Fuck. I think crown is going to be wrong

Formerfish · Post Post #1978 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 7:23 am

It's ok. I think I know the right answer and red needs to get 4 to win.

No, i saw it as soon as i looked back at the board, something about pecked my eye out upon a 2nd look.

ISO · Post Post #1981 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:53 am

Crown is

indeed blue. :-/

Formerfish · Post Post #1983 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:54 am

Fukcign hell, i had to check to make sure i was blue real quick

Ok, so you guys have 3 to go?

popsofctown · Post Post #1985 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:54 am

It might have pecked your eye out but I don't think it flew over your head before all was said and done. That doesn't seem likely, you know what you're doing. And as a formerfish you have all sorts of traumatic past lifes to remember back to right

ISO · Post Post #1986 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:55 am

Indeed.

I thought you're supposed to guess with a specific order, and if the first one is a miss the subsequent one isn't even flipped?

popsofctown · Post Post #1989 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:57 am

Gawain is a character in one of my weaboo card games and he's pretty low rarity so you wouldn't pay more than a buck for him. I am positive that's what you mean so buck will definitely be one of our guess. I'm here to make you proud

ISO · Post Post #1990 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:57 am

Crown was said first, which was correct.

popsofctown · Post Post #1991 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:58 am

I assume it's cheating to wikipedia Gawain because I don't know him from any other mythological knight. or maybe he's even a real knight, I don't even know

popsofctown · Post Post #1992 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 8:58 am

Oh i thought emperor was correct, i got crisscrossed

I thought I had put that life behind me. I thought for once the story was going to end with the guy walking away and just fading into life. If it weren't just so damn trite I might laugh at how life has a way of getting in the middle of our well thought out plans and just blows them all to hell. I thought I had gotten away, I thought it would know to follow me here. I've tried hard to be good, follow the rules, play the game the right way. That itch though. Always present just beyond my conscious knowledge, wiggling just under my skin, but never fading no matter how much or how hard I scratch. The only thing that will assuage my agony would be to give in to the itch, let it wash over me and transform me. I need to forget all of the things that have let me blend in these past 4 years. I need to remember the fish I used to be. Somewhere along the way, people forgot that I was a fucking savage, I think it's about time I remind them why they shouldn't have forgotten in the first place.

You have to guess in a certain order, and HC flipped crown first, which was a correct hit, and then flipped tokyo which was a miss and our turn ended.

I think probably horse is one of them

No idea about the other two

ISO · Post Post #1997 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 2:07 pm

gawain is definitely notable for knighting and swording and horsie, so horsie is probably one of ours.
war feels...increasingly possible. war-rior. i'm p sure gawain would've been involved in war fables with arthur; he is super prominent

sub - can't think of anything to do with the knights.

he's a subordinate of arthur's? idrk

stick i don't see
honey i don't really feel
chest - don't feel it
buck is super obviously one of ours bc of what popsofctown said duh.
club feels wrong.
space feels wrong.
penguin feels wrong.

keep in mind he's said gawain rather than like... lancelot or galahad or even arthur who i'd say would be better known.

popsofctown · Post Post #1999 (ISO) » Mon Jul 22, 2019 2:17 pm

I think maybe it's that Gawain had a romance subplot that triggered honey
