So snake and mb roof? Or do we think mail was the last clue for claim?

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.

And yes, I could see Robot being one too. So many choices…

I'm happy with CHURCH and ANTARCTICA being the next two, either order.

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.

Aha interesting. So are churches just seen as a place of piety and penitence?

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:

We're back in it, I think!

And we have one more guess...

I think I still like Pizza best. But haven't really lucked much again for Whitish ones.
