Regular Run of the Mill NO LIST Codenames!
Post if you want in, ideally 8 people but the normal game - guess your stuff and ideally go fast bolding away a guess at
So I guess my feelings are, I vote balloon. If you both like quack better, then we should definitely guess that instead of passing.
I’ve never liked quack, so we’ll need to have more conversation. Because “no list” or not, the standard for the four years this variant has been a thing is that the last word mentioned by the team is guessed when the clue is n-1.
I'm not sure I'm a fan of the logic of "last mentioned" in a no list game.
It's possible he wants balloon because 2/3 liked it instead of quack which only 1/3 did.
Are you talking about Neil and me liking balloon vs Neil alone liking quack? Because you didn’t like either enough to bold and I don’t know how tf insanity is supposed to communicate to us what you’re suggesting.
Do we think they're going to run the board next round?
I think the logic for passing this round holds as much as it did last round.
But if y'all really want balloon bold it. Unless it's assassin it doesn't really matter.
Bump
So what do we do here?
Quack is guaranteed not dark orchid, but I have a hard time believing it’s blue. I just can’t imagine it being a coyote word. Balloon is a riskier bold, but at least fits with the alternate coyote definition.
But again, insanity’s expectation very likely would’ve been for us to bold quack, knowing we’re pretty much guaranteed a third turn.

I have half a mind to code a codenames web app that would automate some of this.
Automate DZ clueing?
Automate reminders of who's up to do what, along with randing and board updates.
Basically do for Codenames what Mafiascum did for Werewolf.

Seem solid. March fits pretty well, but it was next on our list so it should never be that. I have to stretch pretty hard to find anything else.
