Saying if boom isn’t ours and it’s Phoenix for the bird then campfire seems fine bc that still hits beach and night

The reason for bonfire seems like to get large fire so more boomy, but I could be wrong

Maybe he thought campfire wouldn’t hit beach as hard, tho most fires on the beach are campfires not bonfires, but still

So just when it’s 50/50 my reasoning is campfire hits Phoenix just as well or better than bonfire but bonfire hits boom better than campfire so that’s why I lean boom, but I’m 60/40 so could go either way

Ooooooh, gotcha.

I’m fine with boom, largely because I think fair is a fireworks blocker.

My strategy this entire game was "Leave Beach on the board to make life difficult for Xander." I knew you'd likely hit Berry first, but I missed Engine and that slowed us down. Fortunately it worked out.

Oh and I didn't glue Fireworks because I was afraid it'd hit War a bit and Beach not enough.

Nice job

I’m never going war for fireworks tho; missiles, cannon etc are all war words and fireworks is only for Fourth of July reference to war, not normal wars

But fly hits fireworks

Also Fair was a very strong blocker on Fireworks *or* Bonfire.

Bleh

Not the best first clue and then had to spend the next clue on survival rather than progress.

Sorry team

Maybe it was an attempt to nab Scuba Diver?

yeah Phoenix from XMen being potential cosplay was another reason I inched Phoenix down further below Boom, but I didn't wanna plant that seed in their head so didn't say it...it was only character on the list and cosplay is literally dressing up as a character

Block

He chose carve not carving which is why I have block as backup as it’s a carving block not a carve block

so the theory is pumpkin + more general things that cut/are cut?

the theory is you carve a pumpkin, you carve a diamond, and you use a laser to carve

you carve things out of a block, but he coulda used carving for carving block if block was ours as it still hits pumpkin, diamond and laser, so that's why I have it fourth

I don't really see much else on the board related to carve; maybe carve a horn but that seems unlikely

It's nice to have 2 backups so we can do block/horn instead of just block

I've never heard of carving a diamond. Cutting yes, not carving. But I'll buy it as the intent.

intending 'cut' but switching to 'carve' to hit pumpkin harder.
