    Great job on the purple one! Amazing!

    i was pissed when Trunk, Limb, Branch and Bow were not a group and I bombed out without even getting yellow.
    It's funny how you had like 3 of them correct in your head but overthought it

    Every time you see the word "corn" you think of "Korn" ... it finally paid off!

    they def hinted at it with limb biscuit these little sneakers!

      I noticed that, too 😊

      I noticed limb biscuit immediately, but laughed and moved on and never considered it again. Even though I guessed yellow 3rd and limb biscuit was one of 8 answers on the board. Got 3/4: g,b,y,purple by default.

    Your first play was mine, too 😊. I saw yellow early, but did not think LIMB belonged, so I played blue next.

      7:02 he thought he had already guessed branch, division, wing and it wasn't one away (oops) I also thought Limb did not fit in yellow. Yellow is parts of an organization. If it was parts of an organism, then division doesn't fit. Just Part of Something in general is too vague

    the most frustrating connections are the ones where you can basically tell what the cats are but the 4 words aren't coming together. I'm with you on limb not really being used in the same way the others are

      I was also thinking more of "extension" or "offshoot" rather than section.

    Well done Doug , the bands were beyond me. All I could think of for stained was stained glass which got me nowhere !

    Doug! Save this as one of your superb solves, sticking with it! ... As a full-time percussionist/drummer the Mallet/Drumstick was easy as well as bands for me. Although I do love me some Kentucky Fried Chicken, like you!

  • @anniea8406
    @anniea8406 26 дней назад +3

    I almost fell for the KFC category too, Doug!! You aren’t alone! And now I think a good KFC dinner is in order for me sometime soon!

    I got them all correct, except I could not get the category for Purple. I'm sure that was a mystery for most people, because what a crazy one.

  • @Steve-d4j
    @Steve-d4j 25 дней назад

    You did it! I got them all very quickly.

  • @SamWords13

    Nice one, Doug! You saw the purple connections early :O I got them all correct with no mistakes but only saw purple right at the end after a bit of struggling to figure out what in the world the purple category was. And then it dawned on me! Thanks to some of the more well-known "words" in that group 😂

    I'd say you did a good job today, you worked it all out ❤

  • @Tiqerboy

    It took a while but you got through it. Well done. I found it fascinating how you talked yourself into each category along the way and eventually got there in the end. Connections can sometimes take a while if you don't get the Aha moment right away.
    I did get the perfect solve in green, light blue, yellow and purple order. But I didn't explain purple fully because all I could think of is Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park and had a hunch the names were mis-spelled but I wasn't 100% sure of that. As for the other two, I do not know them but I'm sure I've heard their music over the airwaves. 90s / early 2000s era music. I was there.

    Just YELLOW and BLUE today, Purple was totally beyond me and Green did not come to me at all,

  • @jamesstaats6105
    @jamesstaats6105 25 дней назад

    I still don't play every day, but I did today and did ok. Solved yellow, green and blue with moderate thought. I had no chance at purple, but at least I thought it was a legitimate category. Edit: Doug, that was actually very entertaining. I liked the way that purple just fell out of the sky. Green was a good category for me as I play guitar and tried to teach myself violin several years ago. All I can say about the violin experiment is that fretted instruments are much easier.

    Doug!!! I had to step away because I was getting too worked up yelling at you. To watch you initially discount each group just as you were putting it together was painful!!! Incredibly impressed that you got the band names! I solved quickly today, but got the purple only by default - would NEVER have gotten that one!!!

  • @Edward-1025
    @Edward-1025 26 дней назад +1

    4?4 No mistakes BGYP I, like Doug, held off on yellow because I didn't think Limb quite fit. I surprisingly got the NuMetal bands rather quickly at the end.(not my favorite rock genre)

    got none.. but waiting for my KFC order.... lmboooooo

  • @LeesaDeAndrea
    @LeesaDeAndrea 25 дней назад

    Green, yellow, blue, purple. Did not make the purple connection & still don't. I suppose corn is Korn (never listened to) and biscuit is Limp Biscuit (also never listened to) but Lincoln? Stained? Haven't a clue.

  • @thorneto2742
    @thorneto2742 26 дней назад +3

    Staind is arguably not a nu metal band but Korn, Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park are some of the bands most associated with NuMetal as a genre so I’m going to disagree with you on that one. Full point for sure but people do in fact refer to them as nu metal.

    Not posting if the game annoyed me... so might not post much.
    Got in order. 🟨🟩🟦🟪
    I never try too hard to figure out the last one though. Made me laugh. Hate Nu-metal though... They just took all the wrong lessons from Faith No More and are better forgotten.
