What has the highest equity to be correct of those words?

I kind of like wave and Hollywood for Moses at the moment.
Canada / Day seems like a 55/45 for Canada to me.

Not really sure what's best here. I could get behind pretty much any of these words.

Are we always guessing?

Yeah, I'm stumped by Moses. Pass is an option, of course.

Canada

We can make educated guesses for Moses later. We have to solve this Thanksgiving problem.

That's an auto-pass, correct?

torch

I'm not really seeing much else I like either. Only loose connections.

Yeah, nothing else feels too Olympic-y. Czech is possible, I suppose. I'm also wondering if Torch is more confirmation for Fire.

Assuming no overlap, we still need 1 tree, 4 enclose and 2 paper.

For paper, I like comic > bond/buck.
For enclose, I like limo and pound best I think, but it really could be any number of things. The wording of that clue is throwing me off a bit, but maybe I'm just overthinking it.
For tree, maybe fire, but I dunno.

Surely there are better connections for that, but we don't know how many words he clued for there. If it's more than 2, then it's much more likely.

i dislike fire quite a bit

1) i think he'd just say flame to make sure we get both

2) it would be odd to have torch and fire on your board and not have them in the same clue (re: tree)

3) torch could be the final tree imo

comic seems best atm overall

i like buck over anything else for second paper, but i'd probably try a few enclose clues first

limo > square > pound >>>>>>>>>>>>>> well/pistol/bond would be my rough order for those

i think it's possible he didn't say "enclosed" because that might make us say space? really hard to say

Fire is def my least favourite of all the words mentioned, and agree that torch could be the final tree.

I think pistol could be another Olympic word. Czech and fan also possible.

I would rather start catching up on some missed clues first though. I think we all agree on comic and limo? Maybe we take them next...
