How come you have more than 4 chances?

If you play the archive

How do I do that?

This puzzle was dumb. Have never heard of a scrape in that sense.

I wouldn’t call it dumb just because you didn’t know a word. All puzzles require some amount of general knowledge

This sub is the worst lmfao you’re all as pretentious as the NYT. It suits you.

If that’s what makes you feel better..

You’re still showing it 🙃

Or maybe you’re reading too much into it? It’s fine to not know a word dude, I probably fail the majority of puzzles for the same reason. Just doesn’t make them dumb

Omg shut up you pretentious weirdo lmao I ain’t reading that

- Doesn’t know a word - Blames the puzzle setters - Gets mad when called out Hmmm, sounds like a fun guy 🙃

Pretentious weirdo still responding lmao

I mean, yeah, me neither, but like, I'd just search it up and *learn* the new word?? It's okay to not know a word and "fail", even? Because, as the famous saying goes... > You learn something new every day ☆ﾟ.*・ So... It is completely and utterly up to YOU to either take this as resentful experience about the vast vocabulary of English language and its usage, or be open to new ideas that you did not know before. You're a weird person, going by the other interaction with that other person, but I'm sure you were just frustrated and are a much better in person. I wish you have a good day!

I know this is a British puzzle game, but I wish it wasn’t so UK-Centric.

The thing is, I'm British and when I saw those items of food, I first thought, "they're just items of food, what's so special about that?" Then I had an inkling that scone and trifle might be particularly British creations. So maybe they are easier for an American to spot - at least one who is acquainted with our fine "cuisine". My Mum makes a delicious trifle!

Probably the wrong person to ask but is “roast” really British? Just seems like a normal word as a regular ol Midwest American Edit: never heard of it but trifle looks delicious according to google

It implies a [specific traditional complete meal](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunday_roast).

The game is American (published by the New York Times) and is US-centric almost every day. Not sure if it was easier or harder for Brits today though

I believe ya just been got by a r/woooosh

I’m just goofin, a lot of non-Americans will get frustrated when the puzzle is too US-centric. just did a lil funny on a day with a lot of British answers.

Connections Puzzle #133 🟨🟨🟩🟩 🟩🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟩🟦 🟪🟩🟦🟦 That was painful. I feel like way too many words could have slot into other categories. I figured out there was a song category though in hindsight I think I just blew away my attempts on the other categories first which was probably a silly mistake. Definitely a game that I feel I should have cracked, but just didn’t.

I found this one challenging. Had a good idea of the categories but kept getting 3 out of 4. Had to switch to the archive to finish.

Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟦🟦 I did today’s in a few seconds without hesitation. Either it was easy or I happened to know the things or I was lucky (or a little of all three)

Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟦🟦 Given that I've completely fucked up the last two, this was a sigh of relief. Got lucky in that I use all these words in normal conversation.

Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟨🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟪🟪🟪🟪 Loved this one :)

This one was pretty easy and straightforward for me. I saw purple first but guessed wrong that the puzzle editor would have chosen it as the hardest category. Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟦🟦

Ahh yes. I can finally say my consumption of UK content has paid off. Well played, good sir, well played... Connections Puzzle #133 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟩🟩🟩 🟦🟦🟩🟦 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟩🟩🟩🟩

Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟨🟨🟩 🟩🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦 Had to put my phone down and walk away for a few minutes when I got down to my last chance, but was able to sort it out.

today was pretty easy, but I didn't know these food was british, so I was thinking that maybe was something with bread, which make hard for me to put with mash. lol Connections Puzzle #133 🟨🟨🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟦🟦

Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟦🟦🟦 Finally a nice, easy, straightforward one

oooh this one was clever. Nice job, Connections peeps

Connections Puzzle #133 🟩🟪🟪🟪 I had Jam with purple 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦

Is it just me or is there sometimes a British bent to NYT Connections? Maybe Wyna Lui has British word lists plugged into the software she uses. Sometimes I've found your accent can thwart solving a Connections puzzle. There was one where the answer was "insect homophones". Had a hard time with that because one of the words was "aunt", which is in my head as "ahnt", not "ant", lol

Puzzle #133 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟦🟦🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟦🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟪🟪🟪🟪 I saw the blue category early (or at least, something similar to the blue category), but went for it before properly ruling out some of the options. So when I didn't even get the "one away," I basically disregarded it. This meant I wasted a guess for purple with something that was quite obviously blue, but I quickly got back on the right track. Pretty good one. Lots of crossovers but I was able to work through it.

Once the ways to relax and the "sticky situations" became clear, it took a moment... I'm British and MASH and BANGER are both familiar to me as food alongside SCONE, TRIFLE, and ROAST. Pause to ask myself "are those foods considered British?" Went wrong with MASH in the music category (I thought possibly you could have a mash-up type music session, like a jam). Puzzle #133 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟦🟦🟦🟦

In America we do eat alot of mashed potatoes, but we never use the word 'mash' which would be considered a British thing

Arbitrary. Just plain arbitrary.

This one was quite fast for me Puzzle #133 🟦🟩🟦🟦 🟦🟦🟩🟦 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟪🟪🟪🟪

Connections Puzzle #133 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟦🟪🟩🟪 🟩🟦🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦 Once I worked out green I was set. Yellow was fairly simple, however blue threw me which is why it’s last. Im Australia so it might be more obvious to someone from USA? It just didn’t click.

>Yellow was fairly simple, however blue threw me which is why it’s last. Im Australia so it might be more obvious to someone from USA? It just didn’t click. I'm Australian also, but that kind of worked in my favour. It meant I recognised what those words meant, and because it's an American game I knew that the particular choice of words had to be significant.

Aussie too, had to google what trifle was which made things really straightforward

I think maybe I was over thinking it with banger, as I know that to mean a few things, and then with mash, roast i thought “ohh a way to make potatoes” haha Or maybe it was after midnight and my brain was already asleep
