Now taking sign ups for Game 37!
Jake The Wolfie v StrangerCoug
Current pre-ins:
dsjstr

After this match we'll have: Charles510 v Sirius9121, lemme know if you wanna sign up as a spymaster and again there's an offer out there if anyone is new at being a spymaster and wants to give it a try

What did people think of the time limit rules?
Personally I think it helped keep the game moving along and unless there's any objections I'm going to make it as a main rule

I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

This is what I'll use as the official ruling for the timer, is everyone cool with this?

If a guess is made after the elapsed time but before the opposing spymaster posts a clue then the guess will be valid.

I'd suggest a slight change to the timer rules:

72 hours initially
+24 hours to the timer with every correct guess
Timer pauses while waiting for guesses to be confirmed.

That way there's no punishment for making an easy guess early.

If it helps I would have guessed Piano and shadow because of Moonlight Sonata

I also thought of Moonlight Sonata, but was struggling to figure it if it was pointing to shadows (due to the light) or smugglers (due to being active in the moonlight).

Assuming GRACE / SOUND / UNDERTAKER / WAKE are off the board ...

DATE's a gimme. I can see PANTS. PIANO's a stretch, but a plausible one. Maaaaaybe OIL, as an even bigger stretch?

Problem there is NURSE - soap operas are a thing. I'd probably go NURSE over any of the other red words remaining.

Mercury and shadow seem very reachy for me there and the problem was that I couldn’t come up with any 4s where the remaining 4 would fit together
