Bank card seems like a good bet.

Rose and card for Valentine's Day? Board and card for types of games?

Also, what do you think about mammoth for Smokey? Bears are big and mammoth doesn't go with a whole lot of other words, especially if Loch Ness isn't ours.

I prefer board over rose since the connection there seems more direct.

Idk, mammoth feels like a big stretch, but I never know, you might be right.

I don't think we should. Getting an 8th word isn't that much more useful than staying at 7.

And if I've misread the situation and it's blue, that would help them out a ton.

We can't win now, and they need 4. I think passing is the right play.

There is an iconic skydiving scene in Point Break. What do you think is their 5th Swayze word?

And I didn’t say I think it’s stronger than airdrop. I just don’t see another word that’s close for Swayze. Maybe Nich has been playing mind games this whole time.

I haven't seen that movie in 25 years, I forgot about that scene. I really don't watch a lot of movies, all I know about swayze is ghost, roadhouse and point break, without remembering much of any of them

I have never seen Point Break, and I immediately figured Parachute was theirs.

Lets start with switch and princess? If they're wrong, we're going nowhere anyway
