I'm specifically referring to the fact that movies traditionally are shown ON planes, these days on a screen right in front of your seat, but traditionally they'd have a whole projector set up.

If plane isn't ours I will be shocked.

I know what you’re referring to, and I’m saying that is not a direct connection to a clue of Goonies.

The clue isn’t movie. It’s Goonies. Yes, you can watch movies on a plane and Goonies is a movie. But that’s not direct enough imo. If Skittles were the clue, I wouldn’t be snap guessing plane because I can eat candy on a plane.


Yeah but I'm fairly sure Nich expects us to see that it IS a movie. If the clue were Pasteur, we might be expected to get science words, not just specifically Pasteur's research.

There's no way there are five words on this board without that read.

That’s nothing like what we’re talking about. Science words relate to Pasteur because he’s a scientist. Plane relates to Goonies because it’s a movie and some airplanes show movies? Again, the clue isn’t movie. It’s Goonies. The connection you’re making is multi-step. If the word was movie, then it’d be an easier sell.

I am done with discussing plane for a while. I’ve shared my thoughts and you’ve shared yours.

We both appear to agree on spy, unless you’ve changed your mind. Go ahead and bold that if you still like it. I would also like to revisit fall at some point, since I identified it as top three and you indicated earlier that you liked it (for a different reason).


Spy


The problem with 3v3 is there's nobody to break deadlocks πŸ˜€


Plane
Fall
Cross

Gotta leave backups


Neutral


Dang


Disney - 5
Goonies - 5

Atlantis

Spike
Wall
Whip

Screen
Pan
Duck


Bell
Gold
Temple


Spy


church - unlimited


Cross obvious answer for church. Cat & Atlantis are the next two Disney words on the list that would get us to % there. Could also go with Wall for church, or Plate for collection plate. If it was *just* cross, church is not the obvious clue

Cross
Cat
Atlantis

Plate
Wall


I think Plate is pretty strong for church and wall is good for the next word.

I've got a funny feeling that fly will be correct for Disney and one of Atlantis or cat will be wrong.

This smacks of an early unlimited clue to help us clear through the backup list which is only partly correct.

For me:

Cross
Cat
Atlantis (fly as backup if one of atlantis or cat is wrong).
Plate
Wall
Pass

I know I'm being greedy with wall, but I can't imagine a clue of church if wall is blue or purple. We likely won't get there either.


Yeah, I think I agree with all of this.

Cross
Cat
Atlantis
Plate
Wall
Pass

Fly


Cave - 4


Cave *capitalized*

I don't know what this is referencing. Just for the *word* I'd get:

Scuba diver
Wall
Fall?
Spike for stalagmites and stalactites?

I'm sorry Nich I'm missing all your references this board.


bump


I’m assuming there’s also a movie out there with the word cave in the title, but Nich wouldn’t need to reclue a film.

Any Nick Cave song references on the board? I can’t think of any other proper Caves off the top of my head.


Unless I’m ****ing things up again, I also think the 4-clue here denies both plane and fall (plane would’ve been n-1, fall would’ve been unlimited).


I like scuba diver and wall. Spike isn’t bad for the reason you said. Maybe there’s a character named Spike in Goonies? I know Sloth, but that’s about it.

At least we wont have to debate plane again this game haha


We need two or three Goonies words that overlap with Cave.

Buffalo - no, The Goonies is set in Oregon; is Nick Cave from Buffalo?
Czech - no, the villains are Italian; is Nich Cave of Czech descent?
Fall - no, denied by 4-clue
Fly - no
Helicopter - no
Loch ness - myth/adventure connection?
Maple - no
Microscope - no
Plane - no, denied by 4-clue
Scuba diver - yes, cave diving
Skyscraper - no
Spike - maybe, stalactites and stalagmites
Wall - yes, caves have walls
Whip - adventure/Indiana Jones connection?


Oh the idea of a character named spike makes a LOT of sense. Sheesh.


I take it Nick Cave is a musician?

I thought you typoed Nick Cage at first.

Haha, that’s Nic!

And yeah, Nick Cave is a singer/songwriter. And I’ve just exhausted everything I know about Nick Cave.


Wanna go scuba diver/wall/spike and see if we’re still alive? If so, bold away
