Blue was default and purple was just me noticing the trend in its words as opposed to actually knowing it.

Purple by default but probably would have gotten it if I put my mind to it….but I didn’t feel like it.

Never seen purple this easy and blue took me way longer than it should have.  At first I assumed it was a red herring it was too easy

I call bullshit…..I had a nice streak for me and after 1 miss I had 3 of blue and I knew the category but did not know the 4th….it did NOT say I was one away. I would’ve gotten it next and yellow by default with 2 misses left. 


I hate this game
