This isn’t my favorite game. I hate spelling bee too.

Not very good at this game. Got the theme quickly, but not very good at locating the words. I think I’ll stick to NYT Spelling Bee and Connections.

I muscled my way through this one, but I still don’t get the theme. Can someone PM me? Or I can wait until tomorrow, I guess.

I also don’t get the theme and did quite awful! That’s ok! Funny the games we like and those we don’t. I personally don’t like Spelling Bee or Connections!

It took me forever to understand the hint/theme. Once I did :woman_facepalming:t3::woman_facepalming:t3::woman_facepalming:t3:. And that was after completing the game!

Count me among the people who brute forced my way through and still don’t understand the theme… Can someone PM me an explanation? :pray:t3:

ETA: I got the explanation. :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

I got the theme but generally had a hard time with today’s puzzle. But then again, I struggled with all the games this morning. Not my day…
