SIDES - Inaugural Game Thread

In this thread, we will play a new word game called Sides. It's somewhat similar to codenames, but cooperative and diff

Yea opposites I haven't thought of anything besides 'antiquated'

Electric voltage?


by IBeDrummin m

Yeah, I’m thinking something like static electricity or electric charge.

Electric voltage?

Im fine with any of these, as long as electric/electricity is one of the words. Go ahead and bold whichever you prefer.


Electric voltage


Id say like 75%?


75% seems in the ballpark

I think p7 gets them on the right track


Wooo yea! I was expecting like 7%!


P8 as well- and feels combined together gets there?


P7 perfectly fine too


Actually i miscounted

I have two p8s

Dunno what this p7 is


75% seems a little misleading. I mean, it is in a sense, but it's more likely to send them down the wrong path imo.


I'm all about the p7.


Yeah it’s tough to do ballpark % especially bc we don’t do them often so don’t have any kind of calibration

But I can see anywhere from 25-75% being justified

Hopefully they don’t read too much into it


Go p7 d1


protest

But I can see anywhere from 25-75% being justified

lol


Now I'm on something like roadblock/traffic jam/gridlock type thought


Yeah, roadblock sounds decent. Not sure how tf electric voltage is anywhere close to 25% for that much less 75%, but here we are.


Time to figure out the O3 that is a complete lock.


Resistance keeps coming to mind for me, which is pretty good for protest and connects well with impedance.


Bump


Still have not figured out this O3

Should we try some kind of traffic resistance? Maybe electric cars could cause a jam of some kind?


Yeah, not sure how to connect that to protest tho. And I’m lost on O3, which is what we’ll get if we miss this round.

by IBeDrummin m

I keep coming back to this. If impedance means something that blocks/hinders/resists/halts progress, then seems like we’re looking for another word that also has this definition, but it’s not the most common usage of the word.

And O3 is a lock.

Oil
Oar
Own
Old
Ore
Oak
Off
Owl
Orb
Orc
Ode
Owe
Oat
Ohm
Oaf
One

I don’t see any of these hitting impedance/protest. I wonder if we’re looking for an acronym.


Power grid keeps coming to mind too but idk what that's have to do with a protest.

Think we probably just gotta guess some blockade/resistance/opposition(ideally in the road) and see what we get


I had a thought last round that P7 could’ve been passive, because I was thinking passive resistance (which actually would cover protest and impedance pretty nicely - as well as the whole traffic blockade sort of deal). But I don’t think our target word/s is passive resistance, so now I’m not really sure what to do.

In the same way we got electric incorporated last round, I’d like to get resistance incorporated this round somehow. But I’m not too sure how to do that through the lens of blocking the road.


Traffic resistance? Idk haha, think we'll need another clue so im cool if you find a good pairing to go with it that you wanna try
