Does anything else even remotely fit buckle here? I'm open to ideas because I'm not seeing it.

No, I’m thinking more along the lines of what we’ve been clued and what we’ve guessed thus far.

sensei - 4
Ninja
Teacher
Bow

gazebo - 4
Park
Chair
Table

buckle - unlimited
Shoe

If we go with Gold and Fair, we’re saying they were both already clued. I could buy Fair being clued for gazebo, as we’ve discussed already. How does Gold hit sensei? Does it? Is Shoe the last sensei word?

I could imagine Fair being the other sensei word. Principles of fairness and all that.

And the fact that we never mentioned it would require a re-clue.

Park
Table
Chair
Soldier
Cook
Pass

Fair


so we had cook and fair both on our list so unlimited could be for those 2 if he's using it the standard way

in this scenario, unlimited is also used for 2nd on list, when first is incorrect

that's how I use it and I *think* how d1 does, but maybe he's gone to the ervin dark side and is using unlimited as n-1 now...which is just more confusing than using n-1


the 'next 2 words on list' meaning is tough here since it's a no list game, but ALSO I think if it's just shoe, he doesn't go buckle; he says 'sneaker' or 'clogs' or whatever, not buckle

so I think buckle has to be for shoe+gold

that makes me think unlimited is for 2nd on list; which is fair in my post I just quoted above (which was actually illegal in this game due to this being no-list game; I had forgotten)...but our more mentioned word was definitely fair, so I think if he clues buckle - 2 here he expects us to go fair ~ every time, so that puts me off of fair

gold+shoe to me would be Bolt or Usain, as he famously wears gold shoes

but buckle is a fine clue for the 2 and I don't see a single other word that hits buckle, and this can't just hit shoe or just hit gold, as there are 3432423 better clues to indicate just one word

so I'm pretty much 100% of the time guessing shoe+gold here if it were just me

the only question is what is the final word

What’s the 4th sensei word? Do you agree with eb that D1iab clued for Fair twice?

I'm good with fair as our last word

I was pushing cook over fair, even beyond my list; he may have thought if he did 2 clue that we'd use my (illegal) list to go with cook, so he went unlimited to get us to think more about it and we do need another sensei word and fair is a good option as sensei often judges sparring competitions and also teaches students about fairness, etc

so shoe/gold/fair is good with me if ya'll like those 3; if not, let's discuss options further

Yep, this is correct. I thought you'd most likely guess board first, but you would pick up fair on the rebound. Then I was just gonna clue bench for park/table/chair. When it was clear you were nowhere near it, I pivoted to gazebo.

Gg all.

And for the record, I am off the n-1 convention. I thought I made that clear in a post upthread, but I just wanna hammer that home now.

I'm amused with myself that I thought the clue was Orson Welles for some good War of the Worlds words, then I remembered duh, HG Wells to the same thing.

Yea DZ you did great 3+3 as Blue with 2 left to win is a lot of pressure on Red, they have to clue and hit a lot(including last turn)/essentially avg perfect 3 a turn
