Spoiler: thoughts
Sooooo, don't touch Mole. Probably avoid Sink too.

I feel like Needle and Pilot are the only ones we really have left as guesses for our clues. Maybe Mass for Gauges?

Needle

Pilot
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

I think trunk could be our 4th Nemo clue and theater also fits, so yeah, all sound good. Mole is probably predator but for now, let’s go with trunk, box, theater.

Thanks CSF and Charles.

/in to play again

and still in spymaster queue.

Spoiler:
I’d like to understand what that “0 tunnels” clue was about? I’m thinking maybe Europe, sink or mole was the assassin word and it obviously also confirmed theater was ours.

For those who want to try to figure out the blue team's words, click on this spoiler for my next clue:

Spoiler: My next clue would have been ...
CREATIONISM, 3.


For those who want to know what the heck I was thinking with the zero clue, click on this spoiler (warning: spoils our last three words; if you want to guess first, look at the first spoiler and make your guess before looking at this one):

Spoiler: Seriously, a zero clue?
Our remaining words were: UNICORN, MASS, and KIWI. So I was trying to go with some sort of Christian flavor to hit MASS and then some sort of life connection for UNICORN and KIWI. But MOLEs run afoul of the life connection, and EUROPE isn't quite in the same vein, but there are an awful lot of living things there, as well as some Christians. So, they had to be eliminated. Problem - Red had three words left. So the less information we give them about the board, the better; knowing that MOLE and EUROPE aren't ours doesn't tell them anything helpful. Plus that way I figured our team would go back and hit PILOT and NEEDLE (which they did!) so I could then set up the next clue with the correct number. Alas, we never got the chance; the information denial wasn't enough! Shoulda stuck with ALTIMETER 2 for the opener - or better yet, thought of SPIN 4 sooner than I did.

Sorry I didn't do better,

Europe would neither have triggered for Tunnel-0 or Creationism-3 for me, what was your reasoning there?

Creationism doesn't really connect to Europe IMO, but at the time I gave Tunnel 0 I hadn't yet come up with Creationism. I was coming up with things like Baptismal (too weak for unicorn), Living (too weak for Mass), Benign (too weak for Kiwi). In the world where I try to convince y'all to go for the gold, I also have to fit in one of PILOT / NEEDLE so I can give it as a 4-clue (or risk the Unlimited), and Creationism doesn't really fit with that. LIVING is probably the best one there (hits PILOT easily enough), but Europe is a place where people live, and Mole definitely is a better hit than MASS (and arguably some of the other words as well).

I figured Europe is a place where one could encounter tunnels, for that anti-connection.

What was the assassin word? I would have started off with spin, gauge and life. Life=pilot, unicorn, kiwi, mass, unless Europe was the assassin word? Was it press? Because I thought if not pilot, press could possibly a gauge word.

Life has a weaker connection to Europe than living imo, because living makes you think more of culture than simply life. Story could have tied both mass and unicorn but probably nothing else.

Yeah, but when it comes to the assassin (which was indeed Europe), "weaker" isn't good enough, IMO. Especially early on.

SPIN was probably my best possible opener, and I very much wish I'd thought of it sooner.

Actually, hm. ROTATIONAL might have been better still. Still hits everything I need it to hit *and* has a shot of picking up MASS as well, which was one of the oddball words. ROTATIONAL - 5 (dance/fan/roulette/pilot/mass), POINTY - 2 / Unlimited, ... maybe EGGS - 2 (Kiwi/Platypus) if Dinosaur and Orange are both off the board by then?
