Regular Run of the Mill NO LIST Codenames! - Page 115

oh lmao. reading is hard

idk. he could have been going for a few tenuous connections, but if you both wanna guess, i'd be fine with spell

but the game score is kind of in a weird spot where we might have more to lose by guessing

do you think? i feel we have more to lose by not guessing...that leaves them with 2 turns and 5 words while we need 4 words in 1 turn.

but if you think passing is better and giving them the 2 turns with 5 I'm ok with it

my thinking is that he would need to have a 3 ready to win next turn after just giving a 2. and usually you try and knock the bigger clues out earlier. not always, but usually. and if he does give a 3, we'd still get a guess for the win anyway

if we guess a blue, we'd 100% need to get 4 next turn, which seems unlikely

if we give them no help, they'd still need to get a 3 at some point. looks like a hard list too

if you both wanna guess spell, i'm still fine with it. just seems like an unneeded risk since lumberjack had equity imo (lawyer/police would never be superheros for filthy, but idk his stance on lumberjacks)

I guess out of courtesy I shouldn't just bold this, but it's so obviously Beijing and Disease.

Hospital? Slipper? Wave?

Pass IMO

or could try to snap something off and guess spell

slipper was my initial thought for foot massage. and because everything else sucks

i guess hospital could fit. wave seems unlikely because of our last clue

i'm fine with going for it since it appears like he wants to try and win here. should prob start with spell if we do

actually he'd prob do chiropractor or orthopedist if it was hospital, so i'd go with slipper unless we're missing something

Aight let's see what Dr Z thinks

Passing seems risky but slipper + spell immediate guess seems bad to me too

Hmm

I think hospital > slipper as massages are often where you get them whereas slipper is a bit of a double link

I think spell is definitely right btw but you guys are unconvinced

given we disagree though unsure whats best move

i'm good with spell

i'm fine with hospital too if both of you prefer it. i just thought the clue would be different to hit it harder. chiropractic/orthopedic, even hernia(ted) all hit hospital and the first two pretty hard

maybe your hospitals are different over there, but i'd never say massages are often given at hospitals
