Yea I'm with you and agree it doesn't seem like Christmas

Doesn't seem like giant cause m4 could be mega and they'd know this

Need to figure out what this c5/c6 thing is

info from the team:

c5 and m4 first to mind, but m4 is shadowfax and left field
there's also m3

j5 maybe
c6 would get it
c5 good confirmer

j5 vote from bolt
c6 def gets it according to bolt

1 c5 is broad and the other is a lock if not a shadowfax

bolt doesn't love j5 as a starting clue, but f14 followup will get it

basically everyone knew what j5 was, so assuming all were thinking of Jolly, it's a pretty obvious connection

My big post didn’t get posted, but cliff notes

Jolly Green Giant

Not green: no emerald, jade
Not Giant: no ogre or other words I had
Not mascot
Not veggies

Not the right Jolly connection


If Christmas Jolly then why not Jingle instead? And why no Christmas clue/confirmer


So prolly just pirate or pirate ship or pirate flag

Not captain bc no Captain Morgan or Captain Cook

But no mutiny or crew either, which means prolly not pirate


So we are just cooked here

I think I’m just on Jolly Rancher as the clue

C5 is candy that’s broader than the other

C6 could be Charms who makes Blow Pops

Fruit-flavored is 14 letters

So lollipop is the word

Pitch Perfect has a song about sucking too hard on a lollipop that maybe is by Mika for m4? He did that “I could be brown I could be blue I could be violet sky” thing that gets stuck in your head that Ryan Reynolds and will ferrell covered on YouTube shorts etc maybe 2 years ago and the lollipop seems like his style

Otherwise just some candy brand from abroad that we wouldn’t know


I’m feeling good about lollipop

Sorry it took so long; I got sidetracked by pirate and mascots and Christmas for too long and forgot all about rancher when those didn’t pan out

Once I remembered rancher it clicked

Other c5 that would get it immediately is Chupa or Chups

I think those are the ones that would whistle from my childhood

Not sure how well known they are

It’s been 2 days and now I wanna know if this is right so gonna bold this evening if you don’t have any other ideas soon

Really think if this is wrong then we need another clue

lollipop seagull

Oh come the **** on

Good job

And yeah, my c5 was for chupa/chups which I'm pretty sure is by far the biggest lollipop brand in the world.

Nice; dunno why I got off of jolly rancher so fast when it was first thought for jolly…great clue

I must admit I just listened to all 3 pitch perfect movies 2 days ago driving home on road trip but I don’t think that counts as research…I think my daughter who hadn’t seen them before so watched in her seat was disturbed by how well I knew the movies lol

But that didn’t help me get it; just gave me a guess for m4

Round 11:

Cards used: 11

E9 seems prettay prettay good, with f4 as confirmer.

Yeah, e9 seems pretty solid

Works for me

HOW?!

Yeah my M4 was Mika, he has a song called Lollipop and C5 was Chupa

M3 was man, lollipop man are called crossing guards over there I think

E9

Does not seem bad indeed

explosive

Diarrhoea

NEXT!

My first thought was tnt but I like that

F4 fart

lol I was joking but would be funny if it's actually right

Only other word I can think of is dynamite but can't think of an F4 for it

No C4 (Taio Cruz for the song but maybe not well known)

The Board:

EF | A | IH | C | T | C | M


normal use of explosive:
dynamite
TNT
bomb
detonation
c4
canon
grenade
missile
etc

but they said explosive, not explosives; and also said explosive not explosion...

and you'd think they'd want to differentiate between the list above with more confirmers...

f4 could be fire, which hits cannon better than the others I think

no Army or Military or Marines etc. to put us on the missile/grenade/bazooka line of words
no A6 for Alfred Nobel; pretty well known he invented dynamite
no AC/DC for TNT


removing dynamite/tnt and grenade/missile/etc we are left with cannon and bomb

no a3 for arm for bomb or opposite a3 for disarm bomb
no atomic for bomb means bomb should be out


for diarrhea, no opposite constipation, no feces, no ass, no flush, etc.

No A6 Aileen for Cannon but maybe they just weren't thinking of the name possibility

no A9 artillery either
