Wordle revisited

[9A]

It helps to get certain letters early. I suspect John's fourth guess was "spicy" and the I-C-Y served him well. Meanwhile, I got S-W-I on my second try and was lucky to run out of likely words in my next three guesses. I appreciate the challenge, but it does seem unfair at times.

In today's catagories, I recognized all four catagories, but put the
wrong words in the final two. What can be appealing about connections
is the animated approval process. Also, very disappointing when it
doesn't happen.

This happens to me all the time. It tells me that I have one wrong answer and usually, I blow it by not knowing a slang reference that - unbeknownst to me - belongs in the category when another one actually sounded like a better answer.
