Gotta get the word exactly we said

I don’t remember this agreement. The last I remember, it was some musing about whether the bolding football should get foot and there was no resolution.


Kiss would lead to beak

Maybe they forgot bird noses are on their beaks?

They woulda been focused on mouth and m not a letter


You think duck + kiss is the slam dunk D1iab was referring to in order to get beak?


Hunt just seems like so many words

Weapon
Winchester
Deer >> duck
Killing/killer

Dunno just doesn’t feel like hunt

But maybe all these other words aren’t just other birds kiwi quail etc

What else would you guess from duck + kiss?

I don’t love it they tho

Just doesn’t feel like Hunter with no weapon or killer clue


by Doctor Zeus m

L7 quite ok?

K4?

Maybe Zeus is a big game hunter so leopard and kill were his first two thoughts


Whippoorwill could be w12 but not sure how that would help us


Weapon and Winchester lead to way more things way more quickly than hunt/hunter.

Duck/deer/quail/kill could’ve all been mentioned in the confirmers.

Duck + kill = hunt/er is more slam dunk than duck + kiss = beak imo.


I’m going to bed and I’d prefer they’re not still waiting on us tomorrow morning. Go ahead and bold what you want and we either win or get clued k4.

I’m on hunter>beak, but you’re the SIDES whisperer, and I’m fine with you taking the lead here.


I just think you go deer over duck if it’s hunt/hunter as that is much more common

And Deer Hunter movie is right there and Duck Hunt is right there

They seem to have clued tons of bird words and quack which is with the beak but not part of hunting

I’m gonna just say lack of nose is due to them thinking about mouth for beak because it’s easy to not think of their nose as being part of their beak

beak so we can move to next clue


unfortunately not


k4?


Sorry ibd


kill


Kill and not killer would be better for hunt and not hunter, yeah?

Duck + kill = hunt
Duck + killer = hunter


If it’s hunt, it was a real shame that Duck wasn’t capitalized.


yeah, Duck capitalized was a slam dunk Hunt guess last turn because it hit the other words harder than soup or dynasty


agreed they'd have to go killer instead of kill if it was hunter

i'm good with hunt if you are


Hunt

In b4 0%


Yeah, that's it. Do ducks even have beaks? I mean I guess they do, but still.

Obviously the intention was for duck to be capitalised there. Not sure what the hell ervin was doing.

W12 was Wilderpeople. Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a pretty well-known movie, but maybe you guys haven't heard of it.


Yeah

First instinct about no nose
+ ibd’s instinct about hunt
+ chance Ervin just forgot to capitalize

= shoulda gone hunt this morning


Yea oh well I didn't think it would matter but shoulda done it, you had alright guessed quail so I thought you were gonna get there easily

Would you have gotten it if I trolled with a Kittridge clue?


It’s ok; worth the extra card if it reminds everyone to capitalize

If you don’t when the word you clue and the target can be capitalized together then guessers are gonna assume that’s not the word because you declined to take the option to do so


Just figured it was similar enough to deer hunting or quail hunting that it would hit anyway, oh well



Just to be super clear for future games, the word has to be exact, right? So hunter/hunting wouldn't have counted as correct?
