As the puzzle said, 'Phew'. Last chance saloon, using all lives but got it.
YGPB.
When I got to the last 8, I looked fir 5 mins without inspiration then, BANG, both P and B leapt out at me.

2+2
B
P no idea on this one

Donnywolf · « **Reply #814 on** August 22, 2024, 07:29:37 am by Donnywolf »

Back to nil. Another wtf despite several shuffles

Then got Y
B

More shuffles but got inspiration as 3 of the 8 had a Connection (to me). So I persisted and lost 4 to what turned out to be Green.

I didn't notice the American spelling of one which was crucial

P was a complete mystery ( as was Green too it could be argued )

Back to 0

I read this article from a Connections fan who said he always reads them aloud first.
It don’t half help with those homophones Wolfe.

mugnapper · « **Reply #821 on** August 23, 2024, 08:32:26 am by mugnapper »

If you didn't like homophones would you be a homophonephobic?

Yes , my first action is " the Mug Shuffle"

My second should become " the Head read aloud".

I misread you earlier post and was looking for homophones. The one beginning with a B I was earmarking for the Green category ... possibly with US spelling

When I saw the answers P was there to be got and again well spotted

I haven't come across one yet as I do the Archives , and about 100 done , 15 ignored for now so I will check them out next

I'm half way through this. Only snag is you can't lose unless you lose 4 lives then move on

Pleased to get it.
Lost 2 lives getting the Y.
5 mins pondering then G.
Lots of shuffling before a light bulb moment to get B.
Didn't spot, the P Connection.
Yesterday's hungover me would have lost patience and lost in quick time.
