was also thinking maybe "mast" if he went the aluminum rod route.

does a computer contain aluminum parts?

If we guess 2 and then guess at the third and miss we keep all the previous ones right? Like is there an instance we wouldn't guess all three assuming we get them right until the third?

seems the only down side is that you might hit the assassin word.

I can't think of any booths that would associate with aluminum.

Right now I'm somewhere around blacksmith > mast > opaque > computer

I'll leave the decision up to the rest of the team.

I can't ready think of any reason why he picked aluminium over another kind of metal, I guess mast is probably a good guess, or we can pass and potentially use Ma st as an extra guess in the future if it's close

a humidifier probably contains as much aluminium as a computer

a mast could be entirely made of wood

thoughts?

I didn't think it would be computer really so I'm going to defer.

Let's imagine that the words were blacksmith, computer and humidifier

what clue word would you give?

I don't think I'd give aluminium for either of those trios so maybe it's something entirely different for the 3rd word?

Also how bad is it in this game to guess and be wrong? (other than hitting the assassin square)

Guessing a neutral is relatively harmless.

Guessing one of our team's words is actually pretty harmful because you're doing hard work for us.

A pure guess is certainly -ev but some information can make it good. I'd suggest passing
