Spoiler:
Scientists work with energy.
Heart is a source of energy.
Organs use energy to keep bodies moving
Vacuums, as an appliance, use energy, but as a concept, is an absence of energy, so I'm not sure about that one.

I'm ok with scientist as a first pick. I hadn't really thought about time. I think I favour heart above time but am not against using time.

Spoiler:
Heart-
In a metaphorical sense, being the energy of the body
Vacuum-
A vacuum cleaner needs energy to work
Night-
Could be sort of seen as the absence of energy
Time-
Time and energy is a phrase

are my initial thoughts, I'm not particularly confident in any of them
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?

We only have a few hours left, so Galaxis can catch up.

I think right now my pick order is HEART >= SCIENTIST > TIME. I'd be ok with VACUUM if everyone else is but it's definitely not one of my top 3, and since this is a 3 clue...

I'd go Heart --> Time --> Vacuum. Would do scientist too

All three of us picked HEART, so that's probably the one we should go with first.

HEART > SCIENTIST > (PASS) is where I am now. Opponents have six words left to go; picking off six clues in a single round is ... extraordinarily difficult.

Okay, you cook ham/stock/organs.

A hotel might hire a cook.

A cook is a profession, much like a scientist.

I think Ham and Stock are most likely.

Should we start with Ham?

should we try to think more about what was in duck or Thor? for overlap/outside of the cook clue

cook might only be cluing like, 1 thing and the unlimited is to let us guess the other clues

Thor - 3: We got Superhero and Bolt. Possibilities for the third word could be Jupiter or Cloak maybe. I'm not very confident on either.

Duck - 5: We got Eagle. Maybe Bolt was double-clued for Thor and Duck. I'm kind of stumped what the other duck words could be after we got Phoenix and Ball wrong.

I think our best bet is to guess the cook words first.

I like Ham > Stock

Thor was a god of thunder. I think Jupiter was also a god of thunder. That's my best guess so far.

That's actually not bad. I'd support that over any of the other weak connections so far.

If we pass we lose; they have two left.

Maybe bat, since ducks and bats both fly?
