Yeah that's why I deleted, at first I was asking in case it wasn't correct before realising Gad had already said it was, so I could just update the board when I came to guess.

Sorry for confusion

oh yeah, that's why you don't go in reverse

oops

jump - 2

Hmm. Can't say I was expecting that. I tried to go novel last turn & so I should always get a 1 clue if that was right.

Parachute is the only word that stands out so far.

Bat - I don't really see it. I think bat + parachute is float?

England - I don't see it.

Germany - Don't see it.

Lap - I don't see a jump connection, but could this be the 3rd Chariots word? People go around the track & do laps in chariot races? Idk. Would have to find a jump connection before I guess this, though.

Novel - Should never be, so don't need to try to make some reading connections.

Parachute - Hopefully

Pilot - Pilot + Parachute should be something airplane related I would think, although I think a jump pilot is a thing.

Poison - Unless the band Poison has a song called jump I don't see it, but not capped anyway.

Police - I mean police can jump people, but idk?

Trip - I think trip + parachute is "fall", right?

Idk.

I guess I'll guess Parachute & keep thinking because if that's wrong I have no shot.

I also might need a telecommunications word after Satellite/Link/Cross.

Red

Lap + Parachute = what?

You can jump in someone's lap...

Laptop for telecommunications?

Idk. Will think about it a bit more.

Meh

lap

Lap is red

Wish I'd noticed satellite or I'd have said wings or flight probably.

Thought you were a brit (did I make this mistake a different time)?

Yeah I am a Brit. Ah so airways was to avoid satelite and get me to England for BA?

Should’ve thought that through a bit more actually, sorry. It started so well and then I fell apart.

Were ours: England, Pilot, Trip and Bat?

Yeah

Cross was probably better for excavation and airways, but you already had bat on the list and I thought you may think cross was chariots clue.

G'work Gad, gg all.

I just looked up Chariots of Fire & it's not about chariot racing at all... but it is a British historical drama, so probably best I didn't know about it lol.

It has one of the more iconic scenes plus music in it with them running on the beach.

Definitely familiar with that song, & knew what it was going to be before it started, but mostly from the other 50 things it's been featured in. Don't recall seeing this video.

Yeah I only know that scene more or less and vaguely the plot. I didn't understand why the hell you guessed jupiter until about five minutes ago.

Great job, JMurder!

pwns and I had a lot of blockers for each other this game; tough to navigate

And novel was the assassin

Chariots of Fire is about runners afaik, so I was hoping to pick up lap there (or with general connection to chariots)

And then yeah, needed a 2 clue to get you away from novel, so chose jump bc of jumping in a lap, maybe some track and field connection with hurdlers

good guessing all the way

Turns out the movie was based on a novel lol.

I was pretty off. Played bad, got there. Will take it.

Yeah, I realized the chariot movie I was thinking about was Ben Hur with Charlton Heston, but still assumed it was another chariot racing movie.

I almost clued Ben-Hur, but apparently that's from an even more famous novel

Even more famous in that it didn't occur to me to check if Chariots of Fire started out as a novel
