Forgot to update who the field operatives are in the table;
look at post #1093 while I get around to fixing it.
Fixed.
Or thought they were xD Had the field operatives of each team switched. Post #1093 is authoritative as to who's on what team if you need confusion cleared up :P

I like torch for sure.

Maybe cycle like the light cycles from Tron?

Maybe cast? Like cast a light on something? Or it it only shadows you can cast?

I think torch and cycle are best.

Torch is too obvious to not be one of the two words indeed.

Cycle sounds unlikely, since references are a very high-risk low-reward play. I'm thinking Cast too for this one, with Bolt being the only semi-likely alternative imo.

Torch first.

I like bolt and novel most of everything else after torch.

Torch


Thinking about it from a spymaster's perspective, Torch + Novel wouldn't make Light stand out enough clue to be used on the first turn. I'm still in favor of Cast as our second guess.

Casting a light is a very common synonym of shining a light on something.

I agree with cast. None of the other choices seem as likely.

A bolt as well, like a bolt on a door.

Maybe button? Some doors and stuff are opened by buttons, an elevator for example.

I looked at drill too. It would be #5 for me. The others just make more sense to me.

TW can guess when he comes on if he'd like. I'm good with

Key> bottle> button> bolt
