Just did this one for the first time, was fun.

Just took a glance at Minute Cryptic for the first time... I think I need to go to bed before trying to tackle that one.

The thing with cryptics, unless you learn the rules, the answers will seem like nonsense. Minute Cryptic is good for beginners, because they have a really nice hint system, and they have YouTube videos explaining each clue so you can learn how they work.

I just go with whatever I notice first.

Figuring out the easy ones first but not picking them and getting purple by process of elimination doesn't feel like accomplishing anything special IMO

I tend to try and identify a couple of them before guessing because there are often "trick" categories. I actually figured out green and blue first (edit: by first I mean on my first read through the answers) this morning and figured I may as well try to see if I could get the other two figured out before guessing.

Also I was just trying to make kut feel inadequate and nothing more for anyone else.


Also the trick categories and going for what I noticed first rather than trying to identify a few of them before guessing resulted in far more mistakes (though I don't have any of those stats since I didn't have a subscription until after I changed my strategy). On a 240 day streak with 202 perfect games since I got the subscription as a gift for Christmas last year.
