Sorry guys, but I'll explain my thoughts process.

I went Princess above Queen because I didn't think Queen hit Grace. I know Princess Grace but not Queen Grace. Who is Queen Grace? Princess Grace is why it was capitalised. Also Jack Queen King was a thing. I knew diamonds was a possibility, but I decided to risk it rather than go for a 2 clue.

time was for Facetime. I never had an iPhone so didn't realise the T was capitalised in it until after you started discussing it. My bad.

I never in a million years thought that Pan would be on your radar but it was.

On turn 3 I was in a tough spot. Blue had a 2 clue which was not a slam dunk but let's be honest 2 clues to end are usually successful.

I had 3 unclued words, the assassin as top of your backup list and a 4th word that was 2nd on your backup list. I couldn't link the 3 words as hard as I tried (I'm sure someone would come up with something great here). Even if I did, you're going for expansion as your 4th and we lose.

I could go for Peter - 0 or something but we just get London and I'm praying I get another turn and then I likely still can't think of a link for Mouse, Ninja and Tie and we lose the next turn instead (if we even got that far). My intention was that you go Ninja, Mouse, London, Cotton and we get the unlikely next turn to finish the game off. I knew Pan was still a strong possibility but I thought this was our strongest chance to win.

Well played Blue.

Queen Grace is nothing, but when you think of royalty, you think of grace. Plus "your grace" is a thing. What else are we supposed to guess?

Weird game!

I do feel a lot better knowing cotton wasn't ours tho.

King
Jack
Diamonds

All playing cards

I mean yeah, but also nah. King was ours, jack was neutral, and we guessed diamond anyway!

I've said before that when you clue and nobody gets it then it wasn't as obvious as you thought, but I still prefer Princess as the clue, but whatever. We were all trying to win.

Welp, at least we were wrong with cotton too.

GG all.

That was a tough board. gg blue

Good clueing, Zurvan. Sorry the building connection to skyscraper didn't come up with the morgue clue. Tough one, reds.

Well chair is the lock of the century.

Trains have seats. So does the tube.

Beach chairs exist.

There are other options, but I think those are my four favorites.
