Hmm, I just realized Zurvan didn’t capitalize sparkle. But he capitalized Cruiser. And now I’m torn. But I legit can’t think of anything better than Unicorn.

yeah, i can't think of any good words for sparkle. i think i'd go

wave
unicorn/telescope

Sparkle is a two clue. Which means we can guess three words.

what if there are 2 sparkle words... say diamond and unicorn

and 4 crusier words.. bow, sink, wave... and one other that isn't hood... maybe boom

what would he put after diamond then? he'd put a 2, right?

let's get some cruiser words!

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Guess what you want, I’m fine with all the words you just listed. Just as long as you realize we can only guess two more before our turn is over.

if someone puts a 2, that means our turn auto ends? we can't just guess forever?

Yes. You are allowed to guess n+1. The most we can get this turn are three words.

The only times you can guess forever is if you get an unlimited clue or a 0 clue.

i think i feel better about

sink
wave

than i do about any sparkle word. and those could both be sparkle words too.

you should bold them if you can't think of any better words. if you like a different word better, im totally fine with that. even if you bold unicorn first.

Alien
Amazon
Laser
Loch Ness

Probably 2 of those.

The Green Wave is the mascot of Tulane University, but I doubt Egix is going for a college sports clue after last round's disaster.

Alien for sure

I had laser next but maybe alien+laser is ufo or dissection or probe or something? Maybe not

Loch Ness is good also; maybe there is a fantasy connection there instead, but then blue left the unicorn blocker on the board

Amazon is a lush rainforest so that’s pretty good also; could maybe have gone for the alien as jn foreigner route but maybe not, or dvd to get both movie and Amazon

I don’t even know that Nessie would be green so I think that’s the weakest of the four

Lasers are usually red or blue so while often green, not first thing that comes to mind

So alien+Amazon are my 2 faves with laser then Nessie as backup I think

Yes, the same reason it was on our initial bolded list.

Funerals also have China, dates, faces, logs, rows, and waves. Probably some even have lasers and unicorns.

Boom - Cruiser (warship weaponry)
Chair - Cruiser/funeral
China - nah
Date - nah
Face - nah
Hood - Cruiser (PT Cruiser)
Hospital - funeral (dead people)
Laser - Cruiser (warship weaponry)/sparkle (laser are shiny/sparkly maybe)
Loch ness - nah
Log - Cruiser (captain’s log)
Row - Cruiser (boat connection)/funeral (people sit in rows)
Telescope - nah
Undertaker - funeral (obv)
Unicorn - sparkle (Twilight Sparkle!)
Wave - Cruiser (ships are on the water)

The only one I’m 100% sure of here is Undertaker, if I’m being honest.
