Quintec

@Mr.Xcoder that was a 3 clue...?

Hosch250

20:31

I know a third ;)

Mr. Xcoder

@Quintec I'm hesitant about the third (or I may be blind and simply miss it)

Quintec

fair

Mr. Xcoder

Anyway if I figure it out I can recover with the n+1 rule

ElizB

General note: it's helpful if you put your train of thought here to show the SM how you think to further assist them.

Mr. Xcoder

Ah yes, I forgot that was a thing

ElizB

20:35

Red: LAUNDRY (4)

Quintec

WASHER

Hosch250

Press.

Quintec

BED

Hosch250

Bow, sound, and scale would make an awesome violin clue :)

I see 2 potential 4th items, but I'm not happy with either.

A slip is like an under-dress kind of thing.

And drop--my family HATES dropping cleaned laundry on the dirty floor.

Quintec

that seems a bit of a stretch

Hosch250

20:38

I'm happen with WASHER and PRESS, and BED is better than any of the others.

Quintec

WASHER

WASHER is Red

It is now Blue's turn

Mr. Xcoder

Quintec

oh well, more thinking to do

Hosch250

Well, shady casinos tend to launder money...

At least we didn't guess a BLUE one.

Yeah, definitely don't play DROP.

Quintec

@Hosch250 spoilers :o

El'endia Starman

Blue: PERSON (4)

Mr. Xcoder

20:42

SHAKESPEARE

Shiro

SHAKESPEARE is Blue

Mr. Xcoder

DOCTOR

Shiro

DOCTOR is Blue

Mr. Xcoder

These two seem obvious

A DWARF can also be thought of as a PERSON

Hosch250

2 more that are obvious to me, and 2 that could be iffy.

Mr. Xcoder

20:43

And I'm thinking FLY could be the third word for the first clue

VET

Shiro

VET is Blue

Mr. Xcoder

PILOT

Shiro

PILOT is Red
Uh... what?
It is now Red's turn

Mr. Xcoder

....

Hosch250

:O PILOT and VET were my guesses.

Quintec

20:48

pilots are not people

Hosch250

Apparently they are automatons?

Mr. Xcoder

@ElizB

Quintec

probably thinking

El'endia Starman

can confirm

Mr. Xcoder

ok

ElizB

20:58

Red: COUNTRY (2)

Quintec

AUSTRALIA

i assume we're being clued away from berlin

Hosch250

Hmm.

Well, there are CALVES in the country on farms. And FLYs. And depending on where you are, RABBITs and BUCKs (male deer).

Lots and lots of FLIES

Quintec

CALF sounds good

Hosch250

AUSTRALIA

Shiro

AUSTRALIA is Red

Hosch250

21:01

You good with CALF then?

Quintec

sure

Hosch250

CALF

Shiro

CALF is Black (assassin!).
Game over. Blue wins!

Hosch250

:O

Shiro

Quintec

21:01

excellent

El'endia Starman

702231455

I am the Blue SM up against ElizB for Red.

Blue words: BALL, BUCK, VET, DROP, BOOT, FLY, SHAKESPEARE, DWARF, DOCTOR
Red words: SOUND, ROW, WASHER, PRESS, PILOT, SLIP, AUSTRALIA, CLUB
Yellow words: SCALE, BOW, CASINO, TOOTH, BERLIN, RABBIT, BED
Assassin: CALF

-

SHAKESPEARE, DWARF, DOCTOR, VET all make me think of PEOPLE (4). Potentially runs up against PRESS and PILOT. PERSON (4) should exclude PRESS but still has a problem with PILOT. I'll keep this one in my back pocket.

DROP + BALL + BOOT = KICK (3) perhaps? Potential problem with RABBIT and maybe BED? I think that's a fine…

ElizB

New game, see how it goes.

Team Blue,

RED: ElizB, Hosch250
BLUE: El'endia Starman, Mr. Xcoder

Assasin: Calf
Blue words: BALL BUCK VET DROP BOOT FLY SHAKESPEARE DWARF DOCTOR

RED WORDS: SOUND ROW WASHER PRESS PILOT SLIP AUSTRALIA CLUB

So SOUND and ROW can mean the same thing.

Travel could include pilot, club, australia?

Press, washer, and row maybe slip could be clued with laundry? Alright, going for that seems like a good clue to knock down more words.

WASHER, PRESS bed suggested. Good job, team. No, i'm talking about clothes washing... hanging laundry in a row dries them, and slip i…

Mr. Xcoder

\o/

Quintec

@ElizB you put 2 logs in there :o

Hosch250

DROP was my guess for KICK(3).

The drop-kick from MA.

Quintec

21:02

yeah, which you put in chat xd

Hosch250

> Are male horses called bucks? If so- actually nevermind! Young horses are calves...

No, they aren't. They are called Stallions.

ElizB

@Quintec good catch

Hosch250

Young horses are colts (male) and fillies (female). Calves are cows...

ElizB

@Hosch250 I thought that was for wild male horses?

El'endia Starman

@Hosch250 Ah whoops. Still, close enough that I didn't want to risk it.

ElizB

21:03

or just any adult male horse?

Hosch250

Gelding is a neutered one.

@ElizB No, just un-neutered.

ElizB

@Hosch250 ahhh gotcha thank you for the clarification.

Hosch250

Dang, sorry for missing "country club", @ElizB.

ElizB

I have a little experience with horses, thanks for educating :)

@Hosch250 that's alright

I try to be obvious with my clues

Hosch250

I would've never guessed ROW for laundry. I actually did look for a LINE though.

Mr. Xcoder

21:06

> DWARF considered. And FLY for the KICK (3) clue. Not what I intended but it's blue, so that's good!

Lol that would've been lucky

ElizB

if it's really hard then I might have to make more distant connections but that was pretty obvious to me :P

Hosch250

My two secondary clues for PERSON were TOOTH and DWARF.

El'endia Starman

Why TOOTH and not CALF? :)

Hosch250

People have teeth. I forgot about calves.

Ready for another round?

Mr. Xcoder

Thank god I never would have thought about CALF for person

El'endia Starman

21:09

Yeah, looking back, it's kinda amazing how close I got to CALF for two clues.

ElizB

true lol

Nice and straightforward:)

Shiro

El'endia Starman

Yeah. I did think of BUCK for "Bucky Barnes" i.e. the Winter Soldier. But maybe only because that came to mind in the previous game.

Now I wonder if Hosch is going "shoot, should've made that (3)". :P

John Dvorak

I can see a couple other matches...

PiIsNot3

@El'endiaStarman I’m not a huge Marvel fan, so I’ll trust you on that

El'endia Starman

21:38

I'll let Hosch clue it if need be. :)

PiIsNot3

But given it was a 2 and there were 2 obvious ones, I think that’s what our SM is doing

No need to reach

John Dvorak

I can see a couple of obvious ones, even

El'endia Starman

Feel free to guess them yourself, then. :)

Whoa...

Mr. Xcoder

predator?

msh210

21:45

ah

John Dvorak

Strike, knife good

msh210

seems a stretch

John Dvorak

hawk's more of a predator than an assassin

msh210

battery?

John Dvorak

Ah, good one

Missile.

You can't have been spotted if there's no-one left alive.

msh210

21:46

@JohnDvorak I saw that but I dunno... You don't associate

assassins with missiles

@JohnDvorak Sorry?

John Dvorak

Depends. Sometimes the collateral is worth it

There are two different ways that "leave no witnesses" can be fulfilled. One of them costs less ammo, the other is more ... reliable.

John Dvorak

Also tenuous van as a mobile hidey spot

msh210

Hawk is a character is a book series by Robert Parker. I don't remember whether he's an assassin.

John Dvorak

Any significance to the clue being a plural?

msh210

21:50

I don't think so

My preceding comment was in reply to my own comment before it

John Dvorak

Ah, capital H hawk. Like the Marvel guy with a bow?

msh210

@JohnDvorak not familiar

Mr. Xcoder

me neither

msh210

@JohnDvorak dunno, I always wonder about that

John Dvorak

I've seen Endgame. Unless it's a different bird, Hawk is one of the Avengers.

Mr. Xcoder

21:51

Knife = Strike > Battery > ?? imo

John Dvorak

not exactly assassiny, but that might be a part of his backstory - IDK

user58

@JohnDvorak ...you watched them without the previous ones??

@Mr.Xcoder me too. Probably missile fourth.

John Dvorak

Yup

Mr. Xcoder

I wouldn't risk missile now tbh

John Dvorak

21:52

I agree with that order.
