A rare Connections without any mistakes for me today, and a chance for lots
of players to get the purple group.

I used to own a TYPEWRITER when I was younger and would type out interviews and articles for my fanzine on it.

Over time, the ink ribbon wore out but rather than buy a new one which most sensible people would do I would write over the faded words with a black
pen.

It was ridiculous, but Id put together six 48-page magazines using this
method and then photocopy them. So really I should have got FONT-MODIFYING WORDS far quicker than just my third group.

I didnt, because memories of being LATE, ABSENT or EXCUSED still loom large
in my mind, as that was the story of my school days (and also the explanation for the many large gaps in my knowledge).

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
