Codenames (Game 65 in progress)

Sun Feb 02, 2020 7:49 am

Scientist yes. I don't know how I feel about train for that one tbh. I get your reasons, but mm. Or fighter for that matter. Glove is a possibility, cuz I'm tho king like prevention and that sort of thing. Nothing is super obvious to me as being the second tbh and I also don't know that I want to risk a guess just yet. I kinda want to play this a touch more conservative and let the other teams clue eliminate some words for us, as well as give us another clue to grab more words with that hopefully won't be covered by this last clue. Does that seem reasonable?

Sun Feb 02, 2020 10:04 am

Oh I know what Mena is referring to and I am impressed, and as I thought, it is helpful guys.

Mon Feb 03, 2020 9:22 am

Hmmmm. Buffalo is a prey animal? I am not completely sure.

Mon Feb 10, 2020 4:25 pm

It could have been hinting for church, yeah. I'm not actually sure what else we got =/

Fri Feb 14, 2020 3:54 am

Okay, fine. I'll in <3

Sun Feb 16, 2020 3:00 pm

Fortnight could easily count. Weed and song are good.

Mon Feb 17, 2020 4:08 am

I feel like what i know about Jumbles, he might be calling out the video game. It's a possibility is all. I think weed first though?

Wed Feb 19, 2020 2:55 am

I regret Fortnite. But idk if regret is an annoyance. Like, idk.. feels like a stretch in the wrong kind of way.

Wed Feb 19, 2020 3:06 am

Song still isn't bad. Goblins could be seen as an annoyance? but meh. I feel like we're reaching on everything.

If you have a goblin in your blood, you may wanna see a doctor about that mate.

Thu Feb 20, 2020 5:37 pm

Zone, Buffalo, and Charger all stick out to me. I don't know sports enough to have anything else be obvious.

Thu Feb 20, 2020 6:12 pm

Oh duh. That's a very good one.

Sat Feb 22, 2020 11:07 am

Zone > kneel

Sat Feb 22, 2020 11:19 am

Talk to me about race dweller, how's that connect to football?

Charger(s) are a NFL team. As are Buffalo (Bills), which is why I mentioned it.

Oh dude I realized how it looked almost instantly afterwards. It would be very very fair.

Sun Feb 23, 2020 5:29 am

Lol no, I know you meant the verb race, dweller. I just wasn't 100% sure how you meant it here.

Sun Feb 23, 2020 8:01 am

Speak for yourself

I'm still really not sure, but I think going with Song might be worth a try?

Sun Feb 23, 2020 8:44 am

Thank you, thank you *curtsies*

Tue Feb 25, 2020 1:17 pm

Menaaaaa, come be an honorary red <3

Fri Feb 28, 2020 6:36 am

Beanstalk definitely. But maybe sprinkler?

Fri Feb 28, 2020 6:11 pm

But but

Mon Mar 02, 2020 8:27 am

Tbh, I'd have been okay with the answer actually being goblin. Just watching your insistence of it being goblin made me laugh a lot.

Mon Mar 02, 2020 11:08 am

Oh yes please, I'll /in again to play with Mena

Tue Mar 10, 2020 12:05 pm

Bill and degree?

Fri Mar 13, 2020 10:03 am

Okay then!

Bill

Sat Mar 14, 2020 7:26 pm

Sorry! Been busy, we only had a 2, right? So we should probably pass.

Mon Mar 16, 2020 2:17 pm

Pipe, iron, car.

Bell and yeah slug as in bullet isn't terrible.

Tue Mar 24, 2020 5:25 pm

Traitor!
(I still love you)

Mon Mar 30, 2020 2:17 pm

I think you're right about wind too.

Thu Apr 09, 2020 3:51 am

/in

Also sorry

Fri Jun 05, 2020 10:41 am

I'll followup with Pine, and if he's willing to switch, I'll make it happen

Sun Jun 07, 2020 6:32 pm

Mod rights have been switched over to Menalque. Thank you for running this before Pine <3

Sun Jun 14, 2020 7:37 pm

/in for next, but like ping me or something <3

Mon Jun 15, 2020 5:57 pm

I'd like to team with CM1 plz. And I'd like to guess this time.

Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:40 am

Boom for sure. Not sure about anything else.

Sun Jun 21, 2020 12:25 pm

Hasch lives in Oregon, but he would know a bit about what goes on with Seattle probably. And the team was SuperSonics. Which uh may have been involved with march madness in the past? But I am not sure on that.

Sun Jun 21, 2020 2:34 pm

Why Boom last? That one feels the most correct. I'm not against the other options there but I'd rather do that one first.

Tue Jun 23, 2020 7:30 am

Force just... seems right. I don't like how far you have to reach for any of the basketball connotations, so i'd like to hold off on those for now.

Fri Jun 26, 2020 8:14 pm

Lol. That's definitely whale, and probably telescope? Cetus is a constellation known as the whale.

Sun Jun 28, 2020 5:24 am

Were they NBA? For some reason I thought they were NCAA. I take back the suggestion of March then. I really don't know.

Sun Jun 28, 2020 8:40 am

Knowing how Haschel gives clues, I feel like he'd have given a larger clue if we hadn't said words he was aiming for with his first, and that at worst maybe we'd hit neutral, but certainly not assassin.

I'm fine to roll the dice on board.

Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:33 pm

Lol, we're doing so well guys. Gold star to us.

Thu Jul 02, 2020 7:41 am

Hi sorry, I would have agreed with those for the record, had a couple busy days. Lemme take a look over our options here.

Okay for my own sanity so it's on the right page and looking correct.

Words unguessed: Cold, Phoenix, Pan, Wake, Lap, Germany, Paste, Berlin, Eagle, Spider, Novel
Our Clues: Retreat Unlimited, Supersonics 3, Cetus 2
Their Clues: Granite 2, Wear 3. We gave them Force and Board. Their clues are likely complete.

Cetus is a complete clue, retreat probably is too. Supersonics, definitely not.

Hm, Eagle as a team name like Supersonics is looking a bit better to me. But I'm not sure I like anything else outside of that.

Thu Jul 02, 2020 2:53 pm

Wake for which though and why? Eagle definitely feels decent.

Thu Jul 02, 2020 3:02 pm

Honestly at this point everything is a stretch, but that's a stretch I don't instantly hate, so sure. But Eagle first?

Sun Jul 05, 2020 6:58 pm

Booooo.

/in but specifically to be teammates with brighteningskies

Sun Jul 05, 2020 8:05 pm

You're going dooooooown, muahahaha!

Tue Jul 07, 2020 4:34 pm

Anybody else want some of this popcorn while we watch the overanalysis gang have at it? Can't wait for them to overthink their way into the assassin.

Thu Jul 09, 2020 3:24 pm

Lilith with the ballsy 4 play, I love it.

Bridge obviously. Fork for Forklift? Ball for Wrecking Ball is also good. I could see Robot if you squint a little. Crash isn't that bad either. and I see what you mean about Orange.

Thu Jul 09, 2020 4:52 pm

I don't think I like Sink for Construction at all. Dunno why, it just feels.. wrong.

Thu Jul 09, 2020 6:55 pm

Well I'd like to leave alone as it was a word the other team was looking at. So it's not one we have to touch this first round of guessing.

Sun Jul 12, 2020 9:21 am

Perhaps not, but I'd rather they are who finds out it isn't rather than us find out that it is.

Mon Jul 13, 2020 8:32 pm

Let's go orange.

Tue Jul 14, 2020 3:04 pm

Hm. I don't feel super confident about Robot, even though we all can see it as a maybe. I think maybe we list things in order of confidence rather than just what does everyone have.

For me it goes Crash>Fork/Ball>Robot. The more I look at it, the more I like crash, so I'm fine with it being much higher. Robot is a stretch by a lot imo,

Tue Jul 14, 2020 4:27 pm

Even if Crash isn't right, I don't think that should discount Ball as an option later. If the clue was Crash, then yes, I agree, but it's not sooooo.

Sat Jul 18, 2020 6:47 am

Not that any of you would be the kind of abominations that do use it, Mena, you're gonna wanna make sure that yellow isn't garbage on sepia. Unless of course you're trying to hint super strongly that they should use any other skin, in which case I'm completely behind you.

Mon Jul 20, 2020 8:13 am

Hm, well I think Lilith means Tiana like Princess and the Frog, but the only one that pings me is Ball.

Tue Jul 21, 2020 7:51 pm

Ball as in dance, yeah.

Concert is a possibility maybe but like I don't think so. I'm honestly not sure at all what any of this could possibly be hinting at.

Sat Jul 25, 2020 3:08 pm

Bowler definitely is Ball and Pin and Leprechaun, so we start there, and then look at the other words we were considering?

Mon Aug 03, 2020 7:22 am

Hell yeah, we did it. Might in for next, but not til I'm back home again.

Thu Aug 13, 2020 10:50 am

Oh, blue is a person down, yeah sure, I'll jump in to even it up.

Thu Aug 13, 2020 10:51 am

Will wait for confirmation on that being okay before I contribute actual discussion though.

Thu Aug 13, 2020 12:29 pm

Okay cool. So

I agree that Greece, Rome, Europe are all good. Shakespeare I also like. I actually think you're on the right track with Figure. I could see a if you squint Disease, cuz like medical history kind of deal, but that's definitely a stretch.

Fri Aug 14, 2020 12:09 pm

Yeah I'm down with that.

Fri Aug 14, 2020 7:12 pm

I'm all for do Europe, then pass.

Tue Aug 18, 2020 9:38 pm

I'd much rather do Figure than Log. I get why but I'm not feeling Log.

Fri Aug 28, 2020 8:53 am

Acre is absolutely square and field.

Sat Aug 29, 2020 3:10 pm

Just lemme know and I can shift thread powers again if need be <3

Tue Sep 01, 2020 10:12 am

Okay! Shifting stuff over, just ping me at any point if it needs to go elsewhere <3

Great job there Blue Team, that 6 was amazing and really well done!!!
I think Orange might be too similar to red. Maybe yellow?

One of the problems with using yellow, or orange for that matter, is sometimes it can be terrible to read on mafSepia, and as much as discouraging the usage of that skin is something I stand behind, we probably want to make sure whatever shades are used aren't an assault upon the eyes.

But also, /in.

Mena! <3

Thu Oct 01, 2020 6:30 am

Loch Ness possibly? I do not want it to be dwarf. I agree with your other thoughts there.

Thu Oct 01, 2020 7:32 am

Idk, that's like a complete sidestep and I'm not too sure it would be that. Places where animals would be feels like too much of a stretch when there's two very obvious ones and a third closely enough related. You're probably not wrong Pooky that if he was cluing for those 3, creature is a word that would have worked much more strongly, but sometimes the best word for a group isn't always the first word you can think of that serves the same purpose.

Thu Oct 01, 2020 7:44 am

Well, no. But you could squint and consider monsters to be animals.

Thu Oct 01, 2020 12:43 pm

True enough. I always forget Loch Ness is a lake myself >.>

Sat Oct 03, 2020 12:52 pm

Okay well, it does seem we're basically all in agreement, so..

Octopus > Penguin

Let's discuss whether we toss in a Loch Ness to follow.

Sat Oct 03, 2020 9:05 pm

I'm good to pass, cuz we hold on to that one for a later round.

Tue Oct 13, 2020 6:53 am

Oof, rip.

Mon Oct 19, 2020 8:26 am

Uh.. no.. He was telling us that Switzerland WASN'T one of our words, so that isn't one.

Mon Oct 19, 2020 11:21 am

As long as it turns into a wrong guess, I'm fine with your thoughts Mizzy

Wed Oct 21, 2020 6:26 am

I saw Pooky vent.

/in for this game, but specifically in for Mizzy's team if that's next game or whenever

Wed Oct 21, 2020 6:45 am

Thu Oct 22, 2020 12:36 am

Compound yes. I wanna say microscope so bad but that might not be it. Oil and plastic are idk, maybe.

Thu Oct 22, 2020 5:46 am

"Maybe it's chemistry in a sexy way" Lilith, I love you.

But yeah, I'm good with the science angle first.

Fri Oct 23, 2020 4:06 am

I really wanna go microscope first. Then like plastic

Fri Oct 23, 2020 7:09 am

Yeah actually, there's quite a bit of looking at different compounds and stuff with microscopes. Like the various polarized light ones and all, and like electron microscopes.

Fri Oct 23, 2020 7:11 am

No worries <3

Microscope

Fri Oct 23, 2020 7:45 am

I think I want to pass. Since there's a bunch of possibilities that aren't super strong, we might be best off saving it for the next round.

Fri Oct 23, 2020 8:03 am

I mean maybe.. but I'm also just super wary of it.

Sat Oct 24, 2020 6:29 am

Yeah, lilith gets why I wanna pass. Aldo Jake, the green is gecause its not a team anybody is on. It's an intentional choice. Please follow the rules.

Sat Oct 24, 2020 7:08 am

Oh I like having the thing on the bottom.

Sat Oct 24, 2020 10:21 am

Chemist had already said she was cool if we passed.

Sat Oct 24, 2020 11:47 am

Okay then!

Pass

Mon Oct 26, 2020 9:12 am

Chick like... Chicken soup?

Mon Oct 26, 2020 4:32 pm

No I think Charles is right about Fly in Soup here. Didn't even catch that at first. I'd like to go Stock, then Fly.

Thu Oct 29, 2020 7:03 am

I think fly is better.

Wed Nov 04, 2020 7:03 pm

I'm into it.

Sun Nov 15, 2020 10:58 am

Hey good job guys. Sorry, have been a little under the weather.

Sat Jan 02, 2021 3:38 pm

I believe in you Datisi <3

Wed Sep 29, 2021 3:58 pm

Yes agreed

Thu Sep 30, 2021 3:25 pm

It's really up to CM1 how he wants to handle that. Since Mish Mash games typically don't have set deadlines or timeframes, if game mods want to just wait for a ban to expire before continuing on with their game, that is a valid option they have.

Fri Oct 08, 2021 2:49 am

I feel no shame, but my partner, you can shame him for having an actual life. It's all his fault. I am blameless and have done nothing wrong.

Fri Oct 08, 2021 3:24 am

Lol, i've had enough free time for Codenames, that's all I'm saying

Sat Oct 09, 2021 11:57 am

Some of us learned that the hard way

Sat Oct 30, 2021 1:46 pm

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees I knew we were last and that part of it would be relevant to the one thing i didn't see in the rules anywhere. Love that for us.

Sat Oct 30, 2021 1:53 pm

I'm well aware. It just started us on a downward trajectory is all I'm sayin.

Thu Sep 08, 2022 4:27 pm

Yep, done. If it's mish mash related, those questions go to me.
