Maybe we're supposed to pick up another Trafalgar word we mentioned like model or rose?
But then he should just do a 0 clue. I have nfi what's going on here.
Actually what am I talking about. I've just confused myself. He can't clue 3 for coin with bridge next on list if that's not ours. Yeah, I'm back to what I said originally lol.
That is literally how every person in the game plays it, except for you.Unlimited means either [clue] + 2 or more words, or [clue] + skip top word and guess 2nd on list. Since he is recluing the 3rd word on the list, it can't be the first one or else we just get a 1 clue.You've also gotta stop with this adding equity thing. When you use a system properly, you don't ever have
I have never seen anyone here use unlimited in that way in my time playing here. I've seen nich talk about it, but no one has ever seen it, because it doesn't make any sense.
This is a dynamic game where random things happen and things change between turns, having a "system" with hard and fast rules for a game that does not suit them is not the way to play imo. Things happen, different games and clues should be interpreted differently.
If you really think he's trying to skip bridge idk, again I've never seen anyone do that, it seems confusing to me, id rather believe a concert skip or a circle skip tho seems difficult to avoid circle with this clue
Something else I could also believe is none of this list crap, he just wants a couple words for coin and a couple for Trafalgar
so we could come to the same conclusion with that interpretation or maybe go back for a different word
All of this said, I don't think I'm getting off Pound, and if this isn't circle I'm not going to understand either so good bolding those 2 if you are

You are just wrong. Whether you agree with the logic or not, that is what people do.
Yes, you can bold those words as I told you before.
Pound
Circle
Pound
Circle
I feel very confident we should guess concert. If it's wrong, it's not on us.
I wanna get to my computer and think a little more
I'm not sold that concert is ours and bridge is wrong. I could get there, but I'm not there at the moment
Also not sold that it can't be all 3, wanna check like yea maybe red could just gone Trafalgar - 3 then but maybe was another motive
Feels like pound/post/London could have been guessed with another clue, circle not that special either but maybe the reason for the Trafalgar
Feels like there should be some super reason like Rose or whatever for this semishadowfax
It doesn't seem like all 3 are right tho
What do you think of Bill? Looking back the other words don't really get circle
So I could see this being for something like Pound/Circle/Bill, and he thought if it was a 3 clue we'd guess Bridge because of that terrible tradition so he went unlimited
You'll never be able to talk me out of skipping bridge and guessing concert. Even if it's wrong, it's still the correct guess.
Either we trust the spymaster or we don't. That's all there is to it.
I don't get how this is trust spymaster or not. I'm trying to figure out what spymaster is doing. You're convinced they're doing X and there is seemingly no changing your mind.
It's a little difficult sometimes to play when I'm on defense the entire time, "you are just wrong" "anything else is stupid" "we trust spymaster or we go your route and don't"
we can just guess the words you want if you feel I have nothing to add but this feels a little frustrating
i'm not interesting in guessing concert right now. let's say it's correct and bridge is wrong.
what do you think the last word is?
like last turn I suggested Pound and Circle early which got VETO'd HARD and OK, and they were ours and we're here
fighting against VETOs and my opinion just being the order of the words you want gets difficult for me
please acknowledge there is imperfect information, there is plenty of room for confusion, there is room for mistakes(like IMO our guesses last turn which I would have picked different words for)
I can potentially get behind Bridge not being ours. I would like to talk through it. I would like to discuss word #4 before we guess the last 2
pretty safe time to talk about it
what do you think their last word is? I'm actually thinking it could be Rose lol and kinda off it for us
each time I look through the words I pause at Nut...idk why...doesn't really connect with coin? and then I look at Net and nah
Havent done the thingy in a while I wanna do the thing
Bill - makes sense, coin is currency, a bill is currency
Bridge - from before, obviously a candidate in that I haven't let it go
Concert - another clear candidate, you like it a lot and I'm not discounting it
Model - eeeeh we haven't been here at all...some connection to a coin and we haven't talked about this word, a possibility i guess so can't discount
Net - this i'd discount
Nut - idk why I keep pausing here...like some kind of famous coin? feels ridiculous tho so eh
Rose - thinking it's theirs? we did talk about it but they still need heart words i think
Satellite - not in the wavelength of any clue so nah
Van - not in the wavelength of any clue so nah
I said you were wrong about people not using unlimited clue for 2nd on list because you are. It doesn't come up a great deal, but that is what they do in that situation. I have seen it used several times and zurvan has been in those games, and probably done it himself. Even just last turn reds guessed 2nd on list for that very reason.
And I didn't veto circle, I said I didn't feel comfortable guessing it that turn because it was a tenuous connection and we had safer options. I vetoed pound because it was next on their list and I genuinely thought it was a heart word, and parachute/rose because they were just random words that didn't fit our clues at all. I didn't just disregard your opinion either...you essentially picked the word order we ended up with.
I know you're frustrated with me, but you yourself are extremely stubborn on things that are just like gut feelings or whatever all the time too which can be pretty annoying, and I know this is the right guess in this situation regardless of the result.
For bridge to be correct, he would have to be doing 3+1 as unlimited (which would be the first time somebody other than you has done that), or the next 3 words are all ours and he randomly decided to "add equity" to last word on the list (which also would be the first time anyone but you has done that).
What do you think the other word is?
Bill or something else?
Me and D1 when I'm clueing
Spoiler
Me and D1 when we're guessing together
Spoiler
anyway if you like Bill as the other word, I could get behind Concert because then Zurv couldn't do coin - 3 since most people would guess Bridge in that scenario, so that would make some sense to me. Or another word entirely that's not Bridge or Concert
