Regular Run of the Mill NO LIST Codenames!
Post if you want in, ideally 8 people but the normal game - guess your stuff and ideally go fast bolding away a guess at a time(Snapguess + guess + etc). Spirit of the game is to just bold away at what you think, keep 0-1 max backup and go quick.

row
All those are red.
ok so good job on row lol
Olympus? meant that before instead of the not-on-the-board skyscraper
our turn is over, but no not olympus
lol actually drop being ours lowered row’s equity but it was a safe guess anyway
Oh yea we got chocolate to start, look at us popping off!

astrodome - 3
wat
Diamond
I guess telescope could still be in the mix. An iffy clue, but already probably clued and debated with System
It’s a sports venue, so pretty giant. The Astros play the Rays, but that’s a 2-stepper
Concert - I’m sure there are concerts held in the astrodome; this was our next guess after beat tho
Dance - nah
Diamond - yes, baseball
Film - ballgames are filmed/televised
Giant - it’s big
Honey - nah
Olympus - nah
Ray - another baseball team
Shark - nah
Smuggler - no
Spy - there was that big controversy with the Astros spying on other teams and stealing signs
Telescope - astro(nomy) connection isn’t legal, but might need to consider anyway to close out system, unless we think System was for concert
I’m probably at diamond>>>>>>concert>>spy/giant>>>telescope>>>>the field
I’m generally okay with overlooking this not being n-1 because of the spirit of no list. But happy to be pushed on that.
Wow, I was positive diamond was a pointy word lol.
Is there any other meaning for astrodome? It should be capitalised if it's for the stadium. Anyway, agree with diamond and I'm very firmly on telescope as well. Don't think he ever gives a clue like that if it's not ours. 3rd is really tough, but I definitely don't like spy.
I have never heard the term “astrodome” outside of the context of the old stadium, but it’s possible that it was always a play on planetariums or something. The Astros have always had stars in their logo, and Houston is space city USA or whatever.
So we could legit be looking at diamond/concert/telescope here.
Concert could still be no good, but diamond is obv and telescope seems solid now

They are definitely the 3 I like most in a vacuum, but if telescope and concert were both ours, then surely we get an unlimited clue here?
Next favourite would be giant, but if that was ours then why wouldn't he clue Sphinx 3 for egypt/head/giant? That would've been a slam dunk.
concert
diamond
for sure
I'm inclined to giant for the third word. Gets equity from size and the team.
There is absolutely no way we can't guess telescope here.
Well, at this point, I know of nothing better for another system word.
Concert/Diamond/Giant/Telescope/Autopass?
Oh wait we only need three.
So you want Concert/Diamond/Telescope over Giant?
With the 'astro' in astrodome pointing to telescope.
Bah, I see it. Have to win here, etc.
