BLUE goes first!

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

How to spell your name caird :p

caird coinheringaahing

That works :P

We try to avoid the bit after the space

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Blue: Colosseum (2)

!who

bobble

THEATER, and.... hmm

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

00:04

Shiro?

caird coinheringaahing

!who

Shiro

Blue currently has 3 guesses remaining.

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Oof why can't I

caird coinheringaahing

Ah, @Anonymus25-ReinstateMonica you need to be whitelisted for ! commands

Only mods can do that tho

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Oh

bobble

00:04

THEATER

Shiro

THEATER is Blue

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Ok

bobble

hmm, it's shaped like a circle

I got nothing else

CIRCLE

Shiro

CIRCLE is Blue

bobble

[pass]

Shiro

00:05

caird coinheringaahing

Red: Trees (3)

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

MAPLE

Shiro

MAPLE is Blue
Maybe you'll do better next time.
It is now Blue's turn

bobble

oof

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

MAPLE TREES Exist

bobble

00:07

I would've guessed that

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

OLIVE and STICK were next

are those blue too?

bobble

olives are black

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

brb gott abrush my teeth

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Blue: Metal Bar (2)

bobble

did you check that for legalness?

caird coinheringaahing

00:09

It's borderline, but I'll allow it

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Is it not?

bobble

anyways, IRON and BAND stand out

You have a word ("bar") modified by another word ("metal")

I'm more sure of IRON

caird coinheringaahing

@Anonymus25-ReinstateMonica The "metal" bit pushes it close to a "double clue", where you clue two things with two words that wouldn't necessarily go together

bobble

IRON

Shiro

IRON is Blue

caird coinheringaahing

00:10

But I'd've objected if it wasn't valid

bobble

BAND

Shiro

BAND is Red
Maybe you'll do better next time.
It is now Red's turn

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

@cairdcoinheringaahing You understand right? wink

caird coinheringaahing

@Anonymus25-ReinstateMonica I do, but I have the board :P

I'd recommend keeping a log tho so you can dump your thinking after the game

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Can Red ketchup? (Catch up)

A joke fromm discord

bobble

00:11

PLATE, BRIDGE maybe? not confident in either

I'll say that I have no backlog

caird coinheringaahing

Red: Twig (0)

bobble

I think I know the assassin :P

caird coinheringaahing

ping @ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

@ThePuzzlingPlatypus

bobble

don't ping twice!

there's been one ping, only do another if they don't respond for a while

common courtesy

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

00:13

i'll do it later

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

He told us to ping TPP, so I did :p

bobble

no, he stated that he was pinging TPP

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Olive

Shiro

OLIVE is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Let's see, whhat other tree words are there

DATE

those things are delicious

DATE

Shiro

00:15

DATE is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

!board

Shiro

caird coinheringaahing

@ThePuzzlingPlatypus Ever since I saw the first Indiana Jones, I've never had one (the fruit, not the social situation)

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Oof

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

What does that movie have to do with it? I haven't seen it

bobble

00:16

you should definitely do STICK, that's a tree word

I see no possible downside

caird coinheringaahing

@ThePuzzlingPlatypus A batch of dates gets poisoned

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Oh

I'm thinking SNOW or MARCH

SNOW because it's on top of trees, MARCH because that's when trees start getting leaves back

unless BAND was the tree word

bobble

you also find bridges on top of trees

you drop from trees

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

actually, I don't know, so I'll pass

[pass]

Shiro

caird coinheringaahing

00:18

100% impartial here: March would give you 5 in a row :D

bobble

c'mon, shiro

caird coinheringaahing

bobble

she's already at puush

Shiro

caird coinheringaahing

@bobble I just run them both until one works :P

bobble

we believe in you Shiro

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

bobble

you go girl

Shiro

caird coinheringaahing

Ah well

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Bot died

caird coinheringaahing

That's the latest board

!who

Shiro

00:20

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

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Blue: Crossing (0)

bobble

Did you see the spot where I said I didn't have a backlog?

caird coinheringaahing

@bobble Have fun :P

bobble

I wasn't joking - I threw out some wild guesses, decided I didn't like any of them, and now I have one clue that I already couldn't solve

I repeat: I already wasn't going to guess BRIDGE

[pass]

Shiro

bobble

00:23

Not risking a guess when I can't see anything

caird coinheringaahing

Red: Armor (3)

@ThePuzzlingPlatypus ping

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Still here

caird coinheringaahing

Just double checking :P

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Armor can go on your CHEST and PLATE armor is a thing

I'm sure of PLATE

PLATE

caird coinheringaahing

Ugh, I told myself I'd go to bed around midnight, and it's 1:25am here :/

Shiro

00:25

PLATE is Red

bobble

so is stick armor

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

CHEST

Shiro

CHEST is Red

bobble

you sharpen the points and hot-glue them to your back, poof, you're a hedgehog

caird coinheringaahing

@cairdcoinheringaahing The problem with setting myself deadlines is that I know the guy who set them is full of shit :/

bobble

00:27

also water and air and blood

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

I'm thinking either SHOE or PLASTIC

PLASTIC because Kevlar I think is technically plastic

and SHOE because armored shoes exist

bobble

no one likes my stick armor idea :(

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

and shoes can be thought of as armor

@bobble Hey, I love hedgehogs. And porcupines actually

more hedgehogs though

SHOE

Shiro

SHOE is Blue
I hope you feel okay about that.
It is now Blue's turn

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

PLASTIC on backlog

caird coinheringaahing

00:32

!who

Shiro

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

caird coinheringaahing

@Anonymus25-ReinstateMonica You know you're up right?

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Blue: Thanksgiving (1)

Sorry, afk

bobble

TURKEY

Shiro

TURKEY is Blue

bobble

00:34

[pass]

Shiro

bobble

this ain't looking good

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

If caird comes with some genius 3 clue, no, it isn't

bobble

no, he only needs a 2

assuming that Platty's backlog is correct

caird coinheringaahing

Blue: Fatigue (2)

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

00:38

Step one: Fatigue as in being tired or Fatigue as in combat clothes

need to figure that out

based on the board I'm guessing combat fatigues

you would MARCH in those

and that would fit with the last tree word

MARCH

Shiro

MARCH is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

going for backlog

you'd havea bulletproof vest maybe

which is Kevlar which is PLASTIC

PLASTIC

Shiro

PLASTIC is Red

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

and if it's the Air Force, you might have a PARACHUTE

bobble

If you STICK at something, it might fatigue you

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

00:40

or STOCK because I think that's a gun word

going PARACHUTE

PARACHUTE

Shiro

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

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Almost perfect game

caird coinheringaahing

A perfect game is opening with a (9) clue (and winning) :P

bobble

perfect? there were multiple donations

I managed a (4) once, it was glorious, and I will keep bringing it up

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

So did I actually

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

00:41

Blue: Christmas (3)

Big guns baby

bobble

SNOW

Shiro

SNOW is Blue

caird coinheringaahing

@bobble I've gotten a (8) IRL before

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

Christmas trees have STICKS

bobble

hmm, Santa DROPs presents off

caird coinheringaahing

00:41

Best day of my life, still chasing that high

bobble

you might be a SWITCH for Christmas?

@cairdcoinheringaahing link?

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

@cairdcoinheringaahing did you win with that 8 clue?

@bobble he said IRL as in with the physical game

bobble

DROP

Shiro

DROP is Red
Oh, dear.
It is now Red's turn

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

WTF

caird coinheringaahing

00:42

@bobble It happened in real life, so no link, and I did win in one round :D

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

GG

bobble

oh, nevermind

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

gg

!finalboard

bobble

please don't swear at me for a decent guess

Shiro

bobble

00:42

please

caird coinheringaahing

Seed: 713848024

Red: Chest, Band, March, Plastic, Plate, Olive, Drop, Date
Blue: Stick, Saturn, Maple, Turkey, Theater, Circle, Iron, Shoe, Snow
Black: Bridge
Yellow: Parachute, Chick, Switch, Stock, Card, Buck, Telescope

Ok, Blue's going first
March + Band = something there?
Colosseum (2) from Blue. Theater and ? Circle?
Date + Olive = Edible? Fruit?
March + Band = Drum?
Date + Olive + March = Trees?

Fuck it, let's go with that
Could've extended it to Dropbears, but I don't think TPP is an Aussie

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

you were wrong, stick was just blue

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

I was in quite a problem there with SATURN

bobble

STICK and SATURN are no more connected to CHRISTMAS than DROP

caird coinheringaahing

@bobble In Anon's defence, I think it was more "wait, we lost?" rather than anythin directed at you

I've had a "WTF" reaction to a word I wouldn't have seen before, nothing directed at the guesser, more just a "huh?"

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

00:44

o/ now

caird coinheringaahing

\o I have to sleep

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

We have exactly 15 minutes left

bobble

before?

caird coinheringaahing

it

bobble

comes

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

00:45

@Anonymus25-ReinstateMonica We can play past the limit

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

So?

bobble

I think there is a communication difficulty here

can everyone say what they mean, straight, no dithering around the point?

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

The 15 minutes Anon mentioned was the time limit on the weekly game

I was pointing out that that is arbitrary

and doesn't actually matter

Anonymus 25- Reinstate Monica

Wave at me, I mean

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

o/ I don't feel like SMing

bobble

00:48

o\

that game wasn't much fun for me, not up for another soon

ThePuzzlingPlatypus

OK maybe another time

o\ then
