A lot of those words on our list they haven’t been clued off of so we shouldn’t be guessing them and helping them out

Also, any reason we don’t put nurse and laundry above sun? There were sunglasses but nothing about nurse or laundry yet?

i liked guessing sun on my first instinct from the first pic cuz it would have been easy to include sun, or at least sunlight in a pic with a walrus and/or glasses

but you talked me out of it because they are sunglasses, which is a good point. so i have mixed feelings about sun.

it wasn't specifically clued in any of our pics. it was low key clued, but would have been very easy to obv include, especially in the grass pic

im pretty ambivalent about the bottom of the list. you should put sun where you think, and then guess whip and pass, or even take it off the list if you think we shouldnt guess sun. im fine with that too

still in play:
whip
atlantis
hit
himalayas
nurse
microwave
texas - lower due to 'Merica' on walrus image
laundry - lower due to grass on shirt
sun - lower due to sunglasses; not out due to cloudy day


likely out:
nail (fingernails prominent)
current (Ukraine pic)

out:
walrus
glasses
polish
gum
queen

we need 7 more and have 6 solid then 3 that are lower on list

I also would put laundry over texas as their image was with a tshirt while ours wasn't...both had Merica


also current is never theirs so it's safe to guess; even if probably neutral, just in case it's ours we should do it if we aren't going for the win here...in which case we would go whip/atlantis/current


HOWEVER, their list is only 5 long and 2 are theirs, so they only need a 3 clue to win this game, so we prolly are gonna have to go for it, so let's look closer

their list:
Gum - out for us, could be theirs
Himalayas - on our list
Microwave - on our list
Nurse - on our list
Polish - out for us, could be theirs

I think given gum/polish could be their last 2, there is a shot the other 3 are ours along with whip/atlantis/hit and then laundry


let's start with the words on our list that aren't on theirs...whip/atlantis/hit/laundry...if those are all ours, then we can consider guessing ones on their list (which helps them if we don't win)

I do sorry I'm out of town this weekend. If you can allow a little more time I should be able to get to this more tmw

I will say I don't think it's Gum + Microwave

That could have just been a picture of mountains/Himalayas and we're done, instead we need to rule out more stuff

I do see where you're coming from, but not sure what else we're supposed to do. We have a list of 5 and he clued against everything in that list apart from gum/microwave.

Eh yea guess that's true...but if insanity needed us to get to it what other pic could there be?

Or it's some other word like laundry that we eliminated before and it's ours, I just don't think it's the gun + microwave combo because the clue seems excessive

I guarantee it’s not gun+microwave

This game works different to normal codenames in that getting a 1 clue here could mean we're not supposed to go for the win and just guess gum/pass. The idea is to clue against all words until you are left with just yours, which is what he just did.

Wat? There's no way insanity wants us to pass at the end here

Fine firing microwave to make some progress but we can debate the other word

Insanity is 0% going for any pass and we should just move further down the list if that's your thought(and it is my thought just which word?)

Did you even read my post? I said that could be his intention if he only clued for himalayas. We are clearly meant to win here, and gum/microwave is the only logical combo to guess. You seem to wanna skip over gum because...reasons?

This is gonna be gum/microwave ~always. Guessing anything else would be just plain stupid.
