I want to say Cross and Plate for gold. It occurs to me Plate is good for car, too, though.

Plate
Cross
Gas
Autopass

honey and pyramid? could be plate but meh

then gas as makeup

last car word is probably trip?

quite the x-post

I’m on plate and cross for gold.

Gas as makeup and I won’t talk about the last car word because no list etc.

we can talk about clues imo

i missed cross. i'm cool with that

would plate ever be clued for both? i seriously doubt it in this gamestate

circular - 3

Pie/round and...server?

Yep

How is server circular?

Server was also next for us to guess but this is no list which is frustrating so he may not have been sure we’d guess it next, but I assume he’d assume we would

Shoe is probably closest?

A serving tray is circular? It's weak but we do still need a notes word and nothing else makes sense for both.

Well we aren’t getting away from

round
Pie

Shoe does not make sense for notes but is the most circular

Man

Shoe is my preferred circular but server makes more sense for notes - unless we've just screwed it and its something like Grace and we're just bad

I'm still on server. Shoes arent circular.

he shoulda clued 2 if server is ours bc it was clear that would be our makeup for notes if he clued 2 (or unlimited in his case since that's how he does it)

by cluing 3 he denied server

BUT this is no list so maybe he wasn't sure

servers aren't circular, but tables and trays are; I hate 2-step connections like that but Ervin does those sometimes, so it's a possibility

shoe is curvy, but not really circular; and we still gotta figure out notes

Buffalo - not notes or circular (I mean, decently circular for an animal, but nah)
China - china (dishes) are circular; will consider further
Cross - no, clue would be circle if it's another shape; you do cross out notes, but nah
Honey - not circular or notes
Mouse - like buffalo but smaller; nah
Pyramid - like cross; he did circular not cylinder or circle for shape
Server - decent for notes; not great for circular; he didn't do 2 or unlimited clue so ugh
Ship - not really circular or notes
Shoe - roundish but not really circular
Trip - round trip; and you can take trip notes, but not great for either
Wind - not really

server hits notes but he did 3 clue which gives me a lot of pause

china is interesting; it's more circular than shoe so I like it better than shoe; tho Turnadot woulda been better for ruler/grace/china if he remembered that clue

we were clued for 5 notes...we have 8 words so far and how many are notes?

Check - checks notes; that's 1
Foot - footnotes; that's 2
Bugle - plays notes; that's 3
Grace - notes can be graceful, but meh
Ruler - can see some connections but meh
Sound - yeah notes make sound when played; that's 4
Round - music notes are round when written on paper; this could be 5 and done with notes
Pie - nah

so it's either:

A. china (dishes) are circular and notes are round
B. server (tray, dishes, table) is 2nd level for circular and is 5th notes word and he clued 3 even tho it was next on our list bc it's no list and he wasn't sure we'd guess it
C. shoe is considered circular because it's curvy and notes are round
D. the right answer, which we aren't on
