GOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLLL




Round 12:

Cards used: 15
Guessers: zeus/ervin

The Board:

RG | C | DL | P | UNKQ | B | S

The target word:
I've pmed to bolt, ibd, d1


r5/r10 with r10 being better
c7 confirmer or backup but I think r10 gets there so won't need it

b5 on 2nd turn if went from right side, but I doubt we go from the right; s8 is shadowfax's shadowfax


I never heard of R10 but I agree it's the best clue. S8 is not as obscure as you make it sound and would work for me if I was a guesser.


Yeah, r10 with c7 confirmer is the way


I don't really consider s8 to be much of a shadowfax at all tbh, but agree they should be able to figure out r10.


rotorcraft


Helicopter?

C7 = chopper
B5 = blade
S8 shadowfax = sigorsky lol

Read a lot about these things after Kobe's passing


Also think I clued Sigorsky in a codenames game here once


Lol seems a lock then

helicopter


πŸ‘


I played my part




Round 13:

Guessers: ervin/bolt

The Board:

this may not be easy

s6 obviously comes to mind but not by itself
b5 is related as well

s6 to the right of b5 is a pretty good combo clue; I think they can deduce that it's not the other option for that combo


Several s words for this. S3, 4 (two), 6. Probably s6 with the s3 confirmer works best.


yeah s3 confirmer like c5/c6 is nice


D7 could be a good confirmer if there's a good c one?

Maybe c4?
s5 is pretty poor but might be ok?


I don't really have anything to add. S6 followed by b5 sounds as good a combo as any.


Yeah I think there are enough clues out there if they think of it

Seems like any path to the answer goes through cluing string so let’s just do that

Just for consolidating all the clues into one post. Time to have a think.


I don't think it's guitar, theory, balloon, yo-yo, or kite. I'm struggling here.


Any other words we can think of?

First one to me was cheese but I don't see how that would be it, maybe something to do with warn or cloth?

'Ive got the World on a String' is a nice tune tho I doubt it's world


I feel inadequate in that I don't have Nich's superpowers. Let's bold yarn and move on to clue #2.
