Wood would probably be capitalised for Anchorwood. I am coming around to the idea of it tho...the entire purpose of an anchor is to stay in place/keep boats from drifting, so there is that. Also, boats can be wooden. But still, that's not really "nonslip".

I still think sink is stronger, but am worried about it being red.


Yea I'm not liking anything need to think for a sec


I'm starting to think it's anchor more and more...

if you want to clue shoe and anchor you want a...PLANT(but can't due to banana and stuff) or heel/anchor type word and maybe it's just this

I'm not immediately thinking of what the magic word is to "put your foot down hard/anchor something in"


Yeah, I have essentially the same thoughts as you. If you had shoe/sink, it seems less likely that your mind would go in that direction.

I'm good to bold anchor if you are.


yea seems the sturdy way to go

anchor


WOW TEAM YOU ARE AMAZING.

I felt like a fool flailing and cluing here. Anchor was blocked by so much but you did it.

good clues Neil, we were confused at the end but there really weren't bad directions for us to go so nonslip kinda pinned us onto the path to correct guesses

def don't think it's a futures word

I was thinking Banana was the target for this and it seemed to be

did spend the last turns giggling about "banana futures"


Nice. We definitely got lucky to be gifted game at the end.


yea it was tricky as well but futures was a really good clue too looking back
