Can't really say I like Atlantis a whole lot. Honestly would just rather say the 4 structures. Even if one of them is wrong, it at least shouldn't be purple.

I could see Atlantis being purple here. Birds and Structure don't hit it at all.

I like these. The only other three words either of us mentioned were opera, train, and battery. We only have two left to get for length, and if the five above are all correct then we can assume length is done.

Not sure about firing off randoms like Atlantis.

yeah i don't really like atlantis either. i just had a vague memory of some club in atlantis or called atlantis. idk. probably totally wrong lol

but we are gonna guess those 5 first.. and then probably opera too?

but at least guess those 5 and see if we still even have anything to discuss?

bold the 5 if you agree

Life makes me a little nervous because it’s next on their list and hits birds reasonably well. I’d be okay with passing here if these are good.

We’ve only really been clued for 5-6 words, so there’s at least one unknown out there somewhere. If we’re not winning this turn, I don’t see why we should keep guessing and potentially help them out.

he clued unlimited

that means we should go for it, right?

i agree that we are gonna have to make some fairly wild guesses, but if zurvan thinks we should go for it, then we should

No, unlimited clues do not mean “guess random words.” It means we were on the right track with some of the words we were kicking around for length, and clueing unlimited allows us to guess words for club and also keep guessing for length. If he’d only clued club - 2, then we could guess three words at most. As it stands, we can guess as many as we want. But, again:

Going for it on our second turn without all of our words being clued is not a great move imo.

Good question! And it helps when you're spymaster. Of course, I could be talking out of my ass.

Angel/Battery/Wake would seem like must-guesses for dead.

But I really don't get this structure clue.

Those 3 are locks

And battery could be a structure word

Not sure on final word; atlantis is a dead city and has structures but not sold on it yet; gonna review the list again

Angel - yes, dead; could also be bird word
Atlantis - could be dead and could be structure but not strong
Battery - yes, dead; could be structure also
Button - not seeing dead here other than suits at funeral; nah
Force - nah
King - many are dead, but nah
Life - no, woulda been 3 clue
Opera - not really
Slug - they can die, but have no structure
Spring - could be structure and could be bird but not great for dead; I guess if springs lose their tension they could be considered dead?
Train - not really
Wake - yes, funeral
Washer - a washer (or any appliance) can die; weak connection to structure

Must guess:
Angel
Battery
Wake

Options:
Atlantis
Spring
Washer
