F4 or e4 are both good starts, but neither get there on their own unless they can deduce some stuff. I think e4 followed by m6 or something is the way to go unless someone has a banger.

No bangers in immediate two rounds so I'm happy with your plan

We go e4 and it's 65% that Nich figures out f4 and binks it.

Yeah, this really shouldn't be too hard to deduce imo.

First thought was melted and feta bc I like cheese in my eggs but no muenster and also just no

fowl and masala for chicken works much better but I’m not sold yet…why not fried? Why not hen?

Thinking there will be lots of f4/m6 that fit

Yeah, fowl is what came to me for f4 initially. Good catch on masala. Agreed that not naming h3 is problematic. I’d also say that, if this were chicken, then leading with fowl and having e3/4 as a confirmer is better than the other way around.

Will have to think more on this in a bit.

If hen then m6 is mother

Egg mother is hen
Mother fowl is hen

Wish they’d use the “left of” and “right of” part of the game so we’d know

Other option for eggs is bacon for bacon and eggs but no m4 meat and no f4 or m6 that I can think of

Deviled eggs
Fire for devil

But no demon and seems we may have had devil

Eggs for humans also; baby/fetus/pregnancy stuff but don’t see anything great there

We already had cereal

Milk was done? If not then farm but no m4 for maid or m3 for milkman (go ask him if you wanna know the truth about the tale)

Pancakes? Would be flapjacks tho for sure

Not shell or white bc that’s egg not eggs

Eggs and m6 is maggot so larva but f3 is fly not f4 tho f4 is flea

F4 is frog but not sure of an m6 with that

Ugh

Eggs hits too many damn things and hits them as an obvious option when hearing the word

But hens lay eggs and are fowl so regardless of no house clue, we should prolly just go hen to save time

goose could work but you’d say egg not eggs

Bird eggs but egret

Scrambled eggs but m5 mixed

Hen seems best so far even if no house clue is scaring me

You think we go hen even without house or do we find an alternative?
