We found ourselves in a very sticky situation for turn 3.

We still had 5 words on the board and any unlimited clue I would have given would have likely resulted in you guessing Queen (their word) as catch up. I decided to clue you away from Queen and Model (assassin word) and just pray for a miracle. Possibly could have done more earlier on, but I think that was the best I could do at that point of the game

gg red

Will ask for a rand for born and nails in the main thread.

Gg blues, and great guessing nails!

Only thing I'll say is that I think it was a mistake to guess kiwi last turn. There is really no upside to it, and a lot of potential downside. If it's ours then you would still get a 1 clue next turn, and if it isn't then at best it just gives them more info (and I would've had to clue the same way that turn even if kiwi was assassin). It would be different if I gave you a 1 or 3 clue, of course. Just a minor thing, but thought I should mention it in case it comes up again.

Fair enough. I guessed it because I was pretty certain it was right, but I get where you're coming from -- I'll always have a chance to guess it on the next turn, and your cluing on that turn will point me in the right direction.

saw this on my phone earlier and would have responded sooner if it wasn't as big as a 7 clue.

Lemme do some analysis...

Doping is the overlap of sports and drugs and so I'm looking for sports and drugs words.

Beach - Beach volleyball
Beijing - Beijing Olympics
Bonsai
Bucket
Camp
Cotton - Cotton mouth
Fighter - Sport word
Fish - Can't imagine there's any doping in fishing
Helmet - Sports equipment
Kangaroo
Lip
Maple
Mug
Olympus - Kinda similar to Olympic, but would it be an angle to clue it for this reason? I'm sure there are more tenuous connections to the God and the mountain
Pitcher - Sport word
River
Roll - Drugs word
Sleep
Steam
Steel
Teacher
Tutu
Wagon
Wheel
Yellowstone

Beijing
Beach

I could maybe see something like wheel, roll, or even cotton being up there, but hopefully it doesn't get that far.
