1:00 AM

fairly murky

there are dice in berlin, you should guess dice :P

and metaphorically roll the dice

tower is tempting, but there isn't one literally named Berlin tower

@MikeQ church perhaps?

Sorry my browser just borked up

!board

I was going to guess fall, as in the fall of berlin in ww2

1:03 AM

the hint is berlin, and you need 2 more

a reach, but the only other possibility is TRIANGLE for bermuda triangle

im not sure why my commands aren't working, straight from the meta

that's too reachy

Try fall?

FALL

1:04 AM

@Jesse You're not whitelisted for Shiro. That requires a moderator.

Fall is red

nice

I have no idea what to do for the 3rd. Pass?

mm

Hmmmm

hmmm

1:06 AM

heh, BOOM? Could go with the rest :P

@Scrooble look at how that team of 3 is struggling :D

you got the easy clue, cmon

@quartata Maybe? Europe, Fall, Boom -> Berlin? Seems very tenuous though...

vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/f/f6/…

Needs a ! at the front to one box

@MikeQ yeah. CHURCH seems more obvious

Dunno

1:09 AM

Why is church obvious?

!join

Hi ffao, you'll be joining team blue!

BLUE: Scrooble, Jesse, ffao

Yo

nice

you only missed one round

blue is doing too well, I need to play badly so red can have a chance xD

1:10 AM

@MikeQ got a couple old ones there, no

I dunno, I've never been

@quartata Sure, but so does everywhere else in Europe

@dooog you can !join if you want

It's something I'd associate with Europe at any rate

sure

never played in here before

!join

Hi dooog, you'll be joining team blue!

1:11 AM

@MikeQ he probably clued BERLIN for fall, then threw in two other related Europe ones is my guess

BLUE: Scrooble, Jesse, ffao, dooog

oh hi

@quartata I'm not convinced. I think we should pass.

There's nothing that fits any better, really

All right

[pass]

user image

1:13 AM

BLUE: PHONE (2)

really makes you think, that one

CELL

CELL is blue.

and then it would be tower

just want to double check there isn't anything else

you good with tower everyone else?

Only 2 words

That's what the number means

1:14 AM

yeah i think tower is most likely

sounds decent

TOWER

TOWER is blue.

[PASS]

quick, take a random guess and hit assassin

1:15 AM

user image

d'awh

ok @WhatWizard you're up

Oh I know things look bad, but I might come up with a brilliant backup plan at some point

I see a good one here...

you guys know i was pretty sure tower was for dublin, they have a famous tower

xD

I didn't clue dublin tho

RED: SAIL (3)

1:17 AM

berlin**

idk why i said dublin, im dyslexic xD

DECK

Lots of boating terms here. Fish, Port, Sink, Pool, Pilot, Seal, Deck...

deck is blue

...This is why teams should discuss before guessing

...ok

1:17 AM

red be blue ahahahaha

arr

@MikeQ like we would have seen that coming

Sweet.

!board

user image

Yeah there's 6 boat words

1:19 AM

does it switch to our turn now?

Yep.

7 actually

oh well

BLUE: North America (2)

can we do double words?

If it's a proper noun, yes

1:20 AM

yes

Yes, it's the name of a place

"An actual name of an actual thing"

i would say hollywood and canada

I would say the same

is canada north?

im terrible with geography

hollywood sure though

1:20 AM

lol yeah

Canada is to the north of the USA

lets lock in :)

HOLLYWOOD

CANADA

HOLLYWOOD is blue

CANADA is blue

You should wait for a SM reply before guessing again.

ok

mb

[PASS]

1:22 AM

@WhatWizard even though you pranked us I believe in you

It was a pleasure playing with you guys

i wanna see what a 6 word clue looks like

ive played games like this where we goofed on the single last word :D

Alright, so we already have 1 for Berlin, and 2 for Sail... So just clue the other 3 and say (unlimited)

RED: Pub UNLIMITED

1:23 AM

dice probably

AVE MARIAAAAAA

keep in mind your previous clues

rehashing mike :D mb

Dice, Pool... that seems like a casino, why a pub

oh, Sail was 3

shhh

because its dice and feet, as in you have smelly feet at the pub

I missed your message sorry

1:26 AM

that's... not the issue with you giving hints

That's not a hint

Spymasters shouldn't be saying anything other than the clues, or whether something is right or wrong

even a :^) can be a pretty serious hint at the right moment

I don't beleive in that

nothing about the questions, if he wants to have a seperate conversation it should be fine

1:27 AM

@quartata I think Sail -> Sink, Port, Pilot

Still unsure about Berlin but Church seems plausible now, so does Boom

Pool and Dice could work for pub too

@quartata Do you have any ideas? Or should I start guessing?

with 6 to go you might as well guess on the 1 or two that you are most sure of

I'm not really sure about any of these, and our odds of winning are very low

There are way too many nautical terms

@quartata ?

Well ook then

SINK

SINK is Yellow

grumble grumble grumble

same

1:33 AM

!board

user image

BLUE: RUBBER UNLIMITED

UNLIMITED :o

Sorry I was afk....

lol

rubber....

that is not the most obvious

1:35 AM

SAIL was supposed to be TRIANGLE

i feel like its plastic?

idk what else it might be

I was expecting a more obvious clue by this point, yeah

it could be rubber dice, rubber fish

and I also feel plastic by elimination

i dont think dice are ever rubber

1:36 AM

I woukd have guessed DICE POOL CHURCH TRIANGLE PORT

its a bit of a blunder... rubber is not a plastic

i just thought of it since they're both materials

then why not say materials

but obviously I did not plan on being afk longer than a few minutes...

throwing us a curveball at the last moment...

yeah okay fine plastic

although not technically correct its the most obvious

1:38 AM

go for it

there can be a rubber seal too

that you put around your doors and stuff

while all of that is a possibility, I don't think Scrooble would expect us to go for seal with a rubber hint?

woah codenames

in that case i think a lot of other clues would work better, like blubber, or walrus, or something

!join

1:39 AM

Hi thecoder16, you'll be joining team red!

RED: What Wizard, MikeQ, quartata, thecoder16

PLASTIC

you've joined us at a dark time coder

PLASTIC is blue.

Good game.

well we're a bit behind it seems

phew

1:40 AM

!board

why on earth did you say rubber!

i fully expect a (6) clue

user image

oh

!finalboard

1:40 AM

well

user image

lol

gg

First thing that came into my mind for plastic. Sorry.

@WhatWizard care to 'splain your clues?

1:40 AM

yeah. it was TRIANGLE and BOOM

good thing we didnt guess church....

Berlin was in EUROPE, BOOM, FALL

the sail clue was a classic case of trying to connect your words and forgetting to look at the other words on the board

pub was for cook

I do that a lot

tbh i wouldve guessed triangle first for sail, if he wanted it to be a nautical clue it definitely wouldve been boat or something

1:42 AM

Sail was TRIANGLE, BOOM and PORT, I intentionally clued sail and not BOAT to avoid deck and sink.

but he specifically said sail

ive got lunch in 20-40min but id be down to play again if you guys are?

Pub was the last 3 COOK, POOL and DICE

yeah i can see that

pool table

im down to play

1:43 AM

Instead of SAIL I woukd have done MAST

Mast doesn't get triangle

I'll have to leave soon, but I can play the start of another game.

whatever ship related part you clue, I'm probably going for other ship parts

and DECK seemed so obvious

40 mins ago, by quartata

a reach, but the only other possibility is TRIANGLE for bermuda triangle

1:45 AM

ping if you are in, and if you are fine being SM

My roomate had jokingly suggested this

that was on the berlin clue

I am in but I can't SM

@quartata yep

I am in but I can't SM

I can be SM if we have no one else

1:46 AM

dare I try SM

Go ahead.

i dare you

probaby nt a good idea, since I have no idea if the board app will work on mobile

should work on mobile, anyway you can just open it and try

id like to try SM but it might not be a good idea since i have to go in 30m

1:47 AM

I can actually SM if 0' is also SMing. We are in the same room.

but I'm also not a great SM

I'm also not a great SM

probably a bad idea, then

well, you'd be evenly matched. :P

ill SM and just stay later, but lets hurry please, @ffao ou and I are SM's want to start?

@ffao :(

1:52 AM

I didn't leave you, I left Mikeq

@Jesse you get it working?

yeah

BLUE: beast, 4

gaint, lochness

bear, shark spider

germany

Probaby not spider

could be calf as well

why germany?

1:54 AM

Let's do loch ness and bear first

giant

we can do bear first

leave shark and spider for last

I think giant is better than bear

giant bear though is better than the two of them together

Loch Ness is literally a monster, it's definitely the safest

1:56 AM

but is it a beast

well.. loch ness is just the lake itself :P

good point

but i agree it would be in my top 4

Beast includes monsters and animals

That's why he used it obvs

true.

are sharks animals?

10

1:57 AM

theyre fish i think

Ok

if bear is included, i think calf must be included as well

calf is just a baby

I'd say SPIDER, BEAR, LOCHNESS, SHARK, GERMANY

then pass

if anything I'd say beast excludes calf e.g. vs creature

do NOT clue spider first

1:59 AM

why is quartata on both teams?

well lets do bear and loch ness first, i think we all agree on those 2

Ok

@0' Im not

LOCH NESS

the board says you are
