[Farren]

Congrats to the red team!

I'll do my usual /in-only-if-needed-to-even-out-the-teams bit.

/in sorry pooky

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

nothing more beautiful than the agony of defeat :3

Farren was on fire. Our psychic bond was strong :>

[Horsewoman]

I'm not sure Horsewoman is aware she's playing and I don't want us to get prodded while I'm on the bus back to San Antonio, so let's go for it.

HORN > LAP

Yep I.......was not aware lmao. Seems like you did well, nice job.

/i already inned?

[CreativeMod1]

Got ya in I've got everyone in who has inned

We seem to have quite big teams so I'm thinking of changing rules slightly on deadlines/times, effectively what tends to happen with bigger teams is a lot of people waiting for everyones opinions and sometimes 1 person isn't around to give an opinion so here's what I'm gonna say:

72 hours from when a clue is first given to have the first word guessed and then 24 hours per future word guessed
This should help keep the flow of the game up, even when I'm not around so much

What's everyone's thoughts on this?

Also, for future spymasters, after Lilth v Menalque we have Jake v Stranger,
If you wanna sign up as a spymaster then lemme know, also if you wanna specifically face off against someone in particular then again lemme know.

I'm also thinking, we tend to have the same spymasters going round and I'd love to encourage new spymasters, if you've never spymaster'd before and wanna try it but nervous, I'd be happy to pair you with an experienced spy master who can talk you through ideas for words and stuff. Or I could face you off against someone else who is new so it doesn't feel like as much pressure

Terrible idea:
Secret agents on both teams, who are trying to get their side to victory.

I approve of this.

What happens if a timer runs out? Prod? Forced pass? Instant loss?

sounds interesting

[Sirius9121]

/queue spymaster

[StrangerCoug]

What happens if a timer runs out? Prod? Forced pass? Instant loss?

When I ran it, failing to respond to a prod in time meant a forced pass. Not sure how CreativeMod1 plans to do it now.

[CreativeMod1]

What happens if a timer runs out? Prod? Forced pass? Instant loss?

Instant loss? :O hahahahaha
Only for your team Farren

Forced Pass will be the ruling.

[CreativeMod1]

GAME 36 START - Blue team to go first

Please note the new rule:
You have 72 hours (3 days) from when a clue is given to guess your first word, from then you have 24 hours for each new guess.
If you go over your time then you could be forced to pass, if the opposing spymaster submits a new clue before a guess is made then it'll count as a forced pass.
If you go over your time but the opposing spymaster hasn't submitted a new clue then a guess will still be valid.

eulogy 4

(should we add timers to our clue posts?)

[Farren]

Hm. Speech given in remembrance of the dead.

UNDERTAKER for the death connection.
WAKE, as in throwing a party to honor the dead.
SOUND, as speech is pure sound?
GRACE, like a prayer given for the dead?

Those'd be my initial thoughts, probably in that order.
