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
Lol yea wow I wasn't expecting some sitcom to do with a rickshaw
Like wtf
Home improvement? How could these relate?
If this was clue 1, I'd be thinking cart or wagon or something. Maybe it still is something like that, but that sitcom clue has totally thrown me.
Yea I have no idea what some kinda rinkedy dink wheelbarrow has to do with a sitcom
Idk besides home improvement. Cart = cartman = South Park? Like no way. There's no A5 for Allen tho so no HI either
I'm not sure where to go here
I mean there's stuff like splinter and shed for wood type stuff
Still really lost wow, it's like 2 completely opposite domains
I say we just disregard sitcom and pretend like rickshaw is the only clue. Remember that everybody was pretty much of the opinion that rickshaw was a lock and nobody else knew the s6 (bolt even said he didn't expect anyone to know it).
I still think it's probably something like cart or wagon, but I don't have time to work out other clues right now. I'll come back to it tomorrow.
So I had a bit of an epiphany while I was falling asleep last night. I was too hung up on what they look like, and not what they're used for. The answer is taxi. We can say taxicab to hedge a little, but it's gotta be that.
What on earth does that have to do w sitcom lol
I'm good to fire that, I'm still at a total loss so absolutely good with that logic
Taxi is a famous sitcom from the 70s. Danny DeVito, Andy Kaufman, Christopher Lloyd, etc...
taxicab
👍
nice work!
it was taxi
rickshaw was my r8 opposite lol
Phew. Was totally confused at first, but obviously once I thought of taxi it all made sense.
I think rideshare would've got us there quicker, but good clues.
D1iab GOAT
my s6 opposite was "subway"
In retrospect I should have capitalized "Sitcom". Great work, D1!
Yeah the unfortunate thing was we used c last round bc cab woulda been slam dunk 2 second round
We do have a company called Americab in Atlanta so technically we coulda gotten this with one clue but I didn’t think using a local company would be kosher bc then too easy for lots of words to do that. Uber or Lyft or Checker seems fine but a local company seems a bridge too far
WOOOOT! Great job D1 I woulda been here for quite a long time haha
Round 9:
Cards used: 10
Guessers: ervin/ibd
The Board:
IH | P | JOVW | M | EF | T | A
The target word:
I've pmed it to d1/bolt/filthy/zeus
opposite a10 is pretty good
h9 is ok
p7 if we get there
I really like i9 as a different meaning for this; I think it's most likely to get it in one shot
The a10 isn't bad. If it misses are there any good t words though?
There's a pretty good i3 which may get it. If the i9 is what I think it is, then it may hit a few things imo.
I think i9 gets them thinking of the right word or few words, which could be a challenge this round otherwise
p7 for the other definition if i9 fails will make it a lock together
Do you know the i3 I'm thinking of?
