Codenames for Suckers

Anyone (preferably who hasn't played in ages/ever and sucks at it like myself) fancy a game of Codenames?

Or regulars if

yeah im not sure what to leave out of the top 5 you have there, I'm fairly confident in Africa but I'm also not sure what I'd take out to put it in. Happy to go with that list i guess.


yeah, Egypt is hotter on average than Africa on average, I assume, since it's closer to the equator than much of Africa and also has a lot of desert

Beat and Maracas?


Percussion seems more like the clue for those two. I think this clue gets us away from maracas.

It’s not Moon because the clue isn’t drummer.

Drum heads are the surfaces you play on that are stretched across the drum.

Bucket drumming is huge in street performance and was made internationally famous by Stomp.

I think beat/bucket = drums
I think beat/head = drum

My only hesitance with guessing head is because of how well it hits hot, especially with pepper neutral.

Hmm


I’m at risk of getting too expert here - go ahead and bold what you like, none of what was mentioned should be orchid.


You don't beat all percussion which is why I think drum was the clue.

Agreed on Moon.

What you call a drum head we'd call a drum skin on this side of the pond so I'll have to take your word for it.

Bucket was my preferred backup choice.

Beat means more than just β€œto hit,” especially in a musical context and especially when it comes to percussion/drumming.

And technically, an instrument is called a percussion instrument because it is struck. It’s one of the debates re: whether the piano is a percussion instrument. Maracas is one of the few exceptions I can think of that isn’t struck. But who gives a ****, because maracas was correct, so I clearly don’t know wtf I’m talking about.


Maybe Jeremy’s famous brother Jerry Irons


Jerry Seinfeld
Jerry Rice
Jerry Garcia
Ben and Jerry’s ice cream

Coenames is like sheep. Being right has value, but having the same thoughts as someone else is the key.

We're 6-0 up on this board so far, so go us.


if have gave unlimited clue then we would have done next 3 for hot:

iron
head
Egypt

so assuming at least one is wrong; but iron isn't too dangerous since no 0 clue

mouse is the only word I still see for Jerry


some stabs:
dash - for Jerry Rice, WR for SF 49ers so dash hits if he means this Jerry
mouth - for talkers like Jerry Seinfeld and Jerry Springer; also, just Jerry being a person's name and people have a mouth

I don't even have a 3rd stab for fourth word :(


I think ibd is just too close to the subject matter

drum = instrument; maracas = instrument so they are connected


I guess if I had to choose a 4th word right now i'd go with point

Jerry Rice scored tons of points
Jerry pointed at Tom and laughed a lot (I think)
Jerry Seinfeld pointed out funny stuff about mundane topics
lots of finger pointing on Jerry Springer

so I guess I'm on:

mouse
mouth
point
dash
iron
autopass

head
africa
minute


Those seem super thin but I don't have anything better.
