Codenames (Game 66 in progress)

[biancospino]

gg all!

Spoiler: postmortem

Apocalypse (4):

Horse, War, Disease (as in the first two horsemen), Atlantis (because of the apocalyptic sinking. Yeah, maybe a bit of a stretch)

Hippocampus (2):

Horse, Atlantis

Iron (3):

Copper, Ball, Cold (as in Coldiron, mithical metal Fairies and Ghosts are weak to)

Prop (2):

Shakespeare, Ball

or

Whip (the reason it was not a 3 clue is because I screwed up. The intent was that you'd recuperate Cold and Ball for Iron, then you'd get Shakespeare and Whip [as it was basically the only object likely to be used as a prop remaining] for the clue; but I forgot that you had at most N+1 guesses)

Winter (1):

Cold (If RED would have gone for CHANGE, I would have clued BLOOD -- 2 for Cold, Whip)

/in for any role

[DragonEater70]

The last red word was Limousine. And Thumb was the assassin

Nooooo you kidding?

Welp I guess we did give it the good ol' college try.

[DragonEater70]

congrats blue, you rocked it!! good try from us- Whemestar and Dragon you are great partners. What was our last damn word lol?

Seconded, I enjoyed playing with you.

/in as operative or spymaster.

I knew it! I knew both Horse and Atlantis were apocalypse words!

Also, I knew cold was related to iron.

For me:
I was impressed that you got Deceased 3 for Shot, Hospital and Ghost - I wasn't really happy with it since I knew Cold, Disease and Shakespeare all linked as well. So well done on that.
Next clue, Pursue 3, was for Tag, Charge and Limousine - again I knew it was a bit of a stretch (although I thought Charge would be the hardest word to get!)
With Finger 0 I was half hoping that you might click the body parts other than Thumb, although that might have been too ambitious as we haven't played before
And Anatomy 2 was just for Mouth and Spine, hoping you might go back to Limousine for Pursue

PUNISHMENT - 3

[Farren]

Spoiler: Punishment ...

COURTs punish people.
BEATing someone is worthy of punishment.
WHIP: scourging is used as a punishment.
PIRATEs both punish and are deserving of punishment.
DEATH is the ultimate punishment.

COURT is probably my favorite here. Maybe WHIP as the second?

[WhemeStar]

My top 3 are whip beat and court

You can pick the order

[WhemeStar]

Maybe death more than beat

[Farren]

Guess: COURT

Guess: WHIP

Those were my top two, in that order. Let's see what that does first.

[Cat Scratch Fever]

COURT is

RED

BANK	TEMPLE	IRON	ANGEL	BEAT

casino 3

[Merlyn]

oh dang! I would have guessed court too honestly.

Spoiler: ideas

gotta be luck. Maybe bank and gold after that?

[biancospino]

Spoiler:

S tier: LUCK
A tier: BANK (I think the house is also called

bank

in some player-vs-house games? Idk, I never went into a casinò)
B tier: GOLD (because money?), ALPS (because Monaco and Campione d'Italia are both near the Alps)

[Merlyn]

okay we're pretty much on the same page here. Wanna go for luck and bank in that order?

[biancospino]

Yeah sure

LUCK

BANK

[Cat Scratch Fever]

LUCK is

RED

BANK is NEUTRAL

SPY - 2

[Farren]

Spoiler: Spy vs Spy

AGENT and MOLE immediately come to mind here. CHINA is also a possibility.

At this point, I'd do something like AGENT > WHIP to start with, then figure out which of MOLE / CHINA / BEAT / DEATH / etc. is more likely to yield something positive.

[WhemeStar]

Lock in Agent

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Agent is

BLUE

[WhemeStar]

Whip
