When you use Firefox, you can directly copy-paste lists and the colors carry over. Also, you can do things like bolding and colors and they show up in real time (like as you are composing the post) as if you were using a word processing program.

It looks like I changed the colors from red to blue. Firefox and Chrome parse it correctly, but Tapatalk and maybe other browsers can't.

Sorry if it has been an issue. Never noticed before. I'll endeavor to avoid it in the future.
Yeah, it's just tapatalk that is affected afaik. Not a huge issue, but I was more just curious as to why it was happening to your lists and not others. I use firefox and didn't even know about that feature, so thanks for that.

Gonna be afk for maybe an hour in case anyone guesses in that time window.

all red, gg.

I had my doubts that the covert clue would work. Did you realize you had said the wrong word (I think) for one of the clues? Otherwise, there should have been more possibilities.

Recap incoming.

Gah.

I thought for sure they were overlooking Cap (blasting cap/detonator).

gg, guys.

Mananger - 5 was a great clue and put me in a tough spot.

You guys got there eventually with camping 5. Knew you'd likely throw Sherwood in there at some point, but I had to live with it.

Dired was powder, peach, and drop. Drop as in a drop of liquid. I was hoping you'd at least ponder a drop as something to be dried or just the general liquid connection. Thought you might say pumpkin, though.

I think with "covert-0" Killer was telling them to guess what they were thinking minus the ones we had guessed and spy. I think he was hoping they would also ignore drop. I guess you can have a covert drop, so that helps.

I'd point out that the only games we lost we only had two turns and were a lock to win in 3. Well played this series, fellas.

A pleasure partnering with my pals Carl and D1iab my first time playing this Codenames business. Would love to get randed together again some time. A shame we couldn’t stay perfect on guesses, but 35/37 with no opposing team clues is pretty okay in my book.

Well played, great rookie effort. Agreed with the bold.

I debated dehydrated vs dried and a couple other variants for awhile, not sure it matters though. Any peach, powder, drop clue ideas? I thought about cobbler-3 but that seemed rather thin.

Hindsight, but cobbler could’ve been a good one. We might’ve gotten to the dropping of the dough into the skillet. But who knows, maybe we would’ve gone beat or pound thinking of a cobbler fixing shoes or something. And spies are known to love cobbler.

I still can’t believe Cap wasn’t a red clue. I was certain we had a third turn as soon as they locked in their last three.

Great job getting there guys. Wasn't sure what to do to let you know key was for manager so figured had to zero to not let "usable 3" have you pick engine instead of key.

Ianaww got us there! I was going Atlantis after flipping a coin haha.
Don’t know why cap was overlooked, just didn’t see it on explosion myself but probably should have. Ignorance won it

Very well played guys. It's not that easy for a team to be on the same page like that for such a long period of time. Gg all.
