Mithrandir

Zani Xu

20:57

we have three people

Mithrandir

pokes @gen and @Erik

Zani Xu

Should I poke everyone else?

Mithrandir

I poked GPR and Erik because I know that they're often around now and are currently in the room.

Zani Xu

Pokes @dcfyj

Erik the Outgolfer

peeks @Mith

Mithrandir

21:09

@EriktheOutgolfer is that a "I'm in"?

Erik the Outgolfer

0/

^ that's the "I'm in"

Mithrandir

still around, @John / @Zani?

Erik the Outgolfer

I just thought I'd peek you in turn :P

Zani Xu

yep

Erik the Outgolfer

also, these days, I might be more inactive, since I bought a new Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus 64GB 4GB Global Edition

Zani Xu

21:11

which is....

John Dvorak

sorry; went to bed already

Erik the Outgolfer

which is what?

Mithrandir

Wanna try a double-SM, @Erik / @Zani? I'll clue for both teams?

Zani Xu

sure

Erik the Outgolfer

how am I sure that you won't lean towards one "team"? :P

Mithrandir

21:13

you have no guarantee ;)

Zani Xu

@GentlePurpleRain ping?

Erik the Outgolfer

Mith already pinged him, no need to do it twice, the ping has went into GPR's inbox

Zani Xu

Erik the Outgolfer

(and now this one must have also gone there, and there's no way to delete a ping)

Zani Xu

but Mith only did gen, does that count?

Erik the Outgolfer

21:14

yes

Mithrandir

yes, @zan

Erik the Outgolfer

since his name has ≥3 letters excluding spaces, the first 3 letters are necessary to ping him

Zani Xu

like @mit?

Erik the Outgolfer

yes

Mithrandir

yes, although I prefer "mith" ;)

Zani Xu

21:16

Who is Mith2? ;)

Shiro

RED goes first!

Erik the Outgolfer

his alter ego

Zani Xu

21:16

wait mith is a boy?

Erik the Outgolfer

I think so, not sure

Zani Xu

Mith are you a boy or a girl?

Erik the Outgolfer

but "his" can be used for both genders :P

Mithrandir

Just don't use "it" and we'll be fine.

Erik the Outgolfer

yeah, Mith's not Rub for you to refer to them as an "it" :P

Zani Xu

Erik the Outgolfer

21:26

!board

Shiro

Erik the Outgolfer

btw, ROUND is the first thing that comes to mind with Records...

Zani Xu

yah

Erik the Outgolfer

leans towards conspiracy theory

Mithrandir

Red: Veterinarian (2)

Zani Xu

21:29

Mithrandir

Zani Xu

noooooo

Erik the Outgolfer

21:33

(still wanted to pass)

Mithrandir

Red: Ore (2)

Zani Xu

Copper

Mithrandir

COPPER is red.

Zani Xu

21:36

[PASS]

Shiro

GentlePurpleRain

I seem to have been pinged. Twice. :P

Don't have time to play today; sorry.

Zani Xu

sorry for the second ping

GentlePurpleRain

But I call shenanigans on Mith. He's obviously biased toward red.

Erik the Outgolfer

leans towards conspiracy theory

me too

Mithrandir

21:38

@GentlePurpleRain I'll drop my log when I'm done.

GentlePurpleRain

(joking, btw, incase it wasn't obvious)

Erik the Outgolfer

(I think it was pretty obvious)

Zani Xu

Wait Mith is actually a boy?

Is Mith a boy or a girl?

Erik the Outgolfer

22 mins ago, by Mithrandir

Just don't use "it" and we'll be fine.

Mithrandir

Zani Xu

21:40

I still want to know... but whatever

Erik the Outgolfer

there's a reason you can just not specify a gender in some places, and there's even an explicit "I don't want to answer" option in others

so, let's not analyze this a bit too much and just move on

Zani Xu

ok then

Mithrandir

Blue: Electricity (unlimited)

Erik the Outgolfer

CONDUCTOR

Mithrandir

CONDUCTOR is blue.

Erik the Outgolfer

21:42

COPPER

Mithrandir

That's already been guessed.

And was Red.

!board

Erik the Outgolfer

sorry, had an old board open

Shiro

Erik the Outgolfer

PIANO

(continuing with my guesses)

Mithrandir

PIANO is yellow.

Erik the Outgolfer

21:43

duh, that Records clue is hard

!board

Shiro

Mithrandir

Red: Site (2)

Zani Xu

hmmm

web

Mithrandir

WEB is red.

Zani Xu

log

Mithrandir

21:46

LOG is blue.

Zani Xu

Erik the Outgolfer

hah

!board

Shiro

Mithrandir

Blue: Calculate (3)

Erik the Outgolfer

FIGURE

Mithrandir

21:49

FIGURE is... blue.

Erik the Outgolfer

SPOT

(Calculate? :/)

Mithrandir

...

Erik the Outgolfer

grey?

Mithrandir

Red.

Zani Xu

lol

Erik the Outgolfer

21:51

heh

!finalboard

Shiro

Mithrandir

Double-log, for both sides:

Red: HORSE, SPOT, MINE, DOCTOR, SOUL, ROUND, COPPER, WEB, CROSS.

Could go with “Veterinarian (2)” - DOCTOR, HORSE.

Could probably work something out with MINE and COPPER, but not sure what.

SOUL and CROSS could probably be clued with “Christianity”. That’d probably be a good start.

(gives “Christianity (2)” clue)

Blue: CONTRACT, LOG, TRACK, ROOT, DRILL, FIGURE, CONDUCTOR, CAST.

CROSS down on Red’s side. So’s SOUL.

Remaining red words: HORSE, MINE, DOCTOR, ROUND, COPPER, WEB, SPOT.

Getting into a Blue clue…

Zani Xu

Anyone up for a game of contact?

Erik the Outgolfer

nah

Mithrandir

no thanks

Erik the Outgolfer

21:56

@Mith hm, so, who were you SM-ing for? :P

Mithrandir

@EriktheOutgolfer both

Erik the Outgolfer

like, which side, I've seen refs doing that in soccer all the time

Mithrandir

I was more or less switching based on whose turn it was. I was trying to be equally fair in my clues.

Erik the Outgolfer

that's one good example of double-SM-ing then :P

Mithrandir

Now, how is SPOT clued by "Calculate" or "Records"??

Erik the Outgolfer

22:04

calculate → figure out → spot
