“A shade envious?”

🔵🔵🟡🔵

🔵🔵🔵

I’m not clear on the envious part and that slowed me down a bit.

Envy = jealousy = green. Seems a little far-fetched, but it worked. The word they gave me for a clue was both helpful and misleading.

This is the second time in the last few days that a hint as been given. I seldom check the comments before doing the games but a coupleof days ago I did and the hint "game" gave it away as soon as I saw the puzzle. Doing that isn't fair.

I certainly don’t want to spoil anyone’s fun so I’m sorry for that and will avoid posting anything that could be a hint until day after. But I’m curious what could possibly be interesting to look at here before playing!

This one was by Dylan Campbell, another new name for me. I'm glad that they are having multiple people create the puzzles, although Tracy Bennett always does the editing.

Tracy Bennett (the editor) created this one, which was by far the easiest one for me so far. It took me no more than two minutes to finish it.

This was the hardest for me yet — I had to have a hint. And there were a couple of words I’m not familiar with.

I don’t like the scangrams that don’t begin and end on an edge. I struggled today.

Today's was hard for me, too. Now I'm off to look up the two words I'm not familiar with, so hopefully I can learn from it.

Another one from Heidi Erwin. I have not liked most of hers.

As you can all see I needed two hints. Even after the first I wasn't sure of the direction. After the second I knew and also knew I was in trouble.:) Although the last four I got quite quickly.
