It's gotta be related to something specific about the titanic, which Im interpeting to mean sunk. Otherwise like Evergreen probably works better as a gigantic ship

Possible connections are:

Africa - no, never
Antarctica - water adjacent
Atlantis - underwater? maybe?
Centaur - no
Cloak - nah
Cook - nah
Draft - I don't think so?
Foot - nah
Giant - reasonable, it's big
Loch ness - body of water? also fake creature?
March - nah
Olympus - don't think so?
Scuba diver - it's underwater

Ordered list is probably:

Giant - reasonable, it's big
Scuba diver - it's underwater
Atlantis - underwater? maybe?
Antarctica - water adjacent
Loch ness - body of water? also fake creature?

Yea I'm kinda on the same list as you...with maybe Olympus? But eh

Antarctica stuck out the most to me, it's not exactly an iceberg but you need to hit giant + Antarctica this seems like a good clue

Is kinda hard to tell tho, I could make arguments for Atlantis and scuba diver too...the fact that they're so hard to differentiate makes me think it's neither of them

I was thinking just something like glacier for giant+Antarctica.

I hate the "what's a vetter clue" line if thinking, but yeah.

Glacier I wouldn't necessarily think giant

Titanic I'm absolutely guessing giant cause that's the literal definition

I'm good to play the "what's the better clue haha"

EB just convinced me in a game where I was thinking pasture for a green + unicorn clue but pasture actually didn't hit unicorn as hard, the actual clue did so I kinda took it for granted

In that sense we're only discussing giant because the clue is Titanic, if it was glacier or iceberg or something we probably wouldn't even think about it

Since we're always guessing it, and if it's wrong, might as well get this party moving along

Well let's play "what's a better clue" lol

Africa - I'm off this, elephant or something
Antarctica - seems like the hit. Immediately makes me think of icebergs and stuff even though it's far from actual stuff
Atlantis - kinda could be? Watery?
Centaur - so no
Cloak - no
Cook - we'd get some grande meal, not this
Draft - wemby or some basketball players, no
Foot - big - 2 would get this so no
Loch ness - a little tricky with foot above but I'd think we get...Godzilla or something idk, not this
March - I don't see how we guess this
Olympus - will be tough to get here, Hercules or something seems better?
Scuba diver - watery thing and candidate

The watery clues do blend together a little bit. obvious from spymaster perspective but ok narrowing it down

Antarctica - still seems strong
Atlantis - watery. Would like to think of something for this, giant would be a tough combo really
Olympus - almost certainly no, maybe mountain or something but keeping it just to consider
Scuba Diver - more water stuff. Also seems like a tough pair w giant

I guess Antartica can be ok. I dunno. I'm torn between that and scuba diver.
But I'm coming around.

I won't be mad if you want to bold it.

I'll think on it a bit more

I can't think of a good clue for scuba diver and giant either unfortunately...maybe octopus - 2 or something?

Just seems Antarctica is the strongest, one of those were we could justify several things but should probably just go with the one kinda sticking out

Atlantis + giant is a tough link too. I keep thinking we'd get a clue like "shipwreck" if it was this but that wouldn't actually hit giant again like Titanic does

Atlantis has some reasonable Blue/Purple equity given the City - 0 clue. Just a question of which.

Yea agreed

I'm gonna think a tad more, Antarctica is still my lean right now but I'd feel waaaay better if either of us could think of some possible clues for giant + candidates so we could rule something out

I think glacier is notably better for Antarctica because I think they are pretty big. But also, those are tough words to comment. And I can def see that being a solid clue for it.

I feel we might guess draft or something w a glacier clue

Like with Titanic we definitely think glacier and Antarctica, with glacier we'd think Antarctica but probably look for something cold/watery before big
