I am going to decline on my prize, but thank you for the nice compliment about me, Art. These prizes should ONLY be given in my opinion to the outstanding players and I have not reached that point only being an average player in these games. I am doing pretty well in Wordle, starting to enjoy Strands, and Connections is my biggest challenge as you know. It would make no sense for me to have a Connections prize. You ARE correct though, Art, about my comments being extensive/interesting. At best you could perhaps send me a simple laminated certificate stating my being the most sociable person in Art's site. Your simple praising about me is enough being my prize/reward. 😊
@@ellensassani I would be OK getting another type of prize/gift being inexpensive. My getting s Connections Clock or Mug would again make no sense because my skills in Connections need improvement. It makes perfect sense for Andrea to get a Connections Mug/Clock because of her improvements/high scores in this game. You are a very pleasant/considerate person, Ellen. I just appreciate Art's positive comments about me as a prize with my minor contributions is not necessary. I have no difficulty making my extensive comments. ☺️
Again, a Connections Mug/Clock for me would make no sense because my skills in Connections need improvement. I have no difficulty making my extensive comments and just appreciate the positive comments about me from Art. You are a very pleasant/thoughtful person, Ellen. 😀

Oh! I have a question. When a drummer flips a stick, does that serve any musical purpose, such as changing grips, or is that just for fun or showmanship?
@@ellensassani It serves a purpose when done specifically to switch from Matched Grip to Traditional Grip, or specifically on a Drum Set sometimes drummers will do half-flip to get ready for Rim Knocks (Clave) on Snare. Most of the time though when you see ticks-a-flippin it's a hot dog showoff flare move from the drummer! Once my students learn some basics I reward them with flip moves :-) ! In fact just taught a couple yesterday and she loved it!
I am so unbelievably mad. I cannot tell you how many times i have started with adage just saying I know itll happen one day. I saw that word months ago and was like you know what thats my starting word. Its a word that people wont think about and itll happen one of these days. Anyway soapbox over
Nice. Though, I didn't waffle over the word 'sting'. I loved the movie "The Sting" (1973 - Paul Newman, Robert Redford). You really need to watch it. Two huge thumbs up.
Wordle in 4 FICUS ALTER ADOBE ADAGE Connections: Much better than yesterday. Made 2 mistakes, and didn't get the time bonus. However, I did get the order and got 3.5 of the categories. I said "American Symbols" instead of "Seen On the Dollar Bill (though I was thinking of that), so a half-point is fair, for this. 6.5/10 Strands: Perfect Score. I'm musically well-versed, so this was my forte. ;)
I had the most accomplished feeling after the puzzles today! It was so satisfying. Wordle in 4, Strands was perfect and Connections was also a 10. The reason I didn't get the rainbow of shame (love that term!l) only because music is not my strong suit. I saw the Canada one right away but needed to work out the fourth one, Prince. Nearly put pyramid in the schemes. So fun, so satisfying today.
It makes perfect sense that YOU are getting a Connections prize. You have improved in this game and have had your share of 10's, Andrea. 😊 I WOULD have been OK accepting a WORDLE Clock/Mug if either item existed. 😂
Please send me an email with a mailing address hopchazz. It will be my pleasure to send you an absolutely beautiful certificate in recognition of your contributions to the channel and the word-solving community. (BTW I do this for my graduating students and they always love it; some say it's even better than the one given by their school).
i only knew adage for the wordle from connections yesterday! didn't do so hot on connections- only 2 of the categories and was 1 away the rest. it's how i've been recently... but we'll try again tomorrow!
