k then
BEIJING
and the missing asteroid word I'm sure was actually ICE, so I think we're done
so
[PASSING]
Hi Mithrandir, you'll be joining team blue!
BLUE: boboquack, Rubio, Helka Homba, Mithrandir
07:03
@Rubio (not a hint) yeah, I haven't done much space science
Space science is so much fun!
Sid
Sid
Okay, @ffao you're up..
RED: Bind, 3
TGE is awesome, but I can't solve a thing.
07:07
@ffao Lost the seed in a device jump, can you please re-send
Just !seed it
Sid
Sid
The right question there is: "Does anybody not like TGE's puzzles?"
!seed
...
07:08
Well, can you one-time-secret the seed at least
I think I gave the wrong advice...
Sid
Sid
Anyway, Bolt?
Did game just explode?
um. what
07:10
Well, if we can expect people not to cheat, we can fix the game
Sid
Sid
BOLT
for the record, "!recall" is the command you wanted
red
Maybe !seed #enter seed here
too much effort reinputting everyone's guesses
07:10
yes, that's how to repair this
let's just take screenshots manually for now, should be at most 1 or 2
Sorry guys
Sid
Sid
what else for bind?
I almost took a screenshot of my colored board, lol
07:12
That would be fine. Posting it afterwards wouldn't.
Sid
Sid
@Wen ?
@Sid tie
Oh
paper, duh
Sid
Sid
duh. of course.
Paper
neutral
sorry :P
Sid
Sid
07:14
... What?
Binder paper?
Probably band and something else
@Wen1now bind was the clue
Thanks, fixed
As in rubber band?
Sid
Sid
Well, if we have a chance, we will see band..
07:15
I think that counts as a dictionary phrase
Blue 3, red 2, yes?
yes
Brake light, 3
07:17
grass?
As in sea grass
LASER
blue too
and now I'm lost. hehe
07:18
Erm
Model as in car model?
in that case, Tablet because they're light
and easily br[e]akable. (heh)
Man, this game was fun
Brake != break
Yeah I know. hehe
I vote model
Sid
Sid
07:22
I vote passing
brake light to vehicle to model is 2 jumps away, and I don't like it.
I'd rather pass than play model.
Well ok, pass, but they so close
@Mithrandir any thoughts here?
welp.
[PASSING]
Sid
Sid
oops..
07:25
right. thanks Shiro. ;)
RED: Bird, 1
Sid
Sid
... Duck is a bird?
no, it's a marsupial
What? Have you never watched Monty Python??
@boboquack Good point
07:27
Witches are very clearly birds.
Duck, band
DUCK -> BAND
Sid
Sid
yep..
@Rubio well, they both fly.
Sid
Sid
BAND
@Mithrandir no, no, no - they both float.
07:28
red
Sid
Sid
@Wen go for it
FIne..
duck
Oh, sorry\
red, good game blue o/
Sid
Sid
gg
😔 🦆
07:29
I don't know how Rubio got tablet from brake light
but it was right
I was trying one of TGEs puzzles
@ffao Wth
I reallly want to !finalboard it
I had a feeling.
07:30
Hey @ffao Do you still have the seed
@Rubio I was intending light as in screen light (glow)
Sid
Sid
Okay okay... I am sorry.
I clearly have no idea about Geography
But, I am damn sure that Middle East is no Europe
I basically had the idea that Middle East meant all central Asian countries, like Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Israel, etc
seed was 961666474
assassin was mouse, so I couldn't clue animal
(and I expected you to guess paper for bind, so I was basically hoping for blue to fail so I could finish with bird)
Sid
Sid
07:32
and with that, I am out. Good game folks.
I would have done fasten, but that's too close to van
best to lead you towards neutral
Well, I'm off for about 10-15 minutes, will be back
Okay have fun everyone
I should have done Machine, 3 :P
08:04

2v2! anyone else?
15:33
!newgame dc, de, cat, code, jan
RED: de, cat, jan
BLUE: dc, code
RED spymaster only, please click on this link to see the seed: https://onetimesecret.com/secret/klusmxb7rcpy9c4myvn0t7hsauybjei
BLUE spymaster only, please click on this link to see the seed: https://onetimesecret.com/secret/tqp92gy5v5ujjpacn5aitrgfgrfxwuc

Please save the seed somewhere! As a last resort if any of you happens to forget the seed, you can type !recall to get a new link.
BLUE goes first!
Why isn't code shortened to cd?
hmm idk
dc, de, ct, cd, jn
there we go
You could save 2 bytes by doing that
15:34
@BusinessCat lmao
4. Don't forget the a's off my and cat's names
if i wanted to save bytes i would change the command to !n 5
Does that actually work?
also, why that space?
also, why enter the number of players?
Anyway, dc is up
15:35
okay let's do this with metagolfscript #24444
there, done
Golfscript is too long, I should make metajelly
metametametagolfscript
BLUE: SPHERE (2)
@Deusovi can you pin teams?
BALL
blue
15:37

Red

It's nice how we're going from the bottom
Let's get some words that aren't on the bottom row
15:40
BLUE: OCEAN (2)
@KritixiLithos hop in, blue is in disadvantage
blue
OCTOPUS
Blue
Didn't realize you were by yourself
15:41
am i stupid or is there really no sphere here
I would answer that, but that would be cheating
lol
unless @KritixiLithos wants to hop in?
I could answer, but that would help not-my team
15:42
lol
eyes are spherical
!join lithos
Hi lithos, you'll be joining team blue!

Hi GentlePurpleRain, you'll be joining team red!
@thecoder16 I needed a blue team post to pin it...
15:45
Just like I need a red team one now
!joinred bob
RED: de, cat, jan, GentlePurpleRain, bob
back in a minute - sorry for the delay
just ... scroll up
15:45
!leave bob
RED: Deusovi, Business Cat, Jan Dvorak, GentlePurpleRain
@JanDvorak it would be missing people if I did that
Why so?
15:46
gpr's join didn't cause a red team roster post because he did it right after I got my blue team post, so he would've been missing from it
rate limit. Thanks.
I'm all for abbreviations, but I when they get too short, it's hard to know what they're for. Is de Deusovi? dc = dcfyj?
yeah
15:48
yeah, heh
You would be GP
@GentlePurpleRain well, the original was de, dc, cd, ct, jn
Maybe we should go to single characters. Deusovi can be D and dcfyj can be d.
back
The other newcomer is KL
15:49
yeah
@GentlePurpleRain haha yeah
That's the spirit of golf
I have an app to generate abbreviations for set items. Should I run it over this list of people?
that would be interesting
We're not all golfers, you know. I'm generally in favour of verbosity.
15:50
make sure to use our full usernames
@thecoder16 Interesting, but not useful.
@GentlePurpleRain same
raise your hand if you DIDN't come from PPCG
o/
15:50
I'm just kidding here, I prefer using the full names as well
this is a Puzzling room, you know. PPCG are just leeching off us for fun and games
yup
15:51
PPCG requires skill
that's why i came here
@thecoder16 '
what, and puzzles don't?
well, not my type of skill then
@Deusovi I came from PPCG...
b business cat
c dcfyj
d deusovi
g gentlepurplerain
j jan dvorak
k kritixi lithos
t thecoder16
lmao dcfyj is c
15:52
Deusovi, aren't you supposed to be giving a clue?
d was taken
I'm thinking, sorry.
Why not d for dcfyj, and e for Deusovi?
deusovi couldn't get e in the first pass, because gentle also has an e as his second letter.
after the first pass, deusovi was de while dc got c and everyone else got their first letters
15:53
i was just joking by the way, in case i offended puzzling
pass 0 was trimming everyone to their first two letters
why 2?
@thecoder16 We don't get offended that easily.
another reason i'm here rather than PPCG
It trims one letter at a time, but nothing interesting happened before 3->2
If we run the script without preference for first letters, we get this:
b business cat
f dcfyj
d deusovi
g gentlepurplerain
j jan dvorak
x kritixi lithos
t thecoder16
15:55
Wait, why f and not c?
Why x for Kritixi?
give it something confusing!
probably 'cause c was taken by thecoder
X is the first letter that occurs only in that name
deusovi, duesovi, deuovis, devious, duseovi
see what happens!
15:57
@thecoder16 Have you heard where Deusovi's name originates?
yes, one reason i put it in there
@thecoder16 The first iteration for that is euso/ues/uos/vo/se, which further reduces down to eu/ue/o/v/s
Red: EMPHASIS, 2
15:58
POINT?
CAPITAL?
I suppose, not really much else
I would go with CAPITAL for sure. It's Deus's favourite form of emphasis. ;)
I can't see any real good words, but I agree with point
