Always feels like cheating when the connections game has words that could fit in multiple of the categories they picked

penryu

@ckape This was my specific grumble today. (Looking at you, Spark.)

But I consider it a feature now.

@penryu @ckape yeah, that's the whole point of the game, friends.

@evan @penryu I guess I'm just annoyed that I finally figured out one of the word _____ categories without it being the last one, but then there were 6 things that fit in it

@evan @penryu The other thing is I do like when there are false categories that don't add up to four, though. That's tricky but fair.

@evan @ckape Absolutely.

Not gonna lie though... some of these categories are absurdly gerrymandered.

"Sorry, your selections of 'JZ', 'JNE', 'JNC', and 'JNAE'' do not fit the category of 'x86 branch instruction that don't use zero'."

@evan @ckape Presumably JZ belongs in the "Quintagenarians with a net worth greater than half of Europe" category.
