Yeah
Alconja

Feeds
boboquack
has added
Alconja
to the
list of this room's owners
.
boboquack
I think that should cover most time zones
Alconja
such responsibility
Rubio
so responsibility. very power. much timezones. wow.
Volatility
1:05 AM
contact alconja maybe
Rubio
that seems to be missing something .. better.
Rand al'Thor
@boboquack Aren't you and Alconja in roughly the same timezone? Or am I getting you mixed up with someone else?
Contact Alconja (maybe)
boboquack
Roughly, but Alconja usually populates chat at a different time to me, I've noticed
Rubio
@Alconja passing on this. Feels like I should know it, but I'm drawing a blank.
Kinda like @Deus did a bit ago.
Volatility
bitter-sweet?
Alconja
1:07 AM
+1
Rubio
nice.
Rand al'Thor
@Volatility Yep, that was my thought too.
Rubio
@Rubio defending:
B I T T
Deusovi
Woo, one more letter!
Rubio
I wasn't anywhere near that
Deusovi
1:07 AM
Heron
Rubio

Rand al'Thor

Deusovi
Nope
Rubio

Bittern?
Deusovi

Deusovi

Rand al'Thor

Deusovi
Heroness

Rand al'Thor
1:09 AM
Wow, feels like I've unstarred more things in this room today than I ever have before.
Rubio
nice.
Rand al'Thor
contact
boboquack
Nothing standing I mean
Rubio
Bitterness
Deusovi
yep
Rubio
1:09 AM
that was pretty :)
Deusovi
Thank you!
Rand al'Thor
Yep.
Deusovi
...I'm out of words.
Rand al'Thor
Yeah, me too.
I'm almost ready to hunt online for "words beginning with BITT".
boboquack
Luckily I've still got one standing then
Rubio
1:10 AM
@boboquack Bitters? i have no idea
boboquack
+1
Rubio
lol. Another rectal pull
Rand al'Thor
@boboquack Your #1 and #2 are invalidated?
boboquack
Yeah
Volatility
heh, was just about to clue the same thing
Rubio
1:11 AM
I don't understand the color references at all
boboquack
Lemon, lime
Rubio
Oh. I see
boboquack
#1 was
bit late
Deusovi
:/
Rand al'Thor
@Rubio Would you tell us if there was a space in the middle?
boboquack
1:12 AM
#2 (I realise this was clued wrong) but
biting
Rand al'Thor
I.e. could it be "bit t[...]", or must it be "bitt[...]"?
Rubio
Of my word? It's a single word. It has to be Scrabble legal.
Rand al'Thor
Righty-ho.
Rubio
(well, excluding availability of tiles anyway)
boboquack
...
So, is it scrabble legal with tile constraints...?
Rand al'Thor
1:13 AM
Squashed vowels changed
Alconja
So what are the rules on looking up word lists??
Rand al'Thor
^ not sure if valid
stacksfiller
Word and Antonym
boboquack
Hi @stacks!
stacksfiller
You shouldn't use word lists or internet
Deusovi
1:13 AM
___.____ Beat, Core, or Runner
Rubio
Scrabble legal,
no
tile constraints.
stacksfiller
Hello!
Rand al'Thor
@Alconja No use of online tools allowed, I think.
stacksfiller
Contact for Deusovi
Deusovi
Woo!
Rubio
1:13 AM
I think you're allowed to verify your word is a word, but you can't find words by looking for them that way
Alconja
@Randal'Thor Cool. Figured, but wanted to check since I'm out of ideas.
kk
Rubio
ok sorry I fell behind
Alconja
Yeah, I think I have contact on @deus too
Rubio
meh. I'm out of time.
@Deusovi pass on this
Deusovi
D:
boboquack
1:15 AM
? dry dry
Deusovi
Stacks?
stacksfiller
BIT.TRIP
Deusovi
yep
stacksfiller
(It's a game)
Deusovi
(it's a video game, Rubio)
Rubio
1:15 AM
No wonder.
Deusovi
I'm getting desperate :P
Rand al'Thor
@Rubio Gissanother letter! :-)
Rubio
ok I'm going to jump this ahead because otherwise this will be stupid
stacksfiller
If you're going, can I guess whether the word is bittersweet?
Deusovi
Already guessed
Rubio
1:16 AM
@Rubio defending:
B I T T E R H
stacksfiller
Ah ok
Rand al'Thor
@stacksfiller That was already mentioned.
Deusovi
...what
stacksfiller
Yeah I don't think I know the word
Deusovi
nope, me either
stacksfiller
1:16 AM
You should not do obscure words
boboquack
?
Rubio
I didn't think it was that obscure, but from the guesses so far (and
that
reaction) I guess I am wrong
stacksfiller
When you make the word, if people don't know it, they pretty much have to guess all the letters so it gets dumb
Oh, okay then
Rubio
since I have to go anyway
boboquack
Mine was
bitten
Rubio
1:17 AM
I'm going to award it to the person who pushed the last letter out of me
Rand al'Thor
A sour feeling of hope
(easy one since I've no idea whether that's actually a word)
Rubio
bittersweetness?
boboquack
Contact
stacksfiller
You gave an H already
Contact
Rubio
oh wait duh
Rand al'Thor
1:18 AM
@Rubio No H in that.
Rubio
Ok then nevermind - I think @rand probably has it
I'll pass to let someone confirm
Deusovi
No idea.
Rand al'Thor
@bobo?
boboquack
bitterhope?
Rand al'Thor
That's what I was thinking of.
stacksfiller
1:19 AM
That's what I was going to guess
Rubio
yeah that's not it
Rand al'Thor
Like I said, no idea whether it's actually a word.
Rubio
so it'll go to @Deusovi ... the word was bitterhearted
boboquack
Oh
Rubio
gotta run, i'll be on mobile but not really able to play
Deusovi
1:19 AM
Scrabble legal, my ass.
Rand al'Thor
@Deusovi :-P
Deusovi is in a temper.
stacksfiller
Yeah I just looked it up and it isn't!
boboquack
@stacks, @rand, your two starred clues?
Rand al'Thor
@boboquack Bitternut (from butternut squash).
stacksfiller
Oh that was BITTERSWEET
Deusovi
1:20 AM
stacksfiller
@Deusovi Yeah, that's what I was saying
Rand al'Thor
Do we have to ban people from defending in Contact too?
stacksfiller
Only odd because he specified Scrabble-legal
Rand al'Thor
Personally I think it's not as bad if the main word is obscure as if one of the clue words is obscure.
Deusovi
Also odd because there are under 4k Google results for it.
Rand al'Thor
1:21 AM
At least you can reconstruct it letter by letter if necessary, given enough time.
Deusovi
Alconja
gets a hit in this scrabble list:
litscape.com/word_tools_scrabble_uncensored/…
stacksfiller
Reminds me of a few days ago
A few of my friends asked if I wanted to go to an "afterniner"
Which they insisted meant an afternoon meal
Less than 20 results on google with quotes
Anyway, are you going to start a new game?
Deusovi
Oh. Sure, I guess
I'll try to make it shorter
Deusovi defending, first letter F
boboquack

Deusovi

boboquack

Volatility

Sp3000
Vol, what did you have for mine?
Volatility

boboquack
My #2 was 0123456789=>digits=>fingers
Deusovi

Sp3000

stacksfiller
Blue?
Deusovi
username is blue
since I'm a mod
boboquack
AFK for a bit
Rand al'Thor
@stacksfiller Look at his name in chat.
stacksfiller
Oh, I see
Sp3000
1:41 AM
Hah nice
Volatility
no idea on Sp's
Deusovi
Detonate
stacksfiller
^
Sid
Lost
Rand al'Thor
@Deusovi Why?
stacksfiller
1:42 AM
It's a reference to a game
KTANE
Deusovi
(video game called Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, in which you attempt to defuse a bomb without a manual, and your teammate with the manual can't see the bomb)
Sp3000
Hmm shoot was too ambiguous on that one, I had DEFUSE in mind
Deusovi
D:
Sp3000
My bad :/
stacksfiller
Aww
Deusovi
1:43 AM
bombmanual.com/manual/1/pdf/Bomb-Defusal-Manual_1.pdf
stacksfiller
I thought of detonate as well
Deusovi
Here's the manual if you want a taste of what the game is like
Rand al'Thor
@Sp3000 Seems like that makes much more sense, given what Deusovi just explained.
Deusovi
I'm much more used to losing than winning. :P
Anyway, my clue still stands
Sp3000
Possible contact on Sid
Sid
1:44 AM
Wait, my latest clue is probably,in English terms, wrong.
Rand al'Thor
Naked and expelled
Volatility
@Sid is it deserted?
Deusovi
I've updated my clue
Sid
No
Sp3000
I have a thought for Deus but it's not giving me a DE word
Deusovi
1:48 AM
Then your thought is definitely wrong
Sid
OK, I need to sleep. Ignore that last clue. It's probably wrong
Volatility
@sp what was your guess?
Sp3000
For Sid's? It was just deserted as well
Volatility
oh ok
Sid
I had defeated in mind
Volatility
1:50 AM
ah
Deusovi
Oh, that works!
Sp3000
They makes sense
Alconja
nvm
Deusovi
(keep in mind that the original clue had ^ )
boboquack

****!
@Deusovi ^
Deusovi
1:55 AM
?
boboquack
I like KTANE
Can someone star my clue?
Thx
Deusovi
An accomplishment, truly
boboquack
@Deusovi I challenged myself to memorise the manual. Who's on first was the killer, but it helped me heaps with some of the Exotic bombs
(I didn't succeed)
Deusovi
Whoa, you
memorized
it?
Oh
boboquack
No, almost all of it, but not the who's on first
Then I forgot because I stopped playing
