Kundera - unlimited


Ice caves are a thing…oops

So force and church to end sports


Czech genius gets us to 7 so we still are one away ugh


dunno who this is


could definitely see post or hand being a sports word btw, with force or church being spursed

post seems like the better answer. more likely handball is overlooked as a sport while post is a pretty common term


Wind is next on our list and he did unlimited

It’s either another word for this clue or wind (which wind sports is a thing so if we spursed church wind is our last sports word)

I don’t want to go post etc out of the blue


He’s a philosopher that wrote incredible lightness of being; I don’t know much about it so not gonna get any esoteric references

Assuming it’s Czech genius and that’s it then we can just go wind

It was made into a movie, so could be Hollywood but seems weakish but maybe

So wind or Hollywood are my best bets for final word

If we had noticed ice cave and gone force church last time we would had wind as next now for n-1 clue or not and this turn would be twice as easy :(


Wind sports are a thing

Sports movies from Hollywood are a thing

Ugh


It’s gotta be more than Czech genius or he woulda done someone more famous like Kafka or really any European genius gets us there

For Hollywood I personally woulda done Herzog; he’s German but close enough; or any European director

But maybe he did this for Hollywood; or maybe some other word we don’t know the connection for

Right now I’m 80% on Hollywood I think but not ready to pull trigger yet


why would diab unblock wind when he could just do a different 2 clue. seems pretty dangerous!

anyway, him being a writer could have something to do with it

you also write posts. you also write with your hands πŸ˜†

i'm up for guessing one of those


pretty sure the hollywood clue would be different, like you said. you can accomplish the same thing with other euro connections


Kafka for generic writer or philosopher is much better known

This isn’t cluing for European writer


Ours:
Force
Church
Czech
Genius
?

Unlikely to be ours:
Band - Nah, a genius euro band here
Hand - euro genius artist
Hollywood - Herzog or some euro director
Post - Kafka

Ones unsure how to link:
Head
Hole
Pie
Thief - maybe he has book about a thief?

And then wind is final unlimited word, but again why not Kafka or other well known euro genius


hole is out

Force
Church
Czech
Genius

bolding these so we're not wasting time


Blue x4


4x blue


Lol


Great; so we have like a 1 in 6 chance at winning here
