What should you do once you've finished? Why, play some more word games of 
course. I've also got daily Wordle hints and answers , Strands hints and

The answers to today's Connections, game #465, are YELLOW: GATHERING SPOT 
OUTSIDE A RESIDENCE DECK, PORCH, STOOP, YARD GREEN: LOWDOWN DISH, DOPE, INFO, 
SCOOP BLUE: KINDS OF REELS BLOOPER, DEMO, HIGHLIGHT, SIZZLE PURPLE: CARTOON 
DOGS MINUS Y DROOP, GOOF, LAD, SNOOP My rating: Easy My score: 1 mistake 

Something-minus-a-letter is a favorite Connections type for purple, so I 
always try to spot it. Solving purple isn't always necessary, but these types 
are generally easier to answer than some other kinds, because you don't need 
much specialist knowledge  just the ability to add a letter and form some 
other words. And so it was today, with SNOOP(Y), DROOP(Y), GOOF(Y) and LAD(Y) 
all being CARTOON DOGS MINUS Y. 

Completing purple meant that I didn't have to worry so much about the other 
groups, because I only needed two of the three (supposedly) easier ones. I 
got them in the form of KINDS OF REELS (blue) and GATHERING SPOT OUTSIDE A 
RESIDENCE (yellow), meaning I kept my streak for another day. 

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know. Yesterday's NYT 
Connections answers (Tuesday, 17 September, game #464) YELLOW: GET EXCITED,

HOMOPHONES DUG, MATTE, MIC, PEAT What is NYT Connections? 

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
