Regular Run of the Mill NO LIST Codenames!

Post if you want in, ideally 8 people but the normal game - guess your stuff and ideally go fast bolding away a guess at a time(Snapguess + guess + etc). Spirit of the game is to just bold away at what you think, keep 0-1 max backup and go quick.

Monopoly - unlimited


I...don't get this clue at all.

Game must be ours, but why not just do a 1 clue for the other word we need?


Monopoly - 2 is game and capital

Monopoly - unlimited is…not game and capital


If they didn't have 7, I'd say we should just guess Game and pass.

But I don't think we can do that.

Ugh, this should have been a gimme.


can only be game and capital, so still a gimme imo

this is ervin's MO


Why not monopoly 2?

Or clue just capital 1 or unlimited

Why hit game the hardest when it’s literally the only word we’ve ever mentioned left on the board

This is like the 4th best way to clue it


It’s no list so no list here

What if Olympus is ours and so unlimited means their word because it’s the only word bolded left in the game?

Anytime an unlimited (or really any) clue hasn’t made sense, it’s always because the spymaster is trying to tell us something strange

It’s not because it’s the 2 clue that they decided not to clue

This clue makes no sense for game+capital


it's ervin

he's done weird unlimited clues to close it out a handful of times in this thread. then everyone talks about why he did the weird clue, and they end up at the only two possible answers. then they win and i say gg

i've always been on the other team when it happens, but find it to be hilarious

i still don't know why he does it since i zone out for that part of the conversation, but it's a 2 clue for him

game
capital
bottles


He likes unlimited instead of n-1 when top one is right

But he clued game not capital here

If he had clued hard on capital - unlimited then I woulda said it’s Ervin doing the ambiguous convention pre-agreement move instead of deductive move that always works

But he clued hard on game - unlimited and that makes no sense


Like if monopoly hit 3 words then this would make sense

You clue unlimited monopoly rather than 1 clue or unlimited capital to say that game, which is a BLOCKER for monopoly, is NOT ours

But I don’t see a 3rd word that you’d clue monopoly for capital+word


I know “it’s Ervin” is an argument, but anybody else and this clue is explicitly saying it’s NOT game

He denied game by not cluing capital n-1 OR his unlimited version for capital

By cluing game hardest he actually denies game being ours

If denying game isn’t a thing here then he can never unblock a word as spymaster, which hobbles him needlessly


It's nice to be on the other side of this for a change lol.


nich, idk what to say

which word would you ever guess before these?

i see you mentioned olympus, but how are two other words ahead of olympus for high on that list?


actually i was on this guessing side once. it was so long ago it might have been his first time

i was adamant it couldn't be one of bugle/lemon for "pucker" or something, but every other option was more ridiculous to my teammates. not going through that again

if it's olympus for monopoly we deserve to lose


If there were a single other word that hit monopoly at all…car, hat, dog, parking, jail, chest, tax, pass, Amazon, window, anything

But there isn’t…so I’m fine with monopoly capital and letting the chips fall where they may


I mean game capital
