SIDES - Inaugural Game Thread

Don't think I would've ever gotten basement lol

h6 h-bomb shelter could work, but would likely get bunker first, though confirmers would get us back to basement

I thought about s7 Silence (of the Lambs) and other movies with a basement featured in them

also s4 p4 for sump pump would be another direction

What on earth are you talking about?

I’m asking if you know what I’m referring to for getting the current target word.

Lolol I thought you were talking about basement and quoting an old post

My bad

i11 (from i4/i8) hits a lot less than h6 imo. and pretty sure they can discern h6

h6 but of course hits a lot, could try h9 or something but could be even more confusing

There's the other h6 that I hadn't heard of until just now and wouldn't expect people to know, but if they did it would work

h6 and s7 go with our target perfectly from that other domain, and i5 shadowfax is a direct connection that way as well

they've probably heard of h6 and s7 together but unlikely they know i5

lol now I just went back up to ibd's post to see what he was actually asking about and I see it's exactly what I just posted

it's possible once they know h6 that they deduce s7 but depends

♥

i5 would be legit, especially with h6 s7 confirmers. Definitely risky, but could be huge.

Eh, I’d actually call i5 illegal for reasons we can talk about afterward. But I don’t think it should be allowed.

def interested to hear about that, especially if we have same i5

there is always h9 which is same connection as s5

but we need to figure out what we actually want to clue

h6 is a fine clue but lots of ways for them to go so a bit dangerous

i11 from i4 could be good and they should deduce h6 from there and may have eliminated lots of paths with it?

or maybe a different path?

s5 or s6 is just so good for this but I don't know many good Ts to use to open up the S for turn two

maybe they'll deduce s5 or s6 when they know h6

h6 to the left of w9 probably gets it almost always, so that's a path also to just go h6 and clean up with w9 if need be

if have to go from left to get s5 or s6 then t4/t5 is an option and they'll 100% deduce h6 from that clue and so it's the same but it opens up the s card

Oh hey, I just thought of an h11 which gives us what we need out of h6 and s5. Could be a decent way to go.

oh wow; h11 is perfect lol

that's the clue; who needs s card now

maybe some confirmers now

h11 to left of w9 is still the 2-part way to go

also h11 to the left of t4 works

or h11 to the left of t5 may be more direct way with t5 standing in for w9

I think they can probably get there with h11 clue so I'm good with that

Lol you mean apart from the other 6000 that are above this post?

But yeah, h11 is the clue.

i haven't figured out h11 but sounds like a banger, fire it

go for it

hammersmith

I've got no idea. At all.

Maybe it's some sort of tool (although only Nich mentioned T4) that a blacksmith/hammersmith uses

Unfortunately i'm not very knowledgeable in that area, it's not hammer obv or tongs (T5)

Do you know the names of any other tools?

maybe a mallot? that's kind of like a hammer.

Aren't mallets wooden? No W6 mentioned

Can you remember what that thing is called, got a weird shape and a flat surface which is used as a sort of table to hammer things

I can picture it in my head but can't for the life of me remember what it's called lol
