"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."
~ Coach Tom Coughlin

Either we're getting better at this or they stopped with the obscure connections.

Agree. May be a combo of the two. Easier puzzles recently, and people are just developing the skillset.

Maybe I missed it, but I don't recall anyone getting all 4 groups in the same order. I like the randomness. Are we the only three playing this?

I am still playing all three puzzles, but I am too lazy to be posting my results.  I had a perfect score today with blue > yellow > green > purple

I hold back if there is a word or two that can go two ways. Like today, Bag and pack.

KABOOM!

Man, this was humbling. I knew multiple categories but just kept falling for the traps. I don't think I have every not gotten a single column. Super frustrating as multiple categories were very clear. Nice job by whoever made this puzzle today. They got me good.
