Could we have a board in Match Thread A please?

Thanks


Nich and Zurvan

Also, can someone please send a board to insanity and me?


Board incoming


Thank you!


honor - 6[/b]


Heading out right now, but at first glance Code/Knight/Fair seem like locks.


Yeah Code/Knight/Fair for sure

Then it gets murkier, honor killings are a thing or 'honor the dead' so death

You can pay or 'honor' a bill

Cricket is a well known sport for good sportmanship/honor

Figure for the judge 'your honor' connection maybe


Code
Knight
Fair
Death
Figure
Cricket

Bill

How does that sound?


I'd go Bill over Figure

I'd go Bill over Figure

So Bill/Figure/Cricket or Cricket/Bill/Figure?

Okay with either, just bold which you like.

Cook
Racket

Plate?


Oh no, cricket.


For the vegetable - cook, plate, root
For the sport - cricket, racket, strike, string

Racket and cook are must guesses. No idea on the rest, but I like cricket the least of them.


I agree on Racket/Cook. Too easy.

But cricket is a game like squash is.


They are both sports, but they are nothing alike...it's not like going from squash to tennis or something.


They're alike in the sense they are in the same category. Category is one of the fundamental ways to clue in this game.

There's nothing we've listed that's as good a guess as cricket here.


So if the clue is car, you would guess plane ahead stuff like wheel?


Not ahead of wheel.

But ahead of line, because you use lines to make parking spaces. That's the parallel with say, string or plate.

Cook
Racket
Cricket
Root


Wat

Line for car is nothing like plate or string for squash. It's more like table for squash because you put a plate on the table.


So what exactly are your four, and in what order?
