ffao

Sconibulus

Business Cat

Same

Deusovi

well, you go first

Sconibulus

oh, right

Red: Music (3)

Deusovi

8:16 PM

@WheatWizard, @BusinessCat, @JanDvorak

Business Cat

Can the teams be pinned?

Wheat Wizard

Oh I'm on scons team

Business Cat

And no one posted the grid yet...

Wheat Wizard

I forgot

Jan Dvorak

present. Thanks for the ping

Sconibulus

8:17 PM

Wheat Wizard

horn

dance

Business Cat

Yep

Jan Dvorak

This will be fun

Business Cat

Hollywood maybe

Bit of stretch

Jan Dvorak

Hollywood seems related

Business Cat

8:18 PM

Maybe bottle? Like when you blow into it :P

Jan Dvorak

I don't think bottle

Business Cat

Doubt it

Wheat Wizard

I was thinking that

probably a stretch

Business Cat

I'd say we go for Dance, Horn first

Wheat Wizard

better than hollywood imo

@BusinessCat Dance or horn first

Business Cat

8:19 PM

Dance

dance

DANCE

DANCE is RED

what?

oh we are red

Wesley Situ

youre red

Wheat Wizard

8:20 PM

ok horn now then?

Jan Dvorak

Yeah, got to get used to it, too :-)

HORN

Sconibulus

HORN is RED

Wheat Wizard

Ok we need one more

Jan Dvorak

#3 hollywood?

can't see any better choice

Wheat Wizard

I don't think os

imo bottle is better than hollywood

Jan Dvorak

8:21 PM

disagreed

Wheat Wizard

we could pass

Jan Dvorak

Cat?

Business Cat

I don't have much confidence in either

I say pass

Jan Dvorak

Better than bottle I guess

Wheat Wizard

[PASSING]

Deusovi

8:22 PM

@ffao, @n_palum, you there?

about to give my clue

Jan Dvorak

keeps bottle, Hollywood stashed

ffao

I'm here

Deusovi

gimme a sec, trying to get a screenshot

Wheat Wizard

@JanDvorak @BusinessCat Perhaps ray is for music, like the note

Jan Dvorak

Ray note?

Wheat Wizard

8:24 PM

Re

Business Cat

I vaguely recall chair meaning something

like Do Re Mi

USAGI TSUKINO, 3

Ah

8:25 PM

ummm

Wheat Wizard

they are homophones

Deusovi

@ffao, @WesleySitu, @n_palum

Wesley Situ

something japanese

rabbit, moon

Jan Dvorak

We've passed already, so no rush

Wesley Situ

i think moon would be one

maybe tokyo

ffao

8:25 PM

moon definitely

superhero also maybe, not sure

more confident in moon and rabbit

Wesley Situ

do you know what that is?

rabbits not on there

ffao

Usagi Tsukino is Sailor Moon

Wesley Situ

oh

okay

lets call in moon then

MOON

Deusovi

Blue.

Wesley Situ

superhero sounds good to me too

ffao

8:27 PM

I'm fine with calling that

Wesley Situ

so superhero/tokyo then?

sure

SUPERHERO

Blue.

TOKYO

8:28 PM

Also blue.

ffao

did you clue that because you knew I would know who Usagi Tsukino is? :P

Deusovi

No comment.

ffao

we should pass, right?

Wesley Situ

yes

ffao

passing

Sconibulus

8:29 PM

Red: Fatality (3)

ninja?

box (sport)

Ambulance?

spider?

maybe spike

8:30 PM

spine?

Jan Dvorak

I don't think spider

Wheat Wizard

yeah

I'm feeling spine

Jan Dvorak

spine seems low-quality match to me

Business Cat

Ninja seems reasonable, aren't a lot of the Mortal Kombat characters ninjas? (Don't mind me if I sound like an idiot)

Sconibulus

Wheat Wizard

8:31 PM

They all feel like low quality matches

Jan Dvorak

@BusinessCat essentially

@WheatWizard even box?

Wheat Wizard

I'm thinking spine because in the mortal kombat fatalities there is a lot of spine crushing

I feel box is way off

Jan Dvorak

box as in sport

Wheat Wizard

Yeah

Jan Dvorak

mortal kombat is essentially a more brutal version of box

Wheat Wizard

8:32 PM

I think its way too tenuous.

I think ninja and spine are our best bets right now

I'm okay with ninja

Me too

not so with spine

Although unsure about spine

Wheat Wizard

NINJA

Deusovi

8:33 PM

Red.

NINJA is RED

ok rip

youre red

^

oh wait thats good

8:34 PM

Thoughts on ambulance?

Deusovi

Wheat Wizard

@BusinessCat Seems ok,

Jan Dvorak

Ambulance seems nice. It's a 3-clue

Wheat Wizard

all of them seem pretty bad

Jan Dvorak

lock in ambulance?

Business Cat

8:35 PM

Go for it

Jan Dvorak

AMBULANCE

Wheat Wizard

I want to think about this a bit more

ok rip

Red.

AMBULANCE is RED

ok no rip

8:36 PM

Roulette could also be a fatality. As in, russian roulette.

Business Cat

The rest of the choices are all pretty bad

Wheat Wizard

I was thinking that

I like spine

Business Cat

Yeah that sounds reasonable-ish

Wheat Wizard

@BusinessCat Which one?

Business Cat

Roulette

Jan Dvorak

8:36 PM

If you want to pass, I think we should guess hollywood on music.

Wheat Wizard

I think Ray is the last music one

Jan Dvorak

does cat disagree with box?

Business Cat

I think it's a bit of a stretch

n_palum

Back around now, I had to drive home

How we doin'

Wesley Situ

3/3

Jan Dvorak

8:38 PM

red turn, we're brooding our options

ffao

this game is quite intense

Wheat Wizard

@WesleySitu 4/3

Wesley Situ

i meant 3 of our guesses correct out of 3 :P

Wheat Wizard

oh I see

sorry

Business Cat

I think our possible guesses are Hollywood, box, roulette, ray

Jan Dvorak

8:39 PM

roulette then?

Wheat Wizard

I think we should do ray

Business Cat

Out of those, I'd pick roulette

Jan Dvorak

I'll trust you on ray

Wheat Wizard

its the one I am most confident with

Business Cat

Ok let's do ray I guess

Jan Dvorak

8:40 PM

RAY

RAY

RAY is RED

Red.

last one, roulette?

\o/

8:40 PM

Ok sure.

Yep

ROULETTE

Neutral.

ROULETTE is YELLOW

that'll do

8:40 PM

ok not bad

Jan Dvorak

that's one fatality to go

Wheat Wizard

it would have been quite ironic if it was the assasin

Jan Dvorak

\o/

Deusovi

SIZE, 2

ffao

that would be a fatality indeed

n_palum

8:41 PM

What's the board look like so I can help :P

Deusovi

Wesley Situ

giant?

ffao

giant would be the obvious one

for the second one... microscope?

n_palum

Those both look good to me

What other clue words have we had?

Wesley Situ

i was thinking that too

n_palum

8:43 PM

Go for it ffao

Wesley Situ

our previous one was USAGI TSUKINO for Tokyo, Moon, and Superhero

ffao

first clue was usagi tsukino, 3, we got all 3 for that I think

giant

Deusovi

Blue.

ffao

can I go microscope now wesley?

n_palum

I'm so used to being red I panicked.

Wesley Situ

8:43 PM

yes

microscope

Blue.

passing

gyazo.com/cc7623c96839f1aae237c79a9c442f73

Wheat Wizard

Ok we have to step it up

Jan Dvorak

8:45 PM

It's 5:5 with us in play, and we have an unfulfilled clue

Wheat Wizard

yeah, i guess we are not doing too bad

they just move so efficiently it makes me feel like we are losing

Jan Dvorak

So are we

Wheat Wizard

@Sconibulus Are you thinking?

Sconibulus

yeah, sorry

Wheat Wizard

No problem

Sconibulus

8:47 PM

Red: Suits (2)

lawyer?

Lawyer

limo?

I was thinking limo or hollywood

Jan Dvorak

This clue left me confused

Business Cat

8:48 PM

OHH Snow suits

Wheat Wizard

perhaps

Jan Dvorak

I'm thinking that too, though I'm not sure what they are

Business Cat

Just like winter clothing. Coat, snow pants, etc.

Idk

Wheat Wizard

now I'm questioning if snow suits are a real thing

lets go lawyer first

Wesley Situ

summer dresses, snow suits :)

Wheat Wizard

8:49 PM

get that locked in

Business Cat

Lawyer for sure

Jan Dvorak

Lawyer suit? What's that?

oh, a lawsuit

ok

Wheat Wizard

Lawyers are often called suits as well

n_palum

Vets wear suits

Jan Dvorak

Are they?

Wheat Wizard

8:50 PM

@n_palum good point

and your spine goes in a suit

lawyer lock in

LAWYER

Red.

LAWYER is RED

Good. One suit and one fatality to go.

Wheat Wizard

8:51 PM

I feel like snow is pretty good

Jan Dvorak

What are winter jumpsuits called? Ski suits?

Wheat Wizard

don't know

Business Cat

I've never heard anyone say ski suit

Wheat Wizard

I don't think thats a thing

Jan Dvorak

I'd put fatality before snowsuit though

Wheat Wizard

8:52 PM

ok

Jan Dvorak

either spine or box

Wheat Wizard

I still think spine is our best bet on fatality, but I'd love to hear a better option

Business Cat

I don't understand it

Jan Dvorak

spine-related injuries are how most mortal kombat characters die

or spine removal, should I say

Business Cat

Oh, then maybe

Jan Dvorak

8:54 PM

Unless there is support for box, I'll nod for spine

Business Cat

Let's go spine

Wheat Wizard

in One of the most famous fatalities they rip out the other guys spine by his head

SPINE

SPINE is blue.

dammit

SPINE is BLUE

8:54 PM

sorry

Jan Dvorak

box then?

Wheat Wizard

Depends on our next clue

I think we should ignore fatality if we can

Jan Dvorak

ok. One suit and one fatality to go.

Deusovi

(not a bad guess, though - I would've picked it)

Wheat Wizard

I don't think we are thinking about it right

Jan Dvorak

8:55 PM

I'm holding onto box

Wrestling is such an easy way to get maimed

Deusovi

AMBULANCE 2

Business Cat

I never actually played MK

I didn't either

Updated board?

van + ?

8:56 PM

I own a version but I have not played it much

Deusovi

ffao

van was my first thought as well

n_palum

How many more do we need

ffao

2

n_palum

I agree on van

Wesley Situ

8:57 PM

we can do van and pass if we cant find another one

n_palum

the other that jumps out is vet

Wesley Situ

vet was my second choice as well

n_palum

but that's loose because vets don't typically go in an ambulance

Wesley Situ

yea

VAN

n_palum

There's limo for the sake of pairing vehicles, but loose again.

Deusovi

8:59 PM

Blue.

Wesley Situ

ffao thoughts?

ffao

uhm... I'd pass

n_palum

[passing]
