I had this until I fat-fingered my scary leftovers. Messed up blue vs. green anyway.

Whereas I thought it was ruled out from being the red herring, for that reason. I got yellow right away, and there’s still a category with four items, hence, it can’t be the red herring.

Except it was.

It’s Saturday. Didn’t figure out Purple, and Green had too many options to not be just guessing which four.

Good news: no mistakes after a couple of bad days. Bad news: back to the old yellow/green mixup.

Complete failure. Got caught up in too many yellow options and would never have gotten purple.

I think I got yellow and green easily because i saw the specifics of the connections so there weren’t actually too many choices.
Purple, on the other hand...talk about out-of-date language. Who still uses nerd that way?

4733

Both yellow AND green had too many options, and I used up all of my guesses between them.

And to answer @MrDibble 's spoiler, we do.

Almost went for the red herring but luckily did not see a fourth answer. Only saw blue when everything else was gone. Still better than yesterday.

Easy-peasy. Especially because I got PURPLE immediately(DOUBLESPEAK didn’t match anything else thematically so I knew that one had to be wordplay and from there it was easy)

Is this Reverse Rainbow? I was trying to get them in the order of difficulty, with wordplay at #1. All four were very obvious to me. Spent more time deciding the order than finding the groups.
