Forced Unlimited Guessing Codenames
It's codenames, and the clueing is normal.
But your team has to keep guessing until they win, hit the assassin, or hit a wrong word.
Sign up below. I think 6 or 8 is probably optimal.
I don’t think it’s about what’s hard to clue with Stream. I think it’s about what’s blocking him from clueing with Stream.
But it seems like we’re never not bolding Stream, so might as well get it over with now if we’re wrong.
Stream
Stream is blue
Man i cant parse the difference so im happy with maracas
maracas
My bad
I shoulda just clued Footloose - 2
Christmas
Novel
Cold
I'm not for or against cycle, but I don't get it?
Stream
Cycle
Salsa?
Stream
Cycle
Salsa
Were the only 3 words in the thread mentioned and still unknown
If stream+cycle was ours I woulda clued Story - 2 like we’ve done many times before
But our words were stream+salsa
So I hard clued off just one of the 3 words mentioned bc the other 2 were ours
But that wqs the other team?
So the common usage of 0 clue is to clue away from words previously mentioned
Y’all had 0 words left unrevealed, but the very last post of the last turn they had 3 words unrevealed and one was cycle which I hard clued off of with bike
I expected this to be a 2 minute turn where you just bolded stream and salsa as the only logical reason I clued bike - 0
I woulda clued Baroque - 0 since eye mentioned that was reason for cycle, but he posted that after reveal and I don’t think we should use post-reveal posts
If it were stream+maracas I just clue Spotify and call it a day
0 clue was only because I was cluing you to words already mentioned; otherwise I’d do a 2 clue
Interstellar for stream + astronaut
Etc
Can always get 2 clue to connect 2 words
If I clue 0 it’s to clue for words already mentioned except for the ones matching the 0 clue
That’s how we’ve always used it afaik
No idea what the standard is, but I would never assume that I should guess off the other teams list with a 0 clue.
It's def an interesting idea, and has use, but no way its my default
I def see the logic tho since like you said, it's 2 words and almost every 2 words has a clue. So you're clearly trying to clue away from something.
Wuuuuut lol
I feel they won in spirit and nich was just messing around
2/3 words on our list were theirs and we needed Comet, Link, Sign, and Marathon
Well that was an interesting way to lose

Sphinx
Doctor?
Quack?
Sphinx
ologist means doctor like Doctor Indiana Jones
and we should always discuss and make a list before bolding, even if it's obvious like sphinx
remember, I've clued Jaguar when cat was neutral because neutral blockers are fine and you got the rest of the words; but if you just bolded cat before any discussion then we would have been in trouble
so even when obvious, we should have a list first
this is unlimited so we gotta keep going
I think scorpion or quack are words he would expect we may guess next so should be neutral
IBeReminiscin on last game for EB
Ya so I half gave up sorta gentleman's GG go watery - 2 for ur Stream and Salsa and end it or do some Mexican - 1 and our team will finish it out for u lol cause we're in rouuugh shape and our list is 2/3 other team's words + brick
But here comes other team with none of that typical stuff! funky 0 clue to supposedly hit our list and hits dead on Maracas
Moral of the story: don't do 0, just clue stuff u want(and ok Nich ill look at other teams list in other game based off this lol but I don't think the concept works[cool idea! but too ambiguous with real 0 imo])
Doctor is also red.
