Codenames for Suckers

Or regulars if

Or is degree just a makeup word?

It's been guessed by both teams already and it's not yet revealed. Not sp sure we should go for it personally upon reflection.

Coat missing Moscow makes it more likely to miss degree.


Yeah, degree for coat not Titanic.

Kids is a possibility I didn't think of.

This I disagree with. We still need 2 coat words.

Though if you want to move it down the priority list, I'm okay with that.


Let's go with your idea. There's nothing you've said that I disagree with in any major way.

Fence maybe?

You can take your dog (lab) on a hike with you, bit of a stretch though lol

I'm good with going day/jet/eagle/glass first see if we're still alive


if lab was ours he'd have gone with an unlimited clue as that was next on our list after glass


Oh yeah lol, you might tell a kid to 'take a hike' but other than that and Fence can't see anything else, if it's one of the countries i'd go Greece over Germany I think that's more well known for hiking places

I'm at:

Day
Jet
Eagle
Glass
Fence
pass

Kid
Greece

Star and lab?


Lab coat

Of course

Did the Titanic follow the North Star or something?


Ugh, lab coat a pretty embarrassing miss.

Probably. Regardless, I can't think of any other reason to clue with "cosmo" in the word unless you're looking for this.

Lab
Star


I think Star is right, company was called White Star Line iirc


Yep, gg.

Red not guessing degree when given an unlimited clue with it at the top of their list and then blue guessing it for them next turn was fun for Nich and me.

good try; tough board that I couldn't get to, especially with the blockers

to be clear, unlimited means guess down the list; I don't want you reordering your list as I plan my turns based on your prior list

the only time you 'skip first one and guess 2nd' on unlimited is when there is one word left that I didn't clue this turn; by not cluing n-1 I denied top word being correct; by not cluing a number, I told you something on list is good, so you know it's #2 on the list

but the 90% use case for unlimited, and 100% when there is more than 1 left to guess beyond what I just clued, is to guess top n of my list (n up to prior clued number)

forge was for dwarf, degree, glass...anything made of glass was forged, dwarves are known for forging tools, and a forge runs at a very high degree; pit and paper both make sense but I missed pit; glass was the reason I used forge and not just blacksmith or anvil or similar word

driftwood was for just wave+trunk...I shoulda clued swimsuit instead to get kid in there with wave/trunk but wouldn't have mattered

hike was for kid, poison (ivy/oak/sumac), eagle, day...day and eagle are obvious; kids thinking of scouts (but couldn't clue scout bc didn't want military meaning for Germany, etc.)

I don't get jet for hike tho; just because you could (very rarely) hear a jet when hiking in the woods? or is there some other connection there?
