I was thinking Club Foot being a thing - although that isn't exactly fixed by Orthopedics. Bark (as in, "My feet are barking") also fits.

Scientist isn't a bad go either though.

Ah interesting, why club? I figured scientist because medicine is science.

If he wanted club foot, pretty sure the clue would have been foot.

I think I agree over Club, the more I think about it.

But, over Bark?

What would you clue for {Shoe, Scientist} vs {Shoe, Bark}?

Slipper might've been better for {Shoe, Bark}, perhaps...

Alright, I think I'm good with Scientist. That's probably the best fit here.

If I had bark with our 3 animal words, I'd add it as 4th in the first clue (though not saying Awaclus necessarily would have). Maybe wooden for shoe and bark? Although that runs to the issue of club. Can you think of a better clue for scientist and shoe though? Feels to me he specifically chose a scientific-sounding word.

Btw scientist may also have been for construction now that I think of it, through engineering.

Yay!

Good clues Awaclus! I feel like we were able to read them well, and make good decisions based off them as we went too.

The last blue was cap!

Fang, you were dead on. Halo was a grace cap!

Block went with engine on tachometer. (Engine block needle). Sorry for the confusion!

And indeed, construction was for scientist, shoe, pipe and skyscraper. I figured Didds could hint grace and cap with a piece of headgear associated with grace (which she sort of did, although I didn't see halo coming) so I had to try to end the game that turn. I guess I should have included field in the clue to make it less ambiguous.

Wow! Great game. So close!

And what do you know, Halo is indeed a British rock band and their 2002 album is on our shelf. (Well actually as a result of this it is on playing now.)

Is there another piece of headgear associated with grace? A mitre, maybe?

I didn't think too hard about it, I thought of tiara (because it's stereotypically worn by graceful people) and I considered that dangerous enough so I didn't try to come up with something better.

As the newest comer, you can divvy up the teams Awaclus!

Playerlist is
Awaclus
Galzria
Eevee
Didds
fang
EFHW

I don't really have a preference either way, so let's do

Awaclus
Galzria
Eevee

vs

Didds
fang
EFHW

Second on the list, me and Galz spymasters? Got a lot on this morning, but I'll get round to making a board soonish.
