The amount of guesses equals the amount of words the clue was given for, plus one. So if ORAM gives a clue for one word, we can make two guesses. If she gives a clue for three words, we can make four guesses. Etc.

Of note that a clue for 0 words allows for infinite guesses

With youtube, BELL is likely ours. Since there must be a reason why the hint a specific social media like YOUTUBE and there's the whole "please subscribe and ring the bell" thing that youtubers say

Band, Trip, and Theatre all make me think they relate to Youtube. Bell could also maybe work too.

So our current breakdown should be:

Two words that connect to both TWITCH and YOUTUBE.
One word that connects to TWITCH but *not* YOUTUBE.

What's more, we were considering three other words when we bombed out. If we were right on all three, I'd have expected the clue to just be a repeat - TWITCH, 3. That's the simplest, easiest way of saying we're on the right track. It wasn't.

So at least one of TRIP / THEATRE / PISTOL is wrong.

Catch is, everything left still has to connect to TWITCH somehow. If we're supposed to be looking at BELL and/or BAND, how do those connect to Twitch?

why trip for youtube?

I could see bell as a stretch word for twitch - like maybe kyouko thought we would think of words related to other streaming platforms.

BAND I suppose could connect to Twitch in the same way THEATRE does.

if both band and theatre are for twitch, wouldn't they also be for youtube? and in that case, it can't be bell for youtube - but I think bell is the strongest reason to clue youtube and not something else

Could someone explain the whole "ring the bell" thing with Youtube? I mostly use it for music, so I don't ever hear that particular phrase.

There's a bell icon you can click on channels you are subscribed to in order to get notifications about the channel (or so I believe). Many (or perhaps even most) youtubers are going to exhort the viewers to do so at some point in the video

Pretty sure Twitch has a similar system for followed channels.

Yeah, think I'm onboard with BELL now.

At least IMO, YOUTUBE points more towards BAND than THEATRE, given how much of it is given over to music specifically.
