Connections, C&V style
 
Do you play the free NYT Wordle and Connections every morning like me? If not, you may be better off. But if you do, you might like this C&V version of Connections:

Play here: April 8 C&V Connections.

Today's puzzle looks like this:

:thumb: You're choosing four groups of four. The NYT Connections provides hints that show you one term in each group. Usually, the yellow group is easiest, and purple, the most difficult. I'll provide one word for each group below:

Clever! I played both and am impressed. Also chuckled at the “swellgarfo” domain.

Love it love it love it. I hope you do more!

The blue and green killed me! That was quite a red herring!

I'd like to create a few more puzzles and include some of our member names. Or maybe one of you would like to give it a shot. It's actually more fun creating these puzzles than solving the daily NYT game. :lol:


Since I didn't include it above, here are the tips for the first puzzle:

I don't get it. How are these four words connected?

If you need a hint for the puzzle's solution, open the spoiler to see one word in each of the four colored groups. Now that you have one hint, you're looking for the other three words that are connected to it. Usually, the yellow category is easiest, purple the most difficult.

Being able to move the tiles is a big help for me, first one I solved, still took way too many tries.

Agreed, I know the words, not so much their "connections" I solved one puzzle, but that must have been a fluke, not even getting started on the last two. Even with a little google search cheating!

That was my best yet, got it out in seven.

Well, I suck at the NYT version and the C&V as well.
I appreciate the effort on your part.
Thanks

Yes it was. 6 guesses for me and only the second one I solved. Funny/Interesting to me is I felt like I was less familiar with these "words" but did better with their connections? Maybe less red herring effect that way?

Seconding bironi post, appreciate your efforts and your ability to create these
