I think that makes caird and I the SMs, because we don't care and 'borg would rather not

@bobble Well, since caird is sm anyways, might as well start and wait for him to come

Shiro

Prince North Læraðr

23:15

Why isn't it starring bobble's team?

@bobble It works out because you're starting anyways :)

Sciborg

Bobble, we got this :D

caird coinheringaahing

Hello

merrybot

@PrinceNorthLæraðr perhaps because you capitalized Bobble

bobble

I haven't won since my first time, so now's my chance!

Prince North Læraðr

Oh maybe

Sciborg

23:16

I won't let you down!

Prince North Læraðr

@merrybot it should be okay

Shiro

We are currently waiting for a clue from the Red spymaster.

Sciborg

Caird, you're SMing for North it looks like

Prince North Læraðr

Ping me when caird clues, thank you

caird coinheringaahing

I'm Blue

Sciborg

23:17

Will do :)

Prince North Læraðr

@cairdcoinheringaahing yea

caird coinheringaahing

Sorry, I stepped away from my computer for 1 minute and a game starts with me SMing :P

Sciborg

No worries, bobble is cluing first so you have plenty of time :)

Hi Platypus!

Prince North Læraðr

It's like the old days

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

hi

want me on sciborg's team so it's fair?

or is it not fair either way

Sciborg

No worries, i'm happy being by myself

Prince North Læraðr

The starboard isn't up to date

Sciborg

It's you and North with Caird SMing, vs. me with Bobble SMing.

caird coinheringaahing

23:21

For some reason Shiro doesn't like starring the Red team

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I need redemption after Wednesday

Prince North Læraðr

@ThePuzzlingPlatypus Up to you. I do have more experience, but I'm not any smarter than 'borg

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I meant in numbers

Prince North Læraðr

Um

It's 3-2

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

that's fine then

Sciborg

23:22

It will be 3-2 either way

caird coinheringaahing

Just leave it as is

nice clue bobble, btw

COME ON SHIRO

caird coinheringaahing

Just make a guess, the board is above

8 mins ago, by Shiro

Sciborg

23:23

Excellent clue. Hmmm. I'm inclined to think BEAT, SWING and BATTERY, but FIGHTER also fits, obviously. But I feel like if it was FIGHTER, you would have said "attacker" or something.

So...

BEAT

Prince North Læraðr

shiro...?

!who

Shiro

We are currently waiting for a clue from the Red spymaster.

Sciborg

???

merrybot

see, "bobble" != "Bobble"

caird coinheringaahing

Oh crap

Prince North Læraðr

23:24

ah geez it's bc I capitalized bobble's name

caird coinheringaahing

!leave Bobble

bobble

do you want me to change my name to "Bobble" temporarily?

caird coinheringaahing

No, I think we have to restart the game

Prince North Læraðr

!join bobble

Shiro

Hi bobble, you'll be joining team red!

Sciborg

23:25

we might have to restart...

Shiro

RED: Bobble, Sciborg, bobble

Sciborg

Yeah, we'll have to restart

bobble

you can't make spymasters leave

merrybot

ahh now there are 2 bobbles

caird coinheringaahing

Damn cheating bobble, guessing and SMing ಠ_ಠ

bobble

23:25

should I post my log?

Prince North Læraðr

My bad, may bad

caird coinheringaahing

Yeah, we'll just end the game :p

Seed: 811603668

Blue: Canada, Shakespeare, Gold, Mexico, Port, Ice, Film, Flute
Red: Thumb, Fighter, Duck, Needle, Cricket, Beat, Police, Code, Battery
Black: Hood
Yellow: Ambulance, Sock, Swing, Seal, Apple, Buffalo, Conductor

Good, bobble's starting.
Country (2) immediately jumps to mind
North and TPP on my team, Sci against
Americas (3) could clue Canada, Mexico and Gold but Gold is tenuous there
I think Ice + Canada and Gold + Mexico is my best approach here
Shakespeare + Film could work, then I just have Port and Flute

Mine was so nice as well :(

bobble

23:26

seed 811603668

mine: THUMB, FIGHTER, DUCK, NEEDLE, CRICKET, BEAT, POLICE, CODE, BATTERY
theirs: CANADA, SHAKESPEARE, GOLD, MEXICO, ICE, FILM, FLUTE
neutral: AMULANCE, SOCK, SWING, SEAL, APPLE, BUFFALO, CONDUCT
assassin: HOOD (hah! of course)

this ain't a good board
"gun" -> FIGHTER, POLICE
ooh, "cop" -> GUN, FIGHTER, POLICE (but HOOD?)
"swerve" -> DUCK, NEEDLE
BEAT and BATTERY might go together?
oh wait "karate" -> FIGHTER, DUCK, BEAT? nah
THINK FIGHTER PLEASE why would I change the tense for one word?

Sciborg

Hey, I got BEAT and BATTERY at least :p

Prince North Læraðr

I was thinking SOCK, like to punch

Sciborg

I was focusing too much on the word tense, sorry

Prince North Læraðr

Okay, caird you should probably start the game

caird coinheringaahing

Attack could've been a (5) at a stretch

Sciborg

23:27

SOCK would also have fit, yeah

bobble

POLICE, GUN, FIGHER, BEAT, BATTERY, DUCK... I had a lot of action-movie words

Sciborg

Sometimes it's a problem when words are too similar :p

Sciborg

North! We get to work together! :D

bobble

WHY AM I ALWAYS FIRST????

Prince North Læraðr

23:28

@Sciborg yas

caird coinheringaahing

Because I've known Shiro longer :p

Prince North Læraðr

ping me when bobble clues

Sciborg

I'm hype for the epic North-Sciborg team-up of the century

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I'm just hoping I don't guess the assassin again

but I"m wide awake so that should help

bobble

Blue: Leg (2)

@PrinceNorthLæraðr ^

Prince North Læraðr

23:31

Hm

Sciborg

Ooh, okay

Prince North Læraðr

FOOT

Sciborg

FOOT for sure, and maybe PANTS?

Prince North Læraðr

Oh i was tempted to say arm :P

Sciborg

But... Leg?? :p

Pant leg makes more sense to me

Prince North Læraðr

23:32

Foot and PANTS, yeah

Sciborg

I am down to guess those two

Prince North Læraðr

kk

Sciborg

do you want to do the guessing or should i?

Prince North Læraðr

You

Sciborg

FOOT

Shiro

23:33

FOOT is Blue

Sciborg

PANTS

Shiro

PANTS is Blue

Sciborg

Nice!!!!

Prince North Læraðr

I think we have hypothermia

Sciborg

[skip]

Shiro

23:33

[SKIP] doesn't appear to be on the board...

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

it's pass

Sciborg

oh, oops

[pass]

Shiro

caird coinheringaahing

Red: Suit (3)

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I'm thinking SUPERHERO because of super suits

I think suits usually have BUTTONs

and I just saw TIE

TIE i'm sure about

TIE

Shiro

23:34

TIE is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

SUPERHERO

Shiro

SUPERHERO is Yellow (neutral)
It is now Blue's turn

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

huh

Shiro

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I was relatively sure of that one

BUTTON on the backlog

oh and James BOND

Sciborg

23:35

"Where is my super suit????"

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

@Sciborg exactly

just saw that

Prince North Læraðr

"Honey, where's my super suit?"

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Still haven't seen the sequel

but I heard it was good

Sciborg

"I... put it away!!"

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

@Sciborg @PrinceNorthLæraðr You joke, but I thought of exactly that scene

and I haven't seen that movie probably since it came out

caird coinheringaahing

23:36

It came out in 2004 (maybe 2006)

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

latest since it came out on dvd

I don't watch many movies

at least not after they leave theaters

Prince North Læraðr

Ping me when it's our turn. I may have to walk my dogs

Sciborg

Will do :)

caird coinheringaahing

I think I've seen every Pixar movie multiple times within the last year :P

Prince North Læraðr

If I don't come back, please wait for me, unless it's super obvious

Sciborg

23:37

If you're not here i will wait for you, i won't guess without you

no worries!

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I think the last one I saw was Inside Out with some friends

You're never too old for those movies, but you can be too old to go to a theater by yourself to watch them

Sciborg

Buddy, I went by myself, a grown-ass adult, to watch the LEGO Movie.

caird coinheringaahing

disagrees in seeing Toy Story 4

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I remember nothing of the lego movie but the song

caird coinheringaahing

it takes a whole new level of confidence to go watch a "kids" movie by yourself

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

23:40

Confidence I don't have

caird coinheringaahing

and a whole new level of dealing with excited small children

Sciborg

I also went to see LEGO Batman, but i dragged my friend's little brother along so I could have a valid reason to see it.

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

@cairdcoinheringaahing that's a better argument against it

I'm not great with yelling kids

which is weird, because I am also, despite being 26, a very loud person

bobble

Blue: School (3)

caird coinheringaahing

@PrinceNorthLæraðr ping

Sciborg

23:41

@PrinceNorthLæraðr we have a clue :D

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

right, it was BUTTON and BOND on backlog

just writing a reminder for myself

Sciborg

I won't speculate or guess without teammate, so i'll just vibe for a bit

bobble

Did you try the sashigane yet, or are you waiting for later?

Sciborg

i'm not really sure how to do sashigane logic so i haven't gotten very far yet!

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Better than my logic of "I don' t understand any of these puzzles, so just don't do them"

Sciborg

23:45

There are chatroom logs of my first ever times solving grid deductions and learning logic, and I was absolutely the worst ever, but now that i've practiced i can solve them (mostly) by myself :D so it just takes practice!

bobble

in [grid-deduction] Puzzle Solving, 23 hours ago, by Sciborg

i'm proud that i solved this 60% by myself

Sciborg

hey, 60% is better than 0%!

caird coinheringaahing

@PrinceNorthLæraðr you still here?

Prince North Læraðr

yup

Sciborg

There's my favorite tree :D

Prince North Læraðr

23:48

BELL

Sciborg

BELL for sure

Prince North Læraðr

hm

Sciborg

What are the other two, is the question

Prince North Læraðr

table? spell? bar? concert?

Sciborg

Tempted to say TABLE because it makes sense in a school.

Prince North Læraðr

23:49

Oh shark?

Like a school of fish?

Sciborg

That seems like a big stretch

but besides BELL nothing really jumps out at me

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I am tempted to troll but I don't know how

so I won't

Prince North Læraðr

STAR?

BELL

Shiro

BELL is Blue

Sciborg

maybe STAR i guess? like star pupil?

Prince North Læraðr

23:50

Wanna go with table?

Sciborg

i guess it's the best we have, but i'm nervous

go for it

Prince North Læraðr

TABLE

Shiro

TABLE is Blue

Prince North Læraðr

okay whew

Sciborg

oh, thank God

Prince North Læraðr

23:51

SINK? hmm

Sciborg

do you want to risk STAR or just pass and think about it later?

Prince North Læraðr

Concert? Like a school concert?

Bobble was in band before

Sciborg

i'm not sure, it seems like a stretch

Prince North Læraðr

Yeah

I think better to skip

Sciborg

let's just skip and keep in mind that we missed one

Prince North Læraðr

23:52

[pass]

Shiro

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I know what I'd go for if I were on your team

Sciborg

i think CONCERT and STAR are the closest fits we came up with, but i have no idea

we might need that last word re-clued

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

BOND and BUTTON on backlog

I actually forgot again

caird coinheringaahing

Red: Squid (0)

Sciborg

23:54

heh, i like that one

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

OK so not octopus

and I must be right on the backlog

BUTTON

Shiro

BUTTON is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

BOND

Shiro

BOND is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

0 clues tell me nothing else, so I'll pass

[pass]

Shiro

23:55

Prince North Læraðr

ping me

bobble

Blue: Shrapnel (2)

Prince North Læraðr

hm

Sciborg

@PrinceNorthLæraðr ping

BOMB, of course, and then maybe LITTER?

Prince North Læraðr

yea

Sciborg

23:56

No objections?

Prince North Læraðr

plastic?

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

an octopus could hurl shrapnel at you if it wanted to

Sciborg

plastic, maybe... but is shrapnel necessarily made of plastic?

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

yes that's my best attempt at trolling

Prince North Læraðr

PVP pipes?

litter

Sciborg

23:57

hmm, true. Do you like PLASTIC or LITTER better for the second guess?

Prince North Læraðr

is prob better litter

Sciborg

Okay, I'll guess BOMB and then LITTER if that's okay

Prince North Læraðr

yea

Sciborg

And if it's not litter we'll do PLASTIC

BOMB

Shiro

BOMB is Blue

Sciborg

23:58

LITTER

Shiro

LITTER is Blue

Sciborg

Yes!!!

Prince North Læraðr

Okay

Sciborg

Do you want to guess a backlog clue or pass?

Prince North Læraðr

Do you think BOMB was school? seems dark

Sciborg

23:58

oh, god, that would be super dark....

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

If it helps, it crossed my mind too

Sciborg

i say we pass because i think this is a good lead

Prince North Læraðr

yea

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

and by "helps" i mean "helps you feel better about thinking it"

Sciborg

[pass]

Shiro
