Mammals: 2

Jack Rudd · « **Reply #51 on:** December 18, 2019, 12:31:05 pm »

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.

She only said two - I'm guessing bat is the one she didn't think of as a mammal.

Seal

Seal is red!

Buck is red!

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

EFHW · « **Reply #59 on:** December 18, 2019, 01:11:36 pm »

How many does red need to win?

WestCoastDidds · « **Reply #60 on:** December 18, 2019, 01:24:18 pm »

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

Jack Rudd · « **Reply #61 on:** December 18, 2019, 02:51:40 pm »

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.

Iron is red

Does blue go now, or do we get to keep going?

You only get one extra guess, so it's blue's turn

A Drowned Kernel · « **Reply #66 on:** December 18, 2019, 03:09:31 pm »

Otherworldly: 4

Eevee · « **Reply #67 on:** December 18, 2019, 03:13:04 pm »

Alien, telescope for sure. Then maybe comic or novel?

You have an interesting new avatar!

I was going to request an updated grid until I realized I can just put one together myself, so here it is:

IRON     GREECE     BUCK     DISEASE    TELESCOPE
KETCHUP WATER     ALIEN     STOCK     PIN
HEAD     TABLE     POOL     EGYPT    CRANE
TICK     SCORPION     SEAL     CHARGE     BAT
KNIFE     WASHINGTON SLUG     COMIC     NOVEL

Awaclus · « **Reply #69 on:** December 18, 2019, 03:37:55 pm »

Yeah, I agree with ALIEN, telescope, comic and novel.

WestCoastDidds · « **Reply #72 on:** December 18, 2019, 03:47:42 pm »
