Angel is the obvious choice

Undertaker is for death but not necessarily for heaven and coroner is a better clue anyway

Just waiting for us to get 5 others to agree to angel so we can take the W and move on to the next round

It’s totally Angel (SPINoff of Buffy the Vampire Slayer).

Not sure if anyone’s mentioned this yet, but it’s probably angel.

It's obviously angel, but I'm having a very tough time relating it to spin.

This has to be the rationale.

I suppose so.

We can just go ahead and bold it now, right? No way it's wrong.

I'll probably do a deeper dive write-up in the wee hours of the morning but right now I have to get ready for an overnight shift at work.

Dwarf was the 4th word for spin. Rumpelstiltskin spun straw into gold. Angel & Robin were both part of the "High 5" and I never thought of Water.

I wasn't too worried about my team getting a word wrong at the end when I clued "unlimited". It's just that there was no way I was going to clue "Batman - 1" and limit the team to 3 guesses. I had a hunch that they'd get 4 or 5 right before they missed, and when they did miss it would probably be with a neutral (I guessed pie would go, and didn't really think about log.) I wasn't really concerned about any blue or dark orchid words slipping in there at the end with that clue.

Okay, screw it. I'll make this a write-up and hopefully not be late for work...

I thought of spin and was patting myself on the back that it was a brilliant clue. But I wasn't sure if "spin" would be legal while "spine" was still on the board, so I got rid of spine first. Then once spine was out of the way, I eventually realized "Revolution" would be a roadblock, but I figured we had a nice lead so I posted it anyhow and hoped revolution wouldn't get mentioned first. Or that at least the team would have a nice discussion about all of the possible words before revolution got bolded. That blew up in my face, but luckily the team rallied. I wasn't worried about drill or circle, and someone thought of "web" which was clutch.

Anyhow, it was a fun game, and my team rose to the occasion. And blue had an objectively more difficult word list than red did. I'm looking forward to the next game
