"I used to get stuck on the purple category every time. Now I start by looking for word patterns instead of meanings. I've solved three puzzles this week that would have stumped me before!"

"The best tip I learned was to take a screenshot before submitting. When I make a mistake, I go back and see what I missed. I've doubled my success rate in just two weeks!"
