4. Everything I know about this is conflicting, Nottingham makes me think of the Sheriff, there's Robin Hood and the castle and stuff. Petrified makes me think Frozen, or Medusa or something. Fangorn I only know from magic card Firstborn which costs GGGG. I could see this being Forest or Woods or something but have no way to tell which one so sadly Pass
5. Also took me a second but magazine really helped to get issue

Well done AE!!! Glad we got so many supporting clues through without duping.. I kind of thought when I saw the pool of clues that you'd get the first 4 and perhaps pass on issue.

Issue was tough to clue for and that was good piece of work tying those clues together to get it..

Nice work.

Think .org rather than .org/lists would've been better accepted for random but i'm sure AE would've got it anyway lol

Yes.

Also Nylund, Jalen, and a surprising number of wrestlers (Adam, Buddy, Mandy, Nyla)

Just bad luck that you picked someone I have never heard of.

Yeah, dammit.

Still pretty shocked you've never heard of her before, even without seeing any of her movies. I think she was even in Miss POG a couple of times!

Oh yeah

Chickpea and peanut

I guess we need to have clarity on compound words going forward

Official rules are silent on it

Just say words from same family are dupes, so bean/soybean would dupe I think

Chickpea and peanut the first is pea root and the second is nut root so maybe they don’t dupe? Or maybe they do bc both have pea in them

In Codenames you can’t clue chickpea if peanut is on the board because you can’t clue any word that shares either part of a compound word that is still on the board

But just one is silent there so up to us I guess

Chickpea/peanut not dupes.

I'm kinda thinking this. Nut would eliminate peanut but pea wouldn't. Pea would eliminate chickpea and something like walnut would eliminate peanut? Or are those different enough

That would be the “same base dupes” that seems more in line with Just One rules

While Codenames you can’t match any part of any word on the board, whether it’s first or second part of compound word
