LTAA - 5

I am not familiar with this acronym. AA is often Athletic Association.

One of those As could be for Australia, and Born knows/hopes D1 will get it??

If you guys know it, we need 7.

So if there is no overlap with Rapunzel, it could be 5 LTAA words and then Princess and Tower. Or if there is an overlap, 4 words and the Princess, Tower, and Novel... or 3 and also add Australia on that.

tower and princess were our next 2 and we can make those up

9+5+2 makeups = 16 so we can win this turn

I don't know what LTAA is

we only have 9 war words so far...even if tower is one, we need another...perhaps australia

i'm thinking ampere was to get rid of state also (negative/positive charge, solid state battery)


If D1 doesn't know what LTAA is I would start with tower/princess/australia as those 3 are good unless LTAA points away from australia

We are always picking Tower and Princess 1st so let's go with them just to make sure we are not drawing dead.

Tower
Princess

yeah; then we can wait for d1 to get up and tell us what LTAA is

if he doesn't know, then we'll have to make a guess because they'll win next round if we don't now

I don't know what LTAA is, but if one of those A's is for Australia, then it's an illegal clue.

10-27-2020 , 07:01 PM
Ok so we assume athletic or aeronautic or automobile association I guess
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 07:23 PM
I forgot about Australia being on the board, so yeah, it can't be in the acronym..

Borninabin probably in a real tough spot. You want to just guess novel and Australia and three other words.. I don't think we can get anywhere here with guessing what one of the A's might have been. He obviously could not use aviation or athletics or whatever the A word is to get us to get all 5

I don't know what we should guess, but if novel was ours, then we should've got an unlimited clue.
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 07:59 PM
i'm good with australia due to war and it's not removed from ampere while state/france/charge were

not good with novel since it was a 5 clue and not unlimited

gonna ponder some combinations of words to maybe guess what LTAA is

option 1:

lawn tennis athletic association:
racket
wind
yard
australia (open)
contract?


we have ALTA (atlanta lawn tennis association) here in Atlanta (about 80% as big as the national USTA; Atlanta is a HUGE tennis city)
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 08:02 PM
the reason he'd do that rather than just tennis - 5 would be to get yard i guess?
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 08:04 PM
option 2:

laser tag athletic association:
charge (but ampere)
shadow?
contract?
rock?

doesn't seem great

option 3:

lincoln towncar automobile association:
not seeing 5 feasible options
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 08:06 PM
Let' s do it

I would rather novel at the end than contract. It might hit war and rapunzel.

if lawn tennis is correct then novel doesn't hit it and he gave a 5 clue which is top 2 on list only...he could have been scared that unlimited would get us to go down further on the list, but novel doesn't hit lawn tennis

of course, most likely tennis isn't even correct
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 08:11 PM
Yeah whatever. I don't think it is disrespecting Born to pick 5 and end it. He was shooting for something and we don't know what. So, random (not selecting charge and france, obv) is about all we can expect to do.

If I thought pondering this would help, I would go at it, but what can we do? We don't know what LTAA is.
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 08:14 PM
well if we don't think of a better acronym then we can guess racket and if it's correct then wind yard australia should be also so it comes down to the last word to make a decision on


i'm fine to bold those first 4 anytime
Codenames 4v4 LONG LIST Quote
10-27-2020 , 08:17 PM
Back - play back at the baseline; weak
Bond - a baseball player; no good
Car - no
Contract - possible; default if nothing else works, but not great
Dinosaur - no
Dragon - no
Dwarf - no
India - a lot of tennis players; possibility
Mouse - no
Novel - i don't see the connection to lawn tennis
Organ - no
Piano - no
Pound - pound the ball? very weak
Racket - ldo if it's tennis
Rock - don't call the ball a 'rock' in tennis like in basketball so no
Scuba diver - no
Shadow - harder to play with shadows, but no
Spider - nah
Wind - sure
Yard - reason for lawn tennis


so I have it between contract and India for final word, assuming the other 4 are even correct
