I've also been playing Strands recently. Probably won't post my daily scores though.
I play
  • Wordle on self-imposed hard mode (I pretend it's on, and "switch" to normal if I can't come up with a word) (fun, fair)
  • Connections (fun but uneven)
  • Strands (I try to go with no hints but puzzles are very uneven w.r.t whether one is solvable without them)
  • Tiles, trying for 45 (or 60), everything else is a fail (NYT's "perfect" is any unbroken chain, I'm not sure if a chain of 45/60 is guaranteed to exist)
  • the Mini (also very uneven, sometimes the dumb comes in pairs: "singer who performs 5 down" - "song performed by 3 across", screw this and any clue ending with "maybe")
Letterboxed can go fuck itself, it's a travelling salesman thing. Computer tasks are for computers.
