Connections today

[mugnapper]

Bit more thought-provoking today. No lives lost, YPGB.
Streak of 12.

[Donnywolf]

Lost a life and took some time

Went for the trap and lost life straight off
Y
P knew 3 and went for a likely third and would have stuck with it
G
B not sure I would have got that. I had an idea but it wasn't exactly that

No matter 8 , acht , ocho , Broadbent

Sorry to much info again

[mugnapper]

Straightforward again for me. No lives lost, YGBP.
Didn't spot the P but didn't spend time thinking about it.

[tommy toes]

Easy, just a matter of which group to put in first.

So you "dived" in eh ?

Telling we all got left with B. Come on TfE buck the trend

[mugnapper]

Straight through again. No losses. YGPB.
I don't want to question my own genius, but has it been easier the past month or 2?
Or are we just getting used to the types of Connections?

B knew what 3 of em were. Lost 3 lives getting the other.
P noooooo!

[Donnywolf]

Y
G
Stuck.
Idea of 3 for B but having a rest ! Sometimes works

[mugnapper]

A lot tougher today. Lost 3 lives chasing the Blue but got it on the last guess.
GYBP.

[mugnapper]

EDIT. Just seen your comments and we all had trouble with that pesky B.
I was certain one of the P's was in that group, but no.

[Donnywolf]

Well my tactic worked. I came back and decided on the 3 I thought were the Blues.

I looked for most likely and boom Purple

I looked at the B answer and wouldn't have got it Id and Charm ok but other 2 especially 1 in particular I'd never heard of

So a heady 1 more than I declared yesterday as I can't remember lol

[Donnywolf]

It was , still is 12. Today's DOD a low 20 but deja vu

G
Y
No further idea
Shut up shop till I've been out

[mugnapper]

Yes. To my mind, the P is ungettable.
YGBP.
Lost a life getting the G.
Tough today.

[tommy toes]

Done in no time, no lives lost. Understood the purple when it emerged.

[Donnywolf]

Is emerged a clue ? Asking for a friend

[tommy toes]

Have you got it yet Wolfie?

Not emerged no.
Open your front door.

[Donnywolf]

Ha .. yes just been back half hour or so. Tablet opened where I left it so I thought just go for the only 3 that seemed vaguely connected

I thought too simple but picked a 4th and was happy to lose a life because 3 were right. Next guess I only had one candidate and yes it was right

1@B ***
B
P wtf again ?

Then I came on to report in and saw your post and grinned .

*** Here's a grin for you in return. My one away B failed but with the 4th word being Pipe I can see why

Hi Mug and TFE

Have your surnames ( not phishing ) appeared in Connections yet

Mines in today and seen TTs a couple of times

From your Post 2140 above , statistically I think the DOD has been lower for a few weeks

I always put fwiw as the Panel I'm guessing benefit from it being USA centric so they mop up Connections that I don't see. For instance words like faucet which we all know of of course but many others and particularly slang or " younger element" words

However personally sometimes I can skate, sail, sweep or sashay through an 80 DOD while struggling massively , even failing often on puzzles when the Stats are way down l-o-w

I guess I haven't answered your question in any way but what I can say is I can get hopelessly lost sometimes though I havent surrendered without trying lately , but I have often permed when I have had no clue especially lately

Yesterday I shared a joke with TT though it was factual #2153 above

I was stuck but fancied 3 of the 8 remaining ones to be Connected by being about Hallway . Looking for a 4th I picked Pipe as in to a Radiator which was wrong lol

I thought it then had to be Console but is that referring to an Alarm System. I didn't know but thankfully right

[mugnapper]

Bit of a fluke. Lost one life then YGPB.
Spotted 3 of the P and of the 5 words left, only 1 looked like a possible fit. And it was.
I shall now Google that word and report back.
Googled it. No better off lol.

[mugnapper]

The 'Console' referred to yesterday was console table. A small table to put your car keys on, when you come through the door.
You're obviously not watching enough 'Salvage Hunters' lol.
My surname would only feature if they did a 'British astronauts' connection and there needs to be a few more for that to happen.

[Donnywolf]

Cheers

Every day a School day , so proved my theory as I got B yesterday in a fluke. Never heard of Console Table

Haven't watched Salvage Hunters but have watched Crimewatch and lots of other progs warning people not to leave Keys visible in Hallways though lol

Keys fished off table ? Keys literally fished off Radiators or easy to grab in a (is it Bangkok ) Robbery.

I still think Pipe was viable lol at least with Wordle the answer is definitive not subjective lol
