ugh tho, he capitalized it

the only capitalized Stingray I know is a Corvette, but none of these words hit Corvette for me

there may be something else I don't know though

I think we need to go cable since it's capitalized

there MUST be a show named Stingray at some point in history

bee
fire
sail
snap
ground
cable

maybe not bee then?

I think we have to keep bee. Too close with the sting.

yea I think other ways to clue for something like paint + floor such as redecorate so agreed on your 2

paint
parrot

and then we need 1 more....still between snap and agent I guess

Agent maybe? Since it shouldn't be a Stingray word?

and then the top word on our list can be snap

We said the top word on our list is snap, though, & our cluegiver has to be able to trust our list.

yea I think I prefer agent - I think it's possible we get a 2 clue rather than unlimited if snap is our word but it seemed like more of a stretch and we both liked agent more to start so think that's our best...I don't really see the snap connection to stingray so don't think it's the most dangerous but yea...kinda my current thoughts

If he's cluing for 2+1, he should clue a 2. Unless the strategy changed since I played.

If it's Agent is the clue colorful 3? Cuz Agent Orange?

We can't tell him what our next word is & then swap it, though.

some people would clue unlimited to go down the list - there can be some ambiguity because in this case we could go down the list 1 or 2 - wahoo may have wanted to avoid that entire cluster so I think it's possible we get a clue for 2 like we did and then it could be either word(or something else we haven't considered). i could see colorful 3 if it was agent but agent orange actually slipped my mind and maybe it was thought that a 3 clue would get us off our otherwise correct candidates.

so yea - I basically don't think any options are ruled out but that it is one of those 2 words...just how to decide...

I think you made our choice for us when you said snap was next on our list.

That's the information our cluegiver has to use, so we can't just rip that out from under him.
