I agree. I don't think I've ever completed it faster than today's. It wasn't challenging at all which is kind of annoying.

I approached this very tentatively, as it seemed too straightforward. But turns out it was!

I didn't find it so easy - although I eventually got purple first when I realised I had got the connection wrong.

Fluke.
Neither blue or purple make sense to me.

Some of blue and purple are a bit dubious

Blue was strange. I knew 3 of them, and the remaining were all equally unlikely to be right, so on my second guess I was lucky!

CobraChicken · 10/02/2025 17:39

The fourth blue was total guesswork but I spotted the purple connection once they were all that was left.

I got the purple connection, and could see the link from 3 of the blues left but I don't understand that 4th blue.
