Sigh. The clue said “row 4” but i thought it was about row 5.

Sigh. The clue said “row 4” but i thought it was about row 5.
I had multiple mistakes, too, mostly related to bad counting.
Sometimes it’s nice to have an easy one…

Sigh. I read “… in my row” about one of the row two clues. It actually said “my … in row three”. Dyslexia for the win.
And apparently, “All of the criminals in column 4 are connected” does not imply “there are two or more criminals in column 4”. Or at least, when I made a deduction based on that, it told me it was premature.
Criminals are connected absolutely does mean “there are at least 2 criminals”. If you’ve found a situation where you think that information should be sufficient and you were refused then there was an error.
No, the rules clearly say that a “group” of one person counts as being “connected” to itself.
Sometimes I (as the poker players say) go on tilt after a bad guess. Sharing my shame.

I did a little better, but only a little.
It was nice to start a new week, and get an easy one.

I forgot to say yesterday, but i was stuck, and after the two wrong guesses, i made a third guess that was correct. After that it was easy enough. But i didn’t really solve that one.

I grayed out a clue too early, and then was stuck at the end until i reread all the clues i thought I’d completed.

One of the ones i got “right” was wrong, i was counting people around the wrong cell. That led to a wing guess that was really wrong on the next click. But the other yellow square was from pressing the wrong button when i had the right thought. So the overall score is correct, but for the wrong reasons. ![]()

Shockingly easy Friday puzzle. Top 5%, which I think is my first time getting that.
You did a lot better than i did. ![]()

Sometimes errors snowball because I stop caring after the perfect game is ruined, but the Zara clue was really throwing me. I was actually writing a message complaining about how it was impossible when I figured it out; obvious in hindsight.
Your lips to god’s ear on that one. I get pissed and think “well, I was off by one” and start shifting my answers, when in fact the answers are always there.
I did make a pretty row of yellow. (or is that orange?)
