7:59 PM
O/
!pinglist
 
8:20 PM
o/
You have a bigger head than me... :P
 
@John can you SM?
 
aye
 
got the secret
 
8:22 PM
alright, let's figure out teams
@ManyPinkHats - you still interested?
 
Yup, I'm here o/
 
Blue: John, PinkHats, caird
Red: Mithrandir, Sid, GentlePurpleRain
 
I see why we normally use a bot :P
 
@John, you/Blue want to go first or should I?
 
Blue has nine words to guess
 
8:26 PM
isn't it the person with more clues who goes first?
 
I never remember :P
 
So are we starting?
 
pokes Jan
 
I... don't like this board :P
 
heh
 
8:32 PM
Blue: Death(3)
 
Poison seems fairly obvious
 
okay, so POISON seems like a clear candidate
yeah, and probably BOMB
 
Phoenix as well (possibly)
 
You should guess like GUESS on its own line, BTW, after you agree
 
8:33 PM
We guess poison, then bomb to start with?
 
yeah those are the first two guesses definitely
 
Wake is also a possiblity
 
I wonder if the third might be BRUSH, as in brush with death
 
oh shoot, yeah, holding a wake works
 
8:34 PM
POISON is blue.
 
BOMB is blue.
 
Ok, what should we guess for the third?
 
hm
we might just pass, too
and keep it in mind for later
 
We have a third guess, we might as well take it
I quite like Wake, you?
 
8:37 PM
sure, that works for me
 
WAKE is yellow.
 
alright, that's Blue's turn done
 
Red: River (3)
(pinging @GentlePurpleRain because you've been quiet)
...well, this is awkward.
 
> seen 1m ago
They may just be thinking?
 
8:42 PM
That just means that the tab is open
 
Sid
Err... I may join with GPR.
 
go ahead. bot's down, so just doing manually
 
Sid
I would just wait for GPR in any case. I only have 1 guess that has to be it(else you are so crazy that we are doomed anyway)
WATER
 
water is red
 
WATER is red.
 
8:48 PM
Sorry, was elsewhere. Here now, for the time-being.
The clue is RIVER (3)?
 
Sid
yup
 
yep
 
Me and Sid guessing?
 
Correct.
 
I would go with BANK...
...and PHOENIX
 
Sid
8:50 PM
Oh, yeah. That too.
Why Phoenix?
 
Sid
Oh, okay. Go for it.
 
BANK
@Mith @John Is BANK red?
 
Is that a guess?
 
(we were using standard guess format)
 
8:52 PM
I bolded it; isn't that standard?
 
That's not bold, that's all-caps
 
2 mins ago, by GentlePurpleRain
BANK
 
Oh, I didn't see that message
 
Anyway,
 
bank is red
 
8:53 PM
huh, that didn't show up for me
 
PHOENIX
 
phoenix is blue
 
PHOENIX is blue.
 
yeah, that message didn't show up for me either
 
I think there might have been an internet glitch; it didn't seem to post right away...
Apparently Mithrandir has not heard of River Phoenix... :P
 
8:54 PM
 
Blue's turn, then...
 
(Gah. My internet is being awful.)
 
I think it might be the SE chat connection, actually.
I think everyone is having issues.
 
I'm losing connections to other sites as well, so maybe a combination
 
Nah, just thinking
Blue: HEAD(3)
 
9:01 PM
hm
well LEAD is my first blush; do you agree caird?
maybe HEAD WIND as well
 
Sorry, internet cut out for a second
 
Sid
duh. It's obvious this is ketchup and mass...
 
Horse/Spine were my first thoughts, but wind would make sense. Where do you get lead from?
 
as in going a certain direction, but now that I say it I realize it's not as good as I first thought
I'm good with spine as a first guess, if you are too
 
9:04 PM
spine is blue
 
I think wind would be a good second guess
 
WIND
 
WIND is red.
 
shoot
 
Shame. Well, we got one
 
9:05 PM
Red's turn, and 5 left for both teams
 
Red: Orion (2)
 
Sid
BELT
 
BELT is red.
 
Sid
@Gentle I think NIGHT may be possible(because you can only see it in night). Your guesses?
 
Makes sense to me.
Can't see anything else better.
Go for it.
 
Sid
9:07 PM
NIGHT
 
NIGHT is red.
 
Can you think of anything else for RIVER? We're still missing one.
 
Sid
Any ideas for River or should we pass?
 
I wondered about BEACH, but it seems a little tenuous.
I'm inclined to pass.
 
Sid
[PASS]
 
9:09 PM
I guess WIND might have been the last one. Isn't there a movie called Wind River?
 
Sid
@GentlePurpleRain Maybe. In any case, Mith will have to give us a (3) clue next time if blue don't win it this round
 
@GentlePurpleRain Not sure about any movie, but rivers wind through the countryside
 
Ah. Alternate pronunciation.
Maybe blue will guess a red one first off...
Wait. I missed the start of the game. Who has 8 and who has 7?
 
We might, but only if John gives us a clue first :P
 
9:12 PM
Blue: City(5)
 
Blue has more.
 
Then we only need 2 more.
 
Mail and park both seem city related
 
Sid
@GentlePurpleRain It's 9 and 8.
 
9:13 PM
I'm good with both of those
PARK first?
 
You often see KETCHUP in cities.
 
Blue needs 5 more words total, red needs 3
 
Then we've still got two left over from head
MAIL
 
And people eating ORANGEs.
 
Mail is blue
 
9:14 PM
MAIL is blue.
 
PARK is blue.
 
blue
 
@ManyPinkHats Any more guesses, for City or Head?
 
A city and a head both have MASS...
 
9:16 PM
hm
 
ignores GPR
 
I'm hurt... :P
 
I'll be AFK for a couple, ping me if it's Red's turn
 
CANADA is at least geography related, but idk; NATIONAL would have made just as much sense with MAIL and PARK and would have been more direct to Canada
 
@GentlePurpleRain Just for this game, I'll stop ignoring you after it's over :P
 
9:18 PM
CANADA does have cities. I'm in one right now!
 
@ManyPinkHats I was thinking Canada as well, but I agree, there are better clues for it. Horse was my other thought
 
maybe going back to our Head ones would be better, like LEAD or HORSE
 
Play it safe and go with horse?
 
sure
 
9:19 PM
I see tons of horses in cities...
 
HORSE is yellow.
 
Or not so safe :/
 
@Mith It's red's turn.
 
Sid
Okay. I am seriously wondering what HEAD was all about...
 
9:19 PM
@GentlePurpleRain Really? Doesn't Canada have mounted police?
 
Red: Peel (2)
 
Only for show, at this point.
 
Sid
Orange and ....
 
The RCMP mostly drive cars (shocking, I know...)!
Peel is a region of Ontario, Canada...
 
never trusts an acronym again
 
9:21 PM
Probably not the answer, though.
Maybe SEAL, because of the rhyme? (tenuous)
 
okay, if we run another game then the bot will be working, according to the other chat
 
Go with ORANGE, though.
ORANGE
 
ORANGE is red.
 
I really have very little for the second one. I'd be inclined to pass.
 
Sid
Is Ham peeling a thing?
 
9:23 PM
If, at the end of this, Canada is really the assassin, I will laugh so much :P
 
Ham has a rind, but not quite the same thing (and that would have made RIND a better clue)
 
Sid
Or even FOOD a better clue..
 
yeah
so not HAM
Although KETCHUP is also food.
 
Sid
@Mithrandir HORSE is not shown to be yellow...
Anyway, pass?
 
sure. pass
I'm afraid I'm going to have to run.
[PASS]
Win it for me, Sid!
 
9:25 PM
 
Ooh, I like the symmetry in the red
 
blue: Politics (3)
 
Sid
I'm afraid I am going to fall asleep very soon...
 
Canada, Press and Seal are my first thoughts, you @ManyPinkHats?
Although Lead would also make sense
 
PRESS was definitely my first thought yeah
Seal how?
 
9:27 PM
Presidential Seal
 
ah, okay
PRESS definitely first, I think
then SEAL and/or LEAD
 
PRESS is yellow.
 
okay, we are on very different wavelengths
 
9:28 PM
I want to see the thought processes at the end :P Could be very enlightening :P
 
Red: Arctic Ocean (2)
 
CANADA (not quite gone yet)
and SEAL
 
Sid
Yup. Agreed.
 
I think the Arctic Ocean is 60% ketchup by mass, though
 
9:30 PM
CANADA is... blue.
 
And lightning Bolts frequently hit the Arctic Ocean :P
 
Sid
....what?
 
it's why it was so hard to sail through for a while; finding that Northwest Passage through all the ketchup
what
 
Now I have to know what Mith was thinking there :P
 
9:31 PM
Apparently Mithrandir needs to study geography a little more...
 
Blue: Action(2)
 
okay, surely LEAD at this point, right?
 
Bolt (as in Sniper rifles) and Lead would make sense
 
it's kept coming up in our list, but we haven't guessed it yet
LEAD
 
lead is blue
 
Sid
9:32 PM
gg (because I seem to have got what JD was thinking)
 
Any other thoughts @ManyPinkHats?
Also, we only need one more, correct?
 
Sid
yeah.
 
yeah, one more
 
In that case, mind if I guess Bolt? I can't think of anything else
 
sure, all yours
 
9:34 PM
BOLT
 
BOLT is yellow.
 
yellow
 
Sid
sigh of relief
 
Sid
Board please...
 
9:35 PM
Red: Aquatic (2)
 
Sid
Seal and Beach, I think.
 
I think GPR's left, so it's just you
 
Sid
SEAL
 
SEAL is red.
 
Sid
BEACH
 
9:37 PM
BEACH is red.
WHEW
 
Sid
There. Won it for you. @Gentle
 
I'm guessing CHANGE was the last blue?
 
I'm gonna shoot you with my bolt action rifle of change, Caird
 
indeed
 
Sid
That was the only thing suggesting ACTION to me actually...
 
9:38 PM
 
@JohnDvorak That's the second time you've threatened to kill me :P
 
Bolt, really? Just the previous clue was politics(3) with three words left to guess. What's bolt got to do with politics?
 
Sid
@MIth did you actually clue Arctic Ocean for BEACH?
 
...yes
 
@JohnDvorak I was mainly think about the latest clue
 
Sid
9:39 PM
(To be honest, it did cross my mind. But, I assumed you wouldn't do something that ridiculous. Especially with CANADA on the board)
 
How about you remember things between turns for a CHANGE, please?
 
Ever since River I'm surprised you didn't guess Beach
@JohnDvorak Calm down, it's just a game
 
Sid
Beach is not related to RIVER. It's related to OCEAN...
 
So, I have to head to sleep. RIVER was intended to clue BEACH, BANK, and WATER. ORION was intended to clue NIGHT and BELT. PEEL was intended to clue SEAL and ORANGE. ARCTIC OCEAN and AQUATIC were both intended to clue BEACH and SEAL.
 
Sid
or to a larger waterbody...
 
9:40 PM
Blue: Poison, Change, Mail, Park, Phoenix, Canada, Spine, Lead, Bomb
Black: Mass

Well, that's all over the place and I'm out of practice

Outdoors -> Park, Phoenix, Canada? Once wind, beach are gone?
Death -> Bomb, Poison, Phoenix, Change, maybe Lead (But Mass is in the way!!!)

Let's go with death(3), sacrificing Phoenix. Could be a quick game if they don't go bomb, poison, change
Oh, nice, they thought about Phoenix. Still, Mass is too much of a risk. They haven't noticed change, so maybe it's Phoenix time.
Thanks for the game. This was fun
 
do we wanna do one more?
actually, rephrase
Who here is up for another game?
 
Do we have enough players?
I can play
 
I can guess from mobile soon
 
Sid
I can guess but will have to switch to mobile now...
 
and yes, you were SUPPOSED to keep in mind previous clues
 
9:43 PM
I can even SM is Caird promises to use their memory :P
Seems I'll have to SM if we want to have another game, and I want another game
 
okay, I can SM as well
 
I've got to go, sorry guys (John's berating a sigh of relief :P)
 
I'm still confused how nobody even considered CHANGE
 
!newgame ManyPinkHats John Dvorak Sid Mithrandir
 
@JohnDvorak TBF, I did go "Crap, that would've been better" as soon as Red started their last turn
 
9:46 PM
oh I guess I'm not on the whitelist for using the bot?
 
The bot is dead...
 
ffao said in the other chat that it was back up, around the middle of the first game
 
!blame
 
Oh, good. I was about to whip up GIMP.
Oh, good. I should whip up GIMP, shouldn't I?
 
I was trying to spin up a local Shiro but it has dependencies that I can't install right now
 
Sid
9:54 PM
Okay, this is taking longer than expected...
 
okay, John Dvorak and I are SMs
 
Got the seed.
 
Red or blue?
also, Mith or Sid?
 
This should be randomized. I'm not disinterested enough to pick a color for myself.
 
Flipped a coin; apparently, I'm red now
 
9:58 PM
Who guesses which side?
 
Sid
Flip another coin. :P
 
Flipped a coin again
 
Sid is red then
 
alright
 
(source: random.org)
I guess I serve as the photoshopper, too?
