Just One Game Thread

lol I thought this might be a miss so I went cheese so that you would not pick cheese for a -1. Getting that point was bonus imo.. g job team.

Thought of it but it is such a common surname... I figured Wendelstedt would have worked for either insanity or housenuts.

Umpire was hardest one to clue for imo. Was worried about duping and not too many things get you there.

Was mostly thinking baseball, strike, referee, Angel, Hernandez. The latter two could go so many different ways.

Good job team.

Team A clues for Donk:

1. flip, Fosbury, pre
2. orange
3. Furious, McDonald's, speedy
4. Muppet, Master, dummy
5. Lavender, Prince, plum

1. I am sorry I don't know who or what Fosbury is relating to and I've been staring at flip and pre trying to conjure a connection and I failed. Sorry pass

2. orange... fruit? can't risk it pass

3. fast and furious, fast food, speedy fast

4. puppet

5.I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain

Fosbury flop is the high jump method.

Traffic duped on 2 if that helps

oh god, i had no idea about the high jump but i knew id kick myself when i heard the answer. flip flop... pre flop... damnit

i guess jam? i was gonna say i've not heard of orange jam but over here we call it marmalade

Ah it was cone

Marmalade is amazing tho

I'm not going to push this hard, but I don't think Muppet was a legal clue there.

Why not?
Is flip legal for flop?

If muppets aren't puppets, I see your point, but they are puppets. Think it's a fine clue.

Like for table, I agree you can't clue able.

Clueing mouse for house which be interesting. Mouse in the house is an expression. That's more borderline that muppet for puppet imo.

Yeah I think muppet is fine as they are actual puppets, mouse/house not sure about probably leaning towards no

I think the issue is muppet/puppet have same base word

Muppets are muppets cuz theyre surreal

'idiot' would've been a great clue for muppet, although that might be British slang lol

Just waiting on Nich for his clues

Team B clues for d1iab:

1. corpse, boner, rigid
2. Sabres, NY, Silence
3. royalty
4. Brooklyn, Terabithia, under
5. Wrexham

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Muppet...

Under is capitalized, my bad

We ran kinda bad here cause I bet all of us wanted to clue pine but were afraid it would dupe. I got scared to do traffic thinking it may also dupe, but then none of us even did pine sadly and my orange by itself isn't solvable

1. stiff hopefully
2. Not 100% on this one but gonna roll with buffalo
3. This could be about a bajillion things pass
4. bridge
5. This should maybe be a pass, but I can't imagine anyone would clue this for anything but welcome

No idea what the word is but is you're an allowable clue?

Silence was for Silence of the Lambs as Buffalo Bill was the serial killer in it

And yeah, only reason for Wrexham

Good job 4/4

I don’t see a reason to outlaw apostrophes when we allow symbols (including ‘ )

Butterfly duped for #3 if that helps for
