SIDES - Inaugural Game Thread

I got nothin'. So if we assume what you say is correct, any idea on the other clues? I3 is a lock apparently.

A5 is usury. The only I3 lock that I can think of would be IRS if the answer is "tax". I'd like to have a thought of A7, D7, or A12.

IRS is the first thing I thought of too, but we definitely would've had audit/accountant clues if it was tax.

I think we just bold loanshark and move onto the next clue. We can't even be sure what this clue is lol.

Could bank fit?

It could fit. Do you have any ideas for the A and I clues that make you like bank?

D7 could be deposit. A7 could be America? That could obviously go lots of ways, but ervin did say it was only good as a confirmer.

I3 = ING? That is a bank in Australia, but I dunno if Americans know it.

I really don't know about the others, but I imagine there are a bunch of banks that I've never even heard of that could possibly fit some of the clues.

Could it be as simple as "shark"?

I know Great White, Hammerhead, and that's about it. And "Jaws" would be a bink. The letters available were A/UNKQ on the outside. IH/DL on the next level inside.

Any comments on what I posted?

Sorry. I've never heard of ING. Usury is a crime for predatory high interest and I'm having a hard time getting to bank. But it's probably not "shark" because H10 wasn't named, which would be hammerhead. Let's move forward.

bank

WOO HGOO

I spelt usury wrong sorry but yh

UBS was probably illegal as U3?

yeah it was for ING, which we do have in the US as an online bank, plus I think generally they are one of the larger banks in the world

UBS is illegal bc the b stands for bank, yes

"a7->d7 isn't bad, either"

account -> deposit

good job getting there; there weren't any great 1-hit clues since words like account and America hit a lot of things

Round 12:

Cards used: 13
Guessers: bolt/ibd

The Board:

A | DL | EF | T | JOVW | B | IH

The target word:
Sent to d1, doctor zeus, ervin

a3 isn't bad
h4 either

h6 is fine

h6 is good but not sure it gets it in 1; a lot of ways to go with that by itself

yh true and I dunno if B unlocks

Eh h6->b10 is quite good?

L7 is decent also

I really like A3 but it could fail if they don't think of the right thing; maybe it's a 2nd clue if needed

Great job on bank!!

My a12 was amortization lol, mostly to get in the domain but you didn't need it!

I know the h6 and yea by itself unlikely

B4 obv seems great but that's us knowing the word, in reverse may not be enough. B11 could be kinda OK with the H, Ima look tad more

B11 is oookkkkk?

dont know what A3 is

yeah, you may not know a3 until I clue it

I8 may work?
