ambulance - 100%
atlantis - some connection to the Sirens, but not capitalized and not great connection anyway, so no
check - nah
degree - nah
drill - maybe; like a tornado drill siren or nuclear drill sirens during cold war
hood - lots of cops in the hood, but nah
note - would be siren, not sirens, if talking about the note that a siren plays
round - they are often round, but also are often rectangular, nah
tag - nah
trunk - nah
van - nah
war - seems pretty good


ambulance is never not getting guessed

war and drill are next best...I think I like war a bit more than drill

hmm

Is ambulance-war easier via something like Red Cross? (Obviously not Red Cross). Maybe medic?

So ambulance-drill might be a better shout

im now on drill given ambulance-war has much easier shouts tbh:
- medic
- death
etc.

Shrapnel, etc

Yeah lots of options for war+ambulance…MASH for one obvious one


Plus war could be for prison, even tho it shoulda been prisoner


The problem is what if he overlooked drill and just thought war was only thing that matched so didn’t bother with the others? But it also seems like medic or MASH or other stuff woulda come to mind before sirens for war+ambulance


For drill+ambulance he coulda done CPR but I’m not thinking of a lot of other options there…but he also had to think about sirens used in drills and that seems easy to overlook

yeah, I don't love sirens for war and I do love medic/death/MASH/shrapnel/others for war so I think I'm on drill

drill+ambulance is hard to pair; even CPR has blockers like check (for pulse, or for wallet if they die)


I think it's drill much more often than war

I do think war is theirs and he didn't do prisoner bc he didn't want them guessing the blue bond word by making it about the person


I think Prisoner - 3 is the clue tho for war, cell, bed because of POWs, but I can see him trying to avoid bond...prison avoids it by not going jail (they are called jail bonds usually) and by not going prisoner...but it harms getting war, but he could figure they'd eventually run out of neutral words like time and have to go war

I'm actually kinda liking Atlantis for the Greek mythology angle and those words being particularly hard to connect. Drill seems ok tho.

I'm not really liking drill after thinking about it a little more...I feel like that is more alarm than siren. I think round should be given a little more consideration - not just for the shape, but because the light goes round as well.

So I'm on round/atlantis>drill, but if you guys both like drill better then I'm cool with it.

I’m not on Atlantis as it wasn’t capitalized

And yes I know he coulda just overlooked that but capitalization has to have meaning or else it’s useless


I’m ok with round…tire is more obvious but van blocks that


I will say that we call them sirens not alarms for drills…tornado sirens etc

I guess I’m ok with drill or round; I don’t love either but one most likely has to be ours

Even when sirens are rectangular, like they normally are, such as on ambulance or police car, the lights themselves go round and round inside the rectangular container

I think given drill sargeant and how easy it would be to overlook drill that I’m leaning round over drill, prolly 60/40 or even a bit higher


So yeah my vote is for round

Still need the last prison word too, which I'm guessing is War.
