Faust has also been incredibly stubborn this game. In other news, it's hot in the summer, and water falls from the sky when it rains.

I deep dove the rules and couldn’t find anything to disallow it - and I told Swowl that it would be my next clue.

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.

I don't get the whip connection.

But let's guess the animals and then go from there.

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?

I thought you were connecting to archeology ie Indiana Jones. Which is kind of a tenuous connection but it's there.
