Forced Unlimited Guessing Codenames

Forced Unlimited Guessing Codenames

It's codenames, and the clueing is normal.
But your team has to keep guessing until they win, hit the assassin, or hit a wrong word.

Sign up below. I think 6 or 8 is probably optimal.

I think it's likely to be neutral. But, yeah, it's really bad if it's red, so your idea of guessing something random has a lot more merit than I care to admit.

It's very close for me. If we could pass, I'd be pushing for that very hard right now. But being forced to guess puts us in a tough spot.


Oh yea we'd 1000% be passing lol

My favorite randoms are Pound and Web

Snowman seems like the "safest" most neutral likely to me but I don't really wanna guess it

I just don't know exactly what a Calibur is(and am not looking to discuss it 🙂) but kinda don't wanna guess any proper nouns


I'd be totally happy guessing into a neutral here...we just don't have any guarantees that another surfer candidate would be neutral...and it has the downside of being unlikely to be our last word

I do agree that neither Crash nor Bermuda is likely to be our winning word.

The problem is that hitting a red word is almost as bad as hitting the purple one, and there are 3 of them out there.

If they had 7 words revealed, I'd say let's go for it. If they had 5, I'd say absolutely not. 6 is this weird middle ground where it's not impossible for them to finish, but it's really dangerous for us to help them out.

Let's say we take the probable neutral. How likely do you think it is that they can get the final 3 words out of 10 next turn?


Some combos are easier to link than others but I would guess they're like 20ish % to get all 3

If I knew a word was neutral I'd totally guess it, I'm just concerned there's a chance our "safe neutrals" could still be Red and they wouldn't have the upside of winning on the spot

But if you think something is def safe like Bermuda or something I'm fine with that


20% is pretty low. I'm good taking crash as the likely neutral over a rando.

I have never heard of that lol

I think their chances might be worse than 20% LOL.


I feel like match is the best starter


Match seems fine

Maybe clayfighter is an internet game, so web could work


And a claymore is a type of explosive device. Maybe it’s a web game where you fight matches against opponents with bombs and stuff.

That’s about the best 3-word combo I can force


match
Web
Bombs

Gg


Hate to spoil it as a guesser on the other team but that is definitely not right lol


Match has to be one, 3rd word could be anything

I'll be shocked if it's not Snowman as that's the key figure on the cover of the game but impossible to know if you don't know the game

The N64 version is expensive AF nowadays, can be thousands
