Codenames

Jan Dvorak

16:00

capital letters also good

GentlePurpleRain

...maybe FORCE?

Jan Dvorak

CAPITAL

Deusovi

Red.

Jan Dvorak

force is interesting.

GentlePurpleRain

I'm kind of up in the air between FORCE and POINT.

maybe SCALE as well?

(SCALE as in size)

Jan Dvorak

16:01

@Cat point or force?

scale as in size, how does that match emphasis?

GentlePurpleRain

Well, something would have more emphasis if it was at a larger scale (e.g. text on a page).

maybe that's reaching too much...

Jan Dvorak

oh

GentlePurpleRain

@BusinessCat Any input?

Jan Dvorak

bold text uses the <strong> tag, giving points to force

Business Cat

I'm leaning more toward point

Jan Dvorak

16:03

FORCE

Deusovi

Red.

Jan Dvorak

oops, missed cat's input

Business Cat

Or force is fine too

GentlePurpleRain

Is there anything missed from previously?

Jan Dvorak

stove(2) is covered

GentlePurpleRain

16:04

So then, pass?

Jan Dvorak

[PASS]

yep

Shiro

Jan Dvorak

this ruins the striping, though

dcfyj

thinking

BLUE: CAR (2)

Sid

!join

Shiro

16:07

Hi Sid, you'll be joining team blue!

BLUE: dcfyj, thecoder16, Kritixi Lithos, Sid

dcfyj

@Sid moving on from ogres and onto codenames?

Business Cat

Mammoths were like cars for cavemen

Sid

that game is hard

Like terribly hard

dcfyj

Yes, it is

Deusovi

Yes. It is very hard.

dcfyj

16:08

It took me a while a finish it

Jan Dvorak

BTW, who's found it notable that there are both a boot and a shoe on the board?

Kritixi Lithos

boot

dcfyj

Over all though, I think it took me 3ish hours?

Kritixi Lithos

maybe jack?

dcfyj

For 7 levels that's rather long

Sid

16:09

It took me more than 90 minutes to get through that 4th level.

thecoder16

i say jack

Jan Dvorak

Drivers have all sorts of names

Sid

Jack sounds okay to me

GentlePurpleRain

Yeah, the driver could be "Jim", not "Jack."

Business Cat

I don't think only people named Jack drive cars

Kritixi Lithos

16:10

okay then

jack

dcfyj

blue

Kritixi Lithos

now boot?

thecoder16

jack as in jacking a car though

Sid

why boot?

Carjacking is a crime, if I am not wrong

Kritixi Lithos

boot = trunk of a car

thecoder16

16:10

yeah but just for support

never mind now

Jan Dvorak

but so is hijacking

Kritixi Lithos

it's just UK vs US english

Sid

Ah, okay. That is a nice way to avoid shoe.

Kritixi Lithos

let's do it then?

Sid

boot

Deusovi

16:11

Red!

Sid

... what?

Jan Dvorak

yay!

Kritixi Lithos

D:

Jan Dvorak

also, what?

!board

Shiro

Business Cat

16:12

Isn't a boot that thing they put over the wheel so you can't drive away?

Jan Dvorak

Maybe that's a shoe?

Deusovi

Red: Instrument, 1

Business Cat

Piano I presume

Jan Dvorak

yep

GentlePurpleRain

Must be.

PIANO

Deusovi

16:13

Red.

Jan Dvorak

I'm wondering why we got a 1-clue

GentlePurpleRain

Me too.

Jan Dvorak

pass, I guess?

Business Cat

Bad board I guess? Also we're ahead

GentlePurpleRain

Maybe Deus has a 2-fer queued up for the last one.

Jan Dvorak

16:13

[PASS]

Shiro

Sid

maybe Deus thinks we can't pull off a (4) clue.

Jan Dvorak

he would be right

GentlePurpleRain

It would only need to be (3).

Blue gave us one.

dcfyj

BLUE: EXPLODE (1)

thecoder16

16:14

...

missile right

Jan Dvorak

sweet

Kritixi Lithos

missile

Sid

Yeah. Go for it.

GentlePurpleRain

Maybe MOSCOW?

Jan Dvorak

explode, with a bomb being yellow?

Kritixi Lithos

16:14

what do you guys think for car?

thecoder16

missile for sure

GentlePurpleRain

I've seen a TABLET explode...

Kritixi Lithos

missile

Business Cat

A Samsung tablet might explode

dcfyj

blue

Sid

16:15

Very stretchy..

Car might be moscow because you can travel to Moscow through Car?

Kritixi Lithos

what about car?

Jan Dvorak

I thought that was a phone

GentlePurpleRain

@Sid I can't...

Business Cat

Close enough

thecoder16

not sure about anything

Kritixi Lithos

16:16

@Sid eh, very stretchy

Jan Dvorak

I will note that blue can only guess twice anyways

Sid

we should just pass. We are losing anyways.

Jan Dvorak

one guess left

Business Cat

Go for the glorious defeat of wild guessing the assassin

Jan Dvorak

+1

thecoder16

16:17

+1

GentlePurpleRain

Cars sometimes need a good VACUUM cleaning...

Jan Dvorak

I'd love to see a round one loss by stabbing the assassin

thecoder16

yes

Kritixi Lithos

I also thought of vacuum

Deusovi

@JanDvorak that's happened

GentlePurpleRain

16:17

DOGs love riding in cars...

Jan Dvorak

nice.

dcfyj

@Deusovi more than once

thecoder16

i feel like the starboard trend is to star everyone saying they are an idiot, lol

Sid

Let's just pass..

[pass]

Shiro

Deusovi

16:18

Red: LIVING, 2

Jan Dvorak

nice

GentlePurpleRain

DOG

CRICKET

Kritixi Lithos

knew it

gg

GentlePurpleRain

Any objections?

Jan Dvorak

nice way to dodge mammoths, which are dead

Kritixi Lithos

16:18

nice ending

GentlePurpleRain

DOG

Deusovi

Red.

GentlePurpleRain

CRICKET

Deusovi

Red!

Sid

Jan Dvorak

GentlePurpleRain

!finalboard

Shiro

Deusovi

BOOT and SHOE were really hard

Jan Dvorak

Yep

Deusovi

16:19

before the screw-up, my plan was LIVING, then BLACK

both 2s - BLACK for BOOT/PIANO

Jan Dvorak

black boot?

Sid

what was car supposed to be?

Deusovi

yeah, I honestly don't get CAR

and I saw the board!

GentlePurpleRain

I assume SHOE.

Jan Dvorak

I guess jack/shoe?

Kritixi Lithos

16:20

how shoe?

Jan Dvorak

jack being that lifting thing, and shoe being that not-driving thing

GentlePurpleRain

The thing they put on your tire to stop you driving if you have a ticket.

dcfyj

car: jack and vacuum

Deusovi

I'd also considered SUPER MARIO MAKER, 2 for dog/boot

Jan Dvorak

why vacuum?

Sid

16:21

vacuum?

dcfyj

a carjack and a car vacuum are both things

Deusovi

but wasn't sure if you all would get it, and wasn't sure how to clue CRICKET/PIANO afterwards

GentlePurpleRain

@Deusovi I wouldn't have had a clue.

Jan Dvorak

I haven't touched SMM

dcfyj

I specifically didn't clue mammoth to give Deusovi a harder time

Business Cat

16:21

I don't get the dog part, but the boot yeah

GentlePurpleRain

ORCHESTRA for CRICKET/PIANO... :P

Sid

@dcfyj yeah, well, without google, that is hard to know

dcfyj

That board was evil though

Deusovi

@dcfyj yeah, I know - I was actually thinking of giving the clue WOOLLY, 0 at the end

dcfyj

@Sid you've never heard of a car vacuum?

Jan Dvorak

16:22

"car vacuum" gives me hand-held vacuum cleaners

Deusovi

oh, and I agree - evil board

dcfyj

@Deusovi lol

again?

Jan Dvorak

I love evil boards

GentlePurpleRain

Again? I can SM.

Sid

o/

(I can SM)

Business Cat

16:22

Actually doesn't SMM have some weird dog in the editor or something?

Deusovi

Sure, I'd be up for another game!

Jan Dvorak

I'm leaving in 35 minutes or so

Sid

I mean, I can't do worse than today morning

Deusovi

@BusinessCat Yeah, that's what I was hypothetically going for

Business Cat

I don't own it, but I've watched a lot of videos of it

GentlePurpleRain

16:23

@Jan join in until then.

dcfyj

@JanDvorak around here we have places that you can pull up and pay to vacuum your car

Jan Dvorak

aye

oh, those things at a car wash station

dcfyj

I can sm or guess, whichever

@JanDvorak I was talking about places that only have the vacuum, but that too

Shiro

BLUE goes first!

Jan Dvorak

I hope it's okay if I multitask codenames + Helka Homba's LP?

thecoder16

!join

dcfyj

16:24

give us clue (9)!

Shiro

Hi thecoder16, you'll be joining team blue!

BLUE: GentlePurpleRain, dcfyj, Deusovi, thecoder16

Deusovi

Helka Homba's LP?

dcfyj

@JanDvorak never! :P

Jan Dvorak

@Deusovi Minecraft, survival, ep48

dcfyj

LP = Let's play

Jan Dvorak

16:25

one farm per chunk

Deusovi

oh yeah, I should watch that sometime

Jan Dvorak

I don't think they make long-play disks anymore.

GentlePurpleRain

SOLITARY CONFINEMENT (2)

dcfyj

not sure what else...

Rubio

!join

Shiro

Hi Rubio, you'll be joining team red!

RED: Sid, Jan Dvorak, Business Cat, Rubio

dcfyj

deck -> solitaire?

Deusovi

ooh

it's possible

dunno though

dcfyj

16:29

Not overly fond of that connection though

Rubio

@GentlePurpleRain You missed me. Aim better next time.

Deusovi

ALIEN(ation)?

Jan Dvorak

Greece once they kick it out of EU?

dcfyj

@JanDvorak that's lovely, but you're not on our team

We can still see that if we want to :P

Business Cat

Solitary Confinement is a white enchantment in MtG => IVORY

Jan Dvorak

16:30

But you don't want to see it :P

thecoder16

i can't think of anthing

dcfyj

lol

@BusinessCat it is, true

Deusovi

for some reason I don't think GPR plays MtG

dcfyj

neither do I lol

I think deck is the strongest link we have

Jan Dvorak

Actually, I can see better

Deusovi

16:31

really? I like ALIEN better

Jan Dvorak

I might be lying, though

dcfyj

Certainly not politically correct, but perhaps nut?

Deusovi

Oh, as in "crazy"? Hm.

dcfyj

yeah

Deusovi

I like ALIEN > NUT > DECK.

dcfyj

16:33

!board

Shiro

dcfyj

I'm more leaning DECK > ALIEN > NUT

coder?

Deusovi

Really? I don't think GPR would do a pun clue.

thecoder16

i would go alien

dcfyj

shrug

2 v 1

Deusovi

16:34

ALIEN

dcfyj

ALIEN

GentlePurpleRain

blue

Deusovi

[passing]

Rubio

insofar as this game goes, none - neither is a "semantic" clue

Shiro

Deusovi

16:34

^^

dcfyj

fair enough, that's (in theory) both our solitary clues

Jan Dvorak

Does that mean puns are disallowed?

Deusovi

but "solitaire" and "solitary" both mean "alone", so it would be allowed

I say "pun" because the two words are related, but not the same

Sid

Red: Elephant, 2

Rubio

IVORY

GentlePurpleRain

16:35

red

Jan Dvorak

then nut

Rubio

nut?

why nut?

Jan Dvorak

or tail

Sid

Red.

Kritixi Lithos

elephants tribes have queens, just like bee hives

dcfyj

16:36

@Sid I'm guessing that was directed at ivory

Business Cat

I think Elephant Grass might be a thing

Jan Dvorak

tail is better, but elephants like peanuts according to some media

Sid

Yes. Lag issues

Rubio

I think tail is probably better

any objections to tail?

dcfyj

o/

Rubio

16:37

any relevant obje... oh nevermind

TAIL

GentlePurpleRain

red

thecoder16

!leave thecoder16

Shiro

BLUE: GentlePurpleRain, dcfyj, Deusovi

Rubio

[PASSING]

thecoder16

gtg for a while

dcfyj

16:37

Just the two of us, again

Shiro

Jan Dvorak

but you keep your combo bonus

dcfyj

lol

Rubio

*manually swaps Rubio and dcfyj*

Jan Dvorak

hey!

Rubio

16:39

buahaha

dcfyj

@Rubio While that works in text, it doesn't work in reality

Rubio

Probably for the best. I'm having a bad fur day anyway.

dcfyj

My brain is not liking typing lately...

Jan Dvorak

until Rubio posts and pins the new roster, at least.

@dcfyj speech recognition?

dcfyj

@JanDvorak He wouldn't have to, he could just edit the current one

Rubio

16:40

Rubio can just edit Shiro's text, if Rubio really wanted

GentlePurpleRain

thinking

Rubio

^^

Jan Dvorak

or that

dcfyj

@JanDvorak would not be typing

Jan Dvorak

@dcfyj hence I'm suggesting it

dcfyj

16:40

meh, too much of a pain

GentlePurpleRain

HATCH (2)

Jan Dvorak

there's also Dasher

dcfyj

!board

Shiro

dcfyj

@JanDvorak and prancer

Jan Dvorak

16:41

I mean the tool

Deusovi

ok what is up with these clues

dcfyj

:P

Rubio

Dunder and Stupid and Vomit and Blitzen?

Jan Dvorak

text entry by moving your mouse

dcfyj

@JanDvorak ew

@Deusovi crickets come from eggs?

I'm assuming queen is one of them

Deusovi

16:42

yeah, I was thinking CRICKET could be one of them

Jan Dvorak

Better than having to type without fingers.

Deusovi

oh, CRICKET+QUEEN? sure

dcfyj

true

Jan Dvorak

Might also work well as a phone keyboard

dcfyj

QUEEN > CRICKET to me

Deusovi

16:42

me too

Rubio

trees hatch from NUTs, just sayin'

dcfyj

I don't see anything that relates to the other definition of hatch

Jan Dvorak

Also, it's kinda fun even if you're healthy

dcfyj

QUEEN

GentlePurpleRain

red. :(

Rubio

16:44

muahahaa

dcfyj

well then

Jan Dvorak

nice

dcfyj

!board

Rubio

for the record GPR I think both your clues so far were just fine.

Shiro

Rubio

16:45

Unless I'm very wrong about what you're clueing, but I don't think I am

Jan Dvorak

I agree with Rubio

GentlePurpleRain

@Rubio @Jan Apparently you should have been on my team... :)

dcfyj

lol

Jan Dvorak

It also tells us what to avoid in our guesses :P

Rubio

hey, I tried. Blame the one who just gave the wrong word. *eyes @dcfyj*

Sid

16:46

Red: Fairy, 2

dcfyj

queen (bee/ant) lays eggs that hatch, a perfectly logical and viable link

Jan Dvorak

But everyone is to blame, everyone agreed with him.

Business Cat

Bottle

dcfyj

everyone being one other person?

Rubio

yesterday, by Gareth McCaughan

In fact, blame Deusovi for everything. I do.

^ relevant

dcfyj

16:46

lol

Deusovi

always relevant

Jan Dvorak

true

fairies are basically tiny angels

dcfyj

I blame deusovi for me finishing ogres are like onions!

Rubio

yeah i'll go for that.

Sconibulus

Hi everyone

dcfyj

16:47

'lo

Rubio

heya @scon

why bottle, Cat?

Business Cat

Fairy in a bottle

Jan Dvorak

I'm also thinking glass / bottle as a means to trap fairies

Business Cat

In LoZ

Rubio

that's a thing? i've never heard that

Jan Dvorak

16:48

yep

Business Cat

Have you played any Zelda games?

Rubio

ohhhhh. ok yeah

Sconibulus

!join

Shiro

Hi Sconibulus, you'll be joining team blue!

Rubio

now we're betting on whether or not GPR has, though :)

Shiro

16:48

BLUE: GentlePurpleRain, dcfyj, Deusovi, Sconibulus

Jan Dvorak

Also works in Thaumcraft for aura nodes

Rubio

I'd be more inclined to go with WAVE (the magic wand)

Jan Dvorak

ANGEL

dcfyj

@Sconibulus we have a pending HATCH (2) clue (we need both)

Business Cat

Not sure if GPR has but Sid made the clue

GentlePurpleRain

16:49

@Sconibulus Hopefully you can read my mind better than Deus/dcfyj...

Sid

@Rubio except your SM is me..

GentlePurpleRain

ANGEL is red.

Rubio

er. Hi. that's what I meant.

Sid

Red.

Sconibulus

Cricket seems like an animal that hatches

Jan Dvorak

16:49

wave isn't bad, but I still prefer bottle

Sconibulus

Nuthatch is a bird that also hatches?

Deusovi

nuthatch???

dcfyj

shrug

Rubio

welp.

I'd give wave 70% and bottle 60% personally, but I'll go with the consensus opinion.

Jan Dvorak

cat?

Business Cat

16:50

Why wave

dcfyj

1 min ago, by Rubio

I'd be more inclined to go with WAVE (the magic wand)

Jan Dvorak

because magic wands. Seems weak to me.

Rubio

fairies are, and I mean like always, waving their magic wands.

It's What They Do. hehe

Business Cat

Yeah I'm not confident on that

dcfyj

@Rubio You need to read up on your mythos mehinks

Rubio

16:51

meh. Depends which types of fairies. but ok.

Jan Dvorak

Feel free to 10% shout at me if this fails:

Rubio

Go with bottle if you think it's right.

Jan Dvorak

BOTTLE

Sconibulus

@Deusovi it's a bird, seems slightly better than the various hatch-types one might find on a ship (deck/hole?)

Sid

...

dcfyj

16:52

@Rubio Also stop watching Winx Club

GentlePurpleRain

BOTTLE is blue

Business Cat

Oh no

Sid

blue..

Deusovi

@Sconibulus that's a bird? never heard of it

dcfyj

woohoo!

Thanks for paying us back ^^

Jan Dvorak

16:52

got to go soon, so be quick in your shouting :-D

Business Cat

I thought it was bottle too.

GentlePurpleRain

@dcfyj Not quite. They at least got one right before giving one up...

Rubio

Meh. :)

Sconibulus

specifically called out in Monty Python's bookshop sketch along with the Gannet

dcfyj

@Sconibulus I didn't think of a hatch in a deck, although I did think of that definition of hatch

Sconibulus

16:54

I think there's often a hatch to go belowdecks

Jan Dvorak

!leave

Shiro

RED: Sid, Business Cat, Rubio

dcfyj

@Sconibulus by the way, your first name shows up in your emails

GentlePurpleRain

HATCH (3)

Deusovi

Welp.

Rubio

dcfyj

Sconibulus

ok, we like Deck, Nut, and Cricket I guess?

Deusovi

Yeah, let's go with those.

Jan Dvorak

Nice clue :-D

Shiro

16:55

Deusovi

DECK

dcfyj

I don't see anything better

Sid

GentlePurpleRain

DECK is blue

Deusovi

NUT

dcfyj

16:55

NUT

GentlePurpleRain

NUT is red

Sid

Red.

Sconibulus

well, to redo the clue our discussion pretty much had to be spot-on

Deusovi

...what.

Sid

Thanks again

dcfyj

16:56

lol

Sconibulus

...oh

Deusovi

WHAT.

dcfyj

no more hatches GPR

Rubio

hah.

dcfyj

It's clearly not working

Rubio

16:56

They'll eventually get it.

!board

Shiro

GentlePurpleRain

I'm sorry, all. I'm only about 75% here, and obviously missed some discussion. :(

Jan Dvorak

OK, I might stay for an extra quickie round

Sid

Red: Mediterranean Sea, 2

Rubio

GREECE

dcfyj

16:57

That should be easy

Rubio

wave?

GentlePurpleRain

@GentlePurpleRain I'll totally take the blame for that last one.

Business Cat

And wave

Jan Dvorak

wave

Sid

Greece is Red.

Rubio

16:57

WAVE

GentlePurpleRain

WAVE is red.

Sid

Wave is also Red.

dcfyj

need a 4 or 5 clue!

GentlePurpleRain

OK, 5 vs 2. We've totally got this.

Jan Dvorak

Quickie round done, cya

Rubio

16:58

welp. since I'm pretty certain WAVE was the fairy clue I think we're done

dcfyj

5 v 1 you mean

Sconibulus

well, he have 2 hatches left I think

so an 'unlimited' is probably 3

dcfyj

probably, but we'd have to figure out what the hatches are...

Sid

Red hasn't passed yet.

Rubio

[PASSING]

we have now

Shiro

16:58

dcfyj

@Sid They were pretty likely to

GentlePurpleRain

MAGICIAN (unlimited)

dcfyj

cloak

Deusovi

cloak, definitely

CLOAK

GentlePurpleRain

CLOAK is blue

Deusovi

16:59

glad you spent some of your precious thought time looking for the infinity symbol

dcfyj

I'm thinking square for some reason...

and chair

Deusovi

...square?

GentlePurpleRain

@Deusovi Took about 5 seconds.

dcfyj

I don't know...
