That's an interesting twist... a lot more anxiety involved in clicking the Submit button since, even if you're very confident your selections go together, you could still be missing one. Strategically, I guess it's more or less mandatory to solve the big categories first and narrow the list down since any random assemblage of 16 words is going to contain some spurious 2 or even 3 word groups just by chance.

Although I've only played once I imagine, like connections, there's a culture based knowledge angle that could make it more difficult.
