Also why is it capitalised?

Yeah, this clue makes no sense to me at all.

Ok so looking back we had guitar as our last mentioned unguessed word, so my best guess is that ervin is using unlimited for that but also cluing for it to add an extra bit of equity or something. Of course, he made it unnecessarily confusing by doing that, but ervin gonna ervin.

But none of that explains the capital either. If Mahogany is supposed to be a reference to something else then it's gone totally over my head.

And maybe guitar was supposed to be an MJ word and he missed king lol. I dunno, this is one of the strangest games of codenames I've played.

I think this makes the most sense. It makes very little sense, but more than any other scenario I can think of.

Good morning,

Have to chew on what the capitalization implies. Nothing's jumping at me.

But based on the bare word and clue: Guitars are typically made of wood, and Sherwood has wood in it.

I do not understand why unlimited, either. We have no make up, at all, unless one of the six wasn't actually intended as being clued by one of the two clues.

Either the Johnson and Johnson angles were accidental (seems improbable when we hit so well), or one of the Michael Jackson words wasn't (would have to be foot I think).

Break(dancing)? Halloween (Thriller)?

Break/Sherwood? Cmon. I don't buy it.

Unless we know a reason it's capitalized, I think it just has to be Guitar/Sherwood.

I can't do any better than guitar and sherwood, but this still makes no sense to me at all.

Seems we all agree.

Guitar
Sherwood

yep

still not sure what happened on the Johnson clue, but good job

i guess my second clue should have been something different. like "Fructis" maybe, but that seemed cheap

never would have imagined king would be the second guess for canada. or that washington wouldn't be a ~lock. maybe i'm ignorant


gg

Johnson *had* to be what we inferred (Michael Johnson, Johnson & Johnson) or I don't see how you ever get to those words in that way.

Great cluing by Ervin. We should have gone with King of Pop. It was too flashing siren obvious.

Nah, he never should've clued it in the first place. And if we did guess it that turn then it actually would've helped the red team more than guessing Washington did.

Gg

Great guessing team!

I don't remember what I thought for Jackson anymore, I may have missed King being next for them or I mighta just gone meh screw it and stuck to a certain plan for our words anyway. I typically don't like to rely on the other team guessing our stuff if possible(tho in this case it was very likely they would), I think I wanted last names and proper stuff to give more equity to Sherwood and hopefully avoid a forest clue

Johnson I perhaps coulda gone for the full 5, I wasn't expecting Cotton to get guessed - was hoping for Lap like you got, Virus either for J&J or even more for Magic. And then I hoped you'd go Sherwood(only other possible last name with Washington gone) or Guitar(there's a company Johnson guitars, plenty of people named Johnson play guitar). Worked out great though as I was hoping to be left with 2 and the Cotton guess got us there.

And then yea, on last turn basically what D1 said - you had guitar as the only other mentioned word so it was always going to be an unlimited clue, and then I figured add the most equity to both as Mahogany can also work as a last name/brand, but also of course wood for the Sher and guitar

Nice job team! GG all

Wow. That was crazy then.

Haha worked out well! If you didn't get cotton imagine you would have gone for guitar since that was the only other mentioned word so woulda just had to figure out cotton + virus on last turn, but Sherwood with guitar lined up was even easier!

If I knew cotton woulda been picked I really woulda tried Johnson for 5, we we mighta hit!

Bridge....turkey....

Clubs are Green in a four color deck.

A Club and a Staff are both blunt weapons

I thought of the Staff connection too so don't dislike that

Green....eeeeh....maybe I suppose?? If we don't think of anything else that could be a reasonable candidate

You can swing a club.

Oooh yea I like that one
