Okay so we're definitely on the right track here.

1 to win.

Bomb or Crash?

Do we skip the first word on the unlimited, or no?

Wait no I misread, duh. Sorry. Busy working.

CHARGE or Crash.

Charge is probably more aggressive a word, is the thing.

I think we go down the list, because we're guessing at least 2, probably 3, from the list, and unlimited is the only way to clue that. Charge is imo the best word for previous clues, and next on our list, so I see no reason to skip it

Charge

I think it's the better fit, but we had to stop and think. No harm in it.

nice job team! had me worried for a sec there thinking you were gonna do some totally random **** and skip over the best word(that was also hit by unlimited) but we stayed on track

fwiw i will NEVER use unlimited as a "skip top of list" - that doesn't make any sense to me and it's also confusing for the guessers because how would you know to randomly skip words or not - i use unlimited as a "guess at least the top word and try to figure out what the intention/specific scenario is from there"

in this game we had a list of England Key Kiwi after the first turn, so my plan was basically to get the remaining 6 words over 2 turns. I clued unlimited figuring you would get some aggress words and run into England, and then on the last turn I could use unlimited again and you could just run down the (now englandless and safe) list and I could clue whatever words were missing

you did great on aggress and the plan was coming to fruition, the top of the list was 3/3 ours and the only missing word was Pitch

way to get there on the last turn and great guessing throughout!

Good job Ervin!

Great clues. Nice to finally get a win in this series, it's been a loooong losing streak

I think beret is better than naming some French king or queen because it's not obvious what you're referring to. Louis could be for CK instead of XVII for example.

Backup of model since a model would wear a beret perhaps.
