Codenames (Game 65 in progress)

[OkaPoka]

as in i can see bar fitting more clues than something like brush or link

since we are playing to win and not to get close

i think more win conditions open by us going for brush/link

unless we can prove that there is enough doubt on brush/link

[Menalque]

I feel better on brush than on link but I don’t think we should guess until datisi gets here

Idk I see your point but I think you may be overthinking it

[Datisi]

Pupil and thumb sound real obvious to me so fine with that

Tbh both brush/link and bar sound kinda okay since we still got 3 clues there right?

Feel free to submit whichever one you two feel best on

[OkaPoka]

so we are scrapping the dragon idea?

[Datisi]

I had never heard about steel dragons before this game so. If it makes sense to you two go for it, but i obviously don't know?

[Menalque]

Let’s just go one by one this time though yeah

[Menalque]

If dragon is one I imagine pine can give us a clue that more clearly links to it if any or brush/link/bar are wrong

[OkaPoka]

i dont believe in the steel dragon

i believe in brush/link/bar

odds are next clue is going to be the last clue so pine will say x infinity

if we get three right this turn

we have three left on the board

two of which we probably know

so he only needs to give us one

okay winnable

[OkaPoka]

here is an idea worth considering

submit nothing

either way pine's next clue is going to be for one thing

we want to maximize the odds that other team misses and either way we will have unlimited guesses for our final turn for us to win

[Menalque]

Whats the math here? If we go now and get all 3 correct then they need to get 3/15 to win

If not then they have to get 3/18 to win

So that’s a 20% raw vs 16.6% recurring raw

Idk I’m not convinced us going now even if we get them all right helps them that much plus if we have got one wrong and we don’t release (I’m iffy on the steel clues) then we’re done-zo

[OkaPoka]

then lets do the steel clues only and save pupil and thumb for later

[OkaPoka]

bar -> brush -> link>

[Menalque]

Okay, but let’s wait and check datisi agreed with that plan

[Datisi]

I like 3232
Though how sure are we in link/brush/bar?

Pedit: agreed, hit it

[OkaPoka]

ill let mena submit since he seems least yes to the plan

[Menalque]

bar

[Menalque]

I’m yes to the plan I just wanted to make sure it was unanimous

[Pine]

bar

Blue

[OkaPoka]

brush

[Pine]

Blue

[OkaPoka]

link

[StrangerCoug]

BRUSH	LASER	RACKET	DRAGON	DIAMOND
THUMB	LIGHT	BELT	ROULETTE	PUPIL
LINK	REVOLUTION	BAR	CYCLE	ROW
CLUB	DEGREE	SATELLITE	POLE	SHADOW
BEACH	ROOT	ROME	SPIDER	GLOVE

Team	Spymaster	Field operatives
Red team	Haschel Cedricson	KittyMo, Formerfish, xofelf
Blue team	Pine	Menalque, Datisi, OkaPoka

That exhausts the number of guesses blue may make this turn, so it goes to red.

[Haschel Cedricson]

WEIGHT 0

[xofelf]

Oh that's interesting. We get as many guesses as we want here, but none of the right words have anything to do with weight. So I think that's saying that we've said all the words which are ours already.

[KittyMo]

i don't get how anything on the board particular relates to weight so clearly I'm missing something
