Bloody hell yellow & green made me fight for this today

Theydontknowaboutus · 08/09/2024 12:32

Has anyone seen the Connections bot which analyses your gameplay? For today, it told me that 1 in 52000 players played the same guesses as me - surprising!

@Britinme you and me both - according to the bot, less than 1% of people playing fell for that very specific red herring!
