Sides Game Sheet

Epic post

I don't know how you got inspired into this and would be curious to hear, from nothing to land here - incredible

Because Nich is the Sides Whisperer. I've been saying this for months.

Wilting is definitely the most prominent thing spinach does lmao

The most prominent thing spinach does is grow Popeye's muscles.

I associate wilting with lettuce as much as I do with cabbage. It was a coin flip in my mind. I had a strong feeling that "muscles" + "Bluto" was guaranteed to get us there in 2 clues at worst. Especially when they figured out that V9 was vegetable.

Target sent.

I don't know what I'd clue if I had access to all 26 letters of the alphabet. This one will be tricky.

Yeah I guess just the phrasing made me think it was something more actively doing something rather than passively wilting by doing nothing for too long

I had eliminated nutrition/vitamins but still had keto for k4 on mind so was thinking about words related like meat and protein and smoothies

And once I had spinach in my head, it immediately related to muscles based on Popeye. Then vegetable was easy confirmer to get once thinking of a vegetable option

I think our best strategy is we give the first clue, and when they get it wrong, we can hopefully tell them that they're at 50%. The the second clue finishes the job.

But I don't know what those clues might be. B4/B7 might be a start.

D5/D7 maybe?

O6 as well

Oh how about N6? I reckon N6 and O6 could get it, maybe N6 on it's own if they figure out other clues

B5 only thing I can think of from other side

N6 is a good clue but we need confirmers

What about opposite b4/b7? Probably opposite b4

I like the opposite idea. Tho I’m probably more on b7 haha

So if you know our target q5/the never heard q7 is kinda cool, k4/k6 more vague

We could do something like a b4/b7 into q7/k6

But just opposite b4/b7 with these confirmers may be enough now...

Think I prefer opposite b6 to the others, though they're all much the same.

Idk why I didn't really think b6 - I guess cause feels like it could go astray easier...but as opposite and with all the other clues I'm starting to think they can figure this out

Well if other people like it and wanna fire opposite b6 seems like a fine way to go

I have an idea of opposite b6 but I'm not sure that I have the right word.

I also don't have any big inspiration, so if someone wants to bold, I'm fine with it.

I think someone just bolds whatever, Nich figures it out, we move on to the next round

*this is an opposite clue*

burner

Fire extinguisher first instinct for opposite of burner

busy day, will try to look at this in a bit

for now,

opposite of burner could be things like:

fire extinguisher
fire department
fireman
other opposite of fire type words

or burner could be like burner phone so temporary, so opposite burner would be permanent or things like that

Hmm I doubt its phone - that just feels too loose

I think it'll be an extinguisher- and fireman hopefully has better clues
