I haven’t seen the list, but a bunch of computer-related words with key as the assassin is about as shitty a rand as they come.

Especially when I forget that keys are a thing related to computers

I'll post a list when I get to a computer

You know, Nich, I don't get your hard distinction between Macintosh and MacBook. MacBooks, like the Powerbooks before them, are portable Macintoshes.

If the words include battery, lap, etc then you would clue MacBook to indicate the laptop version

By going Macintosh, you are basically cluing “Macs but not the laptop versions and maybe only the old ones since Macintosh and not Mac”

One thing that helped me was when you start to consider a set of words, instead of just thinking about whether those 3 (any n) are the best 3 for a clue, also think hard on what might be a better clue for those 3, and you'll begin to notice little things like that. Nich has more knowledge on stuff like this, but I know that can help if you don't already do it.

I was going for board, button, lap, staff, tower, millionaire. I was willing to take a chance on battery and note, because I thought red had a pretty straightforward path to getting it in 3, and I figured I could clue away from them next time. I obviously missed Key.

I went with Macintosh over Mac to make it clear I meant the computer, and to point to Tower, since they don't do desktops as much and wanted to evoke the older machines. I didn't think it would also take them away from Lap.

If this is even, I'll be red on the re-run, which I'll rand momentarily

Does Apple Watch connect to the cloud? Has to, right? For tracking ****

why not iPad if tablet is ours though? It has files on it also, so seems like no reason to go iCloud over iPad if tablet is ours?


it could just be all Apple products but Apple is on the the board, so then Apple/File/Tablet/Watch

Banking is iPay, but seems worse; Buck because iCloud is like $1 for the cheapest plan, but that seems meh


I guess I'm ok with Apple/File/Watch/Tablet/pass paste/buck/bank

Ugh, that's a low number against a team that just got 4.

Bugle and Europe? I'm not sure I see anything else I like.
