Six is enough! Once everyone checks in and re-confirms we can pick teams.

Ok, via RNG:

Red Team: jotheonah, Jimmmmm, Galzria
Blue Team: Eevee, scolapasta, Swowl

We'll cycle spymasters in that order for simplicity sake, so Eevee and I are spymasters first.

I will PM the grid.

So let's start with that: Biscuit

For the 2nd guess, I'm not as much a fan of popcorn as I wouldn't think maybe "bucket' for both that and biscuits? (though that could also lead us to maple or other words). I just don't think of popcorn as a "tray" food.

What about Cherry?

Or more out there, Tip, since you tip waiters who carry trays?

So cherry would be a great one too.
It’s just in movie theaters when you get popcorn and it overflows they normally put it in a tray. But I’m fine with either

Think we should avoid tip for now.

I think Ivory, clearly.

Saturn & Jupiter both jump out at me because of connections to Holst’s The Planets - but I don’t think either is what we’re going for here.

Maple is, I believe, a high end wood used in pianos. Although I’m not entirely sure why we would be given pianist & not piano.

Beyond that… my brain could see connections to March, Button, Shoe, Tip & Volume… but I don’t really know much about pianos or pianists, and again, not sure what the latter would clue that the former wouldn’t.

Ooh, good call with Ray Charles. That would point towards Pianist over Piano.

There’s definitely pedals on a piano - but I don’t believe they lock anything. I think they press against the strings inside to change the frequency of the vibrations. They push pads onto them I believe.

I’m definitely good with Ray next if you want to lock that.

Pianos have keys though, and keys are used on locks… so you could get there by that extrapolation even if they aren’t completely related.

Clearly SHOE. And likely BRUSH. (feel free to lock these in)

What else can you polish? Maybe SWORD or even SKI?

Plus we still have one for trayful.

Sword Ski and Lock would be the only others I see, but I like sword the most.
Still think best bet for trayful is popcorn, but again we could sit on it if we are not sure.

For the record I was going for IVORY, RAY (for Ray Charles, yes!), and MAPLE (for the Maple Leaf Rag, a famous early ragtime piano piece). I was a bit worried about The Planets, though one of them was mine. And I was very worried about VOLUME, because if I had used piano instead of pianist someone might have thought I was being very clever and referring to the volume marker piano (vs forte). So pianIST was for two reasons -- to evoke Ray Charles and to steer you away from Volume.

I was worried about volume too, which is why I said I wanted to pass without further discussion.

Yeah idk what I was thinking. Scott Joplin songs from 1899 are probably not a reliable cultural touchstone in 2021. But it was funny that Galz got to Maple a totally different way.

I see other possible connections, however I think there would’ve been better clues if they were ours. I’m not sure discussing them is an entirely good move right now.

I’m good with Silver -> Makeup, unless someone thinks Jimmm would’ve given us a different clue word for that connection.

Oh and the other trayful was volume, a trayful being a measurement of volume Completely overlooked one might want to polish a sword, not my finest game. Tried to go for shiners brushing shoes for tips, but it was tough to find a single word that didn't have the word shoe in it. I did have some big clues lined up to finish the game if some red words were eliminated, had to start with the trickiest words because of some overlaps like Jupiter/Saturn.

Oh and the other trayful was volume, a trayful being a measurement of volume Completely overlooked one might want to polish a sword, not my finest game. Tried to go for shiners brushing shoes for tips, but it was tough to find a single word that didn't have the word shoe in it. I did have some big clues lined up to finish the game if some red words were eliminated, had to start with the trickiest words because of some overlaps like Jupiter/Saturn.

When you say "a trayful being a measurement of volume" are you saying just as a concept, because you put stuff on trays? Or is that a specific definition? If so, never heard of that before.

Zoinks! A five clue!

Big Ben measures time, plus it's Big, which is a measurement
You can measure things with your fingers.
You can measure things with a pitcher. (I like this one the best)
You can measure area in square feet or square meters.
A sign sometimes gives measurements.
Sailors and meteorologists have to measure the wind.

Tough luck there - big clues can be risky like that...

Before revealing the board, I am curious to see what my team (or anyone) would have done with my other potential clues:

BUS: 2

and after:

UMBRELLA: 3

Oof!!

For bus, I’d guess “driver” and then talk out “back” and “car”

For umbrella “shower”, “wind” and then I’m not sure at all

And I definitely think steps is a measure, LaLI

Ah well. I was really struggling to get 3-clues, and at 7-5 I definitely needed to take some risks.

It seems like it was actually pretty close to working. I knew Wind and Finger were risks, and I was hoping that the conclusion would be that you use your fingers to count, not measure.

For umbrella “shower”, “wind” and then I’m not sure at all

And I definitely think steps is a measure, LaLI

So Bus would've been driver and back (trying to avoid, in fact car); but knowing car might get picked, it was my round 2, so that it could be the extra guess the next round

Umbrella would've been shower, wind, and pool (thinking about umbrellas for sun around pools). I also considered some other weather type words (rain, water), but was worried about Africa, or Wine or Pitcher. So would've depended on what words Red got before then.

It's fine if who goes first doesn't switch - I'd rather we keep our same colors. I think switching will be too confusing.

Thank you, Swowl.

I fell completely certain about lumberjack and then I’d say wood.

Then I’m less sure… roll? Mountie?

I agree with this, adding rope, and even fire, as possibles for the 3rd. Though i think i prefer roll better than either of those (or mountie).

definitely lumberjack and wood first.

i like roll or mountie for third, or could also be back (backlog is word), kind of a stretch.

My style is more aggressive, and I say we pick whichever is safest, so that if it's wrong we can try a different word with a future extra. I'd go with roll (though back isn't bad either, I could see swowl missing that connection).

I'm also fine being outvoted to pass.

Jimmmmmmm, a mountie is Canadian police.

Yeah. I'm trying to think what in particular ninjas are known for other than stealth and shurikens. Kung Fu seems the most likely I think.
Otherwise, I imagine some ninjas fight with weapons - Sword/Steel. They might Shoot you with a poison dart. They might use Rope to come in through a Window. They probably use Force. There might even me magical ninjas who use a Spell.

And then there’s Dragon, which I feel like is always showing up in Kung fu movies as like the name of an order of ninjas or whatever.

I think we start with Kung fu? Then I like sword, rope, dragon.

I love 5 clues! Though they're risky...

I'd say the first two most obvious to me are BACK and WINDOW.

Maybe FORCE or SPELL. I could also see SHOOT or TORNADO but way less confident about those.

I'd be happy for us to lock in the first two if others agree, and then maybe even SPELL (before FORCE).

I like back, window, and seal

I don’t like shoot or tornado, really. What about fire (isn’t a fire break the area that protects houses?) and tea (the British version of a coffee break, but Swowl is not British at all).

Waiting to hear from EVEE. If we don't by tomorrow, we'll lock in a couple of guesses. (or we could lock in 1 or two now, WCD, if you're happy with the first option or two).

My current guess order is:
BACK -> WINDOW -> SEAL -> SPELL -> FORCE

And I do think Tornado and Shoot are not great.

We also still have one for LOGS, but that could well be BACK...

Oh, yeah, of course that's what I meant.

For me SPELL was thinking of the breaking a curse, or maybe even the D&D way, (e.g. someone casts a charm spell, or something like that).

I'm just haven't heard FIRE break, really.

Since we managed 3 guesses, should we give Eevee another day, or guess again? (I'd rather not pass)

I'm also warming up to TEA. What would your preferred next two guesses be?

I am warming up to spell. We can try that if you want.

Go ask the next person you see if they know what a firebreak is.  If they do, lets keep it on the table.  If they don't, it goes.

OK, still no eevee...

So I walked into a nearby office (masked, of course!) and asked two people if they knew and neither one did.

So let's try SPELL.

If it works, I'm fine with whichever of TEA and FORCE you prefer.

Whew!

WCD, Preference for the next guess? I like the options we have, so prefer guessing to passing. (and getting it right, allows Swowl to only have to connect 2 words next clue)

Sorry guys! Good job team while I was gone!

I like tea the best, but I'm pretty ambivalent between tea, tornado and force.

Thank you for checking on fire for me, Scola. If it turns out to be correct it it will be in the context of the CA wildfires which is pretty specific. But we’ll let it go.

I’m having a hard time wrapping my mind around force. Force breaks something? But it’s been on your list, Scola, since the beginning so you see something there.

I’d feel way better about tea if I wasn’t so tied to a different culture. But then again, it’s not like Swowl is uncultured, and if he had a list of words and tea was on it, he’d be more likely to consider tea-break than otherwise.

Tornado seems more of a reach. Scola, you’ve been on fire this game… what’s your preference.

Excellent! Well done, team and great clue Swowl! (I'll be curious to see if we got the actual 5 you were thinking or got a little lucky).

Either way, while we could still have one for LOGS, my likely got it with BACK, and even, if not, it's best to just PASS here with 2 left.

Feel free to lock in, if no objections.

idk guys. I guess I like Force, but I'm not thrilled with any of them. I could support Fire or Mountie. To me Mountie very specifically refers to the Canadian Royal Mounted Police, not just to anyone on horseback.

yes about Mountie, but given that Police is too narrow of a meaning, i would think we should enlarge it. Let's wait for Jimmmmm making a decision

Telescope is indeed Red.

Napoleon was Mountie (you got that connection right - he’s normally pictured on a Horse, and he led the military, so there was that connection as well). Third was Cold (I’m pretty sure he crossed the Alps, which was my connection thought there).

I needed something to tie: Mountie, Cold & Dwarf.

The last Ninja was Temple, as in a place to train.

Telescope is indeed Red Blue.

Napoleon was Mountie (you got that connection right - he’s normally pictured on a Horse, and he led the military, so there was that connection as well). Third was Cold (I’m pretty sure he crossed the Alps, which was my connection thought there).

I needed something to tie: Mountie, Cold & Dwarf.

The last Ninja was Temple, as in a place to train.

Server & Bean 100%

Server -> Bean

I’m like 80% on Smoothie (They do have frozen, blended drinks so…), but I don’t see anything better and I think it’s better than pass, so I’m good to lock it in too if you are both good with it.

OK, let's see Alive things:

Animals: Kangaroo, Butterfly, Cricket
Plants: Peanut
And jobs? (since people do them): Driver, Thief, Sub(stitute)

Other related words: Heart, maybe some others but all long shots

I don't actually think Peanut or probably any of the jobs.

So I'd go with Kangaroo -> Heart -> Butterfly -> Cricket, in that order.

One you two chime in, feel free to lock in if you agree (or with a different order, though I really like Kangaroo and Heart as the first two before the other two).

I think we should go one of the animals and if it is blue do the rest of the animals then decide on heart.
We did not get "animals 3" though, which is deterring.

You seem to cover most of everything else pasta. Not a huge fan of the profession concept though.

Only thing I see you don't mention is WAGON - i.e. a mafia wagon, so you are alive?

I think HEART -> then the three animals is the way to go. If heart is wrong, then we can pretty surely know it is the three animals and something else and take it from there. If heart is correct, then it is probably the three animals. Or it is at least some of them.

I agree with swowl, first the animals -and then heart. I think if one of the animals was not blue this clue could have been deferred until later hoping the board clears up. Also agree that cricket is the likeliest animal to not be blue.

BUTTERFLY

I'd still rather Heart before Cricket, but don't feel strongly enough, if you both prefer the other direction.

i.e. if it it were ALIVE:1, i'd be sure it was heart over cricket.

(I do think it is these 4, so in the end won't really matter)

I’m more if it’s one animal then it is all of them. So i think we got it here bc i don’t think we get that hint if cricket is blue and heart is not.
If it is, it just cannot be red. So it’s all good with this order :)

I don’t like the following from this list and would probably remove them from consideration:

Driver

France
Whistle
Peanut

That leaves us:

Piano (Marriage)
Charge (Starbucks)
Circle (Marriage)
Sub (Starbucks)
Knot (Marriage)
Wagon (Marriage)
Smoothie (Starbucks)

I think Knot is ours for sure, so we have 2-of-3 left for Starbucks, and 1-of-3 left for Marriage after removing Knot.

Let’s just knock Knot out now.

From there:

I think I like…

Sub > Smoothie > Charge for Starbucks. I would be good with either of the first two as our next guess, and then evaluate our final guess option this turn.

So we have left:

1 Starbucks in {Charge, Sub}
1 Marriage in {Circle, Piano, Wagon}

I think my preferred order of guesses (we only get one more this round) would go:

Sub > Circle = Wagon > Piano = Charge

But I could easily be talked away from that.

Marriage (3): Wedding, ****, ****
Starbucks (3): Server, ****, ****

Driver: Limo Driver for a Wedding/Marriage
Piano: Decoration or Music at a Wedding/Marriage
Blind: -
Jam: Could be some association with Starbucks
Rust: -
South: -
Charge: You’re charged for a coffee at Starbucks.
France: Maybe a Marriage destination.
Circle: Marriage Band/Ring
Whistle: Could be a cultural thing for Marriages here, but I’m not aware of one.
Sub: You might sub oat milk for whole milk at Starbucks (or other things)
Snow: -
Knot: Tie the Knot/Get Married
Wagon: “Hitch the Wagon” is a saying for getting married.
Peanut: Same as Whistle. Might be a connection I’m unaware of in another culture.
Thief: -
Smoothie: You get Frappuccino’s from Starbucks.

I don’t like the following from this list and would probably remove them from consideration:

Driver
Jam
France
Whistle
Peanut

That leaves us:

Piano (Marriage)
Charge (Starbucks)
Circle (Marriage)
Sub (Starbucks)
Knot (Marriage)
Wagon (Marriage)
Smoothie (Starbucks)

I think Knot is ours for sure, so we have 2-of-3 left for Starbucks, and 1-of-3 left for Marriage after removing Knot.

After Knot & Smoothie were removed, we have 1 outstanding Starbucks Word clued, and 1 outstanding Marriage Word clued.

For Starbucks, the options would be between {Charge, Sub}
For Marriage, the options would be between {Circle, Piano, Wagon}

I think the strongest guess I think we have is {Sub}. It’s in the smaller subset, and I like it more than {Charge}.

After that, I think {Circle, Wagon} are about equal in terms of possibly being correct for Marriage.

I think {Piano} for Marriage, and {Charge} for Starbucks are the weakest of the options.

Although of someone were to like {Charge} more than {Sub} for Starbucks, it has the advantage of being a 50/50 compared to guessing at the last Marriage.

Which ultimately leads me to strongly preferring {Sub} - because if we’re wrong, we know it’s {Charge}, and LL only needs to figure out how to reclue the last Marriage word.

If we guess are a Marriage word & are wrong, LL needs to hope we come up correctly on two different remaining 50/50’s, or he’ll need to consider how to reclue two different words.

charge could be a clue for marriage as well -- the officiant gives the couple a charge to take care of each other.

idk, I'm good with sub. Let's try it.

I have a slight rule question. Can I give a two-word clue? In the version I played it's one word only, but if it's for example something that is called by two words, like name or a time period or something?

And when in doubt (if it's a legitimate hyphenated or otherwise legal word), you can check the other spymaster.

Yeah, France does also come to mind. But wouldn't the clue then be something like MARSEILLES (which is in the South of France)? or even just GEOGRAPHY?... i.e why specifically LATITUDES, and does the plural matter?

Is there some some with Latitudes in it?

I was thinking France would be cannes or something also yeah. So, maybe not that.

I think WAVE/CIRCLE is the choice we have here unless someone else has another connection they they think of.

another option may be to pass.
We are at 6/8 with 1 out for Latitude.
They are 4/9 with 1 out for Marriage and 1 out for Starbucks. That is 6/9 clued.

They would have to be able to tie together a 3 clue and also get both the others they have outstanding next turn, or leave us with a 2 clue lay up.

Might be good to pass here if we cannot decide. Especially because if we guess a red it becomes significantly easier for their clue giver to give a -1 clue for 4 rather than tie together 5 with a -2 clue.

Peanut (for peanut butter) and Jam seem obvious.

France I think is likely  -- French Dip is a sandwich and people get married in Paris a lot I think?

Maybe #4 is charge? Like you charge for a sandwich?

Peanut & Sandwich for sure.

I’m curious if LL is aware of Infinity guesses… that is, I’m worried that there might be 3 Sandwich, but he knew we needed a number of at least 4 to guess at 5.

I dunno.

Since {Sub} was wrong, I’m comfortable enough with {Charge} for the final Starbucks. Could also be a Sandwich clue.

That would put us at 3. I still don’t like {France} for Marriage, although it *is* the “City of Love”. However - I *do* think it’s ok for Sandwich…

But the problem is that leaves us needing 1 still. So either {Charge} isn’t Starbucks… (and then what is?), or we consider a final guess for Marriage.

I dunno.

Fair. Was waiting for Jimmmm to come in, but honestly if it’s not Peanut -> Jam we probably lose anyway.

Jimmmmm can comment more on future guesses when he gets here.

I think we go Charge next. It's the only option I can see for the remaining Starbucks, and could be the overlap with Sandwich.

Marriage could be any of Driver, Piano, Circle or Wagon. I still like Piano; I guess I'm thinking of on-screen weddings, where it cuts and the piano/organ is what immediately gives away that it's cut to the wedding.

I can't think what the last Sandwich could be. Are French sandwiches a thing?

Hmm, I'm not sure what to make if this clue.

We only have two left and we know one of them fits LATITUDES.

So if this clue is for 2, WCD would've just said Musical: 2. But it were just for the one non Latitudes, we could have had Musical:1.

Which now makes me think that the two remaining words:
a) can't be easily clued together, so only 1 musical
b) but our last word is not ANY of the one we were thinking already for Latitudes

Which would mean we should guess 1 for Musical, and then 🤷‍♂️, maybe something that is Latitudes but not any we had previously suggested. Honestly I don't know.

For Musical, the most obvious seems PIANO, then WHISTLE.
Or if you're thinking Broadway or Disney, there are many others:
France: setting for something like Les Mis or Phantom
Snow: from Frozen
Thief: also Les Mis.
Circle: Lion King (Circle of Life)

My guess, is it's none of those, and most likely Piano. But, like I said if that is BLUE, not sure what to do after that.

Do you either of you see the logic behind the infinity clue? (Sorry WCD if I'm missing something obvious)

k
1) 100% didds goes 2 if it is a 2-clue. Infinity means musical has a tie into exactly 1 word that has not been clued. The remaining word is Latitudes.
2) Musical is either piano or whistle. Now this could be me getting into my own head, but I wanna say if it was piano we would of got "instrument"... but also if it was whistle... we would of got like "lips" or something. I think Piano is best.
3) Latitudes I think is

The main problem I have is that they have 1 out for Marriage still. And I think that likely has to be 1/2 of Piano and Circle. By that logic we cannot be Piano and Circle... which would be my favorite guess.

I think the play is to go for musical first? It could still be WAVE for latitude.

I am down for whatever though.
It has to be one of piano/whistle and it has to be one of Circle/Wave/France.

maybe circle is best to start. hope for the best and then if we are right we go from there.

But then why not just do:

Musical: 1 (if the 2nd is just our remaining latitudes). Why infinity?

I also agree if the idea was to just just us to piano, then there are better clues for Piano, that would not also make us think Whistle (and vice versa).

So I remain completely confused.

What if she meant Musical:0 and the idea is we should skip all the musical related words!! Aaack!

I think it's super unlikely the clue would be Musical if Piano wasn't one of our words.

Does feel like we are missing a connection somewhere, though.

OK hold on I just ran this and because of the over lap we are kind of win or go home here so I am just gonna put it all on the table and we gotta go from there I think.
Pasta's point about Musical:1 vs Musical: infinite is driving me to this, but it is a very solid point.

No that is stupid actually if we somehow go neutral I do not want those thoughts out.

Let us simplify this. WCD knows Piano is on the board. There is no way we get musical as the hint if piano is not the hint right? I mean just take it at that. We can come up for connections to others, but all of them have better hints. And yes, we could of got a better hint for piano... but how do we get Musical without it being piano?

Open to more thoughts, but at this point, for those reasons... I am fine with someone locking piano and then us iso-ing from there.

So I do not think it can be musical related unless it is also Latitudes related. We still have an outstanding Latitudes, so I think it has to be Latitudes related.

I am actually gonna double back there and say it could be WAVE. That would technically hit both Musical and Latitude.... but then we would of gotten a 2 clue for musical.

fuck man idk lol

Simplest answer is normally the correct one. I think it is just Circle. What you all think?

Sorry for my delay.

I really think infinity means it is not circle. (problem is I don't have a better guess in mind)

The only other thought I have is that they still need 3, so would pass even be an option? Probably not since they do have clues for 2 of those, and eventually they'll get it. Though would they guess circle? :)

(I also imagine that WCD going infinity means she wants us not to pass)

So if that's what both of you want to guess circle, then go for it, and 🤞

I think the purpose of infinity was to NOT clue a number.
She didn’t have 2 for musical, but she did have 1. She did not want to do a number (or even 0, which may deter us from musical stuff maybe)

Now I have no idea if it is actually circle. But i am really confident we are looking for exactly and only our last latitude clue here.

Our options are realistically Circle France Wave.

They need Starbucks 1 - have a theory, but none of our words
They need Marriage 1 - yeah that’s the one that sucks
They need 2 for Sandwich - Probably something that is not circle and then maybe circle lol - but yeah.

Idk what else i like better than circle

Yayyy. Gj!

Ok just wanna say this though - in case it was intended, I believe we are not supposed to use the numbers as part of the clue. Not sure on that, but Idk if we are technically supposed to be clueing like “infinite” as the number into the clue.

It went straight over my head lol so no harm at least here, but just so we establish it for future games :)

Yeah, while technically an illegal reference as the intended clue:

A) The reference played no impact on the decisions of the guesses
&
B) Circle IS defensible as a Musical Clue (music being sung in Rounds).

My thought, which I had expressed to Swowl after he guessed Circle, was that Infinity was used here to express that the second word COULD be tied to “Musical”, but was NOT the obvious “2” clue of Whistle - that is, the clue said “Look for another Musical connection that isn’t the obvious” - which would’ve possibly indicated either Circle or Wave.

For us, we have 3 left - I’m assuming France (French Press (coffee/Starbucks), City of Love (Marriage), French Dip (Sandwich)) was one. Wagon probably for Marriage as well (Hitch the Wagon)… and I’m not sure on the third.

In all reality, the infinity was a straight up mistake. I was seeing if I could make the symbol and hit post instead of preview. I was on my phone with the tiny buttons. I planned on emailing LaLight when I got to my office, but in the meantime pasta had posted and it was all about the infinity so I knew it would t be fair to retract it.

Only in the course of y’all talking about it did I realize that a circle was infinite. But it totally is.

I was hoping you’d get circles from latitudes plural vs. singular since latitudes are circles around the earth.

When we had circle, piano, and south left I thought about singalong, line-dance, or some thing like that but the damn whistle was still out there and I don’t know how to make sure it was southern enough.

I planned on emailing LaLight when I got to my office, but in the meantime pasta had posted and it was all about the infinity so I knew it would t be fair to retract it.

Only in the course of y’all talking about it did I realize that a circle was infinite. But it totally is.

I was hoping you’d get circles from latitudes plural vs. singular since latitudes are circles around the earth.

When we had circle, piano, and south left I thought about singalong, line-dance, or some thing like that but the damn whistle was still out there and I don’t know how to make sure it was southern enough.

Ha! All that confusion for just a mistake! That's funny.

I knew latitudes was plural for a reason! I meant to post that, but think I forgot... I think it was a great clue - only reason we kipped the 2nd guess, was because of the worry that it was for marriage.

Squash, Bark and Grass all seem somewhat Autumny; I'm not sure if Squash is an Autumn vegetable.

Then there's Spirit, Witch and Death for the Halloween connection.

Summer Squash is a man actual thing, but Squash in general are generally an Autumnpp Fruit.

My initial 3 looking at the board had been Spirit, Witch & Squash…

But then why not Halloween or Pumpkin? I guess Joth would skip Halloween to avoid Death, which almost certainly means that isn’t one of ours. Maybe he didn’t think Pumpkin would lead to Spirit or Witch?

I don’t know. Are Bark and Grass strong connections? Neither jumped out at me but I’m worried that maybe I’ve just got Halloween on the mind and maybe Joth was trying to steer away from it.

Peanut coffee?!! Have you had it? Is it good? I’ll say that you had a much harder word list. Three animals was a big help for us.

So that’s…

Grass: Jim, LL
Witch: Galz, LL
Squash: Galz, Jim
Bark: Jim
Spirit: Galz
Sleep: LL

I’m good dropping Spirit off for now. I think our clue would’ve been more Halloween related if he wanted us to go there (*unless Death is Assassin).

Let’s start with Squash -> Grass and then evaluate.

bucket list travel location for me. well, more specifically Rio.
But Copa is in Rio. Rio is in Brazil. So, Brazil is a pretty solid guess.

Unfortunately, outside of that, don't know too many specifics on it. Rio is east cost SA so maybe East? Argument could be made for WAVE as well.

Mmmm….pasta is talking about the bar in the song (Barry Manilow FTW!) and Swowl and I are talking about the beach area in Rio. It’s just north of Ipanema (bossanova > manilow every day!). My roommate from college was from Brazil…

The line is “the hottest spot north of Havana”, I’m pretty sure. This literally requires me singing the song. Damn you Scola!

I owe y’all a beer if I’m wrong. But I feel super confident about Brazil. Cuba isn’t a choice, so I’m not feeling much tension there.

OK, cool - I'm sure it can be both a beach area in Rio and a club in Cuba (OH, or maybe it's actually Miami since it's North of Havana, that would make sense).

So Brazil should be good. I feel like if the others were more specifically Rio related, the clue could have just been RIO.

So if it is not EAST or WAVE then I got no idea.
I want to say like simply put... I like EAST over WAVE. However, if it were to be EAST over WAVE... IDK why we wouldn't just get rio or something like Pasta said.

Either way, I am 100% fine with either, because
1) Don't think either is Red.
2) We can then shelf it if it is grey until the end in case we are totally off and either get a crossover or we already have it.

Driver for sure. Could probably just lock that in.

Helicopter and Nail at a quick glance would be decent second guesses - but will look at better word combinations later.

Glad they gave us a word back!

While I really like the idea of Helicopter being the other Screw, I think Nail is a better choice here.

And yeah, I think we should do Witch after that for another Autumn - at least it lets us know where Joth's head was at (and again, if it's Red, I think we were clued Autumn to stay AWAY from Death/Spirit). I would be ok considering Bark as the third... although I think we're a ways off from guessing it and we might get clued back in on a later turn.

And then I think we can look for a bit of a stretch here - we went second so these are potentially our last 3 and i don’t think we have overlap.

I'm happy with JOCKEY

Was thinking probably COLLAR

and then I like DOG

Honorable mentions: BERMUDA, SPIRIT, MOUSE

(but I don't really like any of those as much as the above, I could be convinced of spirit, if it wasn't maybe theirs)

Vacuum’s suck air, and bubbles float through the air.

Vacuum is reasonable for the last Room clue.

I feel like we were missing one Autumn clue from before - and I’m not certain we’ve seen it flip yet… but Bubbles?

It’s when you grab someone by the pack of their pads by the neck to bring them down… it’s dangerous and a 15 yard penalty, and if it’s the NFL there could be suspicions and fines. It’s super dangerous.

Oh wow! I saw the latest post was WCD and just assumed it was a "gg" post...

I'm happy that I thought of these for HORSE, though I did have COLLAR up higher too. (I didn't realize the football term; was just thinking as a synonym for bridle or something)


Anyway, yeah:

I’m assuming fall was spirit, in the name of halloween?

Copacabana is just a famous beach (that waves hit) in brazil, I didn’t consider (or know) it’s in the eastern part of the country. I really lucked out on you guys not guessing spirit for horse (for the movie). I held out on the animals hoping joth would clue for collar first, kind of funny we still hit it but not for the reason I thought we would (plan for the last three was vet: 3 if collar was gone).

I thought Bryant was an especially good clue! It took me a minute, but then it was for sure.

Was a third one for copacabana besides Brazil and waves?

I think you just misread that.
Copacabana: 2

I was planning blades: 3 as my 2nd clue (and the animal words to finish it off) for grass, helicopter and death, which I thought was nice, but team red deprived me of the chance by giving us grass.

Horse, as the clue for the other team, unfortunately made there be a 0% chance we could guess Spirit for the last Air/Autumn clue despite the strong connection.

Fall was Squash, Witch, and Spirit (going for a Halloween as someone suggested)
Room was Vacuum and Drawing (I don’t really see the association with sleep)
Air was Vacuum and Spirit, which I hoped you would guess first because I’d already clued both of them and you’d already mentioned them as answers for the other clues. Didn’t even think about bubble…

I was planning to clue Collar and Spirit with Chains or Marley or something, but then Blue team got us collar. So air was a last-minute pivot. Which obviously hurt me…

I would note that our words seemed particularly easy to connect this time. My performance was pretty weak despite the win.

There are a lot of borderline choices.

Alaska, one could Scuba there. Cave diving is a thing that happens in Cliff sides. Scuba Pilot could be a thing. And a few others I could stretch to…

But yeah, I think Sub is the most obvious, then Bay… and then probably Drop third.

Water wings could go with scuba gear?

I’m happy to start with sub and bay.

I would do cliff next, but I think I’m fine with drop.

Cool cool.

I’m like 60/40 in favor of Drop over Cliff… but could go either way.

I think it's safe to assume that unless the other team is threatening to win, no team will ever keep guessing beyond the sum of their clued numbers.

Okay… MAJOR seems on point.

WING, MOUNT, PARACHUTE, PILOT are possibilities, more distant are SADDLE and FLY

Ah, this is tricky!

Words I could see connecting with Battle are:
wing, parachute, alien, sub, pilot, saddle, heart, major, berlin, mount.

Major would be my start.

Group 1 Major/Alien
Group 2 Berlin/Turkey
Group 3 Pilot/parachute/cliff

Group 1 could be both.
Group 2 probably only one or we would of got a geography clue
Group 3 Probably only one or we would of got a base jumping/skydiving clue.

I think major is safe for sure. And i wanna look back over it really quick.

Instinct says Major then Pilot

I agree with major and pilot.

Alien is meh. But not terrible.

I do not think about Berlin or Turkey in terms of notable battles, so I think it can't be one of those because how could we distinguish? Unless he was thinking about Turkey as a bird instead of a place. In which case, Berlin has the edge.

I like parachute. Clearly associated with battle.  Cliff, not so much.

So, I think my list is Major, Pilot, Parachute, and then probably Alien?

D'oh! Oh well. I knew it was a risky, but I really thought you'd go with Berlin first and was hoping for Alien (or Mount). I also thought if you got 3 and passed, my next clue was going to be:
HANGER: 2 with hopes you'd get Cliff and Laundry and realize parachute couldn't be ours or I would've gone HANGER:3 (maybe I should've gone HANGER first)

There is a famous Battle of Berlin. Maybe WAR would've been a better choice

I really didn't like having GOLDILOCKS as one of our words...

My first two guesses would’ve been Berlin, then Alien - although I admit I overlooked Major. Pilot would’ve been my third, and then would’ve been torn between Mount/Parachute, with Heart in consideration. But obviously none would’ve come up the moment someone mentioned Major.

Hmmm…..Night Court was a show on TV forever but I’m not sure how present that is in pop culture memories.

Lots of Worms are night crawlers

But I’m cool with vampire being the first guess.

Definitely VAMPIRE. - I mean this is a Dominion Forum and Vampire is a NIGHT card, after all.

I also thought of Night Court, but not sure if Swowl would be aware of it (though there is also an upcoming revival Night Court too).

worm for Nightcrawler is not bad either.

I also could see Tale - as in the Arabian Nights or bedtime stories; Casino, feels like a night time thing (unless your an addicted octogenarian :( ); Jupiter - in the night sky

But those would all be better if it was Night:4 or 5.

For Night 2, I think I do like Court the best (partially because for Vampire and Worm, I think BLOOD might've been a better clue)

I feel like if it was Pizza and Salad then "Food" would have been much clearer. I think Goat is a strong contender for being known for eating anything.

I think Eat is meant to emphasize food as opposed to drink, whereas food alone might suggest the general category of food that includes beverages. So it's meant to exclude tea.

I dunno I would never pick Tea over Pizza or Salad for Food. But I think it's safe to assume neither one is blue. Maybe we start there and look at Goat if we hit a neutral. I'd probably start with Salad, as Pizza/Goat could be Cheese or Meat or something.

I just worry that it's a big can of worms.

I mean literally worms are also known for eating through things, and Dune is very much in the cultural milieu right now with it's giant-mouthed worms. Whales are famous for how much they eat. Like, I would not clue Goat and Pizza with eat with all those other possibilities on the board. But I might clue Pizza and Salad that way, knowing that with only 2 in the clue my team would stop at the most obvious options.

Definitely Leather.

Box is good too. At first I was thinking Glovebox but then wondered why the clue was plural. BUT there's also boxing gloves, of course.

Until I saw that, I was thinking maybe WHIP, since you might wear gloves using one.

WCD, feel free to lock in Leather for sure, and Box if you like it 2nd.

Spine seems like a gimme.

After that…

Well a tailbone is a thing but tail =/= tale and that might break a rule.

I think that fan and whip might be things you would find in dinosaur skeletons.

Goats and whales have bones

Dice used to be made of bone I think, so there’s a tenuous connection to Casino.

dice are literally called bones in Russian :D but I don't think it is that. Spine for sure, I think it's drill, because bone drilling is an actual medical procedure, and yeah, maybe whale. Nothing else seems remotely possible.

Also there's a tv series called Bones, but I know next to nothing about it

We'll go Spine at least.

I agree that Drill and Whale are our next best bets.

Of those, i like Jupiter.

But my top two would be:
Casino - spin a roulette wheel
Fan - spinning blades

Also worth mentioning volume, a dial that can spin. But i doubt it's that.

Spin grace or spinning grace (?) is not even an expression I’m familiar with.

My only concern is that if it was jupiter, wouldn’t spinning or rotating be a more natural clue?

yeah, that is not an expression. I was more thinking abut how a spin while dancing or skating is graceful.

For Jupiter the better clue is rotate, but that wouldn't get us to fan.

I'm going to channel my inner Swowl here and say, I'm like 99% sure our 2nd word is CASINO.

I mean it was the first thing that jumped to me, more than fan. Spin is so associated with wheels and roulette wheels in casinos, specifically. (I think it could also be for slot machines, too, maybe)

I do think rotate could have gotten us fan as well (and would not quite have that same association with roulette). Or eevee's other thought of spinning. With either of those, I would say Jupiter; with SPIN, it's gotta be Casino.

This suggests to me that there's a word we discussed that Galz didn't consider for his previous clue, and also that we were on the right track. So I think Whale is one.

The other ones we mentioned are Whip and Goat (not counting Tale).

I'd say the original clue was for Spine (obvious), Goat and Whale (they have bones), and then the reclue was confirmation of Whip, which is the only other word we mentioned which is still unknown.

Well, I wasn't originally. Howeve, had they not guessed Casino for me, my gameplan based on your conversations had been to give the clue "Bones: 4" this time.

Yes, the original 3 were Spine, Whale and Goat. I didn't really make the strong connection to Whip or Casino (although as soon as Bones -> Dice -> Casino was brought up I cursed myself because Casino was my struggle word), but you all put the connections out there with almost no other connecting options. Since you guessed Drill (neutral), and Swowl's team removed Fan (blue) ... there was almost no risk in re-cluing to Bones.

I was very happy with the opportunity to play such a unique clue. While a team isn't allowed to direct their Codemaster (you can't say... "If it's Grape, code purple next round"), the codemaster is often (and usefully) influenced by the thought processes of their team. For example, if Grape is the assassin and my team is thinking "Tomato or Grape (even though I want Onion), I very well might clue "Fruit: 0" the following round.

re: whip it's kind of a bad connection. Like some sauropods are often described as having whip-like tails. And I associate dinosaurs with bones. But like, looking at it in retrospect I was like... how did I even get there?

Sorry I was having problems tying things together on that board.

Ah, I forgot. I should have pushed back on Casino! What was the other spin? The other night?

Makeup is obvious. And then I think genie (think I Dream of Jeannie). And maybe sloth? Not literal mascara but they have that look.

I would go makeup & Queen first.

Pocket Mascara could be a thing. Not really solid on a third, honestly.

I just don’t really understand it. I mean, I see where you’re thought process is with I Dream of Jeannie & the eyelash flutter … it just doesn’t really say mascara to me. But I dunno. It’s early game and probably worth guessing a third if the first two are correct.

Not sure yet on the third. Genie seems a fairly loose connection. Spot and Hide could be seen as connected to Makeup.

yeah legit my first clue was for Vampire and Jupiter (I did not think worm would get there so shame on me).
then leather/box you nailed.
Then yall talked about it so much I tried to tie fan and jupiter figuting you would get worm.
if we got another turn I was gonna go with Storyteller or something hoping post for "after", tale for story, and grace for "idk royal people are in a lot of stories and nothing else makes sense lol"

I agree with these 4. I do see several creature adjacent words but clearly it makes sense to go with the actual creatures.

I'd start with Elephant then Sloth first; probably save Genie for last.

But ok with any order.

I agree with those 4 - I think it has to be the animals though, and then it could be genie. so I think genie last, but EV you can lock in whatever I am fine any way with those 4.

I'm thinking Sling (as in used to throw stones) and Washer (ie washing machine). Potentially Whip. I guess you could Spin on the Spot.

Oh, Tornado for Mascara! As in, "eye" of the storm. Maybe Stream, as in tears Stream down your face? Making your Mascara run?

Washer is good, for sure.

I think Tornado is the other Spin, instead of Sling or Whip (although I see the possible connection those could have).

If Tornado (“Eye” -> “Mascara”) is indeed a second answer for Mascara, we would still need one more.

I’m hesitant to go for it here though - if the other team can win next turn it won’t matter, and if they can’t, we can see more words taken off the board.

The problem I’m having is that there are a lot of possible options without anything really strong jumping out. Three of the suggested answers in the first round belonged to the other team!

So I’m seeing:

Pocket (it’s small, fits in a pocket, could be carried around in a pocket for quick application, and I’m not sure, but “Pocket Mascara” might be a thing)

Spot (like blotch, or an area that needs touching up)

Stream (Mascara can run, mimicking a “stream”)

And possibly even Point or Hide…

Only 2, hmmm?

SLINGs and Arrows is something... (am expression or maybe a TV show?)
Arrows POINT
They point to SPOTS
CRUSADERS used arrows
SAILs care about wind direction (this one is surely a stretch)

I think I like POINT best, and then I'd vote for SLING (but am a little wary there with SPIN...)

Sling would be my first guess as well if I had to make one, definitely not against going for it. I think there's some chance we hit red or assassin too though.

On the bright (?) side, it hit a word they were already clued for, so it could've been worse.

It's from Shakespeare, from the famous Hamlet monologue (To Be or Not to Be). Also the name of a very funny Canadian TV show about the theater.

I knew it! At least I was right about something - even though it was red. (maybe we should've passed and let red team stress about it - oh well)

And yeah, I think I was aware of the TV show as well. (though have not watched)

Pocket seems obvious (ie pickpocket).

Hide seems likely - either hiding yourself or hiding your loot.

Ring seems possible, as something valuable a thief might target.

Crusader maybe.

weird that LaLight didn't give us an infinite clue, given this is likely our last turn. Now we're only allowed three guesses. Feels like we probably can't win.

Jimmmm I think I agree with yours, in your order.

But if the first two work, we should switch to a Mascara guess, probably stream.

Microscope for the first

I'll admit I'm not exactly sure what pathology means (I know it on the context of the pathology of a disease). It should also match arrow (as I don't think Microscope quite does), so maybe something like spot or sign?

We know we have an outstanding for Arrow. Those could be [Spot, Ring, Sign, Crusader, Sail].
We know that Pathology needs to hit Arrow. Unless someone knows another defn of Pathology (yay for House MD) it is just like researching diseases.

Words for Pathology would be...
Microscope - obvious connection
Spot - Liver spot, to spot a symptom, etc.
Sign - a symptom
Ring - eh... I liked this the best earlier, but Idk how ring ties into pathology.
Crusader - I guess there could of been a disease during the crusades


OK there is that.
Microscope does not need to match Arrow. We were only missing one on Arrow. And there is no way we get this clue and not microscope.
The second word though (the Arrow word) absolutely yes has to hit both Pathology and Arrow.

Someone check my logic, but I think that leaves us at Microscope -> Spot/Sign.

Personally I think Microscope->Sign, but I am gonna go read the game really fast to check on that.

Actually... I am pretty hard set on this.
We should go Microscope->Sign.
Explaining would be bad for us at this point in case I am wrong. But I am pretty sure that is where we are at.

Yay!
Run a swim school. When the lady instructors come in for shifts early morning after a long night out and forget to take off their mascara they tease each other by calling one and other "racoons" because of the rings around their eyes.

racoon eyes = ring for mascara
The closest thing to mascara left other than ring was SPOT.
figured that they did not clue a word that could overlap a blue word on the first clue out.

good job everyone!

I'm sorry guys, there were definitely some leaps on my part. Mascara was Makeup, Spot as in Ink spot and Hide as in hide tears. Spin was Sling and Tornado, Thief was Hode and Pocket, correctly, but I had Whip, Grass and freaking Battleship and I didn't see anything that would fit :(

I have heard it before, yes. I have the unforunate tendecy of not looking at the red list when I am making my clues.

So, I had point, sign, and microscope left.  A sign that points...an arrow!  And didn't think to look at how it could have been their word. When Swowl started talking about how an arrow points to a spot, I was like OH NO! Not spot, not spot!

Definitely Newton/Apple first.

I think Sink is a better match to Gravity, but Hit fits the Newton narrative. I think I'd lean towards Sink.

Woah is right! :)

Let's see, some possible words:

Tattoo, Model, Bubble, Change, Pumpkin, Kiwi, Road, America, Salt, Wheel, Shadow. Water

of those, my top 3 to start with would be:

Bubble -> Water -> Wheel

(for water, among other things there's the recent movie, the Shape of Water)

Also ran: kiwi and pumpkin

I don’t see water, road, tattoo, America, or salt, really.

I meant to sit i also like shape.

The shape of water is Guillermo del Toro movie that win best picture a few years ago.

The others i agree were definitely stretchy, but it is a 5 clue.

Enjoy your parties! I'm actually on a plane to Miami as we speak.

Shape is the clue.

I know “shape of water” but it is much lower on my list than things where the shape is notable.

Miami! How great! I hope it’s warm and sunny and there are many fruity cocktails. I am quite certain Galz and Swan are in the midst of many cocktails, fruity or no. I’m leaving for Santa Fe in a few hours. It’s going to be cold, but the good news is that a. I got a new hat and b. Bourbon keeps you warm.

Meant to said shadow not shape.

Miami is good so far, definitely warmer then Boston! (Though I'm actually a fan of the cold). Will be trying out there cocktails soon...

Sante Fe sounds great, still on my list to visit.

I looked with fresh eyes, and came up with: Bubble, wheel, pumpkin, model. Which was exactly the same as my first list except pumpkin had moved up. So maybe my fresh eyes aren’t so fresh. :/

No go's - Sink, Groom, Viking, Easter, Kiwi, Embassy, Salt, Smuggler, Atlantis, Farm, Staff

That leaves:
Tattoo - shapes drawn on body
Model - Like a model you build
Pumpkin - I don't get this one, but it is on didds list :)
Road - like when you build a road?
America - like "these people helped shape america"
Wheel - a shape
Story - to shape a story, like to build it

So yeah... I would say Wheel for sure. Fine with that.

But then honestly my favorite 4 and 5 is Story and Tattoo.

Lots of possibilities.

Viking, Sink and Model all seem obvious. So does Water, although that could be a possibility for Shape. There are other possibilities too, but I think we go for those first three.

I think Sink, for sure. And almost certainly Viking. I'm not sure if we want to pass after two to wait and see if they pick out Water for one of their Shape words though... because it would honestly be in my top 3 easily if I wasn't concerned with it being one of theirs.

Yahoo! Do we want to try one of the Shape ones?

We got shadow, bubble, and they guessed model for me. :) that leaves two more…. We could do water or tattoo… or pass. What do y’all think?

So we either got hinted 6-7 (depending on if Story was an overlap).

Oh wait... I mean I think I still like Tattoo the best, but also "Change" like to change your shape. that could be a contender also.
Fine with Tattoo though. And I will concede to water, I just have never heard of the reference.

also to note on easter. Would make more sense we got a 2 clue to leave a 2 clue (no overlap), vs 2 clue to leave a 3 clue (with overlap).

Not saying we go for easter, just keep it in mind.

Blue:
Change 5: Shadow, Bubble, *Model*, *Story*
Myth 2: Atlantis, *Story*
Carved 2:


Red:
Gravity 3: Newton, Apple, Hit
Ship 3: Sink, Viking, *Model*
Eggs 2: Easter, Farm


So whatever, if we assume Model AND Story both were intended for our Change clue... we still need one that matches change (while both matching Carved). Which is hard to do lol.

Looks like Didds was probably right on Pumpkin? or at least one of them is for sure pumpkin. second one could be Groom (to carve slopes in skiing), Staff (creation of a staff), Road (creation of Roads), or my fave is still tattoo.

What yall think?

One correction to Swowl list…the clue was Shape, not change.

We have:
Shape (3/5): shadow, bubble, (model)
Myth (2/2): Atlantis, story
No clue: (farm)

I don’t think far  could have been shape. So, we need two carveds that could also fit shape.

I’m thinking pumpkin and then water (which carves), salt (can be carved), or staff (a stick of wood that can be carved) tattoo is more of a stretch. It is made of shapes, but it isn’t really carved. A pumpkin is carved and is a shape. Pumpkin-shaped is definitely a thing.

I know scola will want water, but Swowl has never heard of the shape of water. I can see it for the 5-clue super stretch. Tattoo is a carved stretch, but not as much of a shape stretch.

I don’t know anything except I’m sure about Pumpkin.

I am warming up to tattoo.

I woke up thinking about Water, but don’t see it with carved, in the last tense. Water can carve, or carves, but I’m not sure it is ever carved.

(And now carve has lost all meaning)

What about staff. Does it work with shape to y’all? That is the second place to tattoo, I think. I just looked at the list again, and I’m more pro-tattoo than I was before.

OK also we can do it this way.
We have a confirmed flip on Pumpkin (lol)... so... feel free to correct me if I am wrong here but...

Pumpkin + Tattoo = Carve is good. Maybe Decorate or something would work instead, but is more vague.
Pumpkin + Staff = I like carve reference, but I also like it for Tattoo, and I like the Shape link way better for Tattoo.
Pumpkin + Smuggler = So... like maybe? Like in a violent fashion for Smuggler, but is bottom list of possibilities imo.

Pumpkin + Groom = skiing reference for carve, all I got.
Pumpkin + Salt = someone said possible, but I am saying nope. the clear clue would be SEEDS for this.
Pumpkin + Water = I get how this could be a thing. But like, we would for sure of gotten "carves" instead of "carved" as didds pointed out.

Pumpkin + Kiwi = nope.
Pumpkin + Embassy = nope.
Pumpkin + Road =  just going with nope.
Pumpkin + America = nope.
 
I think we should do Tattoo.
Outvoted, I will concede to Staff because I am not gonna argue :)
Yall have to convince me that anything else has merit.

I am pretty sure it is Tattoo...

Red goes first
SINKBUBBLEEASTERAMERICASHADOW
APPLEVIKINGKIWISALTSTORY
TATTOOCHANGEEMBASSYNEWTONATLANTIS
GROOMPUMPKINHITWHEELFARM
MODELSTAFFROADSMUGGLERWATER

Full board.

Our last two were Smuggler and Salt.

I really thought ship would get Smuggler and I thought eggs would get salt.

Kiwi being the assassin was way worse than I expected, because it’s a bird and a fruit and a nationality, so I worried about it being picked for egg as well as for something like “imports” which I was strongly considering.

Idk, hard round. After the easy Gravity clue.

Apple - an apple a day keeps the doctor away
Cell - as in cell health
Bicycle - healthy to do
Soul - health of ones soul?
Tick - Lyme deses

Sticker - you get stickers sometimes when you are a kid after a doc appointment?
Peanut - people are commonly allergic

Ambulance
Apple
Cell Soul

Apart from the ones swowl mentioned, could also see cone (more from a vet perspective, but animal health is health too) or undertaker (one is needed when your health ultimately fails) or mercury (used in thermometers in the old days). Could even be genie, for health would be a common wish. Don't really like bicycle, because dance fits equally well, and tick and undertaker feel a step too far too. I'd prob guess the first 4 I mentioned and pass until more information if all are right, so many options on the back end.

Glass - for the glass slipper in Cinderella
Dance - fairy tales often feature a ball
Crown - fairy tales usually feature princes and princesses
Apple - features in Snow White
Genie - like in Aladdin
Dwarf - like in Snow White
Bridge - are the Billy Goats Gruff a fairy tale?

Cases could also be made for army, cloak, wagon, and soul.

Let's see. Dwarf seems like the safest bet? Maybe Dwarf, Crown, Apple, and Genie?

without looking at your list first, I marked Crown, Dance, Wagon, Cloak, Genie, Soul, Dwarf

My problem in general with this game and why I quit initially was that I have less cultural knowledge than most, e.g. I know less about specific fairytales.

Soul is a bit cynical but if you interpret the clue not as "look for things that appear in fairytales" but just "things that aren't real", then mathematically inclined people could choose soul.

Wagon was more something I broadly associate with fairytales, but not very strongly, definitely not an early pick

Agree with Drawf -> Crown as first two and probably dance third

Maybe because of their clue we should skip it. At least for now.

I think Genie is pretty safe. I'd say Dwarf-Crown-Genie-Dance.

I think Glass & Slipper are the next best two…

I think Apple is the strongest third, but dislike it because of their clue. Likewise, I feel the same about Dance.

I think Glass is safest next - but if you both want Dance we can do that.

I don't really have a take on glass, depends on how well known the fairytale is. I only vaguely remember having heard of it at all

The Glass Slipper would be from Cinderella, who left it at the Ball while running out as the clock struck midnight (changing her back into her normal appearance from being a Princess). The Prince then took the slipper and tried it on the feet of all the women in the land until he finally found Cinderella.

“Glass Slipper” is synonyms with “Cinderella”.

Why guitar over tuba? I would associate tuba with loud voices more.

It's probably not both tuba and guitar but exactly one, or the clue would have been instrument: 2. Dance also feels like there'd be an easier clue like . So I would think that the second volume is related to some other meaning of the word than the loudness of sound, but I can't find it.

But let’s try Apple first

Kangaroo, Wagon are probably the safest two.

Bicycle seems the next most natural to me, as you’re likely to encounter roadkill, avoid roadkill, or potentially cause roadkill.

Fourth feels pretty open to me. Undertaker, certainly. Pit, possibly. Sticker, possibly. Bridge?, possibly.

Now a problem is that we still have 3 things left to guess, but probably won't get 3 more turns. Too bad the mises were both blue rather than neutral

I typed up this whole big train of though thing which ended up pretty simply lol

We got FIRE 3 with 3 clues left. I was going over how
Glass could be Health (raise your glass to good health)
Army could be Health (solgiers are healthy)
Cone could be both..
... etc etc.

It doesn't matter. We got Fire 3.
So either we have one overlap word, or we have none... but either way it is a Fire related term (or we would of got Fire 2). I am assuming Pit was organic and ARMY was the overlap... and the last one is Mercury. I think they got our second VOLUME clue with GLASS for us.

The only outlier is STICKER, but around here that is actually called a Poker so I am not huge on that.
I like Mercury for sure. The only argument to be made is that they still need 3. However, and we should not talk about this, but i am pretty sure I know what those 3 are as they have all been clued... so they get to take a "dial it in turn" here if we do not get it.
So I am all for going for it :)

Alright, so there are 9 things we need to guess. We have 3/4 on Fairytale (Dwarf/Genie/Crown), and 2/4 on Roadkill (Kangaroo/Wagon).

I think this means Jimm wants us to guess Peanut, which is clearly the guess for butter, and then go ahead with the 3 we are still missing.

Peanut > Dance > Undertaker > Bridge I'd say. If we had been totally off track with these guesses, probably Jimmm would have done something riskier than giving a clue that only fits one word.

scola and I decided I wasn't allowed to remind you. I considered posting the updated board after Peanut (along with the "Blue goes first" message), but decided that wasn't okay either (ie posting the board mid-turn as a way to say "Stop and think guys").

I endorse the decision. Being punished for mistakes like this feels like it should be part of the game.

So if I hadn't messed that up, we would have known that your two first guesses overlap since Peanut wasn't part of either. That implies Bridge has to be the guess. Then it's between Undertaker and Dance, so we might actually still pick dance. Or am I missing something?

I over-relied on you avoiding the Health words (Bicycle and Dance, along with Apple).

The fourth Fairytale word was Wagon. I associated it with fairytales just as an old-fashioned method of transportation, but then realised it didn't have an overt connection the way that say Carriage did, so I later re-clued it. Glass was a pretty poor oversight.

For Roadkill, the Bridge connection was weaker than I thought (the thinking being simply that Bridges are typically Roads). The risk in my mind was between Undertaker and Bicycle. If not for the Health clue, I probably only would have clued 3 (Kangaroo, Wagon, Bridge). The Undertaker idea was that Roadkill is dead bodies and Undertakers deal with dead bodies.

For the final clue, I would have clued away from Dance if I could come up with a way. I would have clued Unsafe: 3 (Peanut, Undertaker, Bridge) if not for Tornado. But I think it would have been fine if you'd realised we only had 8 words, as there was no room for Dance.

Wild finish, gg! Nice job giving clues, scola. We could have gotten dance on our last turn too, maybe even should have. Arguably a stronger connection than mercury.

Oh wow - We survived!

It's late tonight, so I'll post a full post mortem tomorrow, but I will say now - I hope I wasn't too strict saying Jimmmmm shouldn't remind his team how many words they had left. It did occur me to some time later that he could / should post the board as a possible reminder, but I wasn't at a computer most of the day.

It looks like he thought of it too, but chose against it - too late now, but I do think that would've been ok in my mind.

It's kind of a tough one. I think if you were playing IRL you'd just say "We only have 8 words" and it would be fine. But then maybe you'd only do that if you were playing with new players and/or non-gamers. Online is a bit different because all the information is there for you and you have plenty of time to review it; but on the other hand because it takes place over multiple days it's kind of understandable that you'd forget things. I think given that most or all of us have played plenty of times, it probably is the responsibility of the guessers to keep track of this sort of thing.

I nearly did post the board, but I didn't want to open a can of worms of spymasters posting the board at specific times to communicate things to the guessers.

I did delay giving the Peanut result a bit to at least allow Galz to chime in first.

oh we weren't the starting team

scola and I decided I wasn't allowed to remind you. I considered posting the updated board after Peanut (along with the "Blue goes first" message), but decided that wasn't okay either (ie posting the board mid-turn as a way to say "Stop and think guys").

Clearly the correct decision, and all blame there lies on us. I honestly never considered the volume of words and was more focused on the individual clues - which early on doesn’t impact much but towards the end I should’ve been more cognizant of the implications.

That said… (I’m going to post this without checking) - the clue was Fairytale: 4, yeah? Crown, Dwarf & Genie? What was 4? Even if I didn’t talk them into Glass, they were going Dance… both were Blue. We didn’t really have a 4th after that. Bridge? Undertaker?

Yeah, I've realised that my wavelength wasn't just "Things in fairytales", it was "Things in fairytales that are also not common in modern life", which is why I overlooked Glass, Bridge and to some extent Dance.

A fairy tale, fairytale, wonder tale, magic tale, fairy story or Märchen is an instance of European folklore genre that takes the form of a short story.

Can also be spelled as one, so it was legal.

And it definitely means one thing, so I think it's completely within the spirit of the game. Also is only one word in German (just a unique word, nothing about fairies).

I can totally see myself saying “alright y’all let’s go this! Yep more words” and then giving the clue. In fact, I probably have done that. I don’t think of it as an infraction. Perhaps I am too lax?

Agreed. Also it can be a single word with a hyphen as an adjective, e.g. a fairy-tale wedding.

EBYOP

I do prefer to be more strict about what code masters can say (e.g. I even try to be careful with making sure to use the same punctuation each time, e.g. "Dance is blue." vs "Dance is blue!" as I feel that could imply that the guess was the word I was thinking, and not just a word of our team's color. But I know that's me being too strict and don't care much of other do.

In this case, though, Jimmmm had already given the Peanut clue and saw that which (four) words his team was thinking of guessing. At that point it seemed like it would be too much info, because it would give the team info that one of the (first three) words they were thinking was wrong.

Post mortem:

HEALTH (5):  Ambulance, Apple, Soul, Bicycle, Dance
VOLUME (2): Cone, Pit
FIRE (3): Pit, Dance, Army

For my first clue, I debated between HEALTH and HEALTHY, not sure it would've made a difference. I was a little worried about cell, but I figured it might be your 4th or later guess. I was excited when Eevee said something about not if bicycle then dance (or the other way), especially when you later learned that bicycle was blue. But by then I think you convinced yourselves that Cone was a HEALTH word - that had never even occurred to me.

So then the challenge was getting Cone and Pit. The key was to link these two words, because Cone seemed hard to connect to anything else, and I figured I could handle what was left after (it helped that they got GLASS, though I think that could have fit under my FIRE clue). I don't think this was a good clue, because of the instruments but I hoped you'd somehow think in terms of space (which you did for Cone, yay). I also considered things like, FILL, but worried about Wagon. After the fact it realized I had the perfect clue for these in PENDULUM (the Pit and the Pendulum by Poe, and Pendulums often make a conical shape, plus nothing else really seemed like it would be even close).

Lastly, they got Bicycle for us, leaving us with the last 3 words. For a while I considered TRENCHES for Army and Pit, but a) I was worried you might still go Bridge or even Tornado there and b) it did look like you thought you were done with HEALTH, so would guess a 2nd volume word instead of Dance. So I felt I had to clue all three and this was the best I could come up with. Yes, Dance was like Fire Dancers, but also the way flames dance around. I actually was more worried that you wouldn't see the Army connection, so great job there, Eevee.

To be clear, I was saying I don't expect quite that level of strictness from others! And true, if you consistently do use the "!". So that's fair.

Not sure why Musketeer, but I would include Maracas... both are found in a mariachi band.

Also a guitar is technically a box.

But above all of those is Axe, a very common slang term for a guitar.

So I would vote Axe, Band, Maracas

I've never heard the slang, but I'll take your word for it. Still would like it after Band, though.

Forget Musketeer.

Box is very cute. I don't think Galz expects us to draw that connection, though.

So Band -> Axe -> Beat I'd say.

funny that you don’t mention any of my too three, haha.

i wasn’t aware of the brand or that those balcony pots are called planters, those seem like two for sure.

why net or marble? i thought eden because garden -> planting, anchor because you plant it on the seafloor or bee because they they help polluting plants, but none of those seem great. i might not be of much help here seeing how i had never seen the word our clue is in my life, so you guys can pick whatever order.

I thought a planter could be made from marble or covered with a net. But again, feels like a reach.

Planters has this mascot that is a snazzy dressed peanut man with a monocle, top hat, and cane. Very ritzy! Ha! And very American, I’m guessing.

Aw man! I sae the clue and immediately saw PEANUT, especially in the plural. But have been out and not fully able to post.

I didn't catch BOX but yeah, that's an obviously good 2nd guess.

After that?

I think I like EDEN best, also for the garden connection. And BEE after that.

When I played, one of the players, whenever she was spymaster, kept giving clues for two things by composing two independent concepts. Litereaturepackaging was the funniest one. (We played in German where composing things is more normal, but that one sounds about equally silly in both languages.)

We were playing pictures, and this woman was trying to clue like two pictures with food in them and two with military themes. So she said rations. And her husband (and partner) did not get that she was trying to clue two different concepts by clueing their overlap. He was like very earnestly looking for things directly related to rations (which of course, there were none). And all of us on the other team immediately saw what she was going for.

I was thinking Aztec and musketeer, but i guess we've already made our guesses... Kidding of course!

If they're correct we can go back to the first clue. Could planets be made from tin? I think i still prefer bee.

Musketeer and Aztec? I couldn't tell you for sure what kind of weapons the Aztecs, but I assume they had some kind of swords.

Superhero is also a possibility. Force is also there, either for talking about an army as a Force, or for a Star Wars connection. Seems unlikely compared to the others though.

Force - a warrior is a mighty force
aztec - historical and stuff
marble - fight over that marble

Pretty easy aztec I think. The other two are weak and I don't like superhero. I think of that as specifically not just using swords.

I mean they both shoot and Bond is a typical hero character. That seems to me like fewer than 3 inferential steps, which is what you need for Force

Idk so if I hear some ancient culture, I immediately think of swordsmen, whereas if I hear superhero, I immediately think of anything but swordsmen, but maybe that's just me. so I'm sort of okay with Superhero, but I maintain that the starwars connection is too complex

RIKERS: 2

I was thinking Aztec and musketeer, but i guess we've already made our guesses... Kidding of course!

If they're correct we can go back to the first clue. Could planets be made from tin? I think i still prefer bee.

I *really* wanted to reclue right back to “Rikers” after this. I didn’t see anything in the roles that said I couldn’t…. But I wasn’t sure and figured Swordsman would get there too (which it did!).

Great job Team!

NEW YORKTRIPSUPERHERORAILLOCK
BOXVACATIONAZTECBEATFORCE
KNOTBANDCRASHNETMUSKETEER
BEEWEDDINGMARACASANCHORMARBLE
AXEPEANUTJAILTINEDEN

That is the full grid.

My attempt at Planters was (good job) Peanut and Box. I 100% still do not understand where Bee came from, so mb on that bc yall were pretty confident on that lol. And Eden was honestly just an oversight, I do see how that is connected. The third one was TIN - i.e. peanuts normally come in a tin at the store.

And then obviously you got Rikers 2 perfect.
Because Bee was an oversight, I did not think of how Galz was gonna get Aztec, Musketeer and Bee.... so I figured I would get another turn.

Plan was to go like RING: 3 figuring you would get Wedding and Box instantly and then hoping marble ring would be the must take for the win or go home :P

I think you can use your best judgement and the spirit of the rule. I have looked up whether something is one word or not, and don't think it counts.

I agree with WCD and joth on following the spirit of the rule. WCD's example of confirming 1 word vs 2 is a good one.

One example I'll give where I decided it was against the spirit was when I was considering pendulum (for cone and pit). I thought it wasn't right to confirm that pendulums do make conical shapes.

My point is - use your best judgement.

Armor gun and ?

I was thinking PISTOL (which is what I assume you meant by gun), FILM, and STAR.

The Bodyguard is a FILM (with Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston); they often are protecting STARs, and they often carry PISTOLs.

ARMOR was my 4th pick, but I did like the other 3 better. (and 5th I guess would be something like BOMB or maybe CODE)

I would go pistol - armor - film (haven't heard of the film, but sounds reasonable).

Why not armor scola? Thinking literally, armor is something guarding your body.

It's just that I like STAR better.

I think being bodyguard and not something else clearly points to either FILM or STAR or both. But maybe if it were both (and pistol) there are better clues for those three - some movie star associated with guns or something.

While armor guards your body, I do think bodyguard has a specific meaning of a person. They do serve as armor for their client though, and do often wear body armor themselves (I presume).

Sounds like we all agree on PISTOL.

I'd prefer FILM 2nd and then ARMOR or STAR third.

film or star would be fine 3rd picks imo.

However, I do really think it is extremely unlikely that we got this clue if Armor is not one of the words. I feel like it is both star and film, that is just a slam dunk set up for like the easiest movie hint ever and it would not get burnt as the first clue out

Curry seems likely. I like the sausage link connection, but I'm slightly afraid link is theirs -- Link is Princess Zelda's bodyguard in Breath of the Wild.

Still, Curry-Calf-Link seems like the best bet to me.

For the third, my slight leaning would probably be Roll. Are sausage rolls are thing for you?
Link seems reasonable, but is not a term I would really use so I can't comment.

Happy to defer to Galz if you have a high level of confidence in Crow.

I just think it's the strongest connection of our choices - Like, I would've gone with it over Curry (although Curry would've been my third preference).

Beyond the saying "Eat Crow" - Crow is actually not a horrible meat - it's generally safe to consume and is like eating any other dark meat bird (I mean, Duck/Turkey will have a lot MORE meat - but it's fairly similar). It's also extremely commonly eaten in a lot of fantasy stories around campfires (like rat).

When I look at the board for connections to "Meat", I just think Calf & Crow are the most obvious two to me.

-----

That said, "Meat Roll" might be a thing that I'm not super familiar with. It actually sounds like a thing that would be popular in the UK and not in the US. I think "Meat Pie" certainly is - and it could be another phrase for the same.

In Australia we have sausage rolls, which along with party pies (smaller versions of the classic Aussie meat pie) are often used as party food. I'm not sure if they're just an Australian thing or if other countries have them as well.

So we're pretty split between {Link (Sausage), Crow (Meat), and Roll (Sausage/Meat)}. Honestly I'm good with any of them - we don't NEED to guess here (both teams have 2 words guessed with 1 outstanding), but I feel like we should - it's early enough and hopefully at worst we pull a Neutral.

My only hesitancy with Link would be the bodyguard connection to Zelda (which for sure some of us would make more naturally than others here) - although I think it's more likely that their last word is Star than Link.

Hmm not sure if I love any of these (but if they're right, this is an amazing clue):

String BEAN
String BIKINI
and FINGER (since you wrap String around it?)

Could also see PARACHUTE (related to cord, maybe?)

Not sure I see other connections, but theres likely something I'm missing.

We also still have STAR (or something else) from before.

code is written in strings yeah?

BEAN -> BIKINI

And yeah, String class is key in most coding. Didn't even think of that. Not sure I love it here, though.

I do like going back to STAR for our 3rd guess.

String could possibly be TRIP.

I am not really understanding the reasoning for STAR here. Like if they are the Star of the Film.... Would think we normally get film as blue there.

That being said I have never seen the movie and I got no better ideas lol so I am down for whatever.

For String I alos wonder about DRESS.

The reason behind STAR is not just the movie, just that bodyguards generally guard important people, like movie stars.

so we need 9 total.
we have *assumption* 6 unique clues (out of 9 needed) - of which we are now 5/6
Red has none outstanding, has 3/8.

Unless someone is pretty certain on the last STRING, I would say this is a pass. If we hit a neutral then whatever, but if we happen to be off and hit a red... any potential lead we may have after their second turn here pretty much goes bye bye.

We need 4, they need 5, but they'll have 2 turns to our 1 (after this last guess or pass). So I feel we should try to guess.

So far we've mentioned:

CODE, DRESS, PARACHUTE, FINGER, TRIP as possible.

I think we should guess. Dress not great, it's more straps. I guess same with Parachute, though I could see it.

Not convinced on Trip.

I'm warming up to Code. Still like Finger for some reason.

My finger logic - isn't tying a string around your finger a thing people do in order to remember things?

I think it's more likely we'll get two more turns even if we pass. Hitting red would be so bad that I'd play it safe, but if you guys want to guess finger I think that's a fine option too.

I like Dress more than Trip specifically because it was not Ruin(s).

You can ruin your Figure.

Also a possibility, but I would put it behind Dress. I would be a coin flip between it and Trip if Dress were incorrect.

I guess I just don't associate dress with ruin, like at all. Like sure you can ruin a dress, but you can also ruin a shed, a parachute, or a candle.

I suppose if we are going the ruin(s) route we could also consider Cross, like a Cross to mark a grave.

Shed, parachute & candle aren’t everyday items. Yeah, you *could* ruin them (although in most of those cases “destroy” or “break” would be words I would associate before “Ruin”), but a Dress, like Pants or a Shirt, can be ruined by spilling coffee or tea, or by ripping, or by getting muddy etc. “My [article of clothing] is ruined!” is a pretty common thing to hear. “My shed/candle/parachute is ruined!” isn’t really.

I don't love either option, or any other.

I'll take Galz' point that Ruin without an s is typically a verb, and it's not uncommon to talk about ruining clothing, particularly nice clothing. I also feel like Bomb and Dress are more difficult to connect than Bomb and Trip. Dress

Oh, yes! Definitely! 3/13 chance of randomly guessing correctly! 4/13 of guessing one of theirs, and 1/13 of hitting Assassin… and even if we follow logic that suggests there’s no association to “Meat” or “Ruin” in our remaining words, and balance that against the Assassin likely having no connection to any of their words… we’re still not looking at great odds … with very little upside!

Unlikely but FINGER could also be for skating. I don't know if it's just from a movie (I can't recall which right now) or if it was a real fad - those little skateboards that you would "skate" with your fingers. Man, what was the movie? I want to say Napoleon Dynamite, but I don't think that's it. But it was a movie like that. I'll google it once we finish this round, for sure.

Thinking of skateboards too, I now like ROLL even more.

I had one of those finger skateboards as a kid, haha. But I think it's such a fringe thing it's an unlikely clue.

Roll seems to be our consensus

Shed? I mean, it’s the only Building on the list.

But “Building Code” is also quite possible.

I DON’T think it’s anything else on the list … but I’m honestly torn 50/50 between those two. I’ll go with whatever you guys feel is best here. The problem is that I can think of “1” words I would use for both Shed and for Code before “Building” 😅.

OK, once again, I'm pretty sure on one guess, but not surer after.

so we need exactly 2 for SEALING.
and then 1 that is not SEALING.
But we for sure have overlap between something... assuming we have been all clued out at this point.


Mail could be sealing. I guess. like you seal an envelope - maybe Mail was also for string? IDK gonna take another look.

agree with candle though.

The thing is, if neither of our Sealing words have overlap with String and Skating, then our last word should fit both. And it seems less likely, but not impossible, that the Skating clue was for FIGURE and a previously clued word.

In that scenario, our 2nd sealing word should match one of the two...

Then again, MAIL isn't bad. But doesn't seem to fit String or Skating.

Finger did (barely?) fit String and Skating. So maybe, CANDLE, MAIL, and FINGER? But meh, I don't love it.

I do think we should lock in CANDLE.

Skating term (i think lol) to like Air Mail? isn't that like a huge jump or something? I could be totally wrong on that.

That being said. I think Mail would be my fave next.... but I would also like a the morning to look at the board once more.

I think mail has to be the second sealing clue.
like you have to seal mail you send and it is the only one that stands out.

I think we should go with Mail.

If that's right, I do think TRIP or FINGER last, and I think TRIP is better.

After that it gets more difficult, bc we have to determine what the overlap is. But the remainder would be

String - Code, Trip, Finger
Skating - Trip, maybe Finger

less sure on all this, especially because trip could be replaced with mail for string and then I would have no clue at all.

My biggest concern for trip of finger is that I feel the skating clue would've been for two new words.

Mail String, I guess could be a thing - in the context of email?

Is Cross skating related? Or maybe Alps? (since it's cold? and skiing/skating)

bodyguard: 3 - pistol, armor, star

string: 3 - bikini, bean,
skating: 2 - figure,

sealing 2: candle, mail

So, I agree with pasta that it would be so strange to not have skating be a full clue.
However, I also believe that Trip works good for both string or skating... so I think I am still a Trip fan.

One of the reasons is the order.

You could go SEALING first, get those 2, then Skating ands we'd know for sure there was an overlap.

right, but it is progressive. like the winning play is clue larger early so if they could only link 2 for SEALING then BODYGUARD is a better early play.

Like I get your point. But we got a 3 clue, got it... then got a 3 clue... went 2/3... then got a 2 clue... pretty sure at this point that the SEALING of 2 MUST BE EITHER

1. Sealing has an overlap with either String or Skating
2. Sealing is unique and the overlap is within String and Skating

If 1. Then Mail and String for Sealing and either of them. Then Trip, Code, Finger.
if 2. Then Trip is the play.

LCD is obviously TRIP.
I have removed finger for myself personally at this point, as fingers need to be bandaged, or fingers are used to rub in sealing components, etc... so it would of been a 3 clue I think. Especially from didds.

TLDR; I think the overlap was Mail, and I think that Trip is better. Again, I am open to someone arguing something else. But, not to be a Dbag about it... there needs to be a better reason.

My point about order was specifically with just the last two turns - Skating and Sealing, not the previous 3 worded clues (though there are reasons to not always start with the biggest, that's besides the point here).

With 3 words left, why not first give the clue that has two independent words, so when you gives the 2nd clue, it's DEFINTE there's the overlap?

There is a (small) argument to be made for PASS here. In that Red had 2 words left and gave a clue for only 1 last turn. It's possible that they don't have a good clue for their last two words. It's also possible that they do, but it was blocked by Candle and  Mail.

SO it seems, we have:
Swowl wants to guess TRIP.
Eeevee prefers FINGER (barely).

So I get to be the tiebreaker? Unless I prefer a 3rd word, due to my logic above.

And I don't think I do, enough.

My vote is TRIP. Not locking in, in case either of you want to first consider Passing. But if not, then go ahead and lock in.

I think pass would be a rough go here. Joth chose to go with a one-clue on the last one, which to me means "let's not risk the 2 clue on this one, take the lay up and let them mess up". So I think they have it if they get it. Could be wrong and he just has a crazy hard board... but that is my thought.

So Eevee, it is your call - pass or guess?

I’ll grant the connection here is most clearly Link & Code - and I’m not really thinking we shouldn’t guess those (in the absence of better options) —- however my biggest concern if those ARE our words is that this turn was unnecessary:

‘Building’ could’ve been (2) to clue ‘Code’. Every building built anywhere is built to local city and state codes.

‘Meat’ could’ve been (4) to clue ‘Link’. We discussed Sausage Links at the time and were mostly hesitant because we were concerned about it possibly being Red for Bodyguard — but as soon as they filled that quota Link would’ve been back on the table.

Either way - again, I don’t think there’s a better set to choose from here, but I thought the concerns should be posted.

After cluing Meat, the remaining words were

Code, Shed, Bomb, Link, Dress

I wanted to do them with two clues. The only way I saw was

Ruin: Bomb & Shed
Uniform: Dress & Code & Link

But then you guys guessed Dress for Ruin, which wasn't even in the set of possible wrong guesses I had considered. Lucky that it was red, but now I had Shed, Code, Link which I didn't find a clue for. I didn't even find a way to do it with two clues because everything that fit Link & Code also fit Mail. That's why, like joth guessed, I clued Shed first, hoping for WCD to take out Mail.

Tbh I still don't really understand what makes Shed for Ruin harder to guess than Wagon for Roadkill. You blow up a shed; this creates a Ruin. You can't do it any other way. Just because it's also a verb?

You'd think that getting one word out of the way makes a clue strictly easier, but "Code" only made sense for uniform together with "dress" because well it's a dress code

Great job, Red!

String was bean, bikini, and figure.

But when we didn’t get figure I had
Figure, mail, candle, and alps.

I should have done the sealing clue for candle and mail first, so that you’d have known that those weren’t the overall word as Scola pointed out, but I really thought you’d get Alps so I wasn’t really thinking about order of the clues. Oh, well. That one is on me.

Yeah, I figured at some point our guesses hadn't exactly panned out the way you intended, despite going perfect with the results. I was just a little flabbergast that on the previous turn, Blue was on the precipice of victory despite us never missing a word and them missing TWO.

‘Meat’ could’ve been (4) to clue ‘Link’. We discussed Sausage Links at the time and were mostly hesitant because we were concerned about it possibly being Red for Bodyguard — but as soon as they filled that quota Link would’ve been back on the table.

Not something I'd know as a foreigner and strict vegetarian.

The code/building thing I may have used if it had occurred to me, but it hasn't.

And of course, completely understand that not all connections are equal and apparent to everyone! - it's always especially difficult as the code giver trying to cover as many of your words as possible without giving up enemy words in the process!

Uhh - to me, I think (if I’m understanding your thought process): A Building that has been demolished (any building), would leave a “Ruin”. I would say it leaves “Rubble”. “Ruin”, to me, has history, or gravity to it. It has importance. It’s not just a generically used term for a building that’s been destroyed.

Does that help?

I like those three, though scuba more than battleship.

Honorable mention to helicopter, air, and earth. But those are not nearly as good as the first 3.

Rats can indeed be in the garden, but EARTH is probably a safer bet. Also perhaps WORM and maybe SAND?

meh we are dumb.
Assuming these are both us we should go SAND next. def could be Hawaii with an oversight on hot sand.
If SAND is good I think Air is a gimme.

We could also go Air -> Sand... again... don't super care the order because fairly certain those are our 4 words.

our 1 mis guess plus their 3 correct means if we get all these then we are back in it to win it.
Normally would go for Sand and pass to be safe... but I think guessing all of them and having 7 on the board potential is pretty huge for us.

Unless sand (of course for Hawaii! - duh) could be both. i.e the 4th hot word too.

Which would be fine if Air is neutral.

Both of those and either TEAR, as you can tear a card in half or into pieces… or probably preferred TIME as in a Timecard that an hourly worker would clock in and out on. A dated reference, somewhat, but a solid connection nonetheless.

Let's see...

Actual animals: ROBIN, JACK (terrier)
related: RANCH, VIRUS, and maybe KUNG FU (as in Kung Fu Panda??)

I guess I like Ranch best, then robin, and ?

I like AIR (for hot) and HELICOPTER (for Hawaii) as guesses 3 and 4, though.

This is the first real forum game I’ve /in’d, even though this account goes back to the beginning of DS. I own Codenames btw. Since we presumably have a shared Dominion background, are references from that encouraged/discouraged/neutral as clues for forum Codenames?

Haha, so despite never having tasted ranch dip or dressing, I somehow thought it was spicy. I asked my girlfriend after, who informed me it definitely isn't. You guys hunting for that last nonexistent word for hot was quite painful. Hawai was for Pacific, scuba diver and torch (for tiki torches).

What are the current teams (and colors)? Red goes first this time? Looks like we just copy/paste the green cells in the Google doc? Maybe I’ll just wait for @jotheonah to get us on track :D

If I'm reading this right, you're replacing Didds.

So I think the teams would stand as:

Blue - Swowl, Eevee, vidicate, Pasta
Red - Galz, joth, Silver, Jimmm

Vidicate and Silver are up next.

Hold on force actually is first. Way of the force.
But they Columbus and bonsai are my next best guesses

Assuming I actually know what bonsai means.

So, I'm not sure if actually see any that I feel safe about.

For FORCE, are you referencing Star Wars, I could see that.

Not sure I get your other two. (bonsai is, btw, those small trees, like in Karate Kid)

The other one I see is Worm - Way of the Worm is a Dominion card, and vidicate posts frequently enough on the Dominion related forums (and asked the question about that as clues, right?)

 (alas, I don't see any other Dominion Ways, though)

I like worm - columbus, I thought of bonsai too but i’m not sure it’s actually a connection. Way of the force also doesn’t mean anything to me. So I’m ambivalent about the third guess.

I’m confident enough about Worm to get things moving.

I feel one of the eastern religions is called “the way” but I think it’s taoism not shinto. Not sure though.

Bonsai is definitely Japanese.

Can one of you explain the connection to Columbus?

OK well unless anything pops out specifically we can remove locations.
So that is NO on [berlin, Europe, brazil]

Then there are items:
Bread, Sink, Diamond, Balloon, Plastic, Beer, Orange, Stamp, Bonsai, Leaf
No      No       No           ?           no        ?       no         no     maybe, no?

Then there is the rest:
Tip - no
Fog - no
Force - Huge fan.
Locust - biblical I am not aware of?
Mud - no
Bath - no
Drop - no

K so that is (for me at least):
Force
Bonsai - remembered... it is the "way" in which you specifically cut the plant.
Others

Unless there is new info I think we go Force or we pass and circle back.

Bath -> Soul

I think I agree with Sink third, could see Mud too. I would hope at worst it would be neutral.

Bread and orange seem good.

After that, i could see beer,  leaf, Brazil (nut), tip

And we have another way still.

BREAD -> ORANGE

Let's start with those. I didn't notice STAMP originally, but definitely possible. I'd wonder though if vidicate might also on the connection and one of the others is better. But I'm likely ok with stamp for 3rd. Unless we want bonsai?

Again I'd favor a pass, but I'm ok if you guys want to guess something. I think unlikely there's been any overlap, should be one way left. Unless Orange/Bread/Stamp Way is some famous road none of us know about or something.

Plastic and Diamond I would think. Mud is possible here, and maybe we should guess it anyway since we've got one outstanding from Cleanse.

I like plastic for sure.

I’m on the fence about Diamond & Mud. If it’s both it doesn’t matter, but if it’s only one (where there’s an overlap with Cleanse) then we should do Mud first.

So I think I like confirming Mud, and then going after what should hopefully be a Red or Neutral Diamond, or we could even consider passing there knowing we can hold it in our back pocket for next turn if needed (although I’m not convinced that’s the best play).

Nice! So should we go with Brazil?

and assume the other way clue was one one of these or one of the others (Stamp, Bread, Orange)?

I'm inclined to say yes.

Tip was the Way. I’ll go over that and stuff in a post-mortem for Blue-side at some point. Looking forward to working with the field operatives in the next round!

No mistakes, but I also played it pretty safe. Not because I wanted to, I just didn't come up with any daring clues that had a chance of working. Definitely a well-deserved win for blue!

Agreed on Pupil and Magician. Jeweler feels vague to me.
Roughly I’m looking at Magician > Pupil > Model > Puppet > Jeweler > Ace
Any thoughts on Model (“model student” or the master models techniques for his/her apprentice) or Puppet (a bad teacher may treat the apprentice as their puppet)? “Ace” is quite a stretch though.

"Outstanding in his/her field" is definitely a thing.

And then I would think Ace for the second. But I might be missing something.

you can also be middling in your field, or terrible, or above average...

Ace is good, but I don’t like King - both tie to playing cards and Outstanding wouldn’t have been the clue.

There are a bunch of mediocre options for the second word though, with nothing really standing above the rest.

I would be fine going Field second. I also think Model and Parade are pretty decent second guesses.

I don't know Jimmm's background but he's good at math, so the definition of model-as-not-a-beautiful-person should be something he's aware off, and I don't think you associate "extraordinary" with that. Would rather take your guys' word on Field.

Hm then again, if you do mean the person, extraordinary is a really good fit, better than field. Maybe I don't agree with myself.

I was thinking Model as in a person, or the profession, yes.

Bleh - lol. I don’t love either, but lean Model.

I’m just trying to think if you might pair {Model, Ace} or {Field, Ace} differently than “Outstanding”.

Ehhhh - and then, I still feel like it could be 6 other things! 😆

Alright. Alright. Let’s try Field 🤞

I’m glad Field is out. I heavily associate that with military operations.
Army, obviously. Parade, second. King as an alternate, but the first two are much stronger for me.

Army

Thoughts on Parade vs King- Having served, Parade stands out to me. Would pasta be making the same connection? I’m new to the group and forum games, so can’t help there. If King, is there an obviously more fitting clue to {army, king} than “Military”? “War”? “Serve/Service”? Hmm maybe…

my main thing against parade, is that the very obvious clue (imo) would be "March".
The only other word on the board that could come close to anything March would supply would be "Football", and that is a longshot.

Also they could of gone for a more exact type link like "bastille" or something.

All in all - I think King is the play.

Lord of the Rings.

Definitely DWARF
Most likely HIMALAYA, since they go through Moria instead of through the mountains
also CAVE

last one I'd have said KING, which is probably why Jimm didn't clue it first

they also solve a riddle going in, and maybe the door is square? this is a terrible clue and it's probably not even square.

I think CANDLE could be it, since the caves are dark and they do carry torches

Also AMRY is another reason not to clue this first

Maybe "Change" since going through Moria was a change of plans? And it's Gandalf's death in Moria that leads to his change into Gandalf the White.

For second....

Robots can be big?
Football fields are large
Reindeer are big
Walrus' are freeking huge - favorite I think
Fuel is an enormous industry
Square could be like a huge town square
Parades can be enormous.... and also our consensus for last remaining for Military.


So I think then...
Saturn->Parade->X

I doubt Parade is a double clue, because if it was it would put us in a 6-6 tie with no clues on the board. So we would need a perfect 3 clue ifffff they don't get their last 2.

Also, they only have 2 left so we need to guess all three here.

Pretty sure the first 2 are solid, but for the third I am a little in the air.

Sounds good. For some reason I was thinking X before Parade, but my mind is slipping if there’s an advantage to that route. I’m on a short break, but will come back in a couple hours with more feedback.

Look at each remaining word and ask “why would this be enormous and not big, huge, large, etc.?”. See if the specific synonym of large is relevant as a clue.

Yeah, per K.I.S.S. I’m favoring Walrus as well. I was considering Football; it’s enormously popular (in all forms). Reindeer and Football are the longest words…
But yeah, Saturn, Parade, Walrus in some order.

Egads!

Sorry - Between the Holiday Weekend, running a location for one of my employees who is in Europe, and agreeing to pick up a little more work this week, life kinda got away from me for the past 5 days!

Good job team! As soon as you mentioned LotR, I recognized the connection - my brain just was drawing blank when I first saw the clue.

I would've been on-board with everything except Himalayas... which didn't quite seem to fit, but I'm glad you went with it anyway and glad I was wrong!

You are correct, thank you. I got confused when thinking back on the rules; pp. 6-7 have a few odd examples of both clever valid and invalid clues.
“Your clue must be about the meaning of the words.”

I wasn’t expecting a fictional, proper name with Moria in this game. But that was definitely an awesome job for red team.

Inclined to agree. There’s maybe some other stretches, or references I don’t get but could see existing… but I would lean Candle & Tuxedo.

Post mortem:

APPRENTICE: 3 - Pupil, Magician, Jeweler
MILITARY: 2 - Army, Parade
ENORMOUS: 2 - Saturn, Walrus
Unclued: Puppet, Glove

This was a pretty straightforward round for us. Except for the extra KING (which I new was possible, but was neutral), you got my clues perfectly. The problem, of course, is that it was not fast enough, given that they got the Moria 4. After that I was left with the choice of trying to clue the last 4 words (or a subset of them and have you guess randomly) or stay on target and hope they missed their last clue. I went went with the latter, even though I suspected something like "Romantic" might be the clue and game over.

But I couldn't think of a good way to tie 3 of the last 4 words, let alone all 4. (I briefly consider RINGS: 3 and hoped  somehow that might lead to Saturn, Glove, and Puppet, but thought Model was risky, and then still need the random WALRUS)

I did want to go ENORMOUS as my 2nd clue, but was worried Himalayas would get guessed before Walrus.

This was sort of like last game, only in reverse. Everything went smoothly for one side, but when the other team gets a perfect 4-clue, there's not much you can do.

Well done team!

The intended fourth for Moria was Candle. I hadn't considered Changed and I like the argument for it, but I think I still prefer Candle; it seems like a simpler connection - Moria is dark and that's what candles are for. All you had to know about Moria is that it's a dark Dwarf cave under a snowy mountain range. If I was to clue Moria for Change (with a different group), I would feel uneasy about the likelihood of them getting it. That Change was red was a stroke of luck, but it seems that flipping neutral would not have changed the result. Although I guess it's lucky that the unplanned 2 of Tuxedo/Candle was easy to clue.
I wasn't too worried about King, but was hoping that Army would flip early enough for the Moria clue.

For Outstanding, I knew there were other contenders, but it seemed like a safe 2 as long as someone knew the Field phrase, particularly the scarecrow joke. I was actually leaning towards Tuxedo as a third ("you look outstanding", and I was imagining a groom "standing" like a scarecrow), but I wasn't sure to what extent that was because I knew it was red, and including it seemed like an unnecessary risk given that I already had a plan for it.

The Tuxedo/Change clue initially was going to be Dressed, but I was a little concerned about Glove - it seemed plausible that you would see two types of clothing and assume it was them without considering "get changed" as a synonym for "get dressed", so I probably would have ended up going for Alteration, which seems safe enough.

This is what I love about this game, that sometimes you can get it wrong and yet get it right. I was thinking Changed was like a little in the weeds, but the more I thought about it the more I liked it.

Wow, a fiver!

Mine, Settle and Flag seem likely.
Geographical locations can be claimed, such as the South and Antarctica. I guess you could claim a spot on the Grass or in the Snow, but that seems like a bit more of a stretch.
Churches probably make claims, or you can claim something from a Roof (top).
I guess you can also claim your Mail, or claim a Dollar prize.

I just don't have the time right now. And we saw how much people weren't happy with my limited availability last game. I expect to being able to opt in on games again, sometime in July.

I like Flag, and I like Settle. I also really like Dollar in the top 3.

After those, Mine, Mail, Pupil are all good options.

And beyond those there are a lot of other decent choices. Antarctica, Ivory, South, Pizza, Roof, etc

Flag -> Settle seems unanimous.

In case it's not obvious, I'm thinking of Mine as in "It's mine!" rather than claiming a mine.

The thing with Roof is that I also consider it a symbol of ownership. I wasn't thinking of claiming something on a roof.

I’m good with ‘Mine’ next instead of Dollar - I think they’re both probably Red.

Roof is the only one I don’t really see the strong connection to - but would be fine guessing - I’m not crazy attached to any other options.

Red

Spymasters, have a PM about what’s happening here.

What do you mean?

I *think* the concern is to keep responses uniform if possible - so as to eliminate any possible telegraphing - ie. "Both Red" could be construed to mean "they're both red and words I intended in my clue", whereas "Red" could be construed to mean "this is also a red word, but wasn't one of the ones I meant to clue".

I certainly don't think there was anything intentional behind your response - but I would hazard to guess that is vidicate's concern.

Or it could genuinely just be concern over no possible confusion! That the first was clearly stating that the words were red, whereas the second response could indicate red, but could also indicate neutral - so it might not be clear!

Ok, convince me on dollar -- I'm not really seeing it.

Generally speaking, I feel like "To Claim a Dollar" or "To claim a buck" is a saying. Moreover though, I feel like a Dollar is something you would WANT to claim. And then I feel like it something someone WOULD claim "Hey, that's my dollar!".

I dunno - on a clue of 5, Dollar just jumped out to me more than most other words, and definitely fell into my top 3.

All of the above. Thanks, Galzria! I’m also of the opinion that spymasters should refrain from any discussions in the game thread mid-game, in general. Spymasters consulting one another is “best practice” instead. That’s just the kind of stickler I am :)

Nice!

Well, that puts us at 4 of 5 with some choices to make.

Relooking, I definitely like ‘Mail’ as the 5th (“Go claim your Mail”).
Silver likes ‘Roof’ as the fifth.
Jimmmmm, do you have a preference?

We could Pass. It’s always a free guess later and we can wait for some more of the board to clear. At this point we have a solid open, and we definitely DON’T want to hit one of their words.

Other reasonable options I see:

Antarctica - As a place, could be claimed.
Pizza - “That slice is mine!”, a reasonable item to claim.
Ivory - A valuable to be claimed.
Pupil - A student could be “claimed”
Rose - If there weren’t a bunch of other better options, I could see this (it’s given in things like ‘The Bachelorette’ I think? To make selections…).

I think I also like passing. A guess should be better than random, but the goal isn't to get as many words as possible, it's to maximize P(win), and with our current position, being risk-averse makes sense.

Oooh, 5 vs 5!

So, the two most obvious to me are:
IVORY and SNOW

Then things that could be white or whitish (in no particular order, so not saying these are good guesses yet):
• there is a version of PIZZA considered white pizza
• a band called white SNAKE ("Here I go again on my own...")
• MAIL is often in white envelopes
• ROSE is a color and is light
• ANTARCTICA is ice and snow and always white looking
• Moby Dick: the while WHALE
• DICE are often WHITE
• white DRAGONs are a thing in fantasy
• eyes are white, so a connection to PUPIL (though the Pupil is not the white part)


Feel free to lock in the first two, if y'all agree. I think if the rest, I like MAIL for third. Let me know if I missed any other connections.

Good summary, scola. And a lovely clue from Swowl!

My tiers:
Ivory, snow
Antarctica, mail
Whale, dice, pizza, snake


Is there some significance to clue being whitish, not white? Like, maybe the band Whitesnake is less likely because it's not really whitish in any way? Also pizza isn't really whitish, that's just white pizza. Moby Dick is the "white whale", though perhaps also whitish in color (same for the terrible tasting type pizza though, hmm).

I would go ivory -> snow -> antarctica -> mail -> dice. But it's very close after the first four. This is such a great clue, should give us a lot of information in the later rounds even if we don't get them all at once here. A problem with dice is that if you don't think about it, you might not make the connection to them usually being white. Same goes for pizza. I feel pretty good about the first four (ivory snow antarctica mail).

I think technically Ivory is whitish and not white. Though I think we'd still guess it if the clue had been white. So not sure there. That's part of why I think Rose might have a shot.

I do like Mail and Antarctica for 3 and 4, mabe, but those also fit claim so we may want to be careful.

(and pizza and snake are in my lowest tier as well). I do kind of like whale a little more though.

I’ve landed on the same 5 words as Eevee. I’m also adding Church as the buildings are often whitish. And Plastic, specifically the preponderance of it that I put in my recycle bin, is white/whitish. Other than these 7, I’m not feeling it for the rest, except maaaaybe Pupil (with the eyes, since it’s not the white part, therefore White-ish).

Snow

(Does Curry come in a white variety? Dead Grass is very pale.)

hmm, i definitely thought antarctica was most likely fifth for claim
before our clue, which gives me pause.

church is a pretty good idea too, this is tough. anyone feel strongly about the best guess for next?

Agreed that Antarctica I was thinking Claim for reasons I don’t want to publicly disclose. But it’s very Whitish also! Argh lol

For now, I’m fine with Mail, Plastic, or Antarctica for next. Even Dice. Whatever y’all want to pull the trigger on. I’m worried that a random “obvious” one like Mail will end up being a dud lol. Fingers crossed

Hmm - I have my initial thoughts, but don’t love anything here.

Silver, Jimmm, do any answers jump out to you?

I could see Pupil (student, in general, though not particular to ‘Jazz’), South (associated with New Orleans, Southern US), Snap (I picture snapping silhouettes and people playing sax in my head), Wind (not a wind instrument, but you blow into a Sax)…

But for almost all of those, why Jazz over Saxophone? I don’t know. Don’t love any of the things coming to mind for me here.

Ok, it would be wild… but it would be a connection Joth would make (I think):

Snake Jazz is a style of music played in an episode of Rick & Morty on a planet of snakes.

Yeah I really don't know about this one. There are a bunch that you could connect to music but I don't know enough to prefer any over the others.

I think Antarctica is a decent contender for the 5th Claim, due to the business around claiming land there.

is jazz parade a thing? Somehow that rings a bell.

Other than that, I think I like pupil the best, though possibly snake is better than either. Do you know that joth watches that this show?

I’m fairly confident he knows the show. I feel like I’ve seen him reference it on the boards and on Facebook - but I’m NOT confident he would expect us to know the reference.

I’m really unsure with this clue. I definitely think that Mail was our last Claim though (as I thought it was prior to the other team flipping it Red), so I don’t think we should be looking for any more claims.

Let’s guess Pupil, hope that it’s correct, then pass.

If Pupil is right, we’ll need 3 more, which includes one Jazz connection. Joth can clue us on the other two and we can still guess at the final Jazz … and hopefully there will be more of the board cleared to help guide us.

Man, we keep getting clues that point to words i thought were theirs.

In this case, PARADE, which I was sure was jazz,  but has to be celebrating, right?

After that I'm thinking CHURCH and PIZZA? May want to guess ANTARCTICA first, though (the original, "i thought was theirs, now I think it's ours")

Parade certainly.

Could robot be one? For the dance move sometimes used as a celebration after scoring in sports.

I agree antarctica must be whitish, that would be my second guess after parade.

Adding one more to your ideas- Rose. Often given to to the celebrant after a performance or victory.

Well it’s too bad they didn’t guess Parade for us, assuming it’s ours. I also thought it was theirs, partly because of another connecting word.

Parade

* Church - many celebratory events are held at churches/synagogues/mosques. Weddings and receptions, quinceneras (sp?), bar/batmitzvahs (sp?). Also one of my picks for Whitish
* Pizza - commonly served during a party (celebration)
* Rose - as stated above
I’m feeling moderately good about Church. And I like Rose over Pizza, for now.

Then, other than Church, we still have Antarctica, Plastic, and Dice for Whitish.

I vote Church as well, but didn’t want to pull the trigger yet in case any other thoughts come to mind for any of us. We’re on a roll, but I’m willing to sit on it for a bit. If you guys want to move still, then go for it.

After Church, of the remaining 5 words in my current pool (Dice, Robot, Pizza, Rose, Plastic), I’m most fond of Rose (for Celebration) and Plastic (for Whitish).

Might be a cultural difference (Finland being a very secular country), but I don't associate churches with celebrations at all.

But it of course doesn't matter if I would give the clue myself. If the team thinks it's best I say we go for it. I don't have a strong alternative I feel great about to offer.

Definitely more of an American thing - but thinking of gospel or baptist type churches. Also religious holiday celebrations like Christmas.

I like enough to lock in:

And we have one more guess...

Whitish 5
Ivory
Snow
Antarctica
Church
????

Celebration 3
Parade
Church
????
I think it's likely church was an overlap, meaning we have 1 word left for each. I'm ok with guessing pizza, it could be either (both) of the missing clues. Same goes for rose though, could go for whitish and celebration. Whale, plastic and dice only fit whitish.

Good work, team! We should definitely guess something. So many choices, and not much consensus. I like only the previous 5 words I listed, but only 2 (maybe 3) spots to guess. I’m feeling slightly better about guessing a Whitish word over a Celebration word. Mostly because I’m anxious deciding between Pizza and Rose. So my guess is either Plastic, or Pizza (I’m starting to think it’s the obvious “safe” celebration choice over Rose).

inb4 it turns out Dice was the last word the whole time

Yeah, I still like Pizza. has links to both and I can't see any reason it wouldn't at worst be neutral.

Ok, so I'd say snake has to be the clue for Jazz. Since this was the lead we didn't try, joth ought to be more desparate if it is false.

Are there any other jazz references in this stupid show?

Then, well, anything that connects to slither is not it. So not roof and probably not uh robot?

Unless slither is meant to apply to snakes, but snakes don't slither, they crawl, right? Or is it a thing to refer to that as slithering? If so all of the above doesn't apply, and we're meant to find the real thing for jazz.

My instinct is that he’s saying DON’T pick Snake. That there’s NO connection there.

I think “Jazz Grass” is another name for marijuana. So we could go Grass.

Other than that, I’m inclined to lean “South” (Music known in Southern US) and… I don’t know. So South & Grass?

….. But then what?

Uh, why? If snake was wrong, wouldn't you try another clue? Like, a 0 clue means don't use slither, hence the previous clues have to be sufficient.

So we're the starter team, which means we have 9 clues.

Claim has 5
Jazz has 2
Mail has 1 or 0 (depending on whether it's part of Claim)
Slither has 0

Joth knows that 0 means "no clues here" and that you can also clue infinity, right? If so, this means that even if we get this right, blue gets another turn.

Yeah, I know. But it's generally harder to guess things with a 0-clue, so I meant "does joth know we can also get unlimited guesses with a positive clue". Like I don't expect that we are supposed to find the ninth only in terms of what doesn't fit with slither.

Unless maybe the idea is not only "doesn't fit" but "as opposed to slither as possible?"

OK, I got you.

Anyway, I have a board/clue analysis, including what to possibly do with Slither: 0 at this stage, but then I run the risk of “alpha gamering” this shit, and ruining any victory for anyone. I’m rooting for you though. It would be pretty cool to see you guys pull it off.

I'm pretty lost with this.

I'm pretty sure Slither means don't pick Snake - I think rules-wise it has to mean that there are no red words connected to Slither.

ok, so you're saying slither is related to snake. In that case, let's see if we can eliminate everything with even a passing resemblance to slither.

ROSE
ROOF (you can slither off roofs)
SNAKE (s. above)
DRAGON
CURRY
SNAP
WHALE (very slippery animals)
GRASS (you can slip/slither on wet grass)
DICE   
PLASTIC   
ROBOT (could slither depending on how it's built)
SOUTH
WIND

That leaves

SOUTH
WIND
DRAGON
CURRY
SNAP
ROSE
DICE   
PLASTIC   

Optimistically, we could say wind for Jazz and South for Claim, which would leave

DRAGON
CURRY
SNAP
ROSE
DICE
PLASTIC

Still not enough though.

If I just had to pick the two words that seem to have the absolute weakest possible connection to slither, I'd say Curry and Rose.

Sorry - really long weekend and then spent most of yesterday getting caught up on work (opening 3 new locations to take our area from 5 to 8 in the span of 2 months has been a bit... much :P)

Anyway - I'll get my thoughts down here later today. I'm on a similar, but slightly different page than you guys right now. I've been chewing over a full game state analysis in my head - which breaks down what we have, what we need, what we've been clued, what is likely ours from the remaining set, and what is likely theirs - I think we will need to blind guess at at least one word, but I think we can make a pretty educated guess based off what was clued, and what wasn't (ie - if any leftover word has an association with a previous clue from either side, it's likely neutral or it would've been included in the count for the associated clue).

This is the unfortunate side of playing a team format, it’s sometimes very slow to wait for everyone’s input. I’d say just go for it if your team isn’t available, i’m sure they won’t mind. :)

inb4 it turns out Dice was the last word the whole time
;D

So, Dice for starters.

Wind can be random, but it’s also on my list of likely red words. (Although I was sure South was red too…)
Randomizers in Dominion are cards, perhaps with a Plastic finish.
Rose- the compass rose on a map, but I can’t really say how a magnetic compass is a randomizer, except maybe you spin it like a game of Twister. This reasoning is quite a stretch.
A Robot might be running on code or an algorithm that uses/simulates a random number generator (to do random movement, for example).

Yes. I was clueing wind (as in wind instruments) and snap (people snap along to jazz).

And then Galz made a really crazy connection to Snake, which was the assassin.

So I decided I had to burn a turn to keep you from guessing snake, which you seemed really likely to do. I hoped that after that you would guess wind and snap, both of which had been mentioned as possibilities.

The last red word was Roof, which I would have clued with Spicy for Roof and Curry if things had gone differently.

But yeah, that snake thing really screwed me up. Also I guess jazz was a bad clue. Maybe I should have done "shingle" for Snap and Roof and "fart" for Wind and Curry. But you know, I try to be a classy dude.

Like initially Galz was on the right track, so maybe "saxophone" would have been perfect. A saxophone is a wind instrument, by the way. A woodwind actually, despite not being made of wood.

Hmm - I have my initial thoughts, but don’t love anything here.

Silver, Jimmm, do any answers jump out to you?

I could see Pupil (student, in general, though not particular to ‘Jazz’), South (associated with New Orleans, Southern US), Snap (I picture snapping silhouettes and people playing sax in my head), Wind (not a wind instrument, but you blow into a Sax)…

But for almost all of those, why Jazz over Saxophone? I don’t know. Don’t love any of the things coming to mind for me here.

And I do watch Rick and Morty but I'm not like a rabid fan. It's not top of mind.

Good game though. A more or less successful 5 should have given us enough room to maneuver a bad clue, but the fact that Blue was able to counter with a successful five of their own made our missteps deadly.

It was a real roller coaster! Our side’s 5 clue crashed and burned real fast, so it definitely wasn’t a decided outcome at that point, by any means. Seriously, mid-way through the game I/we thought you guys had this one.

Your team indicating they are likely to go for the assassin pretty much forces you to go with a 0: unless you can clue every word to the end super precisely and trust your team to follow, so I
think that slither clue was definitely the right call. It wouldn’t have gotten the jazz clue either, but red seemed to have generally a pretty tough set of words here.

Welcome, fang! Good to have you. Codenames works wonderfully as a forum game—in some ways better than IRL. I see you already messed up; Red went first in the previous round. :P ;)

I hope Galzria is okay. This is the only thread he’s participated in since March, so he’s probably just busy.

I feel like I recently watched a YouTube video about Monopoly and they made a point of giving two names every time they mentioned a property. One was the names I'm used to, which I think are NYC-based, and the other sounded very British. And I know they have Cluedo instead of Clue so regionalization of classic board games is a thing. Does anyone know fang's nationality? I can't remember.

Anyway if everyone on the team approves I would be fine with Jail - Dollar

Agree with the top list.

clearly can't be: MAPLE, REINDEER, BEAR, IGLOO, because then clue could just be Canada

So I like MAPLE FIRST, then SMUGGLER... then not sure which two i the other three. I might even put FORCE up a little higer, as in "Police Force".

Ok.
So Canada vs Mounties concept.
It has to have something that makes it like police-forcey like pasta said.
Now that could be one thing, or multiple things, but like you said... Cant be exactly the 4 Canada words.

So as much as I agree with Smuggler... it could also be Force. But I like Smuggler better.

I think we go Smuggler -> Bear. (I have relatives in Canada, bear hunting is like... a huge gross thing up there)

last word I could go a lot of ways on. But probs a flip between reindeer and igloo.

OK, the easy one is THIEF. Probably HIDE? Not sure on a 3rd, but we can also go back to Mountie for
Bear as 2nd or 3rd guess.

i.e.

THIEF -> BEAR / HIDE -> HIDE / BEAR -> ?

Pilfering wasn’t safe while SMUGGLER was on the board…

THIEF, no question. (Possibly a crossover with Mounties)

SNAKE: can describe a person. One usage, in my mind, is for someone who hides/slinks in the corner planning and doing sneaky, villainous acts. Like pilfering.

HIDE is a decent option.

KISS: You can steal (pilfer) a kiss. If SNAKE isn’t one of our words, this is a decent option.

IGLOO: I’m inclined to think someone from Europe is even more likely to associate this with Canadian Mounties than I am. Nothing concrete, but a subjective gut reasoning.

BEAR/REINDEER: Which of these is the average Scandinavian (Eevee) more likely to have a specific association with Canada? I’m so tempted to web search if Reindeer are native to Eevee’s homeland (which I believe is true?), and if so then we go with Bear for sure. Otherwise I lean toward Reindeer.

Together with THIEF that is 1 too many words for Mounties, so I think we can shelf FORCE for now, but still a possibility. We need to guess as many as possible. My choices for now:

THIEF > IGLOO > HIDE > BEAR/REINDEER (whatever the consensus is)

Reindeer are definitely native to Finland.

I still prefer Bear before Igloo, maybe Swowl can break the tie.

THIEF

Swowl popped only once recently, and I thought “he’ll post something here soon”. I say we give him today and Monday to help us decide if BEAR is our next word. And the other 2 for me are still HIDE and IGLOO in some order.

Enjoy your Father’s Day, fellow dads and father-figures.

k catching up. yes thief obv gjgj. and agreed it was left off of current guess because we ofc would have to go smuggler. etc.

unfortunately, lol we did that anyways.

pilfering: (Thief) Bear, Kiss, Hide, Snake, Cat

mounties: (Maple). Here is the thing about this one. If we got a 4 clue there has to be something that clues it into Mounties right? So Maple yeah. But again if it is just igloo, and animals, why not "canada"? I think force is still a solid contender for that reason.

That being said they have 2 to go and we got a 3 clue soooo what ya gonna do... we kind of put ourselves in the sich. Our only chance is to win on the next turn so we need to be sure to iso as many as we can with this turn.

I think BEAR is #1 for sure. They steal shit all the time (bear boxes etc), and it overlaps with Mounties.

I think the final pilfering word is St. Patrick. But also not enough sure on it to fight on it, so I leave #3 pilfering alone for now.

K then back to mounties. We have (maple), probably (thief), and assuming (bear).
It may not be bear, maybe it was reindeer and they didn't wanna risk the ultra clue.... but like... I mean it just has to be igloo right?

So yeah. I haven't been around, sorries A-boot that (Mountie Joke +5 points), so I am good with whatever you all want. but

TLDR

BEAR 100% next
Then I prefer Igloo
Then if we are still here we should go back to pilfering
Then if still here Idk

Then if all that works we hope they don't get their lay up and somehow figure it out lol

Red has 3 to go, not 2. I saw you put CAT, for cat burglar. Hmmm… and ST PATRICK? I don’t know the connection there.

Man we have a long climb here.

So clearly MESS. After that maybe something like cat or cow? Plus our other clues... So back to reindeer, igloo, hide, etc.

I'd start with MESS -> REINDEER

Also, I will be very busy this weekend. I'll try to check in, but mostly just to vote as needed (no room for much more analysis). And if you don't hear from me within some reasonable time, feel free to guess without me.

I also have a busy weekend, but will check in. BEAR scared me off of REINDEER, but we probably should still do it.

Strongest contenders are HIDE, IGLOO. Then we have FORCE with Swowl’s analysis.
CAT, SNAKE, KISS as possibilities. What was the reasoning for ST PATRICK?

There is still some room for analysis- specifically any word that could have been easily combined with WHEELCHAIR under some clue is a candidate. And anything that is opposed to “Cleanup” should be avoided without good reason.
OK I need the updated table to bumped down here to further analyze “Cleanup”

Analysis of words that are likely Non-red based on how easily they could have been grouped with WHEELCHAIR:
* STAFF - like a walking stick / cane
* ROOF - possibly clued with something like “Accident”, but maybe not since that could give MESS
* FORCE - clued with a “Motion” related word
* BABY - clued with “Hospital” (maybe not that exact clue, since it could point to STAFF)
* The three remaining quadrupeds are an interesting case, and I can’t decide it it’s more likely or less likely that Red has any of the animals based on Wheelchair (4 wheels). I’m tempted to prioritize non-animal guesses over any guesses of these words (CAT and REINDEER) in the case it helps Red to snipe the win that much easier.

“Cleanup” is an interesting clue because it signals both “clean” and “messy” (needs a cleanup) themes.

For a similar reason to the above for ROOF, I’m thinking it’s not Blue either. Otherwise “Accident” could signal both MESS and ROOF now that WHEELCHAIR is claimed.

POP, the sugary beverage, needs a cleanup if spilled. (I’m on the “soda” side of the common debate, in case anyone cared.)

BABY for me is the 2nd biggest “Cleanup” word after MESS, bar none.

I have more things to say, but need to get back to work. Hopefully I’ll have a chance to get back to this sooner than later.

If THIEF was also Mounties, then we need two words for Cleanup. Otherwise, just one. We should save any 2nd guess for Cleanup for the end. Choices are BABY and ROOF (even though Accident also gives the MESS-ROOF pair).

I want to like THIEF+HIDE+CAT for Pilfering, but it seems odd to not just clue Burglar.

My suggestion:
MESS >
IGLOO >
FORCE >
{HIDE, CAT, KISS} >
{SNAKE, KISS} >
{REINDEER, STAFF} or {BABY, ROOF} >
? ? ? >
Profit!

Feel free to lock in the first guess or two, unless you find holes in my analysis.

Then I need to think more. I think that matches most of our shit though.

Guys, I’m off REINDEER at this point. My theory is that Mounties was to clue a police force specific to a location, and also I don’t think Reindeer have much to do with Canada. I could see myself using Rangers to clue Texas/Cowboy/Force but not Rattlesnake/Cactus. In other words my gut is saying Eevee could be going for things symbolic of the region and not necessarily random things that live there. My 4 or MAPLE, FORCE, STAFF, IGLOO. If I can’t sway anyone, I still ask we save REINDEER for last for other reasons previously stated.

SNAKE > KISS is also what I’ve been leaning toward, @Swowl, but then I was thinking “why not Stealing as the clue”. I have to take KISS off of the table, since the deliberate synonym signals to avoid it, in my mind. (“Stealing a kiss” is the signature expression.)

Welcome back!

I accidentally hit Post instead of Preview; I gots more to say.
I was avoiding HIDE for as long as I could, as an experiment. Pilfering is my weakest analysis, but I’ve settled back on HIDE and SNAKE (with THIEF).
Side musing: Scum 3 could have been a fun clue for THIEF/MESS/SNAKE, using different meanings of the word.

IGLOO
FORCE
HIDE
SNAKE
STAFF (REINDEER)

That’s our winning list. Feel free to rearrange and/or lock-in as many as you feel comfortable with.

This match is hilariously reminding me of Red vs Blue (of which the middle quote in my sig is from). In the show, the majority of the drama and story is centered around the blues, while the reds are usually just trying to do their own thing (often a hare-brained anti-blue plot of some kind) up until they inevitably get dragged along on the blue’s adventures.

Well, one partner has lurked a couple times since he last posted, and the other has been pretty busy since his recent appearance. I hope they don’t have any objections if I continue on soon. And with no further input I’ll be tempted to just rip off the bandage, if you get my meaning.

well definitely CAT.

Do reindeers have paws? There has to be a reason why it's pawing rather than just "paw" though.

Not your fault, man! I started alpha-gaming this round (might as well, if the team is AWOL ;D) and am reaping what I’ve sowed :D :D I suggested Igloo from the beginning, and even then it wasn’t sitting right and I had to think it over a lot.
I’m sure Eevee had IGLOO, being a bystander, as a calculated risk. It happens. It will be fun to know what’s been going through their head during all our bumbling.

Sorry i haven't been able to post. Thought I'd have more time this week (traveling). But i have been reading and ok with the guesses (maybe would've gone reindeer first, but really wouldn't have made a difference).

I'll be back next week and back to bring more active.

I am back now, i think - so should be able to be more active. Again. apologies that I misjudged how much time I would have while traveling. (I'm usually traveling for work, where it is easy (and fun) to find some time for this. Vacation travel - especially when it's a honeymoon! - is clearly different!)

Honeymoon? Congrats, bro!!

Well, we have a BABY COW here. Not sure about a 3rd, although we needed a clue of at least 3 (or 0/unlimited) to win here, so there might not actually be a third. I’m turned off of REINDEER and ROOF, because of Pawing.

There has to be a crossover. BABY can fit Cleanup, but not sure about COW. If we can figure which previous clue COW fits under, we could narrow down the remainder. (There is a chance that Eevee meant Venison, but maybe I’m the only one that mixes those two words up :D.) The only way I can think of that we still have a leftover word (COW, not previously clued) at this point is if BABY was part of Pilfering (I could see that), and THIEF was indeed part of two clues already. —leaving MESS as the only new word hinted with Cleanup. Right?? Am I making any sense lol?

Next blue team who sees this, go ahead and guess BABY (or FORCE) to get some positive momentum while we discuss the rest of the turn.

While back haven't had a chance to review old clues and guesses,

but I think we liked FORCE for Mountie?

It could also be for veal, since they are forced to live in tiny spaces.

Why STAFF?

Why STAFF?

Yes, let’s see if Swowl can get a chance to jump in. The last time he was logged in was before Eevee’s latest clue.

STAFF primarily because of this analysis.
Guys, I’m off REINDEER at this point. My theory is that Mounties was to clue a police force specific to a location, and also I don’t think Reindeer have much to do with Canada. I could see myself using Rangers to clue Texas/Cowboy/Force but not Rattlesnake/Cactus. In other words my gut is saying Eevee could be going for things symbolic of the region and not necessarily random things that live there. My 4 or MAPLE, FORCE, STAFF, IGLOO.
But with THIEF replacing IGLOO. Our wrong guesses further support my theory. STAFF is not red because of Disabled: 1. In fact the last red word has to be REINDEER; fang has been hoping we’d guess it I’m sure ;D

I agree no more waiting for swowl, but would've preferred just guessing force here, as I'm not as convinced on staff.

I hope you're right.

Oh, shit, sorry man. I just woke up and wasn’t thinking. I agree, I should’ve guessed one and let you respond to my last comment. Then again, that wouldn’t make the game any faster. And I’m pretty sure Eevee wasn’t talking only about Swowl, just saying. ;)
However it goes down, it’s gg time.

Great comeback blue team!

Cat + Reindeer was always going to be the weak point for us. But it still seemed right to leave it to last, as blue team were considering both those words and the assassin Kiss also.

And what's with St Patrick? He was suggested as an answer for both Monopoly and Pilfering! Why??
