Reverse rainbow. I got purple and blue before green and yellow since STONER could have fit either category.

Kept putting business in with vocations. Finally had to pivot and look at another group.

Well…at least I solved in time.

Did that the once.

Me too, one time, before I figured it out.

Didn’t see Purple at all. Might never have seen it.

Got hit with the red herring and had some troubles but muddled through.

What was the red herring?

It was _____ card. Or at least, that was the red herring I caught. Annoyingly, there were five words that fit it, so I got caught even after I had one of the categories done.

I’ve missed a few days returned today for a fairly straightforward one. Tried for reverse rainbow but missed.

Same on both counts. I also put calling with the citations. Then i saw a much better choice that i just didn’t see the first time through.

Got purple first, and it was a typical purple category. Of the remainders I mad my usual mistake of assuming the last one I got was the hardest, hence no reverse rainbow.

It’s Sunday where I live. A word I didn’t know meant I had to guess, but I got lucky.

It was the type of purple I usually don’t get, or at least not right away, so I surprised myself by getting it first. (It was VILLAGER that got me started.)

Then I tried for the reverse rainbow and failed miserably.

Pretty lucky to avoid disaster today. First was going for water (Perrier, spring, still, static) but didn’t like the last one. Then went for _up with ratchet, spring and gear. Never heard of Pawl but the other four were clearly wrong so I guessed it and lucked into blue. Didn’t get purple.

Noooo. I had everything sorted and then misclicked going too fast.

No problems, I did know what a pawl is. And soxer was clearly a made-up word.

Didn’t get purple. But the others were pretty straightforward once i realized there were only 3 waters.

Yay, I actually figured out purple before I clicked it! I just might be getting the hang of this!

Not much to say about this one. Medium difficulty for me. Didn’t start down any wrong roads, and figured out purple after a minute or so.
