Also, aerobies >>> frisbees.


Ooh

That sounds enough like ultimate that it may have worked


Boomerangs are the worst


Maaaaybe on goaltimate? Kinda what nich said it does sound pretty close to ultimate and if we get there that shouuuuld work?

Otoh it's pretty dang shadowfaxy, I haven't heard of it and may have been convinced the target was supposed to be something else


Yeah, I never really considered cluing it because if wham-o whiffed as well then we've just wasted 2 cards and still at square 1.

But if I knew you were heavy into disc golf, I certainly woulda been very tempted heh.


I took a one credit class at the University of Florida called "flying discs" or something similar. It was a class where they taught frisbee. The professor was a legit expert with a few world records. I learned a lot of new throws and got into ultimate and later, disc golf.

Spoiler

I got a C or D because it was an 8 am class and attendance mattered.


Round 9:

Cards used: 9
Guessers: ibd/pog

The Board:

T | RG | M | UNKQ | EF | P | C

The target word:
Sent to d1iabol1cal, doctor zeus, amazingervin, bolt2112


tough one

i'm thinking opposite words will prolly be better than normal words?

opposite c9 is my favorite right now


yh t12 is all I can really think of and its a bit "far"/could get the wrong answer

c9 might be a good left field one?


There's a t11, similar to p5 that could put us in the ballpark...

But probably won't land on our target word, a close one now that I think about it


Ooo there's a c6 that could work


Also a t8 which we would probably want to do the never used t11 version of, I think we have some options

There's just another word very similar to our target we want to keep them off


To go in a completely different direction, c7 ftw imo.


I have a c10 opposite I like. Or a T11.


I really like opposite c9 and think it usually gets it but not gonna die on the hill if someone else has a banger


My guess is that many of our clues are related. Is anyone hanging onto a good P, R, or G for a 2nd clue?


g6 is great for getting exact version of exact word, if needed


I just think an opposite clue is most likely to get them to think of it and then g6 helps with exact word

but I don't know these words ya'll are mentioning so maybe there are non-opposite words that are just as good


C7 hits the exact word.


Realistically there are 2 words it could hit, but you can easily rule out the other one.


then go c7


g9 could be a good confirmer also; goes with p4


Do you know what it is? I don't wanna go rogue just in case it's not as strong as I think it is.

But on the off chance that it misses, someone can clue t11 or p5 and remove all uncertainty.


I don't know what it is, but also busy today so not trying hard to figure out people's clues

I trust it's a good clue and we can adjust if they don't get it
