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 wonder how I can hint to it cause I think you'd like it a good bit. There's an M8 that I think is decent and would probably be my pick if we don't do A7, it's in the same domain. Pretty different domain from the 2 M4s
Maybe just M4 tho and try to get home with next clue
Let's bold the m4?
π
milk
A7 could be antacid or anatomy
Milk could also be for cookies but no macadamia clue
Itβs not for shake or they woulda done malt
The cookie idea is m7 is monster so milk monster is Cookie Monster; not sure what a7 cookie would be tho
options: M/M and T/A so M and A now and M and T one in to discuss
summary of discussion:
m8 doesn't narrow it really
m4/m7/m9
m4/m4 and kinda like a7
another m8
m6 similar to one m8
m4 (milk) to m7 or m7 to m4 definitely gets it
m4 (milk) should be pretty obv; a7 may be best one
m8 similar domain to a7 but a7 works better
m8 and a7 same domain; pretty different domain from m4s (milk/?)
no mention of t, but lots of Ms and then one a7 (and an a8 that d1 doesn't like)
m4/m7 combo is the most important one to figure out it seems
what all does milk clue for?
drinks: shakes, coffee, tea, etc
food: eggs, honey, cookies, cheese
farm: cow, goat, etc.
body: milk from mother
magnesium: milk of magnesia
shake: malt would be the clue
coffee: a7 would be arabica bean; m9 would be machiatto; the most obvious m5 mocha wasn't mentioned; can't think of an m7 right now
tea: t6 for Tetley woulda been mentioned; also m5 for matcha
eggs: can't think of many words for m/a/t for eggs right now
honey: same as eggs
cookies: m7 would be monster; a7 no clue; they woulda just clued macaraon/macaroon for cookie tho for 1 shot
cheese: muenster woulda been the clue
cow: angus woulda been mentioned; moo woulda been the clue though
goat: same as eggs/honey
milk from mother: mammals or mammaries would be the clues; a7 would be anatomy; t4 for tits woulda been mentioned
magnesium: milk of magnesia; a7 is antacid; but I don't think so
so far, batting .000 for this clue
Bump
Any thoughts bolt?
Hoping an epiphany strikes us
Could it be mammal? M7 could be mammary.
if it was mammal then they'd go mammary before milk I'd think, as mammary only refers to mammals while milk has lots of connections (see post above)
I'm fine with throwing out a hail mary. I'm afraid I'm drawing a blank as well.
Yeah Iβll look again when Iβm home; if nothing comes to mind then will just throw something out there to keep it moving
milkman for delivery stuff, but they woulda clued mail or milkman itself; and a6 for amazon
every word that has to do with milk just doesn't make sense to me yet
there is chocolate milk, but Mars or Musketeers or Milky maybe? I can't think of an a7 for chocolate tho
could be yogurt
a7 would be Activia
not sure what m7 would be tho
milk just hits sooo many different things that it's strange they clued that one first instead of second; makes me think we're missing something obvious
What if a7 is apricot and milk is for coconut?
No a5 for apple tho
M6 for monkey also, unless m7 is monkeys
other types of milk:
soy
almond
rice
other options are dairy and ice cream
mint would be another m4 for ice cream
I woulda mentioned t7 for Talenti, but they may not know that brand
can't think of an a7 for m7 for ice cream tho; a la mode is a7 but isn't one word
for dairy I can't think of many words for m/a/t besides milk/muenster/Activia to get dairy products
I think t4 for tofu gets mentioned for soy
for almond, you have amaretto and macadamias
for rice I'm not sure, but milk isn't the first thought for sure
farm and agriculture are two other options
if farm, then agriculture a11 woulda been the clue
for agriculture, I'm not sure; moo, mulch, acres, t7 for tractor woulda been mentioned
still ugh
It's ok to not get it in 1...
Yeah I donβt think weβve mentioned it and unlikely to get it at this point
mammal
Nope, not close at all.
I like the m7, but not sure anybody else knows what it is. I'm sure there are several ways to get it tho.
Round 11:
Cards used: 13
Guessers: nich/bolt
The Board:
M | M | T | C | EF | T | A
The target word:
someone choose a random number between 1 a 440 and get that word from the spreadsheet and send to d1iabol1cal/ibedrummin/doctor zeus/amazingervin/filthyvermin
for the new page. that's about all im good for π
