For there is clearly interest.

People who aren't already in the other game can take precedent here.

Do you peeps want to play 2v2 (I'd sit out), or wait for one more and play 3v3?

Is there anyone else who we think might be interested? We could message them.

I'd play here too, but I'd definitely defer if you find someone else (since I'm already in Codenames VIII).

Let's start the game up!

The blue team is Eevee, Awaclus and ADK, and EFHW, scola and Didds are team red.

What's the syntax for the forum dice app? (for randomizing the first spymasters)

Is there a post somewhere that explains the etiquette on f.ds? I have played Codenames like twice so I know the basic idea, but I don't necessarily remember what kind of stuff was considered acceptable or whether there's variations depending on the group.

We are still kind of in the process of figuring it out. In VIII we've done open discussion between the guessers and locked in answers in bold. You can read a sample of that game to get an idea if it helps.

For leech tick, water, disease*, slug/scorpion come to mind. Tick for also being a parasitic creature that sucks blood, water for being the general habitat for leeches, disease for cupping therapy used to cure whatever in times of the yore, slug/scorpion for being animals like leech is. Feel free to lock in whatever you feel is strongest when you log on unless you feel we need to discuss more.

*Desease is probably a misspelling of disease?

TICK

I also think Alien (as in the film) and Egypt (because of the biblical plagues) are potential ones if we think of leech as a metaphor for parasite in general. Disease and water are also legit guesses. I'm less convinced about slug and scorpion because there are other animals there, too.

Disease maybe? I have no idea which one out of water, alien and Egypt makes the most sense for the third guess.

I think head is the most obvious one. I guess knife could be another since it can inflict trauma, and maybe charge?

Pick two from {seal, buck, bat}, I suppose. And our spymaster's saying mammals rather than animals suggests that scorpion is not one of our words.

Ah, there are plenty of other non-mammal animals on the board, come to think of it.

And who knows about the alien!

Jack, should we try for the 3rd ingredient? It could be iron.

Okay....the internets say its when we have found them all.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codenames_(board_game)
There are 8 red words and 9 blue. 

So, we'd need 2 more to win

If we successfully get the last ingredient, it puts our spymaster in the fortunate position of having to clue only one word next time, which would be great. The big risk is that we hit the assassin; the little risk is that we hit one of their words, but we'd still be in a favourable position. I think it may be worth going for.

Good job EFHW with iron as an ingredient. And for knowing while a bat is a mammal it’s not as mammaly as the others. Jack, it’s been great to play with you!

And for knowing while a bat is a mammal it’s not as mammaly as the others.

Fun fact: Bats are the second most diverse order (after rodents) in the class of mammals. I would say that platypus (for whatever reason a word in Codenames) is less mammaly.

"It was on such a blustery day as this that my uncle Robert..."

I think we should probably be going for DAY, and maybe COLD. Not sure about the others.

Well, there's a lot of things here...

Hot spells and hotlinks are things, pans and pizzas are hot, orange is a pretty hot color. Dances and models can be hot if that's what Eevee was going for, but probably not because there are other more literal alternatives.

I also don't think that it's pan+pizza+orange because in that case, it would have been easier to just say "food" or "cooking" or something, but I do think that pan and pizza are the most likely ones because they're the hottest things in the literal sense.

Novel

It's a plot point that they're leaving London because of the blitz, I would prefer London as a pick over Hollywood

OK, I read backl the messages and see red is EFHW, Jack, and me (subbing for WestCoastDidds). And that yes it's our turn.

That said, I like shoe and whip, the most. Other possibilities being Mail (as in armor) and Cotton (a material).

The clue for rabbit and mammoth wouldn't be fossil, I think something like "furry" or "mammal" would be more likely.

Mammoth and tick? Mayyybe, I think some other clue would be more likely though, something referring to how mammoths might have ticks. I'm not a scientist by any means, but I associate scorpions more with ancient times than ticks.

Hmm... If there were 3 for noise, he wouldn't have had to go unlimited for us to get those plus the one for correct. So I'm thinking that this means there are only two for noise, 1 for correct, and we'll have to guess one completely random.

I like crash and bark for noise. Tick or spot maybe for correct?

True. I'm fine with tick next.

Head could also be noise (noises in your head).

The number is supposed to represent how many words match the clue, not just how many he wants us to guess. That's the whole reason for the unlimited rule.

So I think we haven't had a clue for the last word. Which means the last word should not be at all close to any clue we've heard. (Probably for either team). Of course that's also true of the assassin.

What do you think of that logic? (Am I overthinking it?)

I was thinking maybe we were wrong about whip, but it happened to be red. Also rabbit would be less likely to be blue or the assassin since it could be picked as leather. It's not a great guess for leather, though.

Red also got all my intended clues, albeit one turn late with TICK. The last one, I wasn't sure whether RABBIT would enter their minds or not with respect to noise, so I gave Unlimited rather than 3.

How was I supposed to know there was some Czech movie named Groupie?! Not sure if you knew that or googled it, if the latter that's why I'd vote no googling allowed. :) (There's always some obscure reference)

The third word was a vacation. A bit of a stretch, but I didn't see any connection to Czech so I didn't think it was too risky. I was trying to connect those three words so I could then go nonhuman: 4, but I was waiting for blue to first get one of their words picked that would have fit my clue. (And had been thinking 5, until blue got leprechaun for us)

Yeah, I  googled it.  I was going to suggest no google from now on. It changes the game too much. I didn't see vacation as an answer for groupie. Sorry.

Dragon and forest were the others for nibelung, I realized it was kind of an obscure reference but was hoping for the best

Yes, fan, van and vacation.

Then nonhuman would have been bear, unicorn, tail, lab (and leprechaun). (Hoping they'd cover dragon first)

Oh good gravy!  I need the googles!  That name is in Hitchjiker's Guide to the Galaxy so that is my best idea.

Awaclus, I hope you have either read more widely than I have or have a better memory.  (awesome work on RICH by the way! High five!)

So, alien is my best guess. And well, my only guess...

Air should be red on the board, no? (and engine neutral)

For Railroad, I think the best is Tie. After that, I'm not sure. Is a railroad hand some kind of job? Other maybes wheel, or slip (is that something?)

And I have another idea for Current. If it's like current events, maybe Press?

Oh lord, trying to deal with the intricacies of a word that's not in my dialect. Wheel looks fairly obvious.

Is/was there a Washington-and-something railroad company? It rings a bell from my games of Railroad Tycoon.

Maybe on Washington? I still think it could be slip or hand, but Washington might be better (if there is such a company, there must be right?)

So, Tie*, then Wheel

* railroad ties are those pieces that go perpendicular to the rails

Then we can decide for the other rail or other current as the next guess.

Excellent!

So we have 2 more guesses, and assuming neither tie nor wheel was also for current, 1 more for RAILROAD and 1 more for CURRENT, and 1 last word.

Options we've mentioned are:
WASHINGTON
HAND
SLIP
PRESS (for current)

To me, slip is the least likely, because it's only from some vague notion it may somehow relate to railroad, and the same for Hand (just slightly less vague notion).

So what do you think of Washington and Press? (and if you like both, which order?)

I think I'd go for Press and then Washington.

Hand seems like an obvious one. Part could be another one because it's a body part.

The third railroad was press (using rr as a verb), which was also the third current. I was going to give wishbone: 2 as the next clue so you would know there were no other clues still needing guesses.

It's always the best when you can use different meanings of a word, I agree.

Beeblebrox has an extra hand, and it's a part you could play in a movie... I knew there was a risk but I couldn't come up with a clue for all four words and had a "finger" in store for the rest as long as you got alien, which I couldn't before press from red was off the board. It was scary, glad it worked out. Really good guessing from Didds and Awaclus!

Those were also the ones I was thinking.

Brazil

Other than mail, though, can you see any others? Being only a two, I think it wouldn't be something too vaguely related.

I like Mail enough, but if you prefer to pass, I'm willing to follow that plan and save it for a +1 later.

I agree with castle, horse and torch in that order. I don't think Tokyo is very likely because the history periods in Japan work differently and also because I guess most people would think of a modern city with skyscrapers and stuff even though there are historical buildings too.

I don't know if any other meaning for Roadie than what you seem to be thinking (person who travels with band and works on setting up for concerts).

So definitely BAND.

Staff could be good for the 2nd, I don't see anything else, really.

Is it common to give more than one clue for the same word? I'm thinking grass, flute and torch are the most likely ones in a vacuum but I also think that flute and torch were probably intended for earlier clues too.

Eh, actually there necessarily has to be at least one word with a double clue at this point so I guess it's probably those three.

Doesn’t the fact they went air ->oxygen imply it’s rather one of the animals than flute? also why grass over cat or horse?

torch for sure

So it's two of cat, flute and grass I think (hope) . Maybe oxygen was given to drive us away from angel?

I'd go flute - cat, but if you prefer grass we can go with that too. Your call.

Flute

I do prefer grass, I think that plants are more associated with oxygen than animals because producing oxygen is one of the most useful things that plants do.

I guess we should pass? We could try to guess the remaining medieval word (assuming torch was one), but there isn't really much point in that because we can just do it next turn with more information.

Double oops - Drill is the assassin.

Man, it's tough here yelling at my computer screen for the past 20 hours - NO, DON'T PICK DRILL!

I was hoping you'd go with Undertaker for the 3rd. But yeah, drill was risky. Clearly, too risky, should have stayed with 2.

Sorry team!

yeah, I knew it didn't quite fit, but thought you might go for it since you considered it for iced.

the other iced was slip.

Yes. I thought Tokyo would be the strongest association and then you would figure that Port is more of a village than Teacher is.

Gold

I agree with your ideas. I think the last one is probably queen because of the non-f.ds connection, but it could also be settle because of Settlers, wine because of Wine Merchant or candle because of Candlestick Maker. If it's not queen then settle is my best guess because the other two are bigger stretches.

Those both sound good: ROPE

for the third, maybe yard? (though of course they use knots) or crane?

Want to guess one of the previously missed words? I think since wine was blue, it's likely it was one of the Dominion words and candle is the remaining one. Or we could try if ketchup is correct for the drinks.

So let's see Blue still needs 2 words, we need 4.

We know one of them is still out there for sail (and I think we got two correct) and we fairly likely got both toe correct.

If there were 3 for Spread, he could have just gone Spread:3, which leads me to think it's 2 (or possibly even just 1), 1 for sail, and then 1 random?

For spread, bed seems obvious. Then not quite sure.

I'm thinking also ketchup. am a little concerned since they considered it for drink, but it does fit spread too well for it to not be ours (too baf they didn't guess that, instead of candle)

State, settle, hawk...

Settle is the most verby, the other two are both nouns and verbs...State is more verb to me than hawk. So my order is settle, state, hawk. Garage is out there with hawk.

State is blue! You win!

The third sail was hawk. I was going to give the clue "shout" for hawk and belt next. Sorry about the yard thing, that was an excellent guess for sail and I missed it.

Why would it be check?

There's also carrot, but I guess if it was carrot and berry, the clue wouldn't have been breakfast specifically, so let's try table.

CIRCLE

Can you explain Ray reasoning?
I think it's also worth considering (but not yet voting for):
Well - gravity wells are curved
Corner - curved corners, though they were considering if for there
Concert (most vague) - for acoustics - curved ceilings

Ray is another geometric term. Corner seems like it could fit, but I think I like ray better. Does Jack like math? I think well and concert are too distant.

Nice!

So if Fence was rabbit, we have no more to guess.
If Fence wasn't rabbit; that's or last word.

You suggested Spell... If it's neutral it's no big deal, but if blue or assassin, we're in trouble.

Thoughts?

So, we got to get all three here, the other team is going to win if they get a turn.

Our clues:

Anglophone: 2 - NY and England were correct.
Breakfast: 2 - We got berry and table, seems correct.
Housing: 3 - we only got roof, 2 left
Brick: 2 - 2 left

I agree well and mine make sense for brick. Leaves one more for housing. Would you need some sort of housing to host a concert? Stock and corner come to mind as other possibilities, hmmmm.


Let's start with well and mine and think about the third if we get there. What do you think about the third word for housing? Do we think mine or well was the second one?

This was a killer week for me, but ruining the game for all of y’all is awful. :(

It happens. If it makes you feel better, it seemed clear what you're team was going to guess after Well (stock) and then we would have a one word guess for Check, so...

(i.e. the result was pretty determined at that point)

I'm not much of a music guy, I know that Awaclus is so if there is some "deeper" connection I'm not seeing there's a good chance he has. Church, theater, tuba and jam come to mind for me.

I agree with those, maybe also needle as in the needles of the singruments on a sound board, but that is a reach. Acoustics generally, are probably space related. So, let’s try church and then If that is correct theater....then let’s figure out number 3!

Well, I think I can safely say Australia without needing to consult my partner. What else? It's got a famous bridge, which would probably be my #2 choice.

Well, that seems unlikely to be a clue for maple, carrot, mammoth, foot or crash. But the others could all sort-of fit. Which do you reckon, partner?

I think paste.

Needle or belt? Maybe ground, like when you jump a car battery?

Nicely done on the last game, blue.

Yeah, belt and paste were hard to pair with needle and board as other options. I had hoped (for some reason) choosing attachment instead of attach might lead you more towards belt than needle. (after posting, I also thought about "fasten" which would clearly get belt, but then is possibly more board than belt). Any better options?

Great guessing on the other two clues - you guys nailed those out of the park!

I was counting on it being too difficult to give a good clue for belt and paste, but when I saw attachment, it had me worried. I think it was a good clue given the circumstances.

OK, so what next Slip or Price? (or does anything else make sense - I don't think India or Germany are specifically oil related)

You might have to oil up a bell or a wing, but those don't seem like strong picks.

I like Slip and Price equally. :)

Agree...I'm thinking Swing, Teacher, Bell, Square (do they play 4 square in Finland??) and then maybe Fighter?

Let's start with Swing and then if that is blue, Teacher

I think square is more likely than jacket.

I'm having a really hard time with this one, Awaclus.

For me, Braves are either a sports team (usually baseball).

For the sports team, it could be jacket and maybe square. But beyond that, I just don't know.

OK, I'm leaning towards guitar (set list) and price (set a price). I don't see how others could work.

If we get guess these, and get them correct, I'd love a crack at guessing blue's remaining words. :)

 feel like Braves could have been both for India (since braves are Native Americans that have been called Indians) and South, since the Atlanta Braves are in the South.

That said, not sure Finns like American baseball. :)

Jam and honey you could explain so many different ways (sweet, sweetener, sticky, edible, etc), I think if they are both correct (I'm worried about honey), the last word would be the reason Awaclus chose this exact clue. I just can't think of a good connection for any of the words.

For jam - honey - berry, I don't think the clue is "toast", more likely something to do how they are all edible, sweet things.

My vote is pass, but you can choose in case you feel something's better!

I think it's for the best if I take a break from Mafia for a while. These past few games, it has been hard to find the motivation to play well.

Awa, we still need two more people for this Hunger Games mafia game scola is going to give a go. Interested?

I think it's for the best if I take a break from Mafia for a while. These past few games, it has been hard to find the motivation to play well.

War seems like one. Maybe whip for second? I was thinking drill (for the army reference), but I think the clue would be "sergeant" if those were the words.

Awaclus is enigmatic and somewhat mysterious (when he plays mafia) but I feel certain that the mysteries of the Buffalo do not involve toast.  If I’m wrong, I will eat buffalo toast.

I don't remember exactly if this was a fantasy series or a location in some fantasy series or something else of that ilk.

Dwarf for sure. and I'd just go on guessing fantasy-ish words + something for toast. We have 5 left.

There is also the "famous" Murphy's law for a dropped toast always landing a certain way. I don't like cast for toast, but could see it for Erebor, like metal casting in a forge.

Finger is red!

Remaining blues were castle and cast (for Erebor), berry (for toast), and bed (not related to any clue).

Assassin was sock.

Well, I was hoping that you would guess berry, but Erebor was just an act of desperation anyway. This was just a very difficult board for blue, I can't think of a way we could have had a realistic chance of winning.

I have some ideas for their missing words for catwoman, but we should avoid giving them any hints.

Could it be dance and bear for circus ? A dancing bear is a circus act, although I recall a bear on a bike also being one and cycle is there, so not sure. Can't find any obvious circus related clues, like lion/tent/show, so Didds could have gone for the "combined word assosiation" of hinting for a single concept made of two words that only would really occur in a circus.

I don't think the clue for dance + bear would be circus, but bear or dance could be options individually I guess.

There's life and grace, if we think of the ancient Roman circuses where losing gladiators could have their life spared or not, depending on whether the emperor was merciful (I'm not sure if that's actually historically accurate, but that's a mental image that a lot of people have). That's the best I can think of.

I don't know much about Vermont except that it's Bernie Sanders's home state. And that, appropriately for a Codenames clue, it was part of both the red wall and the blue wall.

Bond is certainly one. The other could be bug, but I think team red is likely to guess that for sting so I wouldn't go for it. Any ideas for the second word?

Bond. I would guess jacket for the second word.

What do you reckon? Scuba Diver looks good to me.

We have two guesses left too (one more for sideshow + the extra guess), we can win on this turn if we get them both right. I think Didds intended for us to go for it this turn.

Post mortem:

Here's what I intended for each clue:

Catwoman (3): Thief, Grace, Mark
Vermont (4): State, East, Cold, Jacket
Sting (4): Bug, Mark , Scuba Diver, Jacket
Pressure (u): Scuba Diver, Grace
Wahlberg (u): Mark

You correctly surmised that I didn't go Vermont first, because I was especially concerned with Bear. (and why I chose Vermont over Maine). I did see Mass, but it was worth the risk, since it was neutral. Jacket, was because it's something you'd wear when it's cold (which I hoped you'd have in mind with that as the 3rd word).

So I chose Catwoman, hoping for at least the first two. Mark (in the sense of as a target) was clearly more of a stretch, but I didn't see any risk (I completely missed the Batman / Dark Knight connection, so I'm glad you never guessed that).

Then Sting: trying for Mark a 2nd time - I was thinking more of a when you get stung, it leaves a mark, but happy to see you think about a Police String. Scuba Diver was hoping you would go from Stint -> Jellyfish, and Jacket was even more of a stretch (but you weren't getting it from Vermont), though it had two paths. Again when it's very cold, it stings your face. And then, Yellow Jackets.

For Pressure, I just needed to clue in Grace and Scuba Diver. By giving unlimited, you would know at most two words, which meant the other two had to be two Sting and you were already thinking Bug and Mark. (I was so happy when I had the epiphany for connecting Grace and Scuba Diver that wasn't diving specific, as I was concerned about bay).

And lastly, Wahlberg. Just trying to think of a famous Mark. I considered Zuckerberg, but again, bay.

Hmmm....

Ares is the Greek god of war. So, soldier is my best guess.

Jupiter is a Roman god. Knife is a weapon, drill is a soldier word....

Other ideas?

I like soldier and Jupiter. I guess knife is the best option for the third word.

Marble was my third Ares word for statues of him. And I was trying to communicate that bar is not ours by not using Mars. Next clue would have been something money or wealth - related for leprechaun, suit and marble/pool/hole. Knife was an oversight by me, just didn’t realize you’d connect a god of war to knives.

Haha, I was contemplating adding more words, but was worried they'd get to knife before leprechaun (another fictional character) or mark (a male name like Ares, also a loose connection with war -> archery -> targets).

That truly is the beauty of this game. Not even what's common knowledge, I think that's easier to parse. But what's something that first comes to mind when you hear a word? Much more personal, I feel anyway.

Can you create the game? Here's the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TXkY5snm_uhZQNYvGqwrLSHjuHARIZouOP5pBEWRMXA/edit#gid=0  (also in the first post of this thread for future reference), you need to copypaste the same set of words twice and send one to Jack via pm and post the other here.

Definitely on guitar and then electric

I am leaning more towards piano as well.  You can use a pick on a bass, but it is usually a finger strum kind of thing.

I like limo and cross, not as sure on Saturn (is this because of the brand?)
A couple of others: ship (is in shipping, not boat), nail (in the road), switch (lanes).

Of those I only really like ship at the level of a 3rd guess. But not sure about more than saturn.

Eevee (or anyone) are you on a computer? Can you repost the board so it’s handy?

So, we ordered a new router this morning (thanks distance learning!) and it’s a Nighthawk. I’m not sure Awa would be thinking if that, but beyond shadow and cloak, web is a possibility.

How about Shadow first?

Another idea is plane, although I don’t have a concrete reason...just seems like a nighthawk. I think web is too far afield. I literally would have had no idea about that connection if I hadn’t been in need of a router today.

Otherwise, pass?

Hmm...

We need to get 4 more (with one being Roads); they need 3 more (one of which is nighthawk).

We probably don't get two more turns, but we have to assume we'll get one more. Which means either:
• a clue for 4 (seems unlikely given the previous clues)
•  a clue of 3 and we'll need to figure out this other Roads word.
• a clue of unlimited, meaning we'll have to take a random guess for at least 1 word and get the Roads clue.

Since we're unsure, I suggest we take the risk of guessing now and getting two shots at it.

If you agree, this is what you said previously:

I don't like nail, ship or switch. Ring is a possibility if that's another way to say beltway.  Let's pass for now.

I agree that switch is not great and I'm not convinced on ring (though in addition to a beltway there are also rotaries). I still think it could be nail or ship, but not necessarily better than saturn.

I think if I had to choose, I'd go ship > saturn > nail > ring > switch

SO I'm ok with either ship or saturn this turn, and if it's wrong and we get another turn we can try the other next turn. (unless you prefer nail to ship)

It isn't.

Fair enough. Going forward I propose we consider it (just googling for simple definitions). But even if we agree, that would be starting next game.

SO...

for this clue, let's see. While I have no idea what it might be from or means, it is a compound noun.

So since it is a compound word, I'm guessing it should be for > 1 words.
But unlimited so < 3 words.
i.e. for exactly 2.

If so, then I think I think I lean towards Theater and Pool? I don't love either, but Theater for the Philosophy part and Pool for the tube (inner tubes?) part? Anything else remotely fit? What do you think of the rest of my logic?

So my vote is Pool > Theater > Ship > *Random*

Ok, we need 1 musicians (assuming tap was also musicians), 1 apron, 1 beer and 1 thaw.

We need 2 more words and we have 2 more guesses.

Cold could have been the second word for beer.

Bread, maybe?

Bread is red!

I didn't actually key it every clue, but Bread could have worked for ANY of them! So, glad you finally got it!

Red Post Mortem:

Musicians (6): Guitar, Soul, Police, Eagle, Tap, Cold
Apron (3): Cook, Dress, Bread
Beer (2): Tap, Cold
Thaw: (2): Cold, Bread

So, I was pretty pleased with my first clue, if I do say so myself. Tap was actually for "This is Spinal Tap" and Cold for Coldplay - and I knew they were both definitely a stretch, but I only saw 3 other risky words and two were neutral. Stadium, Root and Tubes (the latter two being well enough known bands). I picked Musicians over Bands, hoping that that would make Soul an earlier guess and Stadium a later guess, if at all.

After I gave the clue, I realized I could have even gone 7, as there is also a band called Bread.

Apron should be self explanatory.

I actually had a better clue for the next one - Faucet. But I second guessed myself (worrying about Tube), that I went for Beer. And completely missed the obvious connection to Root. In fact, I almost said Beer:3, as I thought about barley and wheat connecting Beer to Bread. But you already had and extra guess and were considering Bread from before and it I wasn't sure if that was too stretchy and would just misguide you.

Finally, just in case you weren't convinced of bread I went Thaw:2 instead of just a 1 word clue for Cold.

Soul sucking is a phrase I use, but I’m not sure if that is common. is it better than octopus?

I feel confident about vacuum and then straw, though

Moscow seems clear.

Then maybe Spy and War (Cold War, in particular).

There might be some other stretchy ones, but those seem to me sufficiently likely.

Germany was one of my stretch ones, because I thought to myself, well they weren't communist. But then, of course, East Germany, so yeah...

Between Spy, War and Germany what's your order preference.

I think I like Spy best, but I'm now considering maybe Germany over War.

So War or Germany next?

I think I'm now leaning Germany, but fine with either.

Let’s try disease

If that is correct, then soul 

My other guesses for Roosevelt would be genius or fair, both those are really opinions of his persona, and I’ve never talked 20th century American politics with Eevee, so not sure...

Game seems obvious

Then genius, maybe button, less certain about fair...all of these are jeopardy game centered ideas, though, not other senses of the word.

(Genius and fair could have also been Roosevelt)

Soul sucking could still be a thing

What do you think? I’ll bold game because I know we’d agree on that

Huh, I thought I sent a post earlier but I guess I didn't. I think genius is a good next pick, and I agree with button too. I guess fair makes sense, there are most likely two words that are for both Roosevelt and Jeopardy and genius seems like one, so fair could be the other.

Okay, I just reread and it looks like Awa was okay with soul earlier and we haven't talked about any other possibilities.

So, soul?

As I pm'd to EFHW while sweating your answers, it's always worrisome to give a clue about something that the guessers know better than you. I totally spaced on the famous illness. Surprisingly difficult to think of a war time ruler that's known for being fair.

I find both yours and Awaclus’ knowledge of English generally and American pop culture specifically really impressive. I know next to nothing about Finland and embarrassed by the gap. It’s really impressive.

Well, I don't know anything about countries 10x our size in Africa or Asia. It's very different with the cultural hegemony US has. Finland is fairly inconsequential all things considered.

True, it's hard to escape US culture.

I will say I very much enjoyed both times I've been to Finland (the 2nd being just a few hours and just across the border from Norway on an "Aurora chase").

Earlier I gave a similar clue, and there were a couple posts in the thread teasing Awaclus about wanting to guess ketchup. Not seeing anything else obvious on the board, I think this might be a rather amusing callback.

My vote for googling continues to be: I'd be ok with googling if you honestly don't know what a word means. Maybe instead of generic google, use of merriam-webster dictionary, then?

or fine with no googling.

I think we stuck with no googling then, since that is the status quo. I have a real life dictionary, but I think online dictionaries are not “googling” so assume people use them when they don’t know what a word means.

Interesting, I always associated "googling" with any sort of looking up. As I said, I'm ok with this.

Pitol and how about Winter (Solider), from one of the Captain America movies?

Not sure if I see a more obvious 2nd one.

Organ seems good.

Not sure about #2, maybe Turkey (since they have them?).

I think I might like Winter as our 2nd, unless you have a better Brain suggestion.

I'm not sure if I'd say common, but if you're a fan of the Marvel movies, I'd think so.

Plus, i don't see anything else really fitting for soldier.

I've never heard brick head, maybe rocks for brains? But still like turkey a little better there.

Especially if it were rock and organ, you could do something like OPERA or MUSIC.

Thanks.

So I think I still like Turkey best.

I do see that Sound and Pitch are still there, so that could have scared away a clue like Opera / Music if it were Rock.

I thought one of the games involved collecting stones, but that isn't rocks, so... I also wonder if that doesn't go with the red "brain" clue

The choices are brick, london, yard, shadow, rock, pitch, sound

All the games have sound. Most involve a dungeon of some sort so shadow.

I have no idea. Other Zelda's are the good with and Fitzgerald. That is probably all of my limited Zelda knowledge.

Plot, shot and China seem somewhat likely, but they can't all be the answer. What do you think?

I wouldn't feel comfortable guessing between China and Mexico for the geographic route (hell, even New York has had some pretty famous ones).

Yet, the word being plural does seem to imply it would be one of the locations, as shot and plot would likely yield a clue in singular form.


Not really sure what to do, feel it's one of [plot/shot] and [China/Mexico] but pretty much a 50-50 inside the brackets.

So many drug shows and movies from Hollywood lately, I would probably go Mexico over China, really no preference between shot/plot. Passing on turn 1 also feels iffy...

You can choose! All the choices seem so close to each other, hope we get lucky.

Yay! Should we try for lock? I was going to suggest shot, like lock and load, but it seems like it fits assassinations, too.

Africa is good, I think the second one might be state because it's another geographical term.

I guess assassinations was for shot and one of the countries then.

It's possible we have already gotten everything the clues were meant for. I think I would avoid guessing New York because we've gotten duplicatey clues ever since we brought it up.

I guess we'll need an unlimited clue anyway, so we can guess next turn just the same if they somehow miss. I think it's a close decision between randomly guessing and passing. Whatever you want!

Post mortem:

Lock (3): Pick, Steal, Laser
Animal (3): Dog, Rabbit, Cricket
Montezuma (2): Aztec, Mexico
Photons (1): Laser

Yes, you read that correctly! I thought our word was "Steal", not Seal. So we got pretty lucky there that Seal also worked for Lock!! (If I had noticed it was Seal, of course, it could just have been another animal)

I knew Lock was a stretch for Laser, but was trying to get something for all three of those (remember, I thought it was "Steal"), and was thinking about thieves, spies, traps, locks, etc... And I figured go with it before the more obvious ones so you could use extra guesses if you wanted.

Clearly, it also helped they guessed our "State", though I planned to tie that into Aztec and Mexico with something like "Guadalajara".

Our having Mexico hurt Blue, as they had China, New York, and Africa, but were blocked from simple clues like "Locations" or "Geography".

My other ideas listed from okay to pretty weak  are New York for the ball dropping at midnight on new years eve, giant because giant ball maybe is a a thing, and spot because a a spot is like a polka dot and they are round?

Oh yeah, I've heard of the ball dropping. That could be a thing, also I guess I like spot more than giant.

So we have:
Grounds: 4
Proud: Unlimited

while Blue still has 6 more words (though clues for up to 3 of those)

Hmm, still seems a little early for a Hail Mary.

So I'm thinking that this might be that all our words work for these clues, that is, that there are 3 Proud words and 4 Grounds words. What do you think?

I still like Green and Undertaker for Grounds. Another possible (forget if we mentioned, Drill?)
For Proud? At least Eagle. Are Centaurs proud??

I'd start with Eagle -> Ground.

Oh, right! (about Eagle). Well, glad they guessed it before this clue, then.

I think Temple is another one for grounds.

Other than Proud Centaurs, stumped some on that clue.

Yay, got one for Proud.

I guess it's possible there's only 1 or 2 for Proud and this was just a way to let us get several guesses in for Grounds (for which, we probably have one more).

What do like next? More possible for Grounds are Boot (Boots on the Ground) and Hotel.

The fact that it's Grounds and not Ground leans me to Hotel over Boot or Drill. (this also was for Temple). Green and Undertaker would have worked with Ground, as well.

Do you see anything for Proud?

So many verbs!

Almost all of them can be verbs or nouns, but I tried to rank them by words that I though of the verb form first:
Model
Paste
Spot
Drill
Boot
Spring
Bill
Bug

Of course that is more than 6...
