I dunno I still like track the most. It did make me think of train track and that definitely conducts a bunch of electricity unlike a bridge or bar(not familiar with enough science to know if there's some conducting bar)?

I don't wanna go all rogue and bold track without an OK but bridge and bar just seem wrong to me

Not really a fan of track. Why wouldn't he just clue electricity if that was really his intention? Also, circuit seems like a way better clue for that combo.

Eh circuit hits belt and some other stuff. I wouldn't have thought of track for electricity at all, I'm only thinking it cause a train track is the only thing up there that actually conducts electricity. Trains also have conductors, but clueing that would make it hard for us to hit our words as well...

I dunno, haven't been convinced to move off track and it's still my favorite/vote so would wanna go there unless you both like something more and wanna outvote

Conductor hits train/track much harder than conductivity, so this clue could be to specifically avoid track. Can't guess it imo

You can make several extra connections for most clues, but if there are 2 words on the board that are clearly better than anything else, then you should still use that clue. There is no way something like belt would ever be said before track/current for circuit.

Both track and bridge have pretty obviously clearer clues imo, whereas I can't really think of anything better for bar, so that's my vote.

guess i'll change to 52/48 bar because of aqueduct and having no clue what the bar/current clue would be

i'd probably just try to make different combos if i had those two

Lol, yeah. But when there are a bajillion water related words on the board, your options are probably very limited trying to connect current to anything.

Conductor doesn't really hit track tho, that would be that 2 step clue we all know and hate. Now that it's conductivity we're suddenly considering track and it's close enough to conductor(which could also run into problems like musician conductor and we're thinking other words)

I see same issue for circuit, there are cities up there, often associated w racing I dunno. It does hit our words pretty hard and maybe eb just didn't think of it or was concerned about it hitting something else...

If you both wanna pick one of the other words for for it, I'm still just on track level 0 style as it conducts electricity and nothing else up there does

idk, a handful of things on the list conduct electricity. depends on what definition you use (just like track)

Yea track just hits pretty hard for me out of those

I have no issues if I'm outvoted - I like that aspect since I've been dead wrong and having 2 smart people keep you in check is cool, but I haven't been swayed off track so that's my vote

I wouldn't really object to guessing track tbh, but we should probably pick something soon.

i'm lost

i still think track is the worst of the three, but i guess the definition that fits circuit also kind of fits here? not a fan of the train track connection

anyway, don't really care anymore

i'm still bar = bridge >> track, but yeah we need to bold something
