Avi

@dcfyj You seem to be unduly annoyed by what is nothing more than a blob of text

dcfyj

20:01

@Avi I'm not keen on seeing said blob of text, It's a pain to read

Avi

How do you deal with SMs' comments post-game, then?

dcfyj

By reading them, since they're not blobs of text but paragraphed items (most of the time)

Avi

Fair enough

Mithical

(Thinking...)

dcfyj

Note that when I SM I tend to put a lot of white space lol

@Mithical That's some dangerous stuff there

Brandon_J

20:04

@dcfyj oops I forgot to make notes...again. If I do something this absentminded again, I'll butterfly.

El'endia Starman

@dcfyj always gets us all in trouble

dcfyj

@Brandon_J lol it's fine, not like they're mandatory

@El'endiaStarman True story

msh210

@dcfyj I have a suggestion, then: Don't.

dcfyj

@msh210 Can't, I read to process what's in front of me.

Oddly enough, I'd probably have an easier time reading it if it weren't all caps... (Yes I know I'm odd)

Avi

@dcfyj No, you're even

dcfyj

20:07

@Avi Not until next month

Avi

fails to catch spectacularly obvious references

Mithical

Red: kickball match (2)

Avi

boot

James

BOOT++

Probably round?

Avi

same

dcfyj

20:08

@James Is that related to C++?

El'endia Starman

Kickball is a lot of fun.

James

@dcfyj Almost, it's a hot new esolang :P

Brandon_J

point of order

dcfyj

@James lol

msh210

Avi

20:09

singularity of order

Shiro

msh210

@James no, they're innings

Brandon_J

no really, point of order

16 mins ago, by Shiro

msh210

@Brandon_J what?

James

20:09

@msh210 A ball is round

Brandon_J

is "kickball match" an OK clue? I'm fine with it happening, even if it isn't, since it's just a (2), but I'm curious

msh210

@James ah I see

@Brandon_J not IMO

El'endia Starman

I think the clue is valid.

James

Other thought: Green? Like the field?

Avi

round green boot

James

20:10

I don't like it as much

msh210

@James dunno, we played on asphalt

Avi

we'll play boot > round > lawyer though

James

@Avi I still don't really like lawyer that much

msh210

@Avi then it could be just kickball

Avi

conductor is fine then, too

James

20:11

I'd probably vote to save it for the last round if we get a 1

dcfyj

@James Most people don't

Avi

but we should try one

msh210

@James I do

James

@Avi Why? We got both Chris Evans words

Avi

didn't we have a hellfire word remaining

James

20:12

@msh210 OK, I can be swayed

Avi

playing boot

BOOT

Shiro

BOOT is Red

James

Then round and lawyer?

Avi

round sure

msh210

ok

Avi

20:14

lawyer we can deliberate

dcfyj

brb

Avi

ROUND

Shiro

ROUND is Red

James

I'm OK with lawyer

Avi

green -> greek fire -> hellfire?

sketchy

ok, playing lawyer

LAWYER

Shiro

20:15

LAWYER is Yellow (neutral)
It is now Blue's turn

Avi

alright, at least it's safe

dcfyj

back

El'endia Starman

Alright, here we go!

dcfyj

Guess what, it's not round for fence! :P

North

yoo

we back

not for like

long*

dcfyj

20:18

Time to guess all 4 this turn haha

North

let's gooo

dcfyj

!who

Shiro

We are currently waiting for a clue from the Blue spymaster.

Brandon_J

:thinking:

North

hurrrrrryyyy

dcfyj

20:20

I'd rather he take his time and come up with a good clue a (4) if possible :P

Avi

dumb-mistakes

dcfyj

^

Avi

hair-pulling

dcfyj

Not so much that one

Avi

depends on the person

dcfyj

20:22

I'm curious, @Avi can you post a not all caps version of your board? I want to see if I find it easier to read

Avi

I stopped keeping track

dcfyj

lol ok, no problem, I was just wondering

Avi

Berry B Y R R
Beijing R B Flute Conductor
R Mass Train Pan B
Bill B Green Rose Y
Olive R R NewYork B

Brandon_J

Blue: Central Park (unlimited)

dcfyj

@Avi Yeah, that's a lot easier to read

NEW YORK

Shiro

20:24

NEW YORK is Blue

dooog

green?

dcfyj

Yeah, I could see that

Avi

;-;

this clue was unstoppable

dcfyj

We good on Green? I'm ok with it

dooog

our teammates are MIA

dcfyj

20:25

They both said here we go and neither are here lol

Avi

mimics a tree Hello all you should guess the assassin

dcfyj

@Avi I don't speak deciduous

Avi

I speak delicious not deciduous

dcfyj

Good for green?

dooog

yeah let's do it

dcfyj

20:26

GREEN

Shiro

GREEN is Blue

3

dcfyj

!board

Shiro

El'endia Starman

I am at work, after all... :)

dcfyj

I love how "Fire is Red" got tagged, but really it can be any color on the board (except maybe black, I've not seen a black fire)

Those are very likely the 2 park clues, what the heck are the other 2...

El'endia Starman

20:28

Related to fence and shepherds, naturally. :P

dcfyj

indeed

dooog

and unrelated to hellfire

dcfyj

That's probably mass honestly

El'endia Starman

Oooh good point on that, actually.

Avi

cook a rose on a pan in a train conductor's flute room in Beijing

dcfyj

20:29

Fence (criminal) = bill (money)?

James

@Avi shhhhhh

El'endia Starman

That could be plausible.

dcfyj

@Avi You missed olive, berry, and bill

train = fence (sport) as a possibility as well

Avi

Bill cooked a rose with olive oil on a berry pan in a train conductor's flute room in Beijing

dcfyj

I'd say Beijing is a definite no, probably olive and berry as well

@Avi and mass come to think of it

"during Mass" for an easy addition though

Avi

20:32

Bill cooked a rose with olive oil on a berry pan in a train conductor's flute room during Mass in Beijing

dcfyj

Anyhow, what do we like best?

dooog

I'm thinking flute/conductor/pan for shepherd

dcfyj

We only need 1 for Shepherds, 2 at best

and likewise, 1 for fence or 0 if pole was part of it

El'endia Starman

A berry from Beijing is stuck in the flute of a conductor struggling to reign in the mass of a train, who is panning a bill that rose after a dispute involving olive oil.

dcfyj

@El'endiaStarman You mean who is, you wouldn't say him is

El'endia Starman

20:34

@dcfyj Right, thanks.

dcfyj

the whom -> him correlation is my best friend :D

El'endia Starman

Yeah, and I knew about that, but didn't think it through.

Avi

Now all you need to do is name your child Him

dcfyj

So dooog likes flute/conductor/pan, how about you @El'endiaStarman

Avi

Him is dancing in the courtyard

dcfyj

20:35

@Avi lol

msh210

@dcfyj just don't mistake it for causation

El'endia Starman

@dcfyj I really have no idea. I'm fine with that order.

dcfyj

Nothing for fence then?

El'endia Starman

@dcfyj Was probably POLE, methinks.

dcfyj

ok

flute conductor then, although I think conductor over flute

dooog

20:38

yeah conductor is fine with me too

I wasn't saying an order, they're all ehh to me

dcfyj

@El'endiaStarman?

Between those I like conductor best

El'endia Starman

I prefer FLUTE first but either way, if one of those is wrong, we probably won't win, so... :P

dcfyj

lol true

CONDUCTOR

Shiro

CONDUCTOR is Blue

msh210

@dcfyj "among"

dooog

20:39

whew

one more

dcfyj

@msh210 between works just as well

!board

Shiro

dcfyj

I still feel like Shepherd's Rose is a thing, but I'll go for flute

FLUTE

Shiro

FLUTE is Yellow (neutral)
It is now Red's turn

El'endia Starman

I'm secretly hoping it's MASS lol.

dcfyj

20:40

oh well

Shiro

Avi

WHAT

how is it not flute

dooog

good try

dcfyj

@El'endiaStarman lol

@Avi It wasn't really all that good of a connection

Avi

It wassss

dcfyj

20:41

eh

Brandon_J

sorry for the messy cluing

gg

dcfyj

ok @Mithical, time to murder us

Avi

ok I swear

as soon as this game is done

msh210

@Brandon_J ain't over yet

Avi

I'm googling "shepherd and flute"

dcfyj

20:42

@Avi I get the feeling you'll get Pan pipes lol

Mithical

(Thinking...)

dcfyj

Oh? hard connection for the last 2? I'm ok with this

dooog

it's not over yet!!!!!

El'endia Starman

[fingers crossed]

Avi

inb5 it's Olive Garden (2)

msh210

20:43

!board

Shiro

Avi

which btw is illegal

dcfyj

@Avi lol, can't be, OLIVE is still on the board

3 mins ago, by Shiro

msh210

Berry+Beijing= açai

dcfyj

@Avi Just noticed this says inb5 lol

msh210

20:44

Berry+Olive=fruit

Avi

berry + mass = ?

WATERMELLOM

dcfyj

@Avi I have one for that, that should work

msh210

@Avi whatchamacallit, the grape wine in church

Eucharist

Avi

oh wow it actually is called eucharist?

msh210

Mass+train = transit

El'endia Starman

20:46

@msh210 Technically that's the bread as well.

James

@msh210 I think that word comes up every time I've played codenames with you :P

msh210

@El'endiaStarman ik, doesn't matter

El'endia Starman

It's wine + bread in the Eucharist ritual.

msh210

Pan+Rose= yeast

Pan+train= metal

Avi

Pn + Roee = yeet

El'endia Starman

20:47

5 down, 40 more to go.

msh210

Pan+Mass= bread

Avi

what is 8 c 2

msh210

Mass+Olive= oil

dcfyj

@El'endiaStarman Only 28 2 word combos that I'm counting

James

@El'endiaStarman Just give a binary string where 1 corresponds to red and 0 corresponds to not-red. ggez

Avi

20:48

that's illegal unless it's an actually important number

El'endia Starman

Oops, miscounted. 8C2 is 28, yes.

msh210

Mass+bill = Clinton (was overweight iirc as president)

dcfyj

@James lol, that's not legal

Avi

@msh210 LMAO

i'm actually dead

blerghhhh

El'endia Starman

@msh210 That is a very specific bit of trivia.

msh210

20:49

I'm not going in order, so it's hard to know what I've done. :-/

dcfyj

I have about 10 minutes left

Avi

Berry + beijing we got

berry + mass = eucharist

berry + train = ?

dcfyj

@msh210 This is why you do things systematically

Mithical

Red: oil (2)

Avi

olive

rose

dcfyj

20:49

@Mithical lol that's great, sucks for us, but that's great

Avi

pan

James

Rose? Why rose?

Olive, sure

Avi

rose oil

dcfyj

@James Rose oil is definitely a thing

Avi

exists

James

20:50

Is that a thing?

msh210

Olive and Mass. I gave them the cue.

James

Oh

El'endia Starman

...is that legal metagaming?

msh210

@El'endiaStarman is it not?

dooog

seems dubious, but the damage has been done

Avi

20:51

Wait!

dcfyj

I doubt there's anything about it in our rules

Avi

first we have to figure out why olive and mass are oil

olive oil, because duh

mass oil ?!

msh210

@Avi doesn't the priest dab oil during Mass?

Avi

how would I know

El'endia Starman

tee hee "dab"

Avi

20:51

I've never been to church

msh210

I think so.

Avi

Playing olive

OLIVE

Shiro

OLIVE is Red

dcfyj

inb4 it's rose + mass

didn't type fast enough lol

Deusovi

(fwiw you generally shouldn't suggest clues for the spymasters)

6

James

20:52

I'd probably agree with that

Avi

inb4 it's not actually mass

and we accidentally screwed ourselves

msh210

Entirely possible.

dcfyj

@Deusovi Makes sense considering it tells them what you're associating with the clue

msh210

Wanna go for rose then?

Avi

no

we'll do mass this time and see what happens lol

James

20:53

I'd vote for rose

I don't see any possible connection between mass and oil

msh210

@dcfyj but people do that all the time when discussing backlog

Avi

let's uh

msh210

@James have you been to Mass?

Avi

pretend we never clued anything

dcfyj

@msh210 In a way, they don't do so as directly as we were doing just now

Avi

20:54

and just go rose

James

@msh210 No

msh210

(I haven't been to Mass.)

James

I've been to non-denominational churches, but never a catholic church

Avi

oh my God we're all Godless

msh210

I think the priest dabs oil. At least at some masses? (Or daubs, if you prefer, @El'endiaStarman)

Avi

20:55

daub

El'endia Starman

@Avi <- (former Christianity.SE mod) *coughs*

Avi

@El'endiaStarman It was more about the pun

dcfyj

@El'endiaStarman You or Avi :P

Avi

"my God" -> immediately claims to be God-less

El'endia Starman

@msh210 I was actually amused at the thought of priests doing the body movement "dab" that recently became popular amongst kids.

Avi

20:56

isn't dabbing already old

msh210

@El'endiaStarman ah I see. Yeah, that'd be funny, especially during Mass

El'endia Starman

s/body/arm/ movement maybe but you get the idea.

dcfyj

Is red team guessing their last word?

El'endia Starman

yup

dcfyj

ugh, I must be tired if I wrote that...

Avi

20:57

rose it is?

James

I've never heard of rose oil, and I don't know anything about mass though I don't think it has anything to do with oil. So I can't really contribute

Avi

unless you cook on a pan with oil

James

Though I'd probably prefer rose

Oh, pan seems good

dcfyj

inb4 rose is assassin lol

Avi

Rose is Black. Game over!

dcfyj

20:58

I was about to mention that haha

El'endia Starman

I keep thinking of the cover of Desert Rose that Peter Hollens did with another guy. I'll grab the link after this game.

msh210

I've heard of rose water. Not sure about rose oil. Not sure about oil in Mass, either.

James

PAN > ROSE >> MASS
