Decent
Beer "on tap". Not in a bottle/can.
@n_palum nah, glass/draft probably would've come first, at least for me
@Sid Beer on tap/in a keg
@MikeQ lol
anyway, I don't think DRAFT was one of them
18:00
@Deusovi Oh for sure
or maybe GLASS wasn't?
I think it was...
Glass probably was..
GLASS seems more plausible though
so what could be the other one?
!board
Do we pass playing it safe and wait to see if others get narrowed down
18:01
Note that a DRAFT (or DRAUGHT) is a sip of a beverage as well.
if there was another beverage, then the clue would have been a (3)
@JanDvorak what I'm saying is that DRAFT was a coincidence - BG didn't know it was related to beverages
unlikely.
Or maybe they did.. heard it from a parent or in a restaurant
18:02
really? because he would have said BEER if he did
maybe he knows it's a beverage but doesn't know it's a beer
that would've worked for GLASS/DRAFT and would've given us DRAFT easier too
i'm off for five minutes... should be allright if you delay a bit longer then let blue have their turn
unlikely
what would be #3 then?
18:03
I don't think it's something related to a specific beverage - if it were, the specific beverage would be named
unless it doesn't come in a glass, that is
Not sure...
Port would be port wine
yeah, but WINE would work for that
Again, maybe they didn't know
I find it unlikely that he'd know that DRAFT is a beverage, but not know which one
It's hard to know that port is a beverage but not that it's a wine
Sid
Sid
18:04
Okay. So, I know nothing about books, beverages, reference to games, etc.
same for DRAFT
Sid
Sid
Need to learn those in these holidays
which is why I was thinking DRAFT was just us getting lucky and BG not knowingg
Maybe he just didn't think of giving a specific beverage? not all SMs are perfect...
...cue Jeopardy theme music...
18:04
Perfect? No. But he was thinking for a while.
Okay, that being said, what else fits
@GentlePurpleRain indeed
potentially CONCERT?
@dcfyj shh, I'm logickingg
lol, amusingly enough about things I said
The more chance of getting stuck at a failed attempt at a bigger clue, thus causing the failure to optimize the current one. Happens in programming quite often.
fair(e) also fits
(e)?
Sometimes spelled with an e
renaissance faire
should we just pass and keep it in mind?
So... you keep saying we've done it wrong and now you want to back out? :-P
18:07
I'd pass
I don't want to, but blue team seems to be getting annoyed
That's just me.
I'll get over it.
We have nothing sound to guess on imo
GPR just came back anyway he's fine
Alright then.
It just seemed like you were talking in circles, not actually going anywhere.
18:08
Apologies for the delay, blue team.
@Deusovi I think bored is the correct term
[PASS]
(and I had to re-explain things to Jan, since he didn't seem to get it the first time)
@Deusovi O_o
18:08
Take us home cat! :P
Blue: TORSO (2)
trunk
Center and trunk?
Trunk is a butt
defintiely trunk.
18:08
TRUNK
Or perhaps centaur, since it has the torso of a human
I'm not sure about center, centaur is a bit better
@JanDvorak well, I went through my logic about why I think there's another one two or three times, and you only understood it the third time, it seems - maybe my explanations were just bad, but I still had to say it again
@Deusovi I understood everything. I simply didn't agree.
18:09
^
I'm about 50/50 on center/centaur.
Do we all agree on TRUNK?
what happened?
Everyone left
trunk is already done
18:09
You already guessed trunk
oh. missed that.
Everyone was agreeing so I went ahead lol
Out of curiosity, what does Shiro do when you submit a word that isn't on the board?
I'm leaning more for centaur than center
Ignores it pretty sure.
18:10
@MikeQ considering she misses typoes, I'm sure she misses those too
@BeastlyGerbil there was a big discussion whether draft beverage was a coincidence since otherwise beer would have been a better clue.
I think centaur, yay or nay?
@JanDvorak But then you used the same logic for PORT!
and then you passed
okay...
ok, CENTAUR.
18:11
CENTAUR
Neutral
boo
[pass]
Well, we have fodder for next time.
give me a minute to think of a clue
to get the board up
18:11
At least it's not red or assassin
You don't have to pass; we're already done.
I know, I did it to get the board up
What's wrong with !board?
I can't use it
18:12
He's edgy
shiro doesn't like me
@Deusovi Do I really need to defend myself?
You have to use sudo
and/or be in the sudoers group
18:12
eh
GAME, 2
dice, fair?
Dice.. Maybe fair
why fair?
oh, fair game
Game Shark is a device you can attach to Game boys to cheat
game SHARK haha
18:13
a game can be fair, and "fair game" is a phrase
But you can WATCH a game
...it could be SHARK, actually
@n_palum nintendo's before that
shark isn't bad
Again, something that may be out of BG's age range
18:14
There are lots of options for game on the board
So Fair may be better considering BG's association with sports
I'm pretty confident about dice though - any objections?
Definitely DICE, anyway.
or CENTER which is a position in some sports
I see a handful of options up there
18:15
Wrong team GPR
DICE
lol
is red _/
What? Oh, yeah.
>.<
18:15
Sorry; in and out. Hard to focus.
I'll shut up now.
lol
Ugh there's a few options.. You can code a game, you can watch a game, game shark, fair game, block and center are terms in games, pie eating contest is a game
Huh, hadn't thought about pie
fair game, and hope it was also the third beverage?
@JanDvorak I should apologize - I probably came off as harsher than I intended to be. I didn't mean to insult you or anything.
So, sorry about that.
18:17
third? the clue only had a 2 on it
Or be a PILOT in a flight simulator which is a game according to microsoft
I think you're fine Deus.
@Deusovi Thanks :-)
@dcfyj We aren't settled whether or not Draft was intended
You could stay up all NIGHT to play a game
18:18
I still offer to use fair game + maybe beverages on a faire
Eh, I don't want any hard feelings between us. I misspoke (mistyped?) and I wanted to correct it.
Anyway, FAIR sounds good to me too.
@MikeQ game night is a thing too
Ohhh thanks.. I also like game night
tick... tock...
18:19
I like doing both Fair and Night actually..
or how about the classic game and WATCH
BG definitely doesn't know that one
hahaha MR. Game and Watch
maybe from Super Smash
game night doesn't seem that strong, but then again fair isn't perfect either.
18:19
@n_palum He's in Smash Bros.
@n_palum He does if he played Super smash
....I said that calm down
Or you could play a BLOCK puzzle game
Game Night is very much a thing, on Hasbro game boxes and such
lol, you're just relating it to everything on the board, aren't you?
18:20
I don't think I've heard of a game night before, actually
You could PORT a video game between platforms
@MikeQ what about telescope?
Family Game Night, Game Night at a bar
Game night? When you get together and play board games? Happens all the time.
Wind Waker has a telescope, and it's a game! haha
18:21
Right?
portable telescopes are a thing, yeah
@Deusovi I'll leave the choice to you
Ok, if I come up with a mock clue for Jupiter, then that's a sign the red team is taking too long
A shark is GAME if you're hunting...
Or @JanDvorak
18:22
@GentlePurpleRain Nope, actually, that's false
@GentlePurpleRain We already did game SHARK, which is actually a thing
If you don't pick, I'll pick Night over Fair first
is @deusovi gone?
18:23
Do we guess night too
assuming fair could be for beverage
lol, nice
Is that the whole board?
fair can be for both clues
18:23
@dcfyj Didn't do bolt or concert
Pass or Night, Idc
I'm sure there's a game of the movie BOLT
I meant fair primarily for game, too.
[PASS]
18:25
Rock band = CONCERT
Blue: SPINE (2)
"Game, 14"
uh
Center? Like center of the body?
18:25
A SHARK has a spine?
center? I guess?
reds need 3, blues, 4
Does a shark actually have a spine?
@gpr that's pretty tenuous
Well, I think CENTER is good from TORSO.
18:26
Oh that's right
@MikeQ Its not an invertebrate
@dcfyj I agree. But...
@dcfyj actually...
It has bones...
Or is it all cartilage?
18:27
Fish bones are a thing too
Does anything else even remotely fit?
Shall we start with CENTER?
No idea, I'm good for center though
CENTER
Pilots have spines
18:27
BOLT also has a spine, though
I think SHARK is the least irrelevant
I think SHARK is the next-best guess, even though it's pretty tenuous.
Yeah... I'm not sure what the heck the second option is
some metal concerts have spine decorations
SHARK
18:28
SHARK is neutral
bah humbug
!board
!board
Bah gumhug
I didn't think that was it lol
18:29
!unboard
@ffao feature request ^
<I'm sorry, this operation can't be undone.>
sudo unboard
@BeastlyGerbil Get er done
<OK. Undoing.>
18:30
hmmmm.....
Music, 1
sudo -rm rf wait oops
heh
sudo rm -rf
there we go
concert seems like the best choice at this point
Yeah.. not sure why we're only getting 1..
18:31
Music notes are a CODE
because you're ahead?
CONCERT
They're not, we need 3 each
its 3 needed each acrually
Music is written out in BLOCKs (right?)
18:31
Well, concert is red
@MikeQ I actually made a puzzle with a music note code
concert is red
So now they're ahead
now, do we have any outstanding clues?
I'm no longer sure TBH
May or may not, we don't really know
18:31
I'm sure that bg likes PIE
Wait, Red actually had a quick turn! Must be because Deus is AFK.
lol
Lol
Okay Jan, pass?
No more weird clues Cat! :P
Oh, n/m. It's not over yet.
18:32
Shiro is made out of CODE, sort of
We have to agonize over whether to pass for about 15 minutes...
I'm wondering if the (1) means we ought to know the rest.
I don't think so
Then [PASS]
It does mean you have 1 guess left
18:33
Alright CEO cat, the pressure is on
I think it has to be on a line by itself.
I don't think she'll show the board for that
Red: SURFACE (2)
18:33
plane
not sure
Methinks plane and block
plane seems obvious
18:34
There's also something for spine
PLANE
Hmm... I guess Jupiter doesn't have a surface, per se.
Block, then?
It's a gas giant
No, just a bunch of angry storms
18:35
Is "surface watch" a thing?
I really want to guess, but...
The phrase sounds familiar to me.
kinda like a clock face?
Not that I know of gpr
aren't all storms angry?
18:36
not really
That's a stereotype
Some of my best friends are storms
I've seen many a drizzle, not remotely angry
RACISM!!
:P
Block, or pass?
BLOCK
18:36
Blue
heyo. go for the guess?
wow mike, let's discuss please
you need 1 we need 2
18:37
Are you guys feeling anything else, from TORSO or SPINE?
I would say pass. But that's risky.
We could just guess randomly.
But if you're wrong our chances go up a lot more
possibly pilot, but I'd rather pass and avoid possibly hitting the assassin
Why pilot?
Jupiter has both, actually. Or, had.
and yes, so does a pilot
Less than 10% chance of hitting the assassin.
18:38
Either way, I'd rather pass
exactly 10%, actually
Mike? Pass or guess?
9.(19)%, actually
@ffao Right. Was looking at the board above.
small chance of hitting assassin, but much higher chance that BG comes up with a clue for the remaining 2
18:38
oh, wait, block
So guess, then?
@JanDvorak learn with me, if you're going to be a smartass, at least be right :P
lol
Process of elimination? It's probably not pie, night, jupiter, or port.
18:39
Because those could match Red clues?
Bingo. Also unlikely to be code.
I still think passing is a better choice
Which leaves PILOT, PLANE, BOLT, WATCH.
We did plane. I see it as PILOT > WATCH > BOLT, but I'm nowhere sure enough to guess. So I vote to pass.
Aside from the assassin if we miss, we help red team, one way or another
18:41
right.
and we guarantee the win for them if we hit one of their words
So, not PILOT, because that would have been easy to clue with PLANE.
You also help the red team if you hit the assassin :-P
Ah, good point
18:41
[PASS]
come on reds
Planet, 1
JUPITER
18:42
BG WE STILL NEED ONE
@_@
Just the spot :)
yes 1 left now
that leaves us with one to go. What clues do we have left?
Time to guess, @n_palum
lol
18:42
I'd go back to Night for Game night..
They have to guess is the fun part
I totally know what it is.
what what is?
PIE is the tastiest option and therefore the correct one
The last red one.
18:43
ah
I don't know, I just know.
is neutral
:(
mwahaha!
18:43
woot!
You can't give us a sad face
Bring it home!
We were left hanging with two 1 clues
He probably couldn't link them
I have every reason to have given that clue
18:44
I've had that happen a fair bit
Okay, @BusinessCat.
Blue: ASTRONOMY (1)
If deus was here we probably would have won
That could be night or telescope
18:44
Blue
Oh gee thanks
Oh wait nvm
!board
@MikeQ night was guess lol
18:44
The most obvious choice.
what was the last red?
The last Red was PORT?
I assume port because port wine
last red word was PORT which was the intended one for beverage yes
18:45
for beverage?
Hoping you'd realise
port and draft?
So, I wanted to clue GEOMTERY for a few of them
then you should have given WINE
no it was port and glass
18:45
So how would deus have got that?! IIII said port!
draft beer is not a wine
But I was worried you'd go for PI -> PIE
Although draft wine is an interesting concept
@n_palum oh was that you? thought it was deus
Because just my luck that would happen
18:45
you could have gone with "space station", beastly
He disagreed with me!
it was deus with the draft thoughts
@BeastlyGerbil yeah, wine is a better word for that
Was PIE the assassin?
I also said draft, he was disagreeing
18:46
PIE
Pie was the assassin
yes pie was assassin
!board
Because it was the most delicious!
18:46
space station may not be legal
Or just alcohol in general.. I probably could have figured out draft/port/glass
ISS is a thing/proper noun so
Hmm... I wonder...
I take it @BeastlyGerbil doesn't know what draft beer is though
PIE
What happens now
Center was intended for TWO clues before you finally guessed it
18:46
Yum! You're dead
we need to standardize which dictionary phrases are allowed...
Shiro's not that smart. Just marks it.
Made my life difficult
space station is defined in my dictionary
@BusinessCat torso and spine isn't very good for center though
[pass]
18:47
oh like that por
t
Pole was supposed to be antarctica, iron, center
yeah maybe
center pole? I guess?
pole/center doesn't seem that great
18:47
yeah...
pole/center seems fine to me
but hey, we've had beverage :-)
How so?
polar coordinates and stuff?
ehh
18:49
let's just standardize one online dictionary
why?
all I could find define "space station" but don't define "body part"
I'd allow body part
yeah, we don't
I wouldn't, it's not really a phrase
18:50
pretty sure it's been already declared already allowed
what if I write it as bodypart?
@ffao I know that, why would we?
@JanDvorak That's not a word I'm pretty sure
Noun: body part (plural body parts)
  1. (anatomy) Any part of an animal organism, such as an organ, limb or extremity.
  2. 1985, Experimental aging research, Volume 11
  3. Eighteen of the Alzheimer elderly were able to identify at least ten body-parts.
  4. 1997, Gerald Thorn, Phil Embleton, Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding
  5. HEAVY DUTY The low-set, high-intensity system (1 to 3 sets per bodypart) was popularized by Dr. Arthur Jones, inventor of the Nautilus equipment.
(5 more not shown…)
Justbecauseyoudon'tsusespacesdoesn'tmakeitoneword.
lol
ExceptforGerman
18:51
@JanDvorak Wikipedia a dictionary does not make
Let's change the rule to "terms defined on Wiktionary"
or "on wikipedia"
uh, no
VTC too broad
As I said, wikipedia is not a dictionary
18:52
it's less confusing than to refer yourself to some nebulous hypothetical generic dictionary.
If we standardize to a dictionary I'd rather use merriam-webster or the like
of which real dictionaries are just approximations
Wikitionary has some... strange things in it sometimes
I don't like M-W
So?
It's a published dictionary
18:53
sudo make new-game
Wikipedia is not
game new make sudo
M-W has "beauty part" in itself
and yet I'm sure I'd be shouted at for it
°\ hand down i'm out
I did say, "or the like" it doesn't have to be merriam-webster specifically
18:54
ok, let's keep to our generic dictionary then
Which one? My generic dictionary includes "body part"
@BeastlyGerbil o⌿ hands crossed, timeout
I'd rather not standardize or if we do, use a published dictionary rather than something like "Wiktionary"
does Alphabet put out a dictionary yet? We let it control everything else in our lives :)
18:55
@Sconibulus lol
I think alphabet just outsources it for now
What's wrong with wiktionary?
like if you search for "define X" it takes the definition from somewhere else
everything
18:56
^
@ffao oh, TIL
... oh. By Alphabet you mean Google
Role call for new game. And then we can decide SMs
I'll sm
I volunteer as sm
18:57
I can sm
Alphabet is Google's parent company, it is not Google
Jan, Myself, Lithos, Dc, ffao, Cat, Mike, scon
@MikeQ you volunteer as tribute?
DC/MQ are SMs
18:57
@KritixiLithos they don't make it too well known, though
I thought Google controlled everything, including our minds
@GentlePurpleRain @thecoder16 in or out
I am assuming Deus is out for the time being.
@BusinessCat that's just what google wants you to think
I can spectate if we're seven
18:57
not in now, failing to create a smart date class
Jan you can be yellow team
@JanDvorak odd or even doesn't matter too much, join in, lol mike
We're at 8
OK, I'll pla
ooh can i be yellow team
18:58
there are 7 yellows right? Could that be a third team in theory?
@thecoder16 I doubt you'll win though.
i try to lead everyone astray if all yellows then i win
Scon yes but they wouldn't have a turn
in theory, but they would have a huge advantage in practice, I think
e.g, we have another 12 person game
18:59
Computer! Activate new game!
!newgame dcfyj,mike,n_p,scon,cat,ffao,lithos
Let's try out a 3-team game
RED: mike, lithos, n_p, cat
no turn, i just try to lead people astray
BLUE: dcfyj, scon, ffao
18:59
not nearly enough people
