Wasn't sure about wave, but it didn't fit anywhere else. The rest was a fastball down the pipe.

6 out of 5 difficulty for me. Purple is way over my head. Only played them as leftovers, after trying body part rhymes, Y as consonant, a couple of others that went nowhere. Also thought the blues were weird with two generic terms and two specifics.

250 in a row, but it wasn’t looking good for a while. Bit on the misdirection so hard that I ended up with a foursome that made no sense. Had to rethink the whole thing.

Spur (San Antonio) worked when I at first saw it as Texas teams, not narrowed to Dallas.

Definitely miscalculated which would be purple. Guess college nicknames aren’t as ubiquitous knowledge as I assumed. And fill-in-the-blank is often purple.

Got there, but a monumentally different reasoning for the purples (replace the last letter with T to make another word). Five possible blues made it tricky.

You canceled because they reported something that happened?
