Finally, after two days of failure.

Also a pretty cool shout out on the initial first row.

I did not get the purples but I did guess correctly between elements and letter sounds for the blues.

yellow
green

Got purples right away, took a chance on blues, got stuck on BUGBEAR (for the second time! This time it had a completely different meaning!) and had no idea what a LYRE is (an instrument maybe, or am I thinking of a lute?). Rough one overall.

Blues were a complete guess. I just couldn't see how any of them could fit with anything else. I saw the yellows before the blues, but I wasn't confident in them. I only realized the greens right before I submitted.

I didnt see the fake group until after I got the greens and yellows. Also funny that the fake group itself fits the purples.

Avoided yellows at first because they seemed so obvious that I thought they were a trap.

Fell for the Smash Bros. trap. And I figured out blues as I was clicking them by default.

I thought both the cards and basketball teams might be traps. I also kept looking at does as the plural of female deer, and almost did an animal category instead of basketball, but then I realized what the greens were and swapped.

Oh yeesh, that was crazy. My mistake was putting fire in with water/electric/gas before seeing telephone, thinking they were just town-based departments. Then I got blues COMPLETELY BY ACCIDENT selecting prominent figures/themes in the Bible.

I initially grouped the blues together because of that too. Afterwards, I saw ants and figured that made more sense.

green

Two things:

One, I can't believe I actually knew a sports category.

Two, isn't it a "to go bag"? That's why I didn't guess it initially. And I thought a ball bag was a thing.

Purples were actually the first category I started to see, but couldn't piece it together beyond doggy and mixed.

Different thing. A go bag is like an emergency supply kit that you can quickly grab in case you need to immediately evacuate.
