This particular puzzle I got the purple last because they were just the remaining leftovers. I've read on NYT about a point-system of this "hard mode" in which the highest score is achieved by finding the answers in the exact opposite order of difficulty, so purple blue green yellow. It's so challenging to hold all those answers in mind before pressing go on what you assume to be purple!! Hard mode indeed. Great brain workout though, appreciate seeing the struggle

C-clef is a thing! It's what instruments like the viola uses and it tells you where middle C is,as opposed to treble (sometimes called G-clef because the loop goes around the G line) and bass clef (aka F-clef because the two dots are above and below the F line). C clef can move up and down the staff depending on the instrument. the most common c-clef is alto clef (which viola uses) but there's a bunch of different ones for various ranges.

One thing that makes it a tiny bit easier is, once you think you have a category identified, select all of them and then mash "shuffle" until they land in easier-to-ignore groups in the outside edges. The remaining groups become a little bit easier to juggle in your head that way.

C-celf, also known as alto clef, is used mainly for viola and has the middle line as the note C. (Its the one that looks like a fancy bracket) Bass clef, the one that looks like a backwards C with two dots, is the F-clef. Bass clef originally looked like a fancy F, but then slowly over the years became the bass clef we know today. The two dots in the bass clef are on either side on the line that represents the note F. If you’re wondering what the treble clef is, it’s G-clef, because the spiral goes around the 2nd line, which is the note G.

I want to thank you for this. I thought Connections was interesting, but it wasn't fun for me before. The way that the game normally works, where you can guess to reduce the options, makes the game easier as you solve it and verify your guesses. But, by introducing the hardmode rules, suddenly the game became much more interesting and engaging. I didn't play before, because it wasn't engaging enough, but now I play every day with modified rules. A hardmode-extra, maybe? No notes, everything in your head. Must identify all four categories before submitting anything. (As long as you have the four sets of four identified, it's fine, you don't necessarily have to have figured out what the name of the category is). The goal is to solve it in reverse order > Purple, Blue, Green, Yellow. The closer you get to that, the better you've done. I personally find purple and blue to be the ones I care most about, but it's interesting to try and suss out what they'd have ranked them. Doing the game this way has been much more fun & engaging for me, and I like to think that it's been a much better brain stimulator as well. Thanks again for this wonderful idea!
@cbunn815 ай бұрын
A friend of mine invented a similar "hard mode" a while back. There are two levels to this version. They both require no mistakes. The first level is to guess each group sequentially from easiest to hardest (i.e. yellow > green > blue > purple). The second level is to do the reverse. It might seem very difficult, but if you play Connections enough, you get a good feel for what they consider more difficult. As Hank said, it's usually some kind of word play or substring commonality. I can usually get all four groups with no mistakes, but guessing the correct order of groups is more of a 50/50 chance for me so far. Also, if you enjoy Connections, you should check out BBC's Only Connect. It's a game show based on these kind of connections, though it's often more than one word in each clue. And the final round would be a very familiar-looking board. I think it's fair to say that whoever created Connections was influenced by Only Connect.

When I first saw the title, I thought that this was the last thing I needed. I lose this game enough without making it harder for myself. However, there is definitely merit to the strategy of working ahead and making several guess sets before actually making a guess. In the case of this puzzle I immediately connected Clef, Section, Suite, and BRIDGE as elements of an orchestra, and Deck, Hatch, Keel, and NET as boat related. Given my normal play style, I would have likely gotten frustrated and lost the game trying as my guesses went more wild. Going to today's game, I waited to see how every word could connect into a set before guessing, and I got a perfect hard mode score. (I did cheat and write them down though, so maybe my style is medium mode)

I distinctly remember this being one of the harder ones for me, especially the wizard one, so to see Hank get that one "obviously" and then not think it was the hardest catehory was astounding to me 😂😂

Hank this is like baby's first hard mode. Hard mode is getting them in exactly reverse order with no misses - purple, blue, green, yellow.

C-clef is a thing. Treble clef is a g-clef, because it's defined by putting the note G at the widest point of the clef. Bass clef is an F clef, defined by F being between the two dots. The lesser-used alto and tenor clefs are both c-clefs, defined by where middle-c goes relative to the symbol.

Treble clef is G clef, bass clef is F clef; alto and tenor clefs are C clefs. Alto clef is used by viola, and tenor clef is used by bassoon and I think sometimes cello.
