Actually the wording of the unlimited thing suggests that if the team leader says ":2" then the players can't carry on guessing once they've guessed twice.

Anyway, come up with answers, blue team!

Bond, Atlantis
Pie

Why would you say 2 if you're saying unlimited?

Coz there's no limits.

Alright. We've got cap, hood, ketchup, and time for crust. Cap is the only one that seems close, to be honest. Any more for any more?

What about valley? I know most valleys are formed by water eroding away land, but are some formed by the Earth's crust moving?

Or contract, as with my previous post - but agree that's really tenuous.

I like valley

Malc · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 10:33

I don't.

Happy to try Ham or Cap

Dave, Joans, Bobby?

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 10:59

Well, I suggested Cap, so obviuosly am ok with it.

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49232

Alright. guess:cap

Yes, it means Cap is grey.

Right then. Let's put this game to bed with THE BEST CLUE EVAR

myp · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 12:18

Don't they have unlimited guesses though? Or is it just until they get one wrong?

Just until wrong, I thought.

Quote:

The moderator or either of the leaders posts to say that this is a red word, so they can continue. If they guessed wrong, their turn ends. If they guess the assassin, they lose the game.

Cooooooooool.

Well I've had a clue ready for these last two words for ages, but now I don't like it. So I'm going with something different instead. Hope it works!

Dilation: 2

Curiosity · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 12:29

Time and

Um

Contract?

Don't see how any of the others fit at all, so it has to be.

It's clearly Duck. Have you fools never heard of Duck Dilation?

Curiosity · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 12:54

Was that the show with the racist dude who made duck calls?

Curiosity · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 12:55

Time is red. One left to get.

KovacsC · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 13:00

Contract it is then...

Curiosity · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 13:29

Contract is obviously the opposite of dilate, but I can't think of any better answers.

KovacsC · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 13:42

Nothing else seems to fit

It *was* pretty obscure, I'll give you that. Pie, valley and rope for crust. It was a bit of a long shot, to day the least.
I don't need to tell you about the Bond one as it was so obvious it would have won us the game, which is clear for all to see.

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 14:22

I still don't get why a cap has a crust, though.

More that a crust is a cap. On pies etc.

What the fucking fuck was the other Bond one?! Good work, reds.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Tue Dec 15, 2015 14:26

Smile?

It's all I could think of, but it seemed ecen more tenuous than cap.

But not as much as rope.

"Part", which was why the clue was "the spy who loved' rather than "the spy who loved me", which was what tipped it over the line in my opinion.

Sadly for everyone, Curio got it straight away.
Bond, Atlantis and Part.

I thought it was "contract" as the name of the film had been contracted, but that obviously wasn't the case

Crust is the edges, isn't it?

Gotta say, I was counting on Craster to get "rope".
