ok, so here's a question: what happens if two attacks actually involve the same word and the defender gets one of them? does the other attacker have to confess?
@boboquack my word was actually "recapture" -- it's a Browning quotation -- but I think in fairness I have to let you have "recapturing" given how I wrote the clue
so if I understand correctly boboquack doesn't have to admit it if his word was, say, "recaptures". But obviously I could e.g. state the challenge "the word 'recaptures'" and it would be an instant contact and bobo wouldn't be able to defeat it. Is there some standing convention that the defender concedes if someone gets that close to his word?
@GarethMcCaughan I may gradually fade out. It's late and I have lots to do. Maybe you can get a game with humn and Jonathan, or just leave it for tomorrow with a note that it's your turn?
It's late here too (@Randal'Thor and I are both in the UK) so I'd as soon not play another game now, especially as the last apparently lasted >2 hours.
@Randal'Thor I also tried to think of more, for a couple of seconds, but gave up :-). There are things like "high cockalorum", I guess, but that's not much use.
**Defender**: To start a game, type `!!start <letter>`. To reveal a letter, type `!!add <letter>`. To end the game, type `!!reset`. **Attackers**: All clues should be in bold. The bot will automatically assign a number to the clue. **Everyone**: To unstar a clue, type `!!unstar <number>`. To disable the bot, type `!!shutdown`. To see this message again, type `!!help`.
