Inaugural Wahoo Codenames Thread - Page 8 - Puzzles and Other Games Forum

It is from Silent Hill which is a well-regarded video game series and a bad movie.

I have not played the good video game series but have seen the bad movie. It was also a theme for a WW game here like 10 years back.

Kind of rough because CBB and Video games are both reasonably likely things for a POGger to like and these are both not common knowledge but not obscure references

Hmm. Yeah idk. It's hard to soul read.

So if it is CBB we'd probably go:

Mexico/Court/Penny/Pit

If it is Silent Hill it could be

Mexico/Helmet/Blade/?? maybe also Pit

I guess my gut is to go your CBB connection

In part because blade is quite reasonably next on their list so I think there aren't enough words connected through PyramidHead

Naw. I'm not sure if it's technically illegal, but I think it's bad form, & I think our thoughts are pretty clear.

Kk. Yea I'm used to it being illegal with friends irl since you can't think while people chat but wasn't sure in text form.

yeah, we've outlawed it on POG; you have to get your thoughts out about the list after seeing the clue but before getting the info that one of yours is wrong (i.e., before your turn ends)

I remember the debates & pushing for that rule, but not the result.

I apologize for my reaction post to the reveal.

Lists seem right.

I like kilt>paper I think because Germany/Penny/Paper might be Deutschmark - eh, that probably wouldn’t be a legal clue.

So yeah, maybe it is those three ahead of kilt.

For hunt, I probably like shoot>squirrel>>web>blade>>shark

We can guess four here. Thoughts on order? Maybe Germany—>Shoot—>Penny—>Squirrel? Swap Penny and Squirrel? Swap out Squirrel for Paper?

I think we do our top 3 euro words and then shoot

Just be clear our order of other hunt words

I’m fine with squirrel blade web shark if you want

We only have 4 euro words so the fourth is our makeup euro if we are wrong on a euro

I think I have web>blade, but I could be convinced otherwise.

I’m fine with top 3 euro and then shoot.

If you’re okay with Squirrel>Blade=Web>Shark then go ahead and bold Germany, Penny, Paper, Shoot.

If we need to agree on Blade vs Web before bolding, we can chat more.

Blade is better in a vacuum tho I wouldn’t want to say it as soon given they are thinking about it

But for an actual ordered list I think blade should be just above web

Hunt: shoot, squirrel, blade

Makes sense...you know track will be said but it’s neutral

Hunt: shoot, squirrel, web

You figure track and blade and maybe shark will be said before web...you prolly go a different route (like NRA?)
