Pine and figure? Stick?
I'm only vaguely aware of who he is, so not super sure where to go/if I'm missing something obvious
tall tale lumberjack dude who has an ax and a big ox named babe
figure is a lock
pine is good option because he's a lumberjack cutting down pine trees
stick because an axe is on a stick, but I wonder if stick figure could be something else?
of course, pine figure could also have been Yogi
he's a midwest guy, so not Pacific; plus coulda down Balboa or Magellan for Pacific figure
I think it comes down to pine or stick
I'm leaning pine but I wanna think about it for a bit
figure/pine, stick backup seems like the way to go?
yeah, I don't think stick -> axe is better than pine
figure
pine
bottles
stick
well I guess slightly more panorama/alaska equity for pine than stick, but meh
Brutal board all the way around with blockers everywhere. Nice job, boys. Tough one, TBob. gg all

Great clues
Your terms were perfect to avoid blockers
Oof @ stick being assassin; that choice was for all the marbles it seems
Blues getting Alaska for us messed up my flow a little. I had planned to clue pine on its own for the penultimate clue and then would go with Prospector - 4 to try and close it out.
Great clues
Made it really easy for us to get it right
So just to clear up Panorama...
I was really swinging and hoped either of you was a racing fan, knew a bunch of Australia stuff, or was otherwise familiar with the Mount Panorama race circuit. Mount, Pacific, Pole was what I was going for.

Okay that makes a lot of sense, but yeah, I had no chance of knowing that one.
Sorry TBob. Never heard of that.

Mavericks - 3
bump
bump for neil and tbob to guess words for the clue
Top Gun: Maverick - sequel to Top Gun
Maverick - movie about a dude trying to enter a poker tournament on a riverboat
Dallas Mavericks - NBA team
These are the only things that come to mind for why it's capitalized. Also need to figure out the reason it's plural if not a reference to the team.
I think it's just Center, Court, Star? Texas is the lone star state. Spurs is probably riskier than Mavericks
Doubt this has anything to do with Maverick the film, we'd get a different gambling word if it were words like casino, horseshoe.
So maybe
Center
Court
Star
Missile
?
Buck - Mavericks -> Bucks
Center/Court
Star -> Dallas Mavericks/Dallas Stars
I almost think Buck/Court/Center would be NBA instead but it's not like Star is super strong itself.
If we agree on Court/Center, want to do those first? And I can let you pick between Buck and Star, with other as backup (plus missile -- can't hurt to have more words on backup list)
