John Dvorak

I think she just doesn't like multiline messages

Shiro

BLUE goes first!

John Dvorak

gives me an idea

Jesse

12:57 AM

@DLosc you went mia for a sec but we starting

I'm still here.

ahh sweet

!join

Hi Scrooble, you'll be joining team red!

RED: ASCII-only, FrownyFrog, John Dvorak, Scrooble

Scrooble

o/

FrownyFrog

1:00 AM

hi

Jesse

welcome

Joey Dionne

ok

BLUE : COMPOST (3)

DLosc

So we discuss before guessing, right?

Jesse

hmm

yeah

DLosc

I see worm right away.

Jesse

1:04 AM

compost is what you use for gardening i believe

yes

i think worm is a guaranteed, we can just guess it and then debate others after

Go for it.

WORM

WORM is blue

oh no they've tied

time, because it takes time for the compost to break down, forest because you use it in greenery. and you can make it there too... idk

it could be dinosaur or platypus with a loose link to poop

DLosc

1:06 AM

I was thinking about forest. It's not gardening per se, but organic matter does break down there.

Jesse

mass for the amount of compost?

John Dvorak

Compost is the emissary of decay

DLosc

Yeah, was looking at mass too.

Jesse

im liking forest the most so far. lets stay away from mass i think

DLosc

Ok

Jesse

1:06 AM

it applies to too many things

DLosc

Dinosaur could be because dinosaurs died and their bodies decayed...

Scrooble

Whoa, new player! Welcome!

DLosc

Not sold on platypus

Jesse

hmmm

DLosc

If I were picking two, I would say forest and time, probably.

Jesse

1:08 AM

worm, forest, time. i like these the most but wait a sec

yeah okay

FOREST

Joey Dionne

FOREST is blue

ASCII-only

FOREST is blue

Jesse

and we guess time too?

DLosc

Yeah.

Jesse

I think its the best reason for clue-ing compost instead of something else

TIME

Joey Dionne

1:10 AM

TIME is blue

\o/

PASS

we're done for

yeah. rip

shush, SM

1:11 AM

Gotta put the pass in [], I think.

Jesse

[PASS]

John Dvorak

!board

Jesse

it was showing the board xD you cancelled the load i think

!board

try again

FrownyFrog

bold and []

Jesse

no it was loading

[PASS]

Shiro

1:12 AM

ASCII-only

RED: EXPLOSION (2)

John Dvorak

mine seems good

FrownyFrog

pin?

Jesse

you know what they say, dance is like an explosion of expression

FrownyFrog

because handgrenade

John Dvorak

1:13 AM

That's an option

FrownyFrog

it's marginally better than mass

Scrooble

And ambulance, maybe?

FrownyFrog

yes

John Dvorak

not sure I like pin or ambulance

Scrooble

Though there's mine as well...

John Dvorak

1:14 AM

MINE

MINE is red

Ambulance is better

Agreed.

fine then

but

then it's harder to nurse

would want to keep them together?

is that a thing?

John Dvorak

1:16 AM

It isn't really, but it's an interesting idea for later.

also a great way to hit the assassin

AMBULANCE

hnnngg

AMBULANCE is red

[PASS]

@Shiro pls work

1:18 AM

... unless Frowny wanted to pass Nurse out of the ... blue?

FrownyFrog

no I wanted to pin

John Dvorak

that would be a third explosion

FrownyFrog

I don't follow

Joey Dionne

the clues need to be one word right?

FrownyFrog

no

ASCII-only

1:20 AM

@FrownyFrog wait what

John Dvorak

one word or a stock phrase

FrownyFrog

"name of a movie"

Joey Dionne

oh, that can open some options then

John Dvorak

or a proper name

FrownyFrog

"A dictionary phrase"

Scrooble

1:21 AM

"An actual name of an actual thing"

Jesse

hold up, the name of a movie is too much sometimes I think

FrownyFrog

So "Car keys" would work?

John Dvorak

no

FrownyFrog

it's the name of the thing

Scrooble

Why not?

Jesse

1:22 AM

I think yes... its certainly borderline though

John Dvorak

It's the other SM's call in borderline cases

you can OTS them to ask them.

Joey Dionne

BLUE Elizabeth II (2)

Jesse

dangit i have no idea which elizabeth that was

DLosc

The current one.

Jesse

mug for tea, embassy for england though?

idk :D

DLosc

1:27 AM

Perhaps Australia, since it's part of the Commonwealth.

They have her on their money, IIRC.

Jesse

yeah

Im australian and she IS our queen

ASCII-only

I'm Australian too :P

DLosc

Sounds good to me.

AUSTRALIA

Jesse

is mint at all related to something royal? royal mint is a bank or something but i have no real idea

Joey Dionne

AUSTRALIA is blue

Jesse

1:29 AM

phew

DLosc

A mint is where they make coins. So possibly, though it's a bit tenuous.

Jesse

i wasn't actually convinced on that one xD yeah its part of the commonwealth but i wouldn't have tied it into elizabeth

embassy is looking good?

DLosc

My main question is, why was the clue Elizabeth II and not (e.g.) England or Britain.

Jesse

or commonwealth

DLosc

Yeah.

Jesse

1:30 AM

yeah not embasssy

elizabeth is not the best for australia and embassy. there are other things

DLosc

Even something like diplomacy.

Jesse

then how about back to mug? for a cup o tea

DLosc

Again, though--England/Britain

Jesse

but we wanted to include australia

saying ENGLAND is going to stray away from australia

DLosc

I guess so.

I dunno, there's not anything that jumps out to me.

Jesse

1:33 AM

this way, we get the england focus for tea, but also the commonwealth focus for australia

ASCII-only

@DLosc ~~what are you talking about a mint is a tic tac flavor~~

Jesse

my vote is for mug

lol

but careful about giving hints

DLosc

I'm still thinking if mint could be better.

Jesse

royal mint ties in because its a common word i guess, the thing itself doesn't tie in though, just the fact that it often has royal tied to it

DLosc

Yeah. I guess I don't have strong inclinations one way or the other.

Jesse

1:35 AM

ive convinced myself its mug

MUG

MUG is yellow

Mm-hmm.

ooh my

So shall we try mint?

Jesse

1:36 AM

i dont think we get the chance

Joey Dionne

you must end turn

Jesse

yellow means our turn is over

FrownyFrog

@JohnDvorak oh I get it, we have 2+1 guesses

DLosc

Okay, right, next round, then

Joey Dionne

but at least it wasn't red or black

Jesse

1:37 AM

so its got to be embassy or mint... probably

we can keep it in mind for future guesses

use it for a +1

Joey Dionne

you still need to pass I think

FrownyFrog

type PASS just in case

[PASS]

RED: WAVES (2)

1:38 AM

BEACH

ASCII-only

BEACH is red

@JoeyDionne nah, pass is just to show board

Joey Dionne

ah, ok

John Dvorak

concert?

dance?

Scrooble

Piano?

So many options

John Dvorak

heck, even some dinosaurs have wavy spines

I'd say dance or concert

FrownyFrog

1:41 AM

embassy

waves of immigrants

Scrooble

Leaning toward concert

Not embassy, not bottle.

Dunno beyond that.

FrownyFrog

should we pass?

John Dvorak

no

CONCERT

FrownyFrog

piano is my choice tbh

ASCII-only

CONCERT is yellow

~~rip~~ at least we're still even :P

John Dvorak

1:44 AM

Why piano?

... why rip?

Joey Dionne

still no black, we doing good ASCII

FrownyFrog

that' it's sole purpose

Scrooble

Same reason for concert. Music.

ASCII-only

@JohnDvorak we don't have a lead :P

[PASS]

1:45 AM

BLUE DOT (2)

point for sure

aaand pin

DLosc

Point, yes. Pin... maybe.

Jesse

but dont pass, i think we might use the +1

POINT

DLosc

Right.

Joey Dionne

1:50 AM

POINT is blue

Jesse

and pin you are good with? it could be game

im fairly confident with pin

DLosc

Yeah, I think pin is the best option. Pinpoint.

PIN

PIN is yellow

Aww

1:52 AM

Aww

Jesse

whaaat!

DLosc

Hm, so I wonder what the other one is, then.

Jesse

yeah

DLosc

I don't think it should be mass, because point + mass says atom or nucleus or particle to me.

FrownyFrog

@ASCII-only we're up

Jesse

1:53 AM

i honestly cant imagine its anything other than pin

[PASS]

Shiro

DLosc

I mean, a piano can play dotted notes, but that's a real stretch.

im utterly befuddled

:| nothing good

you can do 0 clues

1:57 AM

not like those will help

Joey Dionne

oh yeah, we can do thoses

John Dvorak

usually it's a waste of turn though

RED: TOOL (1)

DRILL

DRILL is red

1:57 AM

And should we guess piano from last turn?

I want to

puts hands off

let's wait a bit

Sure

I'm not sure piano is better than dance anymore

alright

PIANO
