What about the fact the guy in the final pic is in military dress?
I mean why isn't it a wizard or something with a ZAP! Effect or whatever else, like he bricked us into Bee which perhaps he just missed and needed the other words, but idk. I guess they're a little dressed?

The final pic already needs to combine tank+knife+smoothie so....more than 3 seems ambitious. If there's a different scene that could get those without military guy? Idk...

He didn’t miss bee. He had to get school and spell. He knew we’d bold bee first and he was fine with it because it was neutral. He found a picture of a school spelling bee with audio equipment and a sound guy in the background. Simple as that.

And I don’t know why you keep seeming to think I’m considering dress because of that picture. I’m not considering dress because of that picture. I’m considering dress because the guy in the final picture is in military dress. What he is wearing is literally called military/service dress.

I am also considering staff. Because the 3rd picture has teaching staff and the 4th picture has a guy who is military staff.

I get what you mean by pic 4 and what he is wearing, I just think there's a high chance he was only going for 3 because tank + knife + smoothie is hard in itself

I’m confused by what you’re trying to get at with this line. Do you think there’s a word left to get from pic 3? Because this is what you’ve been saying:

Now you’re trying to come up with better pictures he could’ve used for pic 3 (lol “anything soundy like idk”) for some reason. Are you just trying to prove that he didn’t need to show a spelling bee? If so, let’s consider moving past that. If you think there’s another word to get from pic 3, let me know what it is.

I’ve asked three times now what you think our final word might be. Throw out some ideas, bro

No I don't think we need anything from pic 3 but I'm not ruling it out. And if we did need something it would have to be Staff, tho Dress could work like we said

I'm sorta ignoring the military dress in pic 4 for the logic that the other 3 is hard enough to link, if we do think there is a 4th I think we consider joan/that's French?

The more I look the more I think pic 3 is the opposite of dressed so I don't think it's ours, pic 4 I think just splashed into it a lil

I have no idea how pic 3 is the opposite of dressed, but whatever. I’m still between dress and staff.

Just bold what you want.

No one in pic 3 is "dressed up", there are no dresses, it's all casual clothes

The opposite of dressed is undressed.

This is the part of the game that gets frustrating, where you are intent on proving that your teammate’s ideas are wrong “because idk not feeling it” and you don’t offer a firm perspective on an alternative.

I love ya, dude. But it’s time to move on. Bold something. I’d prefer it be one of staff or dress, but if you want to bold anything else then go ahead. I’m not debating or discussing anymore.

My alternative that I've suggested is I think we need another word from pic 1 or 2, and the best I can come up with is Polish. I may look again.

There's nothing about proving anyone wrong, I want to win. And I'm stating my reasons for why I don't like the options of Dressing and Staff.

This may not be a winnable spot, I just don't want you to be upset if you tell me to hold anything and I fire a random looking word.

If you're done discussing I'll just talk to myself a bit and bold something. Feel free to chime in if you have thoughts

Are the things I really have trouble getting over. Us being unclear often makes me think we have everything and to treat it like an unlimitedish/n-1 clue and it's possible with Polish there he just had 3+3 in mind.

Completely different thought is we do want something like Staff, or maybe something else like Sugar or King Arthur from pic 4. It perhaps could have been someone in a tank top like pic 2 with a knife and smoothie fruit so there is an idea that pic 4 does have 4.

Hmmm.....

Bear - not seeing anything for this besides some animal to bee or 2 step thing, pretty off it
Berlin - doesn't seem like ours, nothing points there
Cheese - nothing points here
Dress - we have clothes, they have clothes. Feels effort was made to not have any dress clothes or dresses in pic 3
Eagle - don't see anything for this
Joan of Arc - starting to come around to this is probably theirs lol
King Arthur - perhaps this is ours? Very difficult to link
Pen - don't see pens anywhere
Polish - I liked this before, it's obviously eh
Quack - kinda like bear, pretty hard to get here for us
Staff - sooorta works for pic 3. Sorta the opposite of staffy looking, like 1 person running the show and 1 sound guy having the time of his life
Sugar - I'm kinda off this, could be a different pic maybe
Tie - doesn't seem like theirs but we have nothing for it
Zombie - our pics look very lively besides sound guy

Why do you continue to ignore and minimize my reasons for the words I’m considering? This is why I’m done discussing. Just ****ing bold something bro, this is getting boring.

Why do you keep saying this? I'm trying to logic it out and think of possibilities, you seem intent on thinking I'm attacking and minimizing you in some way. I'm not. I'm talking out loud and trying to reason out what the word could be. Thanks for the Russian thing, that actually helps and I feel ashamed for not knowing.

Going to be impossible to convince me off of any of those five. Which leaves us with two more.

Staff?
Smoothie?
Dress?
Pen?

And then basically a tossup between staff and dress. In b4 smoothie is dark orchid.

Which one of the remaining words is represented in either pic 1 or 2? The most words we were clued in one go was already from pic 1. And pic 2 is about as straightforward as you can get. It’s a picture of a computer screen with a logo of an Australian airline.

Yeah, super curious that I’m just bringing this up for no reason!

But you know, it’s probably totally King Arthur. Go ahead and bold that for all of the compelling reasons you’ve posted. I’m convinced!

I’m literally not posting again until the next game.
