How does back connect with steam?
I'm skeptical of being so reactive to the new clue that we disregard part of the old clue.
ESPECIALLY with the Rice thing earlier in the match. We have to take everything we can into account.

IBD what's your take on Back?
My take is I want this game to be over. Back doesn’t hit steam, and maybe there are some other reasonable clues I could be convinced of that would work better for back/whistle (football-related maybe, also call). I’m also being influenced by insanity’s spew when he updated the board.
eb makes a good point that the steam - 4 clue could’ve been purely to get us off of rice and clear a nasty neutral blocker off the board. In that case, he couldn’t have done a 3-clue (because of n-1), and he also couldn’t have don’t a 1-clue for the lone word because then he’d be tasked with closing things out with a 3-clue containing a blocker (i.e., one of fog/engine/laundry/whistle wouldn’t be ours and we’d have no real way of knowing which).
We really ****ed it up by not acknowledging that rice was clearly not ours.
But what just came up for me is that we still need at least one word for Eminem. And I’m not sure which of fog/engine/laundry could even stretch into it. Maybe engine for the Detroit connection, which is multi-step.
Back fits. Guess who’s back. Back again.

If you both agree go ahead and bold it.

yes, good job
was dying at the last sequence of neil asking for IBD's opinion, IBD explaining my logic perfectly, with song lyrics to back it up, and getting absolutely no reaction from neil in return 😆
i do think back kind of hits steam, but obv not as hard as the other 5 options. and i don't blame you guys for guessing rice since it hits so hard... just made things tricky that it was guessed first

apologies for the incorrect reveal everyone
Well done team!
Oh was that "Guess who's back" thing song lyrics? Yeah never catching that, heh.
Sup
Sorry team was an absolutely horrible board with elephant as a confirmer
Minotaur was doorman- it was the only clue I could think of that wouldnt be a 1 or 2 that wouldnt also hit elephant
oh man red actually just won there?
no fault on u dz blu
Oh we won? Neat. GG all.
eminem -> white -> rice was quite a big 2-step connection
great job on guessing who was back, back again
I've been to many chinese restaurants that literally sell "steam rice" so I was going to have a hard time not guessing rice anyway.
Can do it if you want, but going to be away starting Sunday and might not be checking this all that much.
It’s Thursday morning, so we can probably still play.
