Eric Tressler

Eric Tressler

3:11 AM

@user56656 Even if it was incorrect, you still have to say so

user56656

I don't see all of them

quartata

There's only 2

user56656

what is the third

quartata

One came after you said "2 no"

user56656

Sid

3:20 AM

24. Close to the Greeks

contact 24

Sp3000

... oh, it differs by two letter swaps, my bad

user56656

3:22 AM

contact 71

Eric Tressler

okay, RATATAT

Sp3000

Yeah that

Sorry

Deusovi

huh, I thought the Pokémon was spelled RATATTA

Eric Tressler

It could be, I don't know.

Sp3000

quartata

Sp3000

73 is not rappers

quartata

I was thinking that too

user56656

12: Nosey horse

Eric Tressler

3:25 AM

"should" is a little judgmental in that case, though

Sp3000

(Is rappers a reference to something I'm not familiar with?)

quartata

NWA

Eric Tressler

@Sp3000 NWA is a rap group

quartata

WA is "with attitude," you can guess what the N is

Sp3000

(Tweaked for a bit of clarity then)

Contact 12??

Eric Tressler

Eric Tressler

quartata

Like on the ketchup bottles

86 no

Eric Tressler

Is 86 Rubidium or Ruthenium?

quartata

86 no

user56656

Oh 14 should read pro status quo ante

I forgot a word

Eric Tressler

quartata

3:38 AM

1 was RETURN

Sp3000

Hm... not getting it sorry

user56656

Ah I couldn't remember if that was guessed. I wanted to guess releif.

quartata

I mentioned I had it capitalized for a reason

Deusovi

explain?

quartata

Frustration deals damage based on how unhappy a pokemon is, Return deals damage based on how happy it is

this is why I only do one Pokemon clue per game
