Shoulda trusted the spymaster, sorry erv. I wasn't accounting for eb having a stroke while cluing.


by insanity31

i don't understand why the other options are better, even with the blockers

i also don't understand the unlimited, but it worked out pretty well 😆

Because a grill/oven/stove uses gas to cook things?

Propane is used for cooking, yes. But also for heating and powering appliances.


None of that matters, because if our final two words aren’t gas/cook then eb has gone batshit.


You still have to bold it.


Lesson: always trust our spymaster over other spymaster

Also, don’t trust spymasters in Armenia

Gas

We bolded Gas.


I was talking about cook...


No list bro, gotta bold one at a time and get a reveal before moving forward

Ah missed their runaway

So cover club shot strike bottles

BOTTLES! WE GOOD

by Nicholasp27

They mentioned arm club space cover on runway turn and only club and cover are still unknown so it’s just those bc if you clue other team’s clue it’s gotta be for their mentions for that clue

we good

by Nicholasp27

It means club and cover are theirs

But then runaway from Ervin means they are ours

So they are both red and blue at the same time

Schroedinger’s words

we good

by Nicholasp27

One line of thought says trust our spymaster and don’t worry about theirs

They also clued Pluto unlimited when space was one of the unlimited words, so dunno what they were doing

Ervin shouldn’t have clued runway if it wasn’t those 2 words but eye shouldn’t have clued unlimited if they don’t have them so bleh

we......good....

by D1iabol1cal

No way ervin missed that runway was clued. There's also no way that eb would clue unlimited if club/cover were ours.

The only way I can make some sense of it is if play is ours, so that's what I'd bold next.

WAT


we were CRUISIN! blue's makeups were hot garbage(our words lol), I got a little sloppy with the jab clue - I was thinking of going for all 4 of club/strike/shot/cover and was thinking of boxing words, decided to go for 2 and came out with jab, just missed clueing something like missile but did not think any of it would matter as blue would have no chance

blue gave an unlimited clue which mystified me but whatever, not our problem. maybe eb was hoping to run into a neutral or who knows, seemed like a bunch could win and our 2 jab makeups were clear

only 2 unguessed words blue mentioned for runway were cover and club so seemed easy enough with the classic jab(pew pew) of clueing blue's own word

we start off smoothly with the makeups but then....out of nowhere....D1 a trusted codenames sleuth with whom i've enjoyed partnering on the way to cracking many cases....LOSES ALL FAITH IN ME and silver tongues our other beloved operative into one of the worst guesses of all time!

I still have no idea how we got to play, the clue wasn't Pluto, it was runway and there were 2 clear runway words they didn't guess!

gg lol that was a memorable rollercoaster


Yeah, sorry. But the reason play was guessed was because neil mentioned it last turn as a possible makeup for runway...it was never meant for Pluto. I honestly hated guessing it, but I just could not fathom that someone who has been playing codenames as long as eb has could ever steer his team into our last 2 words for absolutely no reason, and you have been known to take some weird lines in the past.

But yeah, it was still bad. Won't happen again!


i imagine it was a WTF in your spot, hilariously defeating from this side

in before eb reveals the unlimited clue was to play 4d chess and throw our team off from guessing our words


That must've been very tilting watching that from your end haha.

It's just unfortunate they didn't guess either of those words before ice, which would often be the case in those situations.


I can only assume eb confused the board due to being distracted while traveling.

Yeah I think that's what happened.
