No point in l4/l7 anymore so I’m good with your p word

They’ll get it this turn anyway

pulled

it's trombone

D'oh 😊

trombone

ya'll were right there; even figured out long/longest

we gave horn instrument so we woulda added large or fat or both to qualify which horn instrument; instead we gave long/longest as qualifier

tuba is largest and tallest, but trombone is longest; it's 9-11 feet long

bold of you to assume either is the largest or longest

i just googled and discovered the EARTH HARP, there's a bigass organ too

outta the common instruments yea tho...trombone does seem like the longest i think....maybe like a contrabass clarinet or subcontrabass sax but that sorta starts to fall into the niche instrument category

earth harp is not a horn instrument, but stringed instrument
likewise, clarinet and saxophones are woodwind, not horn/brass instruments

we clued horn instrument so brass instruments, so then long/longest is a qualifier on that and I thought would lead to trombone over tuba (fat/large would have been for that)

also, contrabass clarinet is half the length of trombone and subcontrabass saxophone is tall, not long; it's 9-10 feet tall while trombone is 9-11 feet long

if you place it flat on the floor it will go from tall to long

horn can be used as slang to refer to any wind instrument as well, and many brass bands rock saxophones even though technically a woodwind

Round 17:

Cards used: 22
Guessers: pog/insanity

The Board:

P | EF | C | IH

The target word:
sent to d1iabol1cal, bolt2112, amazingervin, ibedrummin and doctor zeus

NOTE: THESE ARE THE LAST 4 CARDS IN THE GAME

p6 or opposite p6, which one?

I think opposite p6 is better, but not 100% sure

i7 (or i6) is also a banger if want to keep p card instead of IH card for next turn

For what it's worth, this was an x-post. First thing that came to mind with the cards we have.

yeah, unlike long last round, p6 is the first thing that will come to everyone's mind

There has never been a better clue option in this game than opposite p6.

as long as we don't want to save the p card then we can fire away

if we wanted to save the p card, then i7 is probably the 6th best clue option we've ever had in the game so not too shabby either

I tend to think having 2 letters is better than 1, so I'm good with using p card and moving on

Bad news

oh no!

I messed up updating the board

Here is the actual board:

The Board:

EF | C | IH | DL

I guess I'll rerand a new word as we've already given lots of info about a letter that's not allowed

sorry guys

Round 17 - Redux:

Cards used: 22
Guessers: pog/insanity

The Board:

EF | C | IH | DL

The target word:
sent to d1iabol1cal, bolt2112, amazingervin, ibedrummin and doctor zeus

NOTE: THESE ARE THE LAST 4 CARDS IN THE GAME

f7 from f6 is good confirmer
c4 also
L7 and L5 are two other good ones; L5 could be the clue

actually instead of f7, f10 from f6 is even better
d7 another confirmer

f10 or L5 are the two I like best so far, probably F10

do we care about using EF vs DL card?

F10 for sure. It only hits 1 word.

Always f10
