I found this one easier than usual, got it with one life lost.
Having said that, I wouldn't have got the final (purple) row if it hadn't solved itself!

Yes as reported I got Yellow and Green straight off then lost 4 lives fixated on the Purples
I thought that there must be a suffix and thought Mar lin saw Mer lin then spotted Ear and thought Lin ear and looked at the other words adding Lin to front or back. I settled on Pop Lin sure that that was a material they made shirts from so that was a banker too
But I tried 4 times and failed each time and remembering it's US game failed using Sat Lin and Lin Sat
F****** hell was I kicking myself when I saw the answer

Funny how our brains work. I got the purple group first. MER got it for me, no such English word (or one I've heard of)

Downed after getting Green Row without loss
Kicking myself yet again after getting one away 4 times in Yellow and Light Blue categories
But ffs not getting the Yellow was criminal

And the other 4, no chance of getting that.

At least you got the Yellows. I even got that wrong and imagine having F H and K right and adding Trampoline
Wtf was that ?

Yesterday now.
Can't believed I had Frog Hare Kangaroo and didn't spot Cricket so I didn't even get Yellows even trying Trampoline
Today an exact opposite of that
Won ... Lost no lives
An upside down logic defying win as I got Purple ( nominally hardest ) first AND Yellows ( nominally easiest ) last

Victory for a change but i got Green Blue Purple and fortunately the Yellow was a gimmee.
I will be googling the last word of the yellow group to see what it means. Probably a word the kids use lol.
EDIT It is slang and used by kids (and cool adults I guess) with a meaning that allows it into the Yellow group.

Same as you today Wolfie.
Got the purple group first then the rest came easily. No lives lost.
Still would like to know how Breaking is an Olympic sport.

Ditto ... almost anyway.
Got the Yellows "easily"
I lost a life getting the Greens
Then could see the blues ok
That left the Purples and I did try to find a connection before selecting them
Wouldn't have got that any time soon (if ever)

Got the yellow then failed.
Got 3 of the green group a couple of times but ultimately failed.
2 of the purple group I've never heard of.

Got Blues first
Mixed the Greens and Yellows up 3 times ( similar but not same)
Had a go at Purples as I spotted a connection for 3 and opted for one I hadn't heard of over one I hadn't heard of
The latter would have been right but "cooked"

Solved it with a complete fluke.
Got the green and yellows after
a lot of jiggery pokery, losing 3 lives in the process.
After more muddled thought I decided the blue could be something to do with horses so eventually pressed submit and, blow me sideways it was right, er for the wrong reason.
As for the purple 2 were obvious, 2 were impossible.
Anyway as Wolfie says, a wins a win!

Do 2 or more different people set these I wonder
Today after yesterday's debacle ....
A 2 minute no lives lost win , and I got Purple third AND for a change I knew the connection for the last 4 words as well
If there are 2 people setting them I hope other one is on his holidays for a while

Dismal failure, lots of 1 away attempts, but I rushed it today.
I think all 4 groups are eminently guessable with a bit of concentration.

Blew first attempt (1 away) so tried a different 4
As Mug said ... they are connected and I got home without losing another life
That left me with 3 words I had right in guess 1 and one I would never have put with them and of course that completed the 4
Streak 2

Won without loss
Yellow
Green
Then 8 left which seemed unrelated but as I got a Tea "ding" got the Blues
I did as usual try to decide what connected the Purples but failed ( and maybe I should have got it )
I predict a clean sweep on here today
Streak 3 ( I have to keep count as App doesn't )

Won without loss but fluked it.
G,Y,B and P by default.
I think Wolfie is very brave to suggest a clean sweep as I had only gut feeling to get the blue and no idea what linked the purples.

Same here got yellow and green in 10 seconds.
Then lost 3 lives with the swimming animal but fluked it on last guess.

I was "boosted" by going back to your comment the other day , when I crashed and burnt and you said " I looked at MER and thought , that's not a word"
So I was drawn to the shortest of the Animal words , and as I made a Tea I thought of it and bang . I've seen one in fact
Then I thought ah , and listed in my head the other 3. Still then struggled with Purple though
"Fluked no pun intended"
