triangular - 3


pyramid

i think glaciers can be, but maybe bell is next best?

if it was "triangle" i'd be wanting square, but not so much with this clue


How about dice? Those role playing games use triangular dice


hmmm yeah, that's probably best

cruise - unlimited


So 3 cruise words and 2 backup bat words

I'd imagine the backups for bat are correct, but I guess we can revisit that if necessary

Butterfly and Plate are our backups.

Cruise hmm

Glacier seems likely.

Steam perhaps

+1 more.

BTW this is just first impressions. I've not looked thoroughly at the list, thought about other meanings of cruise or potential blue words.


Also we need to consider that perhaps we're not expected to win this turn. Blue still have 3 unclued words...


i wouldn't necessarily say 3 cruise words, definitely the backup bat words and i agree with butterfly + plate(not sure on wind but lean no)

glacier and steam were the 2 that stuck out to me too...but then Titantic - 2 would have been a much clearer clue for that so maybe he's avoiding glacier here(a cruise really doesn't have anything to do with it normally)


Cruises of Alaska and Antartica regularly go past or stop so you can see glaciers.

The titanic hit an iceberg and not a glacier, so I don't see titanic as a better clue. Also things like baby and wheel would be in the conversation for titanic (women and children in the lifeboats).

I'm not certain we're expected to win here because blue still have 3 unclued words. I think more likely our backup list is not quite correct. 2 put of 3 back ups are correct needing 2 turns to get them guessed.

Probably Butterfly and wind but we shouldn't deviate from the list.

I say we go for

Glacier
Steam
Butterfly
Plate

And then reevaluate.

Backups should be
Wind
Wheel
Wedding

Imo


Hmmm I'm interpreting this kind of differently - I feel our backups are good(reason for the unlimited clue) and the clue itself could be for as few as 1

So I was thinking we could butterfly, plate, steam and then decide if we want to do glacier or not(or glacier instead of steam first but steam still seems safer to me)


How about

Butterfly
Plate
(Wind as backup if one of these comes back bad)

Steam
Glacier
Wheel
Wedding

???

We can have the list for back up purposes but you can do it a word at a time and chat between if you want to reassess


Yea that list looks good and good to bold first 3
