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
Surely the p7 was poultry, not peacock?
D4 was duck, which is why I said it was basically the same path (duck cage/turkey aviary).
Only reason I thought cluck could be one shot was because we do two word guesses and so if they deduce aviary or cage then they could get it since they’d get chicken from cluck
Who knows tho; I messed up saying aviary instead of a6
Yeah, I think they would be pretty hard words to deduce tho, and chicken coop seems kind of an odd word to have on the list. It would most likely end up being a food related guess imo.
Yeah prolly
Chicken coop isn’t something you think of unless clued aviary or cage or something
Round 9:
Cards used: 13
Guessers: bolt/zeus
The Board:
T | P | B | T | IH | RG | DL
The target word:
I've pmed the word to filthy, ibd, ervin, d1
d5
r7 if we end up getting to that card
this could be tough; highly variable depending on knowledge base
G7/G9 could be a thing. R4 maybe with something else.
If your d5 is the same thing I'm thinking of I would be concerned they don't know it. I absolutely didn't until googling a minute ago and would not expect most people to know that
D5 if they know about this will be a lock but if they don’t then it’s close enough they can get the idea and get in the realm
Idk feels like some shadowfax equity to me lol
If I was guessing and got clued d5 I would be like wtf
maybe you have a different d5 than me
Is the d5 similar to a d4 that everybody knows? If so, agree that seems really risky.
Yeah similar to d4; but if you were clued that you would easily deduce what it is
I think you're only saying that because you know what it is.
I think I'd rather go with the d4 to get in the realm. They can probably work out the d5 if they know it, and T5 after that should get them there if they don't.
Nah, I guarantee I see the d5 and I equate it to the d4 but slightly different
May not get to the right word then but it gets me in the realm and with deduction on why not d4 we may get there or close
But whatever; if y’all wanna go d4 then that’s fine
Also I think d4 + t5 gets them on the wrong kinds of words
Once you go d4 they are on a wrong track and I don’t see how we right that; plenty of words in that realm associated with t5
Well they will probably know now just from how we're talking about it lol. But words that are similar are not necessarily even related a lot of the time.
We’ll see
I’m just t12: trepidatious
Nah, I'm quite sure this will not lead them down the wrong path. It's not exactly an obvious t5 either.
Prolly not them; I’m thinking of the obvious t5
t5
L5
idk any of the others
can't think of any good opposites
p10
I don’t have anything to add, sorry. I have mixed feelings about the D4/5 discussion, but am fine with either. Nich’s T5 seems like the right call after that; not sure what D1iab’s not obvious T5 is.
I'm pretty firmly against going with nich's t5 if we go the d4/d5 route (assuming we're all talking about the same thing).
I don't know any of filthy's clues yet.
