Scrooble

2:00 AM

@0 ' That's last game lol

0 '

hmmm so it is

Mike Q

!board

!board

2:01 AM

we are out

What Wizard

@dooog We don't get to go again.

Jesse

next turn

quartata

@WhatWizard thats like clueing MONSTER and FRAKENSTIEN is on the board, then saying "but it's the scientist name"

dooog

yeah i mean, do we have to do the [pass] thjing for the bot

ffao

RED: fantasy, 4

Scrooble

2:02 AM

Spell, for one

What Wizard

@quartata I do think it was strange, but I'm just saying it can make some sort of sense

0 '

yeah

Mike Q

Spell, Knight, Queen, uh...

Scrooble

Knight, perhaps

0 '

queen?

Scrooble

2:02 AM

Chest as well

What Wizard

probs stick (order of the stick)

quartata

Awh hell yeah dude OOTS thug life

Scrooble

Haven't checked OOTS in a couple weeks. BRB

quartata

you read 1117 yet?

Mike Q

Tower, Chest, Box, Light, Spider... uh

What Wizard

2:03 AM

@quartata I have not read any order of the stick

Mike Q

@Scrooble Uh what? Just check it later

Scrooble

@MikeQ Kidding

quartata

you should. be sure to spend all your money on the merchandise

Mike Q

Oh! Giant also works.

0 '

shall we guess spell since it seems pretty clear cut?

Scrooble

2:05 AM

Yep

What Wizard

@MikeQ giant is our word, hands off

Mike Q

SPELL

ffao

spell is red

Mike Q

Oh right. We're looking for FANTASY but not BEAST.

ASCII-only

!join

Shiro

2:06 AM

Hi ASCII-only, you'll be joining team red!

RED: ffao, 0 ', Scrooble, Mike Q, ASCII-only

ASCII-only

great

Scrooble

At this point, I'm thinking knight, queen, tower in that order.

Mike Q

Similar here

0 '

sounds pretty reasonable

Scrooble

Though I could definitely see chest as well.

ASCII-only

2:07 AM

not too sure about queen

Scrooble

Shall we go for knight?

ASCII-only

doesn't look like there's anything better though. also i'd prefer tower to be not last, idk

sure

KNIGHT

knight is red

2:08 AM

I don't know, I feel queen is better than tower

What Wizard

both are chess peices

so is knight

they probably would have clued chess

ASCII-only

hmm that's a good point

quartata

how about CONTRACT

nothing more fantastical than that

Mike Q

shhh begone blue infidel

dooog

blue team rules

Mike Q

2:10 AM

Stick could work actually. Wands, staves, OOTS

ASCII-only

for some reason when you mentioned contract all I could think of was Log Horizon for a second >_>

0 '

Stick is pretty tenuous compared to other available words though

Jesse

there are a lot of log horizon related words here :D

ASCII-only

Giant is still also possible IMO

quartata

contracts play a prominent part in mythology, such asthr critcally acclaimed cuphead "dont deal with the devil"

you should totally go for it, carpet dime or whatever

Mike Q

2:12 AM

@ASCII-only Yes, but the other team's previous clue was BEAST, so... maybe not

What Wizard

Also meidvil people contracted the plague

0 '

Yeah and i'm not finding four beast words without giant

dooog

meidvil...

What Wizard

SPIDER, GIANT, BEAR, LOCHNESS, SHARK, GERMANY, that's 7 easy

quartata

you and your germany

ASCII-only

2:13 AM

hmm. i don't really count giants as beasts though

Mike Q

Fine. Let's guess giant.

Scrooble

More of a "monstrous humanoid"

0 '

let's guess queen before giant

What Wizard

queen is much less of a beast than giant

quartata

giants are not humanoids

so don't worry about that

ASCII-only

2:14 AM

wait what

quartata

pretty sure

Scrooble

@quartata Son.

What Wizard

they are really big elfs

ASCII-only

which definition of giant are you using

Scrooble

Let's advance this game, shall we?

ASCII-only

2:16 AM

good idea

Scrooble

YOLO

QUEEN

ffao

queen is yellow

!board

Drat.

darn

2:16 AM

sry

thecoder16

and it's 11:17 so i probably shouldn't try this

i might start thinking sharks are plants

quartata

@ASCII-only ADND. but giants are still their own creature type in 3E

Jesse

BLUE: EDGE, 3

What Wizard

Current guessing order, pending new clue is SPIDER, GIANT, BEAR, LOCHNESS, SHARK, GERMANY for me

triangle

dooog

i would say triangle first as well

What Wizard

2:18 AM

point

has to be bold

stick

might be box

box?

germany is still pretty good

Jesse

2:19 AM

give some context and more than just the word so i know if you are trying to guess or not, i don't want to give away clues

What Wizard

they will be bold

ffao

a word by itself bolded is a guess

Jesse

ok

0 '

giants tend to live on the edge of civilization

dooog

i think my 3 would be box, triangle, point

quartata

2:20 AM

i will change my chat bio if this isn't triangle, theres just no way. let's just lead off with that

What Wizard

wait

nevermind

hm field is tempting

quartata

dude, he assumed it was a guess the second you said it

dooog

we good for triangle?

TRIANGLE

What Wizard

@quartata maybe he is a pessimist

Jesse

TRIANGLE is blue

What Wizard

2:22 AM

darn

Jesse

blueis good

What Wizard

oh yay

dooog

alright i would guess box then point, opinions?

What Wizard

ok, I think we where on the right track

I think point is better to start

dooog

thats fine, i think quartata said the same

What Wizard

2:23 AM

maube we should do beast words first

quartata

agreed. point seems more likely

What Wizard

give us more time to think about edge

also then our opponents have to deal with edge

quartata

SHARK?

dooog

bear

What Wizard

hm, shark is a fish

but it sounds like sharp

which is also an edge

quartata

2:24 AM

beast != mammal

What Wizard

yes that's why we don't do calf

0 '

beasts have hair ergo they are mammals

What Wizard

I think bear is better than shark

dooog

i agree

What Wizard

but I think germany is pretty good

0 '

2:25 AM

so quartata is right beast < mammal

What Wizard

fairy tales come from gernmany

dooog

BEAR

What Wizard

like hansel and grettly or dracula

Jesse

BEAR is blue

What Wizard

few

ASCII-only

2:26 AM

dracula is german?

What Wizard

that was close

ok now we should do pointer

dooog

POINT

Jesse

POINT is blue

quartata

yeah I'm more confident in point than shark

dooog

!board

Jesse

2:27 AM

you have to be a mod

What Wizard

we get one more guess

ffao

!board

Shiro

What Wizard

don't you just need permission? I remember being able to baord

quartata

night as well go for SHARK

What Wizard

2:27 AM

ok BOX, GIANT or GERMANY

dooog

i would say box first

What Wizard

I think giant is better than shark

quartata

we are not clueing germany

dooog

k well we got 2 votes to clue box first

What Wizard

ok, fair enoug

I just have a feeling

dooog

2:28 AM

BOX

Jesse

there is one vote left

BOX is red

:(

dooog

i mean me and what wizard wanted box first

What Wizard

I wanted giant

dooog

sry i read your three in order

Jesse

ok next teams turn

What Wizard

2:29 AM

wele this is not the ned of the world

quartata

All of the beasts so far have been animals

What Wizard

Oh ywah we forgot about spiders

quartata

and not mythical creatures

What Wizard

oh yeah, rule out spiders then

quartata

you have very strange world view

What Wizard

2:30 AM

Oh wait I misread

quartata

[pass]

What Wizard

I didn't see the mythical part

Shiro

Jesse

we already guessed red

dooog

the pass makes it official i guess

Jesse

2:31 AM

ok

ASCII-only

pass makes Shiro show board

quartata

have to explicitly pass.

Jesse

@ffao ready?

ffao

RED: faucet, 1

not really :P

quartata

otherwise it will think it's our turn still

What Wizard

2:32 AM

probablt tap

0 '

that's probably TAP

Scrooble

It had better be.

ASCII-only

we get 2 guesses max right

0 '

yeah I think so

John Dvorak

!join

Scrooble

2:32 AM

Yup

Shiro

Hi John Dvorak, you'll be joining team blue!

BLUE: Jesse, What Wizard, quartata, dooog, John Dvorak

Scrooble

Oh. GG.

Jesse

ahah good luck we are very behind

What Wizard

we are doing good

Scrooble

Red might as well forfeit now.

What Wizard

2:33 AM

the other team already used all of their words we saved ours for the late game

Jesse

So far the tips have been beast, 4 and Edge 3

John Dvorak

should I switch sides?

no

shall we guess TAP?

Yea

2:34 AM

so we need to figure out the third fantasy one, unless that's loch ness

0 '

TAP

ffao

tap is red

quartata

no we need you Wheat keeps trying to guess GERMANY for everything

John Dvorak

oh

0 '

@quartata *What

What Wizard

2:34 AM

I have never tried to guess it I just think it is

Jesse

now either pass or take a guess

dooog

we will trade what wizard for a 7th round pick

0 '

do we want to guess tower or something?

ASCII-only

@0 ' relevant

Mike Q

So fantasy -> Spell, Knight, and 2 others

ASCII-only

2:35 AM

oh 2 others?

Mike Q

giant actually seems like a decent guess

0 '

My current thought for fantasy would be CHEST and/or TOWER

What Wizard

We have dibs on giant

Scrooble

I'm thinking TOWER or CHEST

quartata

do BEAR, it's referring to cave bears

ASCII-only

2:36 AM

I'd go GIANT > TOWER > CONTRACT > LUCK

What Wizard

OWLBEARS

Jesse

bear has been guessed already

quartata

no it hasnt

Scrooble

I think GIANT is too much of a beast for safety.

ASCII-only

@quartata it has

0 '

2:37 AM

I'd go CHEST > TOWER > LUCK > [pass]

quartata

oh wait it did right

ASCII-only

hmm isn't chest more of a game thing

quartata

in tha case maybe they're laser death SHARKS

Scrooble

TOWER > CHEST > [pass]

0 '

maybe

quartata

2:38 AM

straight out of LOTR

What Wizard

OWLSHARKS

Jesse

you only have 1 more guess

0 '

I guess maybe I'd lean towards Scrooble's order

Scrooble

@quartata o.0 Don't remember that part...

ASCII-only

that would work

quartata

2:39 AM

@Scrobble pretty sure it's in the book of unfinished tales

Scrooble

@quartata Ambushed on the way to the Undying Lands?

0 '

are we agreed on TOWER?

quartata

aragorn shoots a couple with an m4a1-s

Jesse

please guess, i have to go for lunch we took too long

Scrooble

I am.

Jesse

2:39 AM

quick

just one guess

ASCII-only

yeah i'm fine with tower

Scrooble

TOWER

ffao

tower is red. red is out of guesses, so it's blue's turn

!board

Jesse

BLUE: pencil, 2

ill brb

Shiro

What Wizard

2:41 AM

stick

dooog

stick, contract?

quartata

so hopefully thats stick and contract

dooog

STICK

What Wizard

lets do stick and then an old word

quartata

and not scientist

What Wizard

2:41 AM

I don't feel confident in contract

ffao

stick is blue

What Wizard

Ok my order is SPIDER, GIANT, LOCHNESS, SHARK, GERMANY

dooog

so we have 3 beast, 1 edge, 1 pencil

quartata

why are yall ignoring SHARK

What Wizard

should we pinge john?

dooog

2:42 AM

nah not til we guess

What Wizard

@quartata It's on my list

dooog

wait is he john

oh wait jesse

oh yeah we have another member

What Wizard

john is on our team

@JohnDvorak

dooog

@JohnDvorak

wops

John Dvorak

shark, lochness look like beasts to me

quartata

2:43 AM

SHARK seems way more likely than GIANT. It's an animal. BEAR was an animal.

What Wizard

that's not how you sepll whoops

dooog

i would say shark and contract are most likely

quartata

we guessed LOCH NESS first, wasn't it

John Dvorak

maybe scientist for pencil?

What Wizard

yes, but I'm not convinced (for lichness)

dooog

2:44 AM

yeah i could see that

quartata

yeah I suggested scientist

dooog

any against guessing shark now?

What Wizard

I think spider

quartata

contracts are signed in pen

0 '

I have some freinds who are scientists and they use a lot of pencils

John Dvorak

2:45 AM

oh, right. Contract then.

What Wizard

I think we should finish besat first

dooog

wizard you think spider > shark?

0 '

I always sign my contracts with pencil

What Wizard

@dooog yes, spiders are hairy, sharks are slimy

John Dvorak

shark > spider, at least for beasts

0 '

2:45 AM

beasts have hair so sharks aernt besats

John Dvorak

spiders are too small

What Wizard

also sharks are fish

dooog

well i think we have 3 for guessing shark first

quartata

Spiders are too cute to be beasts

dooog

SHARK

ffao

2:46 AM

shark is blue

What Wizard

still think spider

we have 1 more beast

John Dvorak

lochness > spider

What Wizard

@JohnDvorak that's what I was saying

quartata

LOCH NESS was guessed and was wrong

dooog

no we have 2 more beasts

John Dvorak

2:47 AM

oh, right

ASCII-only

@quartata case in point

0 '

lochness does not have hair

calf > lochness > spider

What Wizard

Spider > germany > shark

quartata

sharks dont either. massive overthink here.

he just meant animal

...we just guessed shark

What Wizard

but sharks are fish

0 '

2:48 AM

lochness isn't animal while calf is

dooog

any opinions for the next guess?

0 '

calf > germany > lochness > shark

What Wizard

spider seems like the last beast

dooog

i would say contract next

theres 2 more beasts

What Wizard

I'd hold off on contact until we have more info

we have a lot of info on beast

John Dvorak

2:49 AM

I'm fine with guessing contract

0 '

yeah its a good idea to save words

quartata

spiders are too small.

What Wizard

giant is probably a beast because otherwise he whould have said aminal

0 '

there are some spiders that are bigger than sharks

dooog

candidates for beast: giant, calf, spider

quartata

2:49 AM

I'd be on board with giant probably

@0' bigger than baby tiger sharks sure

John Dvorak

calf = spider > giant

What Wizard

I know you guys don't like it but I also think germany is a ok candidate for beast, so I wouldn't rule it out just yet.

4

I don't think that we should go with calf though

dooog

i think i would agree with john

but im ok with guessing spider

What Wizard

if it were calf and spider he would have said animal

quartata

calfs are babies though

0 '

2:51 AM

spiders don't have hair though

What Wizard

good point

oh wait no they do have hair

0 '

no spiders have fur

What Wizard

I forgot you were on the other team

@0 ' What's the difference?

quartata

why are you listening to him

0 '

@WhatWizard mammals have hair spiders have fur

What Wizard

2:52 AM

sorry

let's focus

dooog

quartata what would your next guesses be

quartata

would probably go for CONTRACT and hold off on beasts

What Wizard

hm we also have edge

dooog

john liked contract so ill go with that

What Wizard

is there a way to do edge and pencil

0 '

2:53 AM

contracts don't have hair though

dooog

CONTRACT

ffao

CONTRACT is blue

blue is out of guesses

quartata

I suspect that was STICK

What Wizard

[pass]

Shiro

quartata

2:54 AM

@0' your face doesnt have hair

RED: Schrödinger, 2

gg

Luck, scientist?

calf sounds like cat

Or light?

2:54 AM

scientist, field or scientist, luck

0 '

Okay, its definitely not germany since Schrodinger was austrian

Scrooble

SCIENTIST

ffao

scientist is red

John Dvorak

Austria is a state of Germany

0 '

Also blue already has germany

John Dvorak

2:55 AM

Oster Reich = southern realm

quartata

no we dont

0 '

germany is beast right?

What Wizard

@JohnDvorak that's autraliea

quartata

only a special color of Wheat's brain has germany

Scrooble

The last word fits fantasy. I say LUCK.

Mike Q

2:56 AM

Agreed, that makes sense

quartata

what about LIGHT

Mike Q

@0' @ASCII-only what say you

0 '

hmm....

ASCII-only

hmm

looks like our only options are SCIENTIST > LIGHT (?) > LUCK > FIELD maybe

0 '

chest might sort of since its similar to box

Scrooble

2:58 AM

True.

0 '

and it also has fantasy going for it

What Wizard

box is really good

John Dvorak

Schroedinger's chest is nothing like Schroedinger's box

What Wizard

and its already red

so you know it's correct

quartata

CHEST sounds good to me

Scrooble

2:59 AM

!mute quartata

quartata

nuuuuu

0 '

wait does that work?
