You've already gotten a clue this turn - POOL 4.

Your turn ends when any of the following happen:

1) Your team guesses any word that is *not* Red.
2) Your team guesses
five
words that are Red. (FENCE and ROUND both count towards this limit. Five specifically because Sirius gave "4" as part of his clue; guesses = number of the clue plus one).
3) Your team passes.

Once any of those happens, The Bulge gets to give us (the Blue Team) a clue, and it's our turn to start guessing.

Sirius cannot legally give you a clue right now.
This is correct! Thank you :)

Heating- Gas, Pool
Breve- Note,
Pole- Fence, Round,

We’ve had 10 clues so we’ve had at least one word double clued

We have 4 to find

India is possible for Heating. As it’s a warm country
Cat possible for pole
Theatre I thought could go with Breve but if Opera wasn’t then I’m more skeptical of theatre but theatre could also be clued by heating as theatres have heating
Is there such a thing as a pole bug? I’ve never heard of one but I’m struggling for a final word

Round could have been clued by breve too since you can sing in a round. That could be our double clued word

Oh and Battery was another possibility for heating, maybe for pole too since they can be pole shaped but that seems tenuous

Sophisticated makes me think of limousine/theater. and maybe like, duck is seen as a fancy protein at high-end restaurants?
Biotics 4 - {lab}, bug, compound, ?
Status 4 - {king, game} I think battery was a status word and the last word might be covered by another clue. We should have some quite a bit of overlap between sophisticated and our remaining clues from status and biotics.

so best guesses for our remaining four words:
limousine, theater for sure
maybe bug or compound for biotics, but at least one of them has to also be related to sophisticated.
changed my mind about duck because it has to relate to biotics or status in addition to sophisticated
maybe it’s web? That feels like it could be vaguely connected to sophisticated, like the internet is very sophisticated technology

so limousine/theater/web/bug?

we need 8 words, and the three clues cover 11 of them, right? so we have overlap.

i thought of rose for sophisticated. but agreed limousine and theater definitely sound like sophisticated words. and bug feels like a leftover from biotics (considering lab was a hit).

err, not sure if overlapped words add up then... i'm kinda tired and not in the mindset for Thinking About Words, i'll look at this more closely after lunch.

my thoughts without looking at what you guys said were: definitely LIMOUSINE, probably THEATRE, and the third that came to me was ROSE but it could also be OLIVE

I'd like to go LIMOUSINE and THEATRE, and then BUG from biotics

then we consider if we try to win this round or if we leave the pressure on them and get an easy 1 clue win next turn

I think LIMOUSINE has been clued twice now, under status and under sophisticated, which means that I think all our status words are done, leaving only 3 for sophisticated and 2 from biotics -- I don't see anything that makes sense as overlapping between sophisticated and biotics
"we knew everything... And we knew nothing."
