The Chameleon September 13th game thread - Page 6

1) I find it really odd that list has both hip-hop and rap on it. I can't imagine what sort of clues could be given where the chameleon could distinguish between those two.

Yeah, that's awful.

Should change one of them to R&B imo.

I'll change it.

Has the file been re-scrambled? I think it mixes when opened, but I'm not sure what happens when it someone has it open and someone else starts looking at it.

Yeah, I'd ask Arctic before opening it.

When I modded, I made sure to re-scramble before exiting.

This whole list is pretty wack actually. No way it should have techo and house. If you wrote me a sentence-long clue intentionally pointing to one or the other, I'm not sure I would know. And Christmas?

Music
Rock
Heavy Metal
Classical
Funk
Hip Hop Change to R&B
Pop
Techno
Blues
Rap
Punk
Indie
Christmas Maybe grunge?
Country
House Change to jazz
Disco
Reggae

Jazz and R&B are solid additions.
Grunge/Rock/Punk/Heavy Metal might have too much overlap?

edit: Could go Blue Grass or Folk maybe?

Maybe too much overlap... its an improvement since the prior list contained two things that were very direct sub-sets of something else on the list.

What else is it missing?

I'm pretty sure I get Carl's. Or I'm just inventing things in my head.

I was interpreting the "no research" rule as applied to all aspects of the game.

I'd say Carl and eb are the two most likely atm. With carl being the most likely. Eb supporting him is a weird look if eb is the chameleon.

physical is one of the most general clues eb has thrown out to date, and that's saying something.

I feel like all villagers should get mine if they think about it a bit

No one throwing shade at irtm is weirding me out. Maybe I don't get it

Prip 2nd most general

Good with gad I think.
