Codenames for Suckers

Codenames for Suckers

Anyone (preferably who hasn't played in ages/ever and sucks at it like myself) fancy a game of Codenames?

Or regulars if no-one new wants to play and you'll just have to hope i'm not on your team 😃

Snowman
Squirrel
St.Patrick
Street
Sword
Tutu

Sumo
Fence
Ace
Quarter
Second
Bath

box - unlimited


Boom box

Brain box

Guitar is called a git box

Then we've got 3 guardian words

I like Musketeer and then idk

Will think


St Patrick and Sword

Or

Genie and Sword

I don't like every guardian being a person because there are probably better clues, but maybe not...


Litter for box as well

What's a brain box?

As for guardian maybe musketeer, sword+squirrel since they were our next 3 on the list?


I prefer litter box to brain box. A brain box is a clever person but it's a kinda old term and probably British only.

Boom
Litter
Guitar
Musketeer
Sword
Squirrel

Bold it if you agree.

If we fail in the top 3 then I'd pick Brain

If we fail lower down then I'd go Genie , St Pat in that order I think.


Boom
Litter
Guitar
Musketeer
Sword
Squirrel

I hadn’t even clued all of our words yet and couldn’t figure out a clue that would bring tutu anywhere close to the conversation. The box clue was for boom/litter and then run the list.

We were going to lose anyway, but still.

I assumed it would have to be box - 3 because otherwise unlimited wouldn't be given.

box - 2 we go litter, boom and then 1 guardian word.

Why would it have to be three? Why not four? Or two? What the spymaster is generally doing when giving an unlimited clue is telling you that your list is good while having to trade off specificity for the current clue (i.e., how many words it hits). I find it always better to guess two slam dunk words, then go to the list. There’s no reason to force it beyond that, because you can always just add what you think could be a third word to the list.

Oh well, we weren’t winning anyway.


git box must be a British thing lol

GG, i'll sort new board tomorrow unless Donk can do it earlier

Will clue shortly


monaco - 6


I'm thinking of the grand prix and the rich people that live there.

Lap
Pole

Weaker words connected to the grand prix are:

Charge
Sound
Button (Jenson)

I'm thinking that rich people live there:

Millionaire

There are place connections:

Australia
Czech

Monaco has Royalty:

Queen


I think my order would be:

Lap
Millionaire
Pole
Queen (there are other rich grand prix places without royalty)
Australia (It's an actual place and not a nationality)
Button


I don’t know what Button (Jenson) means. Is that a driver’s name?


I agree with the first five, but probably put Australia up a notch or two.
