c6/related c8 could be change/changing

so then what is s7

I was thinking blinker/turn signal but that would be change steering which is s8

michelin/steering could be that or could be alignment

change/service doesn't do much

change/speaker I don't think there are gonna be car audio type words on the list

sensor is 6 letters
seating is 7 but change/seating doesn't do much for me


Before you go full Sherlock on this, I feel like I should say that this is seriously not solvable yet.


well I gotta wait for Zeus anyway

agree too many options right now so we're just gonna have to guess a domain to see if it's the right domain and get a 2nd clue


Oops sorry


Michelin = tyres + restaurant


That theyve gone michelin over everything says something- but- i agree its car related

Maybe its to do with the person who fits it- hence the thnnnnnngg most ppl change?

So could go automotive engineer?


Mechanic would be the term that could be on a car

We don’t call them automotive engineers


Yh i think it hits quite a bit- but- and- can see why tehy wouldn't do service which is practically the closest to mechanic?

I think its a good guess. Just different enough to fit their skepticism but close enough to help us know if were on track


auto mechanic


0%

D1iab can go for whatever he and bolt have been talking about, imo


Is it the s4/s5 thing now?


That was not the word I had in mind, and not totally sure this is what bolt was talking about either, but let's do it...

shoe


Hope they have a good c word lolol


Shoe is placed to the right of Michelin.


So rubber shoe

Like galoshes or rain boots etc

Or tire shoe like brake shoes, but then it woulda been plural I think

shoe

I was thinking of shoe.


Not supposed to say that, tho I don’t think it’ll change anything


Was having a few bets on the ponies and came across this.

Spoiler
Show


I'd watch Shadowfax race a Bevo with a head start


a shoe with wheels is roller skates

and that's a tough word with only m/c/s and can't use skate in the clue

Cannibals capitalized woulda been a good clue if you knew I was a speed skater and Hyper Cannibals are great wheels (and what I use)

Sure-Grip woulda been a less esoteric and more direct as that is a big brand, but again you didn't know I'm a skater and most of you prolly aren't either unless you grew up in the 80s/90s

gotta see if any of your other words fit, but that's the most direct answer for 'tire shoes' clue

I don't expect anyone on the team to get the c6 I have. It's related to a c8 that isn't necessarily obvious either. The s7 is more direct. I'm asking for some trust that this combo gets us there.

If anyone has other ideas I'm all for it.

C6 is circle, related to c8 circular
S7 is sliding

Roller skates also makes sense in thr left right nature of their clues....


M6->s4 is moving shoe maybe

S11 Solarbabies never mentioned, but that’s an esoteric 80s movie that prolly wasn’t thought of

In general movies and tv shows seem like a good way to clue but could also make the game easier

Yeah they put Michelin in front of shoe to make it read as:

β€œTire shoe”
β€œWheel shoe”
β€œCar shoe”
β€œDrive shoe”

Etc

So I think roller skates is the most direct meaning of β€œwheel shoe”

Open to thinking of other stuff, but I feel pretty good about this


Yh it also fits with the narrative of us not getting it in one

Lets bold it?
