Sweet!

Just confirming Bitwise, Mail-Mi, Eevee & Galzria?

As I'm teamed with Eevee in the other game, I would prefer to be paired with either Mail-Mi or Bitwise here, just to diversify - but I'm good with anything. :D

I'll be on your team!

I would like to allow simple googling of definitions this game, if that's alright.

Cool. Need 8:

1st Clue: Doctor/Influenza
2nd Clue: Octopus/Wake
3rd Clue: Fair
Bonus Answer: Arm

Either there is a Unique answer for Clue 1 and Clue 2 remaining, or there is a shared answer for Clue 1 & 2, and a Unique answer for Clue 3 remaining.

Stick - no clues
Platypus - no clues
Cream - no clues
Cross - "Cross the Ocean"? Meh.
New York - The US hotspot for COVID. Virus maybe.
Ambulance - Sickness. Virus maybe.
Turkey - Could be a COVID reference for Virus as well, but weaker than NY. Meh.
Vacation - You might vacation to the Ocean. Destination spot?
Dance - Circus is a strong tie here... but this would require a word that fits Virus & Ocean.
Tie - no clues

So... while perhaps my favorite word here by itself is Dance - I don't really feel any word that fits Virus/Ocean together.

Bleh - let's go:

Ambulance --> Vacation

I thought Wake was your third word for plague, as in a funeral.

Turbulent (3): Bermuda, Rock, Cross

Christianity (1): Cross

Ooph - Yeah, I wasn't close on Cream.

I went with Australia because it's surrounded by Ocean. I knew Wake was my next word for Ocean, but was trying to think of ways Blue might guess another one of our words.

Title: Re: Codenames X
Post by: Galzria on April 10, 2020, 02:00:37 pm
Map seemed super risky with Tokyo as the Assassin here - but recognizing how far back you were might have made the risk seem necessary.

Mail-Mi, great job getting the 4 Oxygen words!

I was struggling with our last 3 words to do anything other than 1:1:1 for clues. Had they gotten Limousine I might’ve tried Expensive: 2... but I dunno.

Oof, not feeling great about picking between himalayas/atlantis/phoenix. i guess phoenix is most likely to be missed so i’ll go himalayas - atlantis.

A fellow Californian! (Man, I've lived here for the past... 19 years - which is just a little over half of my life - and it still feels weird to refer to myself that way).

Which part? I lived in Escondido for just over a year before moving up the coast to Silicon Valley (San Jose -> Mountain View -> San Jose (current))

I was going to make a post detailing my guesses on the board at this point - but given your last two clues (Places: 2, Billionare: 1) - I'm not entirely sure what you're looking for here, as there are reasonable answers to each still in play, and from what I can see, pretty good clues you could've given to better isolate a word (says me, not knowing the board  :D ). So I'll wait for Eevee to clinch before I post my last guesses, just in case.

Yeah, I would've missed Server regardless. I had Tap, Thumb and Switch (that was an iffy for me, but would've been on my list of guesses). I would've gotten Crane for Construction having been wrong on Jack. I was going to go to Fighter for Chicken (Chicken Fight). That would've put me at 8... but I don't think I would've guessed Server as my last one.

Indeed!

-----

Oh man, what clues did I give again? This was a long game!

Height: 3 - Himalayas, Skyscraper, Moon

Encounter: 4 - Glove, Whip, Bear, Dice --- This was definitely the clue that went wrong for us. I was trying to think of a Dungeon and Dragons reference that would lead to these four words. I hadn't considered Face when you guessed it, but I was trying to avoid "Table", as most clues I could think of would lead to "You play on a Table". I thought about "Crit" instead... but I feel like that would've just gotten Dice.

Honey: 3 - Bear, Pie, Whip --- Honey-pie is a similar term to like, sweetie-pie. Honey Whip is a common "flavor" of whipped cream.

Afters: 3 - Post, Pie, Whip --- You got the first two here. The third was intended again as Whipped Cream - something that goes with Pie/Dessert ("afters" is a term used for dessert in certain areas of the world).

Both words they got for us (Glove, Moon) I had already clue'd, so unfortunately didn't help me narrow the field all that much.

Post by: Galzria on April 18, 2020, 03:11:27 pm
Alright. I'm going to need a few. I think I want to guess at the last word, and I'm not certain I want to go "ship" here. I need to consider the clues.
Title: Re: Codenames X
Post by: Galzria on April 18, 2020, 03:24:14 pm
Weight: 3 - Scale, Light, ????
Newt: 2 - Witch, Slug
Whipped: 1 - Cream
Pier: 1 - Port

Gift word: Greece

The only connection between Weight:Greece that I can see are the Scales of Justice - Themis/Dike - but that's not exclusive to Greece, and would be a real stretch to get.

If I assume Greece is not the third word for Weight, do I see any connection between Weight:{Witch, Slug, Cream, Port}? Not really? :P

So what does that leave me to choose from?

Influenza, Finger, Tale, Web, Ship, Nurse, Undertaker, Coffee

Of those, I like Coffee the best (as something you might weigh) - except Mail-Mi could've paired Cream and Coffee together extremely easily and didn't. So not going there.

Finger? Tip the scales? Oomph. That's rough.

I could pass one more time? Blue only needs two words though, and they've gone unlimited on the past two guesses, so whatever is left can probably be paired vaguely with the last two clues, and bitwise will get to give a brand new clue for two.

Ugh.

Blah.

Don't like this at all.

Finger

So Ship is blue. Knew that from their Mountain clue, which is why I went Port over Ship. Dunno their last one though. Nurse probably would’ve been my second bottle guess.

Oops, didn't see the Nurse connection there. Would Cargo have worked as a clue?

My clues:
Rockefeller: Oil, Tower, Mine
Vietnam: Vet, Coffee, Trip
Upscale: Marble, maybe Trip, maybe Alps (a pun), maybe Ship, maybe Tower
Mountain: Alps, Mine, maybe Trip, maybe Tower
Bottle: Ship, Coffee

I would have gotten it from cargo I think. Still don't get the connection you were going for with bottle, why is it ship? (probably a language/culture barrier think, there are some references I'll just miss having grown up elsewhere)

Mole was third for face, and everything else you got, until that last turn. I was hoping Galzria would budge and clue for south so I could use "cuisine" as a clue for pan, olive and east, but no dice. I think both teams had a pretty tough set of words this game.

Damn. Rough.

I was leaning Pass for Fly, which I think was right, but decided to guess at Trasher first. Even seeing the board now... I don’t have a clue.

Post by: Galzria on May 06, 2020, 06:10:14 pm
Also a little rough with the Light clue. Spot(Light) and Day(Light) both being neutral really surprised me.
Title: Re: Codenames X
Post by: bitwise on May 06, 2020, 06:15:37 pm
I think that Trasher was cluing Temple and Doctor, both Dominion cards that trash?

I was very confused by the Spring guess for Bed and it took me over a day to realize what was going on there, oops.

My intended clues:
Octahedron: Octopus, Diamond, Face (octahedron means 8 faces)
TV: Satellite, Apple, Hotel
Bed: Hotel, River
Squirt: Ketchup, Leprechaun
Humanoid: Leprechaun, Face

Yeah, that was my bad. Trasher was indeed for Temple and Doctor. Pass was the other words for fly. If Eevee hadn't sailed through the last four, I was going to do something like Degree or PhD for Doctor and Pass.

Okay, I've got
Dog 3: Bark, Tail
Scarf 3: Hood
Mast infinite: Post, Sail

I think the rest of my clues are the last Dog and the last 2 Scarves.
Beagle is a type of dog, not bugle.

I mean, the last dog has to be farm, right? I can't see anything else that relates to it. Farm.

Sorry Mail-Mi, Scarf wasn't a great clue. I knew the timeframe the end of the game was going to come down to, and so I knew I needed a word that I could try to stretch to a 3. My line of thought was "scarfing something down" like "eating quickly" - the only food item on the board was bread, so that seemed ok - although equating plate from there was definitely a stretch.

Ah, I should have thought of that.

In! I'd rather play with just two players per side, but if we cant fill this one, I'd gladly join either of the teams in VIII.

you mind hopping in a round on VIII? Then if we get a list we can start a 3v3 and a 2v2 and make them like exclusive that way or something (so we can have both running?)
