Luck has nothing (maybe a little) to do with it.

A streak is any puzzle completed, so a 0 star game adds to your streak the same that a 5 star does. You have a separate star tally under the streak.

“Bow to your king!”

Another trick is: if there is only one of a letter on the board (like today, one X and one Y), you can go ahead and move the letter to its spot once you solve the word. You don’t have to wait to strategize a double-green swap. This can help you move faster on the puzzle.

I’m at 355 and I still haven’t created an account to save my streak.

Every streak begins with 1.

All the stars!

Should be “shonetines I git shad.”

I already liked Mark, (I just did a guilty rewatch of 13 Going on 30) but now I’m a die-hard.

“prospective”

You sly dog.

Tons of “false positives” in this one. The streak starts again!

You have to solve a few words before you start moving any pieces to try to maximize the number of double-green swaps. Any time you figure out a double-green, go ahead and do it - it will never keep you from getting the full 5 stars.

A trick is: if there is only one of a letter on the board, you can always put it in place without worrying about a double-green swap. Often times it opens up a chance for a double-green later.

Hope that helps.

The words and definitions are below once the game is over, but I don’t think they show up in the puzzle. Good luck today.

Go all in!

Nice!

Ninjas are cool, but I wonder what actual threat the Hand is against Peter.

Yes, I usually solve at least four words before I start moving pieces and try to get as many double swaps as possible.

When evolution says “no notes.”

I am in construction (not manufacturing) and own my own business. Truth is, they are both right.

Rodney is right because there are a huge number of variables that the prof’s equation is ignoring. Also, it is generally a good idea to know what you are manufacturing and work to produce that product as efficiently as possible. The professor is sort of putting the cart before the horse by building a factory with no product.

That said, we are in a learning environment and seemingly in a lower-level class. You have to strip away real-world variables to teach the lessons at hand. The professor is right not to include corrupt politicians and mafia folk, it’s too much when you are trying to start with the basics. But he should’ve had the class decide on a product - he said it himself, it could be anything - and then build up from there.

Mafia payoffs are a 300 level course.
