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’m thinking of two very similar C4s that literally combine to make my C9. So I’m not sure if we’re all just talking about different ****, haha.
This was Coke, Cola, and Coca-Cola btw.
How do we handle hyphens? I know we are including them in the count, but does that mean I can say “I have a C9 that’s hyphenated?”
Water seems the right direction
I think trevi is a place/famous version of somethng watery- so a water company, lake, fountain, pond are things watery I think we can plausibly not know.
Its not an ocean or sea or lake i think we'd know that
Could be a famous tap dancer?
This post got an audible laugh from me.
“The clue almost certainly has to do with water. Maybe Trevi’s a tap dancer!” 😃
Yeah, first goal is to get y’all to think of the word in the first place, which you did with that quoted post
But then we gotta get you to say the one word out of 10 that you mentioned
But our % is based on the guess only, not the conversation, so no way to really get you to know you have mentioned the word
Coca-cola is 9 because we count the hyphen as a letter…and yeah, fountain drink is a great clue also
ugh, sorry we didn't know trevi
fountain is hard to clue for with those letters. good job guys
I don't think you can say "I have a hyphenated 9." I think that's too much info.
The c9 I was thinking of was "cascading".
Yeah my c7/c9 was cascade/cascading
No we can’t say if a word is hyphenated when mentioning c9 or whatever; only when bolding
Round 14:
Cards used: 19
Guessers: zeus/d1
The Board:
EF | IH | DL | B | P | C | A
The target word:
I've pmed to filthy/ibedrummin/bolt/amazingervin
e7
a5
c7 is great but gotta go through a first
I think the A7 —> C7 combo is the winner, with a reasonable chance A7 can do it in its own.
Yeah I agree
Seems to be the best line to take unless someone thinks of something else
are we allowed to clue two words, like "soda fountain"?
cuz i have a chance to get it in one if we can use two words
f7 opposite is good and might get it in one
Tap+Coke coulda gotten them just going soda or soft drink
Tho you’d think they’d realize we didn’t clue Tab so prolly not those
The reason they are fountain is they are “fountain drinks” because they come from a “soda fountain” if not canned/bottled
I have an E10 I think is great and could 1 shot it
You do have to be careful cluing American terms to Euros. They are not known as soda fountains in Australia, and I imagine it's the same story in the UK.
a2 is pretty good
Yea if we can do that it could work
My E10 is entirely different domain from that but hits pretty hard too I think
