Aside: how strict are we being on rules?  The Codenames rules includes expert clue rules (where you can give "0" and "unlimited" as numbers), rules about proper names that are technically more than one word, rules about rhyming clues...  And we'll play more than one round, right?

Edit: In case anybody misses it, my clue is on the previous page (if you are using the default number of posts per page).

Ivote yes for multiple games, unlimited and 0 as guesses, I'm fine with proper names. What does the rule say about rhyming?

If your group wants, you can rule to allow clues with no connection other than rhyming.  You can't specify that it is a rhyming clue, of course.

@silverspawn
Sorry!

I think that's mostly my fault  :(

I also read the rules - yeah, they say rhyming is okay, other than that it has to about the meaning of the word, not the position, and the number must not give a clue.

I say yes to everything but rhyming. If you have a question about a specific clue just PM the other soy master

You have much to learn before you can become a soy master.

So, unlimited means you can have as many guesses as you want but you don't know how many the new clue applies to.

I'm on mobile so I can't really edit.  Anybody can do it though, since it's public.

Only on f.ds does that clue make any sense.

This might be viewed as illegal by some gaming groups, as the association is on merit of spelling (more precisely, on merit that they are mistaken for each other because of spelling).

They are associated in meaning both in Dominion (actions that trash and gain treasures) and outside of Dominion too (verbs that apply to precious metals), as I explained above.  It's not only an association by spelling.  In any case, the rulebook says that it is the opposing spy master's call, and I'm not going to begrudge it.

Scale is neutral.

Good job, though.
