I would have never been able to guess the purple one

Yeah I never really liked those types of categories. Seem a bit too contrived.

I groaned when I saw what the purple group was.

Thought butte was butter without the r and was stuck on that lol, and that blue was "boat related" rather than tattoos.

Since when is a swallow a classic tattoo of any sort, let alone a nautical one?

It's rooted in superstition. Swallows always return home. Also, the number of swallow tattoos represent miles at sea. (I didn't know about the "miles at sea" part until I looked it up just now.)

Affording to the bot 55% of first attempts got yellow wrong. That's what happens when you put 5 words that mean the same thing. Bad puzzle today.

28% picking the wrong 4 and 20% another wrong 4. And 16% getting the correct 4. 4% and 3% for the final variations.

Edit: Though I guess, to be fair, I was supposed to avoid the category and come back to it later. But yellow is supposed to be the freebie.
