Yellow and green were easy. Almost got knocked out by blue, but finally figured out purple. Got blue then by default. “Marple” was killing me.

Amazed how easy blue was. Purple by default and would have never gotten two of them.

Another fail.  Clearly you can't just slap together the first 4 words that make sense

Easy, should have never missed the one. If I cared to figure it out I could have gone the perfect backwards (purple, blue, green, yellow).
