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
shoots
s6 - shoots
s5 - presumably is shoot
c4
h10
l5
c5
s9
There’s an H10 and an L5 that work well together but sadly can’t combo without skipping a card.
I’m not sure I know S5 for some reason, but H10 and C4 combo almost certainly get it.
There's probably a handful of 10 letter H words, but helicopter jumps out at me.
He scores!
Be back in a bit, sorry pint poured
Does plural mean its some form of active participant e.g. basketballer or gun?
Otherwise they do shot
It could also be shoots like from a plant.
H10 is Hydroponic?
Hmm
Why would that be shoot?
You sound a bit on poiint though.
Whats a baby plant called? A plantling?
Any form of baby plant id imagine theyd do s4 for seed
I think just going something like basketball player or seedling might be good to work out whih side of the shoots we're working o
There's a book called Eats, shoots and leaves. It refers to a joke about a panda that shoots up a bar or a restaurant. The joke is about the misunderstanding caused by a punctuation error. Pandas eat shoots and leaves. But if you put the comma in there, it changes the meaning.
Could The answer be "leaves"? I'm struggling to come up with an L5 or C4 to go with anything that will give us an easy answer.
Leaves = s4, stem > shoots
We need to figure out why shoots is better than shoot or shot.
The title of a moderately well-known book is the best I've got.
I do think its the proactive voice of a basketballer or something
Someone who shoots
Who shoots?
An assassin. An archer. A marksman. I don't think it's a basketball player. You can shoot pool (billiards.) What else?
Sqauddie? Private?
Gunman?
Actually they just do shooter lol
Maybe you aee right and its stem?
yh
leaves
Maybe 60% there? What do others think?
Also, where do we go from here?
60% seems reasonable. I still like L5, but that might just be a me thing and I have no idea if anyone else even knows wtf I’m referencing.
We can try it
Eventually we may need to get to c5 but we’ll need to figure out an IH clue to get to c
I like an h3 clue
For reference, the board is:
DL | DL | C | IH
H3 then c5 prolly gets it within 1-3 guesses so before we end, but if an L can help first then that’s fine also
i got a D9 that i think will get us the correct guess
I'm having trouble thinking of what the hints could be even knowing what the word is lol
I may be thinking same thing as IBD for l5, a little obscure and doubt they get it off that but perhaps
Absolutely fine with any options here
And yea 60% seems around there, they're on the right track
