It's 11-11 going into R4 which is Nich v AE

PMs will be sent shortly


What was #2 on mine?


Register


I almost clued Jungle for fever and Fever for Jungle since this is technically 5 rounds in one pm to speed it up, so don’t think against rules but wasn’t sure if it’d be considered Kosher

Went dream and Mowgli instead

I did do that (Jungle for fever and Fever for jungle). Hope it was OK.

And good job Donk4 on getting plier. I clued singular because I've always heard them referred to in the plural form.

And finally, let's all be cognizant of capitalization in our entries, eh?


Seems fine.


Team B clues for AE:

1. beeping, Fire, clock, loud
2. Falcon, Wookiee
3. Marriott, Concierge, Hilton, Aria
4. build, Eggo, Denmark, toy
5. roots, Fescue, turf, fairway


Know the other 4 but thinking about 2 for a sec

It feels like this isn't millennium but can Chewbacca be a target word??


Team A clues for Nich:

1. cat, Ahi, Tartare, canned
2. legal, blitz, Offense, Gobert
3. Eyjafjallajokull, Kilimanjaro, Chocolate, Vesuvius
4. Ireland, stopper
5. one, Jackson, Donut, cavity


Alarm
Pass
Hotel
Lego
Grass

2 unsure on 2


Your instincts were correct; it was Chewbacca. Hairy was the duplicate.


ah dang...I thought it may not be in the word bank but this one really can be a lot of stuff!!

I kinda like that, makes it tricker and more fun


Also for the love of Christ, can people stop capitalizing words unless the capitalization means something?


#3 needs to stop capitalizing unless it means something

Tuna
Defense
Volcano
Cork
Hole


5/5 - great job, Nich! (And fellow cluers.)

I hope the dupe on 4 was soaker...

Oops sorry

Considering this gets said after every round, I doubt it.


The dupe on cork was screw

16-15 to Team A going into the last round which is myself v amplify

Someone on Team B will need to rand some words and PM DZ/nails/Donk/nich


Team B clues for amplify:

1. parallel, playoffs, Poker, Maclaurin
2. Hadron, extra, big, numbers
3. mexican, wrap
4. henna, Dragon
5. surname, 1940s, Winston, Downs


Processing...


I have 3 4 5 just not clicking on 1 and 2 yet still processing...


And I think 1 just came to me so now wtf are extra big numbers - a hadron is iirc a type of fundamental particle. Hadron and baryon? I might be making this up.


1. Series?
2.
3. Tortilla
4. Tattoo
5. Churchill


Wait Hadron is capitalized is that referring to the LHC?


1. Series
2. Large
3. Tortilla
