SIDES - Inaugural Game Thread
In this thread, we will play a new word game called Sides. It's somewhat similar to codenames, but cooperative and diff
I'm kinda annoyed at myself for not thinking of referee sooner. Good clues.
yeah this was always a 2 clue target since we didn't have u for umpire
original was game moderator or mediator, but wanted a sport instead of generic 'game' but the problem is that opens up a bunch of the sport-specific words and figuring out that m8 or m9 is mediator or moderator isn't obvious at all
I think ya'll did fine getting it in 2
Round 17:
Cards used: 22
Guessers: d1/nich
The Board:
RG | C | B | T
The target word:
Someone rand a word and send it to ibedrummin, bolt2112, amazingervin and doctor zeus
Sheet link:
NOTE: THESE ARE THE FINAL LETTERS IN THE GAME
I'd do the rand but I'm banned. :(
banned from what?
oh yeah, I banned you for the easy word rand last time
I believe in second chances if you wanna rand it
There's a T on the outside. There's an 80% chance I would rand "Japan".
Target sent and incredibly boring
Next person in just bold t4 and then Nich can ban me too
I was gunna do t6 lol

I was thinking Rules or my r6/r8 was reviewer but fine outcome
My first thought was t3? I'm sure I'll think of these others since this seems easy
T6 works for me.
tavern
bar?
t3=tap
t4=?
I guess? Although tap seems kinda terrible in isolation and I don't know what this super obvious t4 is supposed to be.
T4 is tend maybe? Though wouldn't your first thought be tender if you were going down that line?
Tend pretty good
Bartend vs bartender but tender makes you think of money while tend is more ambiguous so may get you to bar
It’s gotta hit tavern hard since they all knew tavern so that’s main reason I like bar the most
Kinda like we all knew duffel so it was prolly a bag and yall all knew overalls so had to do with overalls somehow directly rather than just farm word where outhouse or something would be thought of before overalls
Also was easy word and bar is the kind of word you Rand and say “easy one shot” even before looking at letters
You don't use the word "pub" in the States at all do you? Only other word I could make a case for.
We do but that’s usually for an English pub or Irish pub as in a bar themed as a pub, not the standard name for a bar here
If it were pub they woulda done work to try to differentiate for us
Well imo it hits pub harder than bar. Isn't tavern an English word in itself?
But agree it's more likely to be bar when the cluer is American. I'm fine with bolding it if you are.
It's also possible the others thought that tender was the t6 clue lol.
bar
Pub is more closer to tavern in a vacuum but this is far more likely to be bar for a bunch of mostly Americans
Yeah
I should’ve just bolded Twix
