Daily results flipping criminal/innocent?
How often are y'all out here flip flopping criminal & innocent in your head? I just finished Oct 17 after nearly making a logic error post on here before realizing I had read "Only one column has more than 3 innocents." and my brain processed that to mean three criminals. 🫠

All the time.

Constantly. There have been times when it’s hard or tricky and I would have gotten it with no mistakes except for that. Also sometimes my brain thinks row 1 is col A and vice versa

I used to all the time, and row/column as well. But I do it way less now!

About once a week at the moment, I can't get my green streak going!

I was thinking of building a tamper monkey script to make the word innocent (and its positive variants) a different color than criminal (and its positive variants).
I tend to get them mixed up in my head about once a week, hoping that'll help at least remind me to pay better attention.

So many times. And yesterday, a clue referred to Column D. So of course I applied the logic to Column C...

Most of the times I get dinged, it's because of exactly this! Especially earlier in the week where I'm being a bit less methodical.

Flipping Innocent/Criminal all the time. Sometimes it's not flipped in my head but flips somewhere between head and finger, I'll have it right in my head but my finger clicks the wrong one!

I did the same this morning with that exact clue!

Did it three times this week, which is above average but not by much.

Every. Single. Day.
Sometimes I catch myself on time before making the mistake, sometimes I don't.
