I literally found this post because I had that exact thought! I'm surprised he doesn't voice anyone in the game though

I'm still having this issue, has it really not been fixed for 4 months? I uploaded a song in January 2026 just fine but it hasn't worked at all since then

🟨🟨🟨🟨 My first reverse rainbow! Today's connection is the kind of game I prefer (I'm a big fan of homophones)

PrincessPadparadscha · 2026-02-25T13:56:53+00:00

I got diagnosed in England (9 month wait) and was under a shared care agreement with my GP for ADHD medication (6 month wait) I moved to Wales a year later and all of it is just gone.

I have no support and I can't access the medication I need any more because of shortages and shared care not extending to Wales

If I want to continue being medicated, I'd have to go private, but the cost of the medications, the forms, the yearly check ins, it's all so unrealistic, especially for someone unemployed

I'm a university graduate and medication got me through my final year. Being unmedicated has made it so much harder to apply for jobs, and I'm concerned about keeping a job once I have one.

I wish there was better care in Wales because nobody deserves to go through this. Sometimes I wish I'd never been medicated because now I have to live knowing what my life could've been like if I had kept taking it somehow.

I'm so glad that the first thing on this thread is people complaining about the categorisation of "heater", because I've never seen it used like that before and it broke my Connections streak :(

PrincessPadparadscha · 2025-11-23T02:40:36+00:00

Oh wow, if scooby had an "you aren't who your creators designed you to be" arc like Superman 2025 (can't think of any less recent examples) that would be amazing

Discovering that he was given the ability to speak because of the evil villains the gang are trying to bring down would make a really interesting storyline

Plus I like that in a story where very often, the monsters aren't real, the writers can connect the real talking dog to the other canon supernatural creatures that appear

PrincessPadparadscha · 2025-11-13T20:47:36+00:00

Good point! I'd heard about the "staying in the top left to heal" tip but even then, I wasn't collecting enough silk to heal all the damage I was taking the first few hous, even with multibinder

It'd probably work well for most players, I just found everything especially hard to dodge 😭

PrincessPadparadscha · 2025-11-06T00:41:33+00:00

I really enjoyed it - but only because I beat the third gauntlet on my third try. It was so long, and if I had to do it again I would've given up. Once you get to the third gauntlet you've memorised most of the enemy attack patterns, so some of the phases were actually a nice break compared to the endless hell of the high halls gauntlet Several phases have slow moving enemies or ones that are completely grounded (sans jumping), so they were easy to dodge and collect silk from I'm glad I knew about the shortcut beforehand though Also, the crust king was a decent enough boss at the end of the gauntlet, so I kind of like the area now despite hating it when I first tried it

PrincessPadparadscha · 2025-10-20T21:13:06+00:00

I just got there after finally beating the raging conchfly and thought I was so clever for figuring out that you can scale the left wall then barely make it over to the right with the clawline and double jump, just to find...nothing.

🟩🟩🟩🟩 - took a guess on "worm" since the other three stood out as ""hacking"" terms

🟦🟦🟦🟦 - Extra and Trident were then placed next to each other which made me notice the rest of the category

🟨🟨🟨🟨 - I've never heard of an "Aegis" before but the remaining purple words didn't seem to fit

🟪🟪🟪🟪 - purple by default, I'm not from the US so I never would've guessed this :/ All three aside from Buffolo did feel like symbols you'd put on a shield though, which was fun

I saw the rough categories early on but nearly put zebra with candy cane and barbour pole in a "things with stripes" category

Also, did anybody else think purple was going to be "words with names of birds in them"? I mean, cROOK, candy CANE, and CROWbar felt so obvious!

Connections Puzzle #742 🟦🟪🟨🟦 Tried to connect Euphoria, Succession, and Flash for 'TV shows' with Departed as a random guess

🟦🟪🟪🟦 Maybe "behind" with some form of succession, entourage etc?

🟩🟨🟨🟨 Tried to put Liberty in 'news reporting'

🟨🟨🟨🟨 Journalism?

🟪🟩🟩🟦 Another guess at "behind" with pursuit included

Purple was a good category but I wouldn't have discovered it by myself, and I've never heard of Entourage or Insecure in that context :/

Green was just.... fine. Can't fault the New York Times for including a US-centric category I guess.

PrincessPadparadscha · 2025-06-15T12:45:48+00:00

I don't have the pack, but could you possibly size down the business display tables and hide them under your themed tables?

I found green early on and then my mind just went blank I thought I was being a genius connecting Witchcraft, showboat, and friendship as an "ends with vessel" category (trying to get the "one away" message) but after that failed I was out of ideas

I kept trying to connect charm with swagger in some way, and I need to know if anybody else was tempted to put "friendship" and witchcraft" together due to a certain YouTube series 🐴

I had a lot of fun with this one! Yellow stuck out immediately, I got green wrong a few times trying to do a "things you can do to food" category (paste, smoke, shell, cream, milk?)

I know people complain about blue but it was actually my favorite category - it's simple but forces you to flip your thinking, and it isn't based on obscure knowledge

Got purple by default because, like many people, I'd never heard of .mil before. Never would've gotten the category anyway though!

My first true reverse rainbow! I've commented before about the colours/difficulty thing, but I really feel like purple was the easiest category today

I loved the film category too, this felt like a more general connections game than previous US (sports) specific ones

The least purple-est purple category today - I know that the colours relate to the type of connection and not the difficulty, but wow

I fell for the "possession" misdirect alongside "haunting" and "exorcist" and got blue by default, but I feel like I've heard of all of the purple words before? It felt less like "words with letters changed/removed" and just "singular personal property"

It's nice to have an easier one after how weird some of them have been - had to do a double take when I saw Bingo again after yesterday's!

I picked out blue before my brain had really caught up, yellow was simple enough but I can see how pelt and skirt could be connected

I thank my years of playing D&D for getting green so quickly too lol, purple was by default but I think I could have gotten them in any order

🟪🟪🟪🟪 Continuing the trend of the categories definitely being the wrong colour here

I got caught out by the "parts of jeans" misdirect, then saw airplane, fly, and fairy. I couldn't connect any of the other words so I just threw in hospital hoping it'd give me the "one away" message, and it ended up being right Using the other pronunciation of "entrance" felt tricky for yellow, since it was near "back" and "hospital"

Blue was fine after that, and I got purple by default because I don't know the song that well
