(it's exactly 48 hours from when Haschel said Red!)

I'll give a little prod to The Bulge, just keep in mind that whilst yes it's courteous to have all players agree, the point of the timer was to keep the game moving along even if not all players are checking in. So you are welcome to make a guess without having all players agree to it and if a player hasn't checked in in time and disagrees with it then it's on them for not checking in enough
It’s actually more about hearing from four heads as opposed to just three, so every member of the team’s feedback is important.

\o/

So should we go with buck, kid or try to solve our final “plank” clue which my best guess could be life? Atlantis also possible but because we were given “plank” not “pirate”, it makes me lean to life as our last “plank” clue.

Hopefully Bulge will weigh in on this, since bat was pretty much a slam dunk anyway. It’s also very possible that bat was our final “plank” clue, so probably should go with buck?

I agree with this. I think we should go for an Animal word and not look for another Plank word.

Buck and Kid can both be kinds of animals, but Buck seems most likely to me.

I think we should go with Buck.

Whilst I appreciate it's frustrating not having everyone around, there's not a lot I can do, it's the players responsibility to keep checking in to this game and I'm not gonna force players to do so.

In my opinion Codenames is meant to be a more chilled Mish Mash game and that's one of the perks of having bigger teams.

If people disagree with this then feel free to shoot me a DM and I'll bring it up as a topic of conversation post game and we can look at changing some rules to bring in some prod rules or something. But for now, as it's not in the main rules, I'm not gonna be prodding players on a regular basis, if they're not around to help the team then that's on them.

I understand this but in this particular game, it might possibly disadvantage our team, so I think my concern isn’t unreasonable.

It’s possible it was “bat” but if not, life but if we’re wrong on “life” because blue team guessed all of their clues.

I guess Bulge isn’t going to weigh in here which kinda sucks but if “bat” was our final plank clue, we should probably pass?

Spoiler:
Swiss chocolate
The Swiss Alps made me think of the Himalayas, even though they're not exactly close
A cook to make the chocolate
I think the czech republic is close, but I'm not sure about that one.
I also think there might have been a famous observatory with a telescope in the mountains there, but again, not sure.

I think I'm feeling CHOCOLATE > TELESCOPE > CZECH > COOK > HIMALAYAS

Spoiler:
I swear I've heard of Swiss CHOCOLATE. The only other thing coming to my mind right now that fits anything is Swiss cheese, which would suggest either COOK or STRING. I'd lean COOK over STRING since string cheese, as far as I know, is not made from Swiss cheese.

Spoiler:
my first instinct is swiss chocolate.
swiss is the descriptive form of the nationality, like Czech
I also briefly thought about the alps being like the himalayas
Definitely chocolate first though?

Spoiler:
Chocolate is a lock

Would probably lean Czech of the other options listed, they don't border each other but they're pretty close
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?

I had played with the idea of CZECH myself. It's a stretch in my opinion, but not as far of a stretch to me as my own suggestion of STRING.

chocolate


My thoughts without reading spoilers were also that HIMALAYAS is v likely due to mountains etc, Switzerland doesn’t even have a border with Czech Republic so I think it’s unlikely to be that

I think it’s a bigger leap to go Swiss = nationality, Czech = nationality than Swiss = mountains, Himalayas = mountains but I’ll defer to majority opinion
