oh no


I don’t know why I’m having a hard time understanding why cell was regarded as a slam dunk for tap.


followed - 2


So, tail is right. Oil is not right. I’m thinking war isn’t right either, but I don’t know what else goes with mafia.


And why it’s in past tense


I missed it at first but someone may tap a cell phone

Guess spymaster also missed it

Oh they only have 4 so we may not be dead

America
Oil
War

Cell
Tail

N-1 so oil is ours

Not unlimited so war isn’t ours

Tail is ours for followed (and likely mafia)

Yeah, I miscounted and thought we only needed two.

Oil
Tail
???


I legitimately have zero idea what the 2nd followed word could be.


Australia - not seeing it
Ball - cotton tail, cotton ball; nah
Bermuda - not seeing it
Bridge - followed a bridge like followed a path? meh
Center - not seeing it
Drill - you followed the coach when doing drills? meh
Drop - don't see it
Kiwi - don't see it for fruit or New Zealand
London - don't see it
Slip - slip + tail = evade so not this

not seeing this at all right now


Do you know anything about the game bridge? Could follow be a term used?

I thought about drill too, but that seems really bad.

I guess now we have to do the ol’ “best clue” thing for each remaining word + tail.


Good god, tail is an atrocious word to connect to this board.


Hmm, maybe drop? Like someone is followed to a drop point? Also kind of connects to mafia/crime.

In music, the bridge can follow the chorus.


it's been a bit since I played bridge, but I think you'd just use the word follow, which also works for tail

I don't know of a specific term 'followed' that is distinct from 'follow' in bridge


yeah at a drop site they always say "were you followed?"


Australia + tail = kangaroo
Ball + tail = cotton
Bermuda + tail = ?
Bridge + tail = ?
Center + tail = ?
Drill + tail = ?
Drop + tail = ?
Kiwi + tail = fuzzy?
London + tail = Ripper or pickpocket?
Slip + tail = evade

a lot of these words suck with tail


cork - 2:
bottle
oil?

Mafia - 4:
Cell
Oil
Tail
?

so even if oil is cork and Mafia, we still need a 4th mafia word (makes sense because Mafia - 4 was clued when we had 5 words so all remaining words have to hit Mafia)

so best word for Mafia and for followed


cork - 2
Bottle
Oil?

performance - 4
Watch
Piano
Comic
Beat?

Mafia - 4
Cell
Oil
Tail
???

followed - 2
Tail
???


I wish we had put drop at end of our list (or any of these words) because then the lack of 0 clue would tell us that word isn't ours or the 0 clue would have meant it was ours


if we remove the words I could connect to tail, then we have left:

Bermuda - don't see Mafia or followed connection
Bridge - Mafia did infrastructure/building projects, so slight connection; don't see followed connection
Center - don't see for Mafia or for followed
Drill - Mafia did infrastructure/building projects, so slight connection; followed drill instructions seems kinda weak as does Mafia
Drop - money/info/drug drops is same connection for Mafia and followed

I think drop is the de facto right now


they need 4

would it be crazy to just go tail/oil/pass and not clear up drop or other words for them (it was next on their list)


I mean going next on their list doesn't clear anything up for them since they can do n or n-1 or unlimited clue depending, but point stands; if we can't figure out followed do we just pass? maybe he was just doing 2 clue so we'd know oil is ours and war isn't and knew he couldn't connect the 2 words


Is it insane to guess drop here staring at a blue tap clue? They still need four, drop is next on their list, and they seemed generally lost on the tap clue.

What if we passed?
