Blue jumped out at me the moment I saw them. I didn't know purple, and it seems like a bit of a stretch.

Didn't like this one tbh. I googled Hasselblad because I'd never heard of it before and learning it was a camera company with Kodiak on the board made it pretty obvious camera companies were a category, but that just meant I had to google all of them with the word camera. Then yellow has five answers it could be. I usually don't mind that, but Kisscam is on the very obscure purple, so it means you just have to guess the easiest one if you haven't figured out the hardest one.

Once I looked up that word I knew the others in the category. But yeah, same thing happened with me and yellow.

I didn't mind Hasselblad, because if you knew what it was, it told you the category, and could not be a trap.

I rushed yellow, and I still think AstroTurf is a poor fit with the others, but that's my fault.

I didn't like this one. I more or less knew what green was going to be, but also had never heard of Hasselblad, so I put it off and proceeded to get tripped up by kisscam for a while. I ended up googling Hasselblad and everything fell into place after that.

Like blue yesterday, green stuck out at me immediately. Blue was straight forward as it tied in perfectly with yesterday's Stands theme, so the concept was still fresh in my mind. Purple was, once again, a bit of a stretch.

Not too bad this time for me. I was worried about blue because I noticed that there were words that fit in that category, but there were also more than four available. I gave it a shot once only four were left and it worked out.

FFS.... Volleyball is also Olympics. And is a sport that people have actually heard of since 'breaking' hasn't even been featured yet.

I got baited in that first one with general sports.

I'm glad I gave up and started guessing blue and purple because I'd have never in a million years figured those out.
