I've done spymaster before in a few games, but not many. So if either Fish or Felissan feel more confident in doing so and wanna try, they can take it, otherwise I don't mind doing it.

I would also like to exercise my right to be a field operative, if that's okay with my fellow red teammates. :]

For the extra rules, I vote no on the compound word and proper name expansions, yes on the acronyms and abbreviations, homonyms, and rhymes.

I agree on the rules Flicker is down for. Also zero and unlimited clues I like.

That's Formerfish as spymaster for the blue team.

Need three more votes in favor of allowing acronyms, abbreviations, homonyms, and rhymes as clues. (Zero and unlimited I found useful and allow at all times.) If compounds and proper names (
edited to add:
that aren't already legal from other rules) get one more explicit nay, then they are guaranteed to be banned.

That's the left column of the flexible rules box voted down. Waiting for the others to come in and give their input.

The right column of the flexible rules box will be in play, then. Charles510 will be the spymaster for the red team as I do not see anybody contesting him for that role.

The key cards will go out shortly, and once I have sent them out, the game will begin.

I'm thinking Ghost for sure, maybe Aztec? Life could also be a thing as an opposite but related kind of clue. Dunno if he's the kind of guy to pull a tricky thing like that, but I might.

Chick, Bug, and Rabbit could be things that could possibly die. I thought "Dead Point" meant something. You can "
play
dead". Sub is also something to consider if many of our other options fail.

I vote Ghost and Play as things to consider for our first guess.

I am not making any actual guesses at this time

Play is a weird choice to tie to dead. Like there's much better ways to deal with that one. I feel like as someone who had played this, he'd be trying to do the clever thing of finding the easiest way to connect as many words as possible without it being a stretch. And if he wanted to go for Chick, Bug, and Rabbit, he could have said something about them being animals. Dead is a weird choice for those as well.

I personally agree with Ghost and Play, but I don't see what else could be related.
