I'm not sure that ice gets pound clearly.

Surely there's better clues for bomb/snowman, e.g. spherical.


Well I mean hail comes down like bombs

Can also say it pounds you

Bomb prolly a closer connection than pound


At same time, should be capitalized for bomb to get Hail Mary which is a bomb football pass


Bomb - hail comes down like bomb fire; bombs cars, etc; coulda done Hail for bomb football pass but maybe he doesn’t know those terms
Cat - all hail our cat overlords; no connection

Chick - ours from n-1

Nail - hail nails you, your car, etc; kinda like bomb

Plot - not really

Pound - hail pounds you, your car, etc; kinda like bomb and nail

Root - nah

Snowman - yeah, ice connection; gotta be a lock

Superhero - all hail superheroes; nah

Vet - nah

Washington - nah

Locks:
Snowman
Chick

Options:
Bomb
Nail
Pound

Pound + snowman = ice
Bomb + snowman = ball? Spherical?
Nail + snowman = ?


Chick
Snowman

Nail + snowman = ?

This is a tough one. Carrot would be obvious, but root is there, so can't do that.


Head?

Bump


I think I still like ice here.


ice isn't on the board

ice was our made up clue option for pound+snowman


it's bomb nail or pound

I think hail gets bomb and snowman
I think ice gets pound and snowman
I don't know what nail+snowman gets and hail hits nail pretty similar to how it hits bomb

that said, I don't love it

Oh right, I meant pound and typed ice for some reason.

I really hate bomb here. Still like pound, but can understand if it's nail.


pound just for hail pounding your roof?

hail pounding your roof
hail bombing your roof
hail nailing your roof

all seem pretty similar in usage ugh


you also hail a cab, so washington in play, but that's a 2 step connection so bleh

Pretty much, but:

Yeah, I agree.


bleh

I am fine with whatever

bold your fave or your gut or whatever and let's let the chips fall where they may


Rand between pound and nail and let the gods decide?

I don't feel great about either one, but it really should be one of those.


Bump

Also nich and/or IBD help me out in the Millionaire thread please 😀


We should pick something.

Odd and it's pound.


Okay then.

Nail
