Good luck to us.
So everyone forgot that death was top of list after turn 1 when I did unlimited clueβ¦eye had it on list then when he dropped down cricket (was blue) he also dropped death on accident and it was forgotten
Unfortunately for blue string was assassin
What a shitshow lol
List please
And yeah, I never bothered to go back and check that list with death at the top because I assumed they guessed next on list. But I also knew cricket was 2nd and you did unlimited so assumed it was yours.
IT WAS CRICKET
did you guys really not guess cricket for squash lol
We guessed it but we busted beforehand. Then nich clued unlimited and we ditched it.
LOL
Yeah their list was great except cricket and youβd eventually do it so I clued unlimited anyway to unblock it, hoping theyβd move it to bottom anyway, which they did
But death got forgotten about

Normally you'd yell at your team for doing something like that haha...I can't believe that worked out so well for them.
But we were never winning this anyway. I have no idea what the 4th squash word was either.
Yeah, I expected and would expect them to just go down the list bc I clued unlimited on turn 2, but it worked out here
I didnβt want to have to re-clue bill/figure/death and yβall had root, our word, at top of your list so I knew yβall were in trouble and he clued squash to make cricket on your list, making it even more ok to let them guess a blue one in order to get the others on our list
Root at top of your list meant he had to either waste a turn on a 0 clue or had to clue n like he did here, which risked an assassin guess
Oh and if you had guessed cricket on your turn then I woulda done 2 clue root/olympus for n-1 and trust them go back and see death was next; but if you neutraled out before cricket reveal then I woulda had to do 3 clue for death/root/olympus or a 1 clue because cricket was next on 2nd turn list and had to hope they remembered death to make final turn easier
I realised we forgot about Death soon after lol us
GG all
Do squashes have pits? Might've been the 4th squash word
Would you believe that I forgot squash was a food item? Because I don't believe it
Just a phenomenally bad clue. Sorry team
LOL me mentioning death and then just deleting it from the list entirely.
Glad I was right about cricket at least.
Man. I saw Loch Ness and thought "Could that be a problem? Nah..."
Trust your gut.

Something like that at first glance
Mostly okay with that. I've got Shakespeare way higher, as in basically a lock. I'm a little lower on cycle/day/fall.
I think I'm at:
Shakespeare
Team
Chain
Floor
Craft
Cycle
Plot
Day
Fall
Yeah I like Shakespeare more also
I like floor over chain as itβs a production floor, but more of a supply chain
I also think fall production (of a play/musical in school, etc.) is better than day so Iβd swap those 2 where they are at
