Yeah, I was guessing. I know you can tell. I’m not ashamed. I would have never guessed purple ever. As you can guess, I’m a dumb American. 😅

Actually, quite the opposite. I usually find this puzzle to be designed in a way that's easier for Americans than the rest of us, because of references to American culture or American vocabulary or pronunciations.

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I’m not referencing the puzzle, but purple itself. We don’t know the capitals of other countries here, generally speaking of course.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 2 points 3 days ago

Oh of course. Yeah, purple was a tough one.

Spoilers

I didn't even recognise that Keto was Quito after I had accidentally stumbled into purple, when I did realise what Roam and Soul were.

Proud of getting this one perfect, although I was convinced yellow was a red herring and that sent me down a big rabbit hole

Some days it just clicks- yesterday's one was an ordeal!

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 3 points 3 days ago

Trebuchet is a bot (or just smart as hell 😤) .

Ok, but what is Keto?

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago

Keto is

Quito, Ecuador.

But yeah, I didn’t get it either.

Tap for spoiler

I found the Golden Girls trick answer to be cruel.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 points 3 days ago

I'm aware that that's a show that existed, but was completely incapable of falling for the trick because I couldn't name a single character in it (and could only name a single actor).

[–] cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I fell for it too, then realized it's spelled with an E.

Got lucky. I had no idea what purple was.
