What about tire in the exhaust sense?

Laze, lounge, empty, lethargy, bore, annoy anything?

Nah, it's too confusing to clue it that way if so. Tired would be much more clear.

I know he could've clued tyre to make it super obvious which definition he was after, but I'll just put that down to being American and not really thinking about it.


No matter how hard I try, I can't make tire and bucket connect in any meaningful way.

Should we just guess vehicle or something and go from there?


Yea I suppose, Im struggling to connect them just like you

Anything with someone getting tired carrying a bucket? Like operating a waterwell or something like that

I'm good with whatever you wanna bold if you can't think of anything, I'm totally stuck


Yeah, I mean obviously I'd like to guess something that at least could be correct, but I got nada.

vehicle


Not vehicle.

I’d say a decent % (over 50% imo), but I also have no idea how to estimate beyond that and others might disagree.


p4/6 or p7 should get this. Unless you guys want to go the f route, which could maybe get there.


P4/p8 p8 gets this now

Not sure what p6 or p7 is


Agreed on p8, and it seems like PC knows it.


Yeah p8 imo

pushcart


Something like a trolley came to mind first

No idea what that has to do with bucket or tire


Wheelbarrow imo


As I was opening the thread I was like something like wheelbarrow seems impossible and could work

Yea I'm good to bold that if you are


wheelbarrow


Yeah, that’s it. Nice job

I was between bucket and barrel for b6. Would barrel have helped more attached to tire?

I don't know, maybe? Hard to say after the fact. I think putting tire to the left of bucket would've helped, but still tough to know if we would've got there.

They were good clues for a tough word.


Yea woof that's a tough word, feels like it easily could have taken way longer


great job; tire+bucket is much much much more obvious when you know the word than the other way around

my t6 was trolley, but I felt pushcart was better and if you didn't get from trolley then where do we go

my other t4 was tilt...I thought tilt + pushcart would get you there, but then I started thinking tire would have a shot at in 2...also hoping you noticed tire not tires as not many things only have one tire...but that mostly helps after you get pushcart clue

one of toughest words on the list and the letters weren't great

was also worried when ibd mentioned b6 bc they call them barrow in australia so didn't want d1 thinking barrow/wheelbarrow was out due to b6 so that along with b being on the left towards p was why I wanted b6 clue to be given


Round 3:

Cards used: 4
Guessers: ervin/zeus

The Board:

UNKQ | IH | S | M | C | DL | EF

The target word:
I've pmed the word to ibd, d1, bolt, pogcrazy


e7 comes to mind
i5 also

n4/n5, d4 and f4 are in the domain


by Nicholasp27 m

was also worried when ibd mentioned b6 bc they call them barrow in australia

That's news to me!


Q4 seems solid, similar to d4. I haven't figured out these other clues yet.


by D1iabol1cal m

That's news to me!

my bad for forgetting Google uses AI at top of results

they said this...the last line about 'Moss Wheelbarrows uses barrows in the name' shoulda been a clue given it's Moss Wheelbarrows, not Moss Barrows

Google AI:

In Australia, wheelbarrows are commonly referred to as "barrows".

Common Term: "Barrow" is a widely used term for wheelbarrows in Australia.

Example: You might hear someone say, "I need to get my barrow from the shed," instead of "wheelbarrow".

Brands: Some Australian brands, like Moss Wheelbarrows, even use "barrows" in their name.

tho I find a few instances on Moss Wheelbarrows website, to be fair, like where they call them 'Our Aussie Barrows' and in their screenshots of mobile text testimonials, a few people call them 'barrows' so I guess it does happen, just not common


Yeah, that's weird. I don't think I've ever heard anybody refer to it as a barrow in my life. I mean I'm sure there are people out there that call them that, but I doubt it's more common than it would be anywhere else in the world.


hoping someone has a banger here


Do you know q4? Not a lock by any means, but imo it's a banger for the letters we were given.
