New York Times Connections Guide Sunday 10 August
It’s another wonderful weekend in August, though I would lie if I said I wasn’t itching for a cooler weather at this point. It was warm with a cloud in the sky, and all I ask for is a little rain. Or a lot of rain. The humidity of any kind would be great. Again, in a few months, when the snow is accumulated high and is too cold to get out, I will fly for summer sun. We always want what we cannot have.

Okay, Connectioneers, we have a connection to solve, so let’s group a few words!
How to play connections
Connections are the second popular puzzle game nyt games outside the main crossword and an extremely fun, free offer that will carry your brain every day. Play it here.
The goal is to get a 16 -word group and find links between four pairs of four of them. They could be specific categories of terms or could be a small puzzle puzzles where words can come before or after them you have to understand. And they become more complicated than there.
There is only one set of the right answers for this, and you only get a certain number of attempts so you can’t just spam around until you find something. There are difficulties encoded by color, which will usually go from yellow, blue/green to purple, as the difficulty increases, so you know that they enter and when you start connecting them together.
You can choose the four words you think are connected and you will either get a resolution and a lighted order that shows you how you connected. If you are close, it will tell you that you are a long one. Again, four mistakes you lose, but if you want to know the answers without failing, either coming here, or deleting your cookies on the internet and try again.

I certainly had trouble with this puzzle, using three bad speculations in the process. Strangely, I ended up solving it in reverse order, or at least the reverse of the way I normally solve them. I first got the Purple Group, then the blue, then the green, then the yellow. I hit this until my bad speculations and how they explained what I was really looking for.
I was reasonable, but not completely, sure that I am dealing with signs of some kind and the things that have to do with the envelopes, but I also thought that some of the words are geared to speeches or concentrations. Having this in mind, I did some wrong (but close!) Guess before I realize that at least one group should have to do with freedom of speech and that made me think of the first amendment, which we honestly should always think of these censorships.
This has led me to assemble, report, press and speech and my first team. I was sure that my joy for the signs was right. I had guessed the exit, the open and the welcome was all part of this team, but Push had escaped me before. Then this old comic book with a long side popped into my head. What the guy pushes a door that says he pulls – and the above sign says “school for gifted”.
From here, I returned to the idea of a folder and got a address, stamp, envelope and name. I was worried that this was very literal at first and this folder was actually the other use of the word, such as something that surrounds something else (though this is what makes a folder in a letter). This left only the yellow team: accessible (which I thought was a sign earlier) was grouped close, convenient and close. Everyone was done, with a single guess to lose!
Overall, a logically provocative puzzle! How did you do it?
