I discover myself disagreeing with the NYT’s selection of theme trace pretty typically. That is probably unfair, as a result of as I do know from expertise it may be a really difficult factor to think about a clue that’s useful with out giving the sport away. However even bearing that in thoughts, the selection of ‘Good match’ right here appears barely deceptive. In any case, ‘good match’ works completely effectively for the spangram, WELLSUITED, and for a few of in the present day’s solutions – as an illustration LEISURE and JUMP. But it surely does not work for CIVIL or BIRTHDAY in any respect; these are varieties of swimsuit, sure, however they are not a ‘good match’ in any approach. STRONG could be – if one thing is your robust swimsuit, it’s a good match for you. However CIVIL particularly… no, it wanted a unique clue right here.
That set me on the fallacious path right here, and I wanted two hints to ascertain that sure, all the solutions had been varieties of swimsuit. As soon as I knew that it was fairly straightforward to seek out the others. And possibly that is why it is best that the trace did throw me off the scent – as a result of with out that I would have most likely had yet one more excellent recreation, and that will get boring after some time…
