I didn't even see handlebar


Wheeeew high 5 donk

Neil tried to confuse us on the last turn but we made it!

Good clues tho, with the scientology it makes sense, alarm just threw a wrench in there too and made it even more confusing. With 3 words that were hit super hard it seemed right to fade the thing most easily missed so cool it worked out

GG all


Tried to confuse you? What should I have clued there? I couldn't n-1 when your list was Arm. I had to hit racket and brush. What else hits racket and brush? 😀


Arm wasy top next guess in a vacuum, but insanity made a good argument about fastball/curveball.

Hard luck and gg red


arm hits alarm so hard since they don't work if not armed; I never doubted it would be a top choice for you...tho it took ya'll about 10 posts to even mention it as an option, so obviously it didn't hit as hard for ya'll as for me

so earlier on I was trying to just get rid of other words and wanted to be sure you got both swing and pitch

beret had been missed on so I wanted simple 2 clues to get you to makeup cotton because I had no way to make it back up with my other clues, so I went with simple 2-clues until ending on alarm

I should have just clued alarm before the end so we had time for neutral blocker, but I didn't see any neutral blockers; racket was the only one I could possibly see as an option so that's what I was waiting for

It worked out, with table gone you perhaps could have gone "wooden - 2" or even just adding an s to make it "handles - 2" which would tip of us off bar isn't it ours since handlesbar doesn't make sense

I'm saying it kinda tongue in cheek - obviously you're not trying to confuse us but you can appreciate bar may be the word that's actually hit the hardest and it wasn't the easiest for us to figure out to skip over it


Rules regarding time of the game.

1. Max of 48 hours for spymasters to clue. If they don't then their turn is skipped.

2. Maximum of 48 hours for the guessing to happen. Provisional guesses can be made in green. Provisional guesses can be undone by a team by stating "undo Provisional guesses" or similar and can be replaced by new ones by bolding in green.

If time runs out for guessers then:

- Any Provisional guesses will become official guesses.

- If there are no Provisional guesses but a guess has already been made then the turn will be passed.

- If there are no Provisional guesses or guesses made whatsoever then the turn will end but the team's next turn will be a repeat of the previous clue.

Note, just because you have 48 hours, don't feel like you need to routinely take it. A game can still be very long and drawn out if the maximum time is taken each time.

...diamond? I think that's a cruise ship but not totally sure.

Only other thing I see is pan. London too, but then the clue is just queen I think.


Yeah Diamond Princess is a British cruise ship so xander would probably know it and expect me to know it

I'm good with Grace/King/Diamond


Lol, you aren't on this team or even in this game. You sent us the board!


Haha


Amazing


Hahaha oops


Hahahaha


LOL PC94.

Yeah Diamond Princess was a ship most famous (at least to me) for being the biggest COVID cruise in early 2020.
