not saying it =)

think we have really strong reasons not to that outweigh the connection(which isn't even a slam, London Revolution is weaker than other ways of saying it)

NFL team Minnesota Vikings could have played in London perhaps. Wimbledon happens there too.

Does sugar bubble in any ways/is something like sugarpop a thing?

I mean, I was the biggest anti-revolution advocate from the beginning, and if there was any other connection that made sense I'd be all for it...but here we are.

I just think they're very likely going to have to guess it anyway and game context wise it really doesn't look like it's ours - I said it initially but I don't know if it even hits London that hard, starting to like Sugar a lot for potential trade route

I would rather pass than guess sugar tbh. That IS still an option btw.

Unless we were supposed to go bubble - bubble gum - sugar? I guess it's possible.

Upon further look, a LOT of things actually have something to do with an explosion, a lot doesn't relate to London

London shops are sort of a thing but is that how you'd clue something like Pants/Sugar/Bond?

Can we just guess viking at least? No way you're talking me out of guessing both of them, and that seems to be the only word we have at least some consensus on.

I like revolution and viking, so I am more than fine guessing Viking.

I'll say straight up I'm off Viking too. I think they are missing a jerk word and we also didn't get clued something like English.

IIRC Sweeney Todd had some best pies in London type thing so that's another point for sugar to me

My preference would be to fire off Sugar and discuss last word, fine w/ whatever list for the time if you're both down to guess it

Ervin, we are saying at least one of revolution/viking, so pick one.

These connections you are now making are a bit off the rails imo.

meh... we are being respectful and trying to find solutions that all 3 of us can live with but that does not seem possible.

We have all been in spots where two people like one thing and a third person does not, but when pressed we have gone with the majority.

We are already past deadline.

We have two people ready to vote Viking after two days or hashing it out I think we should do it.

AE, we have all been the lone dissenter on certain picks, and often the dissenter is the only one right. But what other way do we have to pick at this point but going majority? It is no slight on you or your favourites.. We are a team.

Honestly, if we are this far apart, passing is really not a terrible option.

I'd rather Viking than Revolution. I'd go Sugar first but if I'm outvoted so be it. We've done majority a few times but not sure why you both want to guess those even though neither of you like it
