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.

Well… we need 6, they need 2… and we can guess at 3, while they have one clue outstanding, soooo….

I’m good with Stream for our third.

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.

Microscope is certainly our first guess. I also think we should go sign second.

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!
