cleaner - 2
should be in these 4:
Lemon
Sink
Skyscraper
Stick?
sink was next on our list, so we have to throw that out, especially with nich cluing
i'm seeing lots of blockers for the remaining three combos and i feel like i'm not choosing correctly very often lately!
stick/skyscraper seems unlikely to be this clue (wouldn't it just be long?)
lemon/stick would be tree, but bark is obv a massive blocker. febreeze would probably work
lemon/skyscraper is rough. Apple would work if the company didn't exist, which brings stick into play
so i guess i'm leaning lemon/skyscraper. stick isn't the greatest fit anyway
maybe another word is possible? but i see nothing
I'm ok with lemon/skyscraper, i don't see much else
lemon
skyscraper
Perfect guessing
And great job with terminator sinking to unblock that blocker
whew, i was still worried since the final word has been hard for me lately!
great clues
I was debating things like janitor or custodian to ensure you got skyscraper but then lemon isnβt quite as good a hit on janitor as on cleaner
But cleaner isnβt as good for skyscraper unless you think of cleaner as a person like a janitor
gg all, what was our last 2 words?
Yβall were close
Hawk as 2nd on list was unlimited and Bermuda, another geographical place, was last one for Indy
Tough bc no way to know if Bermuda is yours for that 3rd Indy connection or if itβs top 2 of list

i was thinking of window washer π
it definitely helped that no other options made sense
Yeah window washer was one I hoped youβd think of for cleaner
And nothing else making sense was key, but most importantly you unblocked sink
You could work through combos
Lemon+sink = Dawn or other kitchen stuff
Sink+skyscraper = plumbing etc
But still woulda been tough to not go sink if you hadnβt been on it for terminator
I was swinging for the fences. Bermuda -> Berumda Triangle -> Indy supernatural stuff. Desperation.
I did not think it was a sure thing to get lemon/skyscraper, but it was possible. Well done.

Well
Could we get a board randed for Match Thread B please
48 hour clock still on by the way.
About 12 hours left for a clue or it's blue's turn.
i think we can not enforce that rule at this point of the game. completely breaks it
i mean our thread hasn't even been randed a board yet. sad state of affairs all around
should just let AI play at this point
