day for your time zone  which means that some people are always playing 
'today's game' while others are playing 'yesterday's'. If you're looking for 
Monday's puzzle instead then click here: NYT Connections hints and answers

The answers to today's Connections, game #849, are YELLOW: GOSSIP BUZZ, DIRT, 
DISH, TALK GREEN: SEEN AT A WEDDING ALTAR, BOUQUET, CAKE, RING BLUE: TEAM 
BUNCH, CREW, GROUP, PACK PURPLE: MUSICALS PLUS STARTING LETTER BRENT, CHAIR, 
FANNIE, SCATS My rating: Easy My score: Perfect 

For the first time in ages I got all of todays groups in difficulty order; 
this is something that gives me a small tingle of pleasure. 

Whats unusual about that today is that, with the exception of the purple 
group, any of them would qualify as the yellow/easiest on any other 
Connections day. This easygoing start to the week makes me worry about what 
we might have in store later on 

Kudos if you got MUSICALS PLUS STARTING LETTER.Bonce  which is the musical 
Once plus the letter B  is the only other one I could think of. Yesterday's

HELONIUM, YEOMAN What is NYT Connections? 

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
