So buck was right for the wrong reason. Xander, have you heard of a bucks party before?


I have heard of it, but it's not British and not what I was going for.

In the UK we use Stag Do for the guys and Hen Do for the girls.

Google suggests it's Australian specific.


And I thought we were silly to miss it because it hits that movie harder than almost anything heh.


Makes sense to think that, but nah, just needed you to not guess agent.

locations - 3


Hollywood
London
Bermuda


Just want to double check there's no other meaning of locations before bolding


Oh Crud there's China too


London Hollywood and Bermuda are the more specific locations, so I still prefer them, but China would be backup.


Or have I got that backwards and location is general and destination is specific?


Whichever way you rub it the 4th word is gonna be neutral. Would be suicide if the 4th was Blue or Purple


agreed, I'm generally not asking my team to mindread and figure out which wavelength of 3/4 I'm on unless it's some last ditch effort last turn thing, prob just a safe 3 over 2 turns

I think location is kind of specific like destination? destination would probably avoid Bermuda a little too

I'm good with first 3 you said, China my least favorite

Ah well

At least we've got 3 in the pocket


explosion - 4


Definitely match and sound. Then there are quite a few options I could see, but I don't love any of them.


i'm wondering why not bomb... is he trying to get bomb words plus match, or is he trying to avoid time?

but we don't have many options here, so i'm thinking the next two should usually be in tick/time/van


Sound

Tick
Time

Van
Plot

leaning that


Also think screen and undertaker could be in the mix. I kinda think he is avoiding time. And he might clue boom for tick?


undertaker connection is explosion > deaths > undertaker? that's two pretty big steps for me to guess

could see screen tho. probably better than plot at least

i don't think boom or bomb hits match unless i'm missing something?
