alexander graham bell invented the telephone (I think?)
you can play games on your phone
phones are like little robots
phones have a battery life
phones have wires, which are kind of like tubes?
kids have phones
telephone and telescope are both things that are used for distance (distance talking, distance seeing)?

Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
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?

BELL is slang for a phone call
ROBOT phone, machinery etc...
GAME mobile games
TUBE phones probably have tubes in them
APPLE make phones

Apple > Robot > Game > Tube ?

This can’t be right? Don’t both teams get the same number of words?

I just looked and have tried not to read other posts but my thoughts are:

BELL -> STRING -> TUBE / LIFE

logic:

Bell — a telephone can sound like a ringing bell?
String — like wire
Tube — is there an expression like “heard it on the tubes”? Or am I nicking that from a sci-fi show or something? Unsure on this
Life — phone a friend is a lifeline in who wants to be a millionaire and idk what else phone could clue

Okay gonna look at what y’all said now

I think robot is a little loose for my taste?

Apple is a good point, but also seems like the sort of thing Farren could easily overlook the connection with (as I did and I think lili did initially too?) so while I think it’s got good chances I’d prefer not to lead with it

I like game over tube/string I think

I think we probably shouldn’t guess life if nobody else thought of that but if we hit neutral we could revisit it maybe

I think I like BELL -> GAME -> APPLE -> ROBOT/TUBE having read

I think Bell should be an earlier pick than game. I like robot because of robo-calls. Apple's also decent (not something I would have thought of, but then, I don't have a cell phone, so my first thought was with land lines). I think I'm at BELL->ROBOT->APPLE->TUBE/GAME

I'd slightly alter Marashu's list and go BELL > APPLE > ROBOT > GAME, leaving TUBE off. I think TUBE is too much of a stretch this early; I associate the term more with CRT televisions or YouTube more than telephones. STRING is worth revisiting if one of those four is not ours, though.
