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.

Jupiter
Roulette
Im fine with shadow, but won’t bold yet in case either of your minds have changed
Jupiter
Roulette
Bank - don't see it
Disease - not really
Flute - def not bc he did n instead of n-1
Lawyer - meh
Organ - bleh
Pipe - circular for pipe/jupiter/roulette and don't see orbit for this
Shadow - best so far
Tablet - nah
Tooth - orbit woulda been capitalized for Orbit tooth whitening gum, so no
Undertaker - not really
Wall - meh; think there are better clues and don't really think of 'orbit' for wall
yeah nothing has changed to make me change my mind, but I am open to arguments for another word
I don’t really understand shadow for orbit, but the only other option I can think of is wall, which neither of you like.
And I agree wall is not a compelling fit. I just don’t really get shadow and all you’ve said is that you like it and it’s the the best so far, but not why.
shadows are caused by orbiting sun and the moon orbiting us
moon casts a shadow on earth during eclipses
shadows 'orbit' you as you walk (depending on direction of the light)
Shadow
Seems right to me, unfortunately.
yep
nice job guys
gg, great clues
Sick
yep great clues
our mistake on film; just because it's not capitalized doesn't mean it's ours in an opening 0 clue, especially bc maybe other words in the list hit that movie that are ours so you don't want to 0 it out
first clue was to hopefully get jupiter, but i totally understand the film guess. i didn't capitalize since i didn't know if i'd accidentally be eliminating something i shouldn't
james was to maybe get roulette like nich mentioned. or jupiter again for a name connection. knew it was a huge stretch either way, but i didn't see a blue word ever being guessed (tooth/undertaker are their last 2)
and great job at the end!
gg
Yaaarg nice job reds
I thought about going for the 4 of rabbit/Australia/tooth/undertaker with something like foot(y) or carcass or vulture but meh, seemed very hard for them to get roulette+Jupiter+shadow
You guessed everything I wanted and mentioned tooth as a distant 3rd in the kangaroo discussion like I hoped so next turn I was gonna be able to just do mortician - unlimited
But then came red with the pesky orbit clue and got em all, well done GG all
I intentionally left undertaker up there since they had shadow and thought it seemed impossible
Blue needing to win in 2 is really tough.
GG all.

The one time in my codenames career I don’t laser-focus on the name/name connection!
Good game all
