Yellow Group right here used a phrase I believed may be a tennis clue, RACKET, as I believed perhaps you would mix that with BUCKET for balls you had been hitting. This one was robust as a result of I don’t affiliate a STING with being a con, although I suppose that’s technically type of a police-based con. Type of an odd classifcaiton although.
Inexperienced Group beings the trickery that we thought there was going to be LAUNDRY collection of clues, as you may each BEAT and FOLD for various levels of the cleansing course of. FOLD might be the toughest phrase on that checklist, however I hold considering of the episode of Schitt’s Creek the place they discuss “folding within the cheese.”
I believed Blue Group may be the toughest right this moment. These are type of all love-based, minus ITCH, as I imply, does anybody ever say I “ITCH” for you? I don’t suppose so. BURN and PINE may have been forrest fireplace associated, however I see how they pair collectively right here now. That was robust.
Purple Group is in fact additionally fairly troublesome. I believe TO-DO was an enormous clue by way of attending to the checklist characterization, however as soon as once more, LAUNDRY was there attempting to journey us up with different phrases. BUCKET checklist and SHORT checklist make a variety of sense, clearly, so these weren’t as troublesome to put right here.
How did you do right this moment? More durable or simpler this time?
