There's a small chance that it's Cross too, like crossing a river or crossing the ocean. Don't think it's as likely as some other options though

Ice should definitely be the first guess imo. After that I'm a little waffle-y

Sorry Homura and dsjstr for the quick guess. Wanna keep the game moving at a good pace.

I am sure you guys would have agreed on ICE too.

I hope?

Yeah,

I think the order goes:

ICE > Tail > Fire > Cross > Well

:D

Nice!

On serious note, are we okay with he next guess being WELL?

I think that's the most possible.

I had the idea that something like TEMPERATURE would've been a more natural clue if it were really just Fire and Ice. Possible that I'm overthinking it though

I'm liking Well more than Fire and Cross rn, but I'd like to hear from the other team members before we guess on this one

Bounce, I think it is only the two of us left in the blue team.

We have to make it through this challenging times...

Guess: WELL


Since both of us think it's the most probable choice.

Blue!

Also, guessing another works like normal — you may hit blue, red, neutral (in which case the turn ends and the other team get to go) or assassin in which case you lose and the game ends.

Real players would take the shot and guess blind, I mean, what are the odds they lose outright? If they dont guess more they will lose eventually regardless.

If I don’t hear in let’s say 24 hrs I’ll assume that it’s passed and the turn will change back to red

embassy, china, moscow

maybe capital but i feel like this clue is a way to point to those 3 without hitting capital

Xtoxm is consistently great - Shosin

i think all of {embassy, china, moscow, capital} should be at worst neutral with a clue like this. so i wanna press 3 this round, and in that order, i think.

{moscow, capital, embassy} we can rule out, easier clues - any capital that isnt in china.
{china, capital, embassy} this actually seems tricky to clue for, so i could see it being this, with then moscow being like a neutral. i still rank it below {embassy, china, moscow}

if 2 or more of these end up not being correct then i could see, like, block being a reference to coup. but that seems to be getting obscure.

Moscow is a capital, this is confusing.

It could be court, court as in the king's court, that is where a medeival ambassador would interact with a king, every bit as much as an embassy
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
