New -Connections Today (Play #755) – The answers

The answers to today’s connections, game #755, are …
- Yellow: Con game Congestion, racket, schedule, socket
- Green: Combine, as baking ingredients Beat, mix, fold, tube
- Blue: Lnem Combustion, itching, long, pine
- Purple: sorts of lists Bucket, laundry, card, to-do
- My rating: Easy
- My score: 2 Errors
I classify today’s connections as easy, but I still struggled with it.
The purple group should have been simple, except for the fact that there are many kinds of lists, and I included two wrong – Burn and Long – before I found the right quartet.
I am a serial author of to-do lists, nobody I have ever ended. I watched a video recently in which a scary Life Optimizer said people like me should write two lists of the ordinary long to-do list, then another list of the three most important things from the topping list.
It makes sense to me, but I will never remember to do it – I will have to put it on my bucket list.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
