don’t get them as every day I am learning things.

I wonder if all is ok with Wendy @Bagrat

It was trying to eliminate the β€œwrong” cats that got me. The White Russian was the problem, but it worked out in the end :slight_smile:

Just sent another note to W. I think I’ll just wait to hear from her - I guess she’ll come back when she’s ready.
:pray:

I was the same. Too many cats- i even convinced myself the Cheshire Cat was a real cat in the end :rofl::rofl:

Yes I think we should wait to hear from Wendy. We don’t want her to think we are hounding her.

A little tricky today. Some lucky guesses but they all count :grin:

Had weird start with Connections, but then it was fairly straightforward with the songwriters default (I would not have got that as I was not even looking for musicians, but they do seem to crop up !)
