Some days I can stare at the connecting network in ages and see nothing.
Other days I see it all in a moment. This was the case today, when my only hesitation was the immediate inclusion of roll into what became formats of gold.
Meanwhile, dinosaur and rubble automatically made me think of things seen in “The Flintstones”, but I was more sure of the cylinder of material, so went instead. As a fan of Flintstones who would name their daughter Pebbles (fortunately disregarded), I be ashamed of my hesitation.
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.
