I dithered on one of two possible choices to fill out the yellow -- with my luck, I knew whichever I chose I would be wrong! Sure enough.

Re: NYT Connections
Purple seemed like the most obvious one for me today... Well besides the trap I fell for on the first guess.

Never would have guessed the purple, although they've used similar rationale for groups before, so something to remember!

Re: NYT Connections
I crashed and burned after getting yellow and then green. Just not my day. Probably should have gotten it based on the revealed answers. Definitely one that got away. None of them were categories I didnβt know anything about like they occasionally are.

Re: NYT Connections
I had the right category in my mind for green and blue but was only sure on 3 of the 4 for both of them

Re: NYT Connections
Nope, just nope! Got the yellow, should have had the greens, but never heard of one of them. Blue and purple only made sense after seeing the solve, would not have guessed either.

I had a long wait with no inspirations after the yellow row, almost gave up, but came here and saw the two solves above me and decided to try a little harder.

Re: NYT Connections
Nothing was coming to mind at all today. Purple was blind luck, green I had a wrong connection in mind. I guess I'll take luck today.
