Yeah, ggYou guys got the stay connection to court, but not to file, which I had to figure out how to make up for. I had no idea how to credibly connect octopus and file, which insanity knew full well with his middle finger of a 1-clue on turn three. It didn’t help that any water-related clue to connect octopus with anything earlier else would’ve hit fish and whale. I thought ab
lol'd. this would have been my last game if they guessed whale over fish. gg
and yeah you couldn't go with ink and i didn't see much else either. i was thinking the same as you with "eight" or maybe "8"... anything would have been a prayer but i think you gotta go for it
good job team
hard to remember exactly what happened here, but the ireland clue was kind of a yolo. wasn't sure how hard any of flute/fish/robin hit. nice job staying away from beijing/alps 👍
Gg red
Is 8-bit a valid clue? I forget how hyphens work
No hyphens allowed in codenames.

Yeah, I definitely should’ve done a 2-clue to try to close it out, even though it was low probability. Oh well.
could have tried octuplicate
hopefully they've heard of filing things in triplicate and can deduce from there
tho this is iffy since both start with oct; technically can't use part of compound word, but octopus nor octuplicate are compound words; they just share a prefix; not sure if we have a pog rule on that but it's not against the official codenames rules I don't think, but it's pretty iffy
I would not think that clue would be allowed
Definitely illegal imo, and I don't even think it's close.
Nah, remember the Triforce/triangle discussion from a while back? It was ruled no bueno moving forward, which would definitely apply here as well.

LOL OCTUPLICATE
Wooo great clues insanity, never a doubt!!
GG all
Oh yeah, triforce/triangle

From a quick glance:
Apple
Calf
Horse
Must be capitalised for a reason, will come back tomorrow
Novel for Animal Farm?
Just based on the word I get as possibles:
Apple
Calf
Cotton
Horse
But Apples aren't entirely farmed. And Farm is capitalized so...
Novel
Calf
Horse
Cotton
