I am expecting Myp to be so good at this that his first clue leads to at least three correct guesses.

They're the only things you could stick batteries in, unless you had a really co-operative duck, so I'm happy with those two. Suggest starting with torch.

Odds of hitting one of ours: 6/23
Odds of hitting one of theirs: 7/23
Assassin: 1/23
Bystanders: 9/23

Are we gonna risk it for a biscuit? I think we should, personally. 15/23 that nothing much changes.

Taking away one white one makes their guessing easier. I don't really want to do that. And we're more likely to hit one of theirs or the assassin than one of ours. Seems like a very bad bet.

I think last time we said that encouraging guessing or not guessing would be hinting. Eg. if you said that we shouldn't guess, we'd probably take that as an indication that Malc's crazy random words from his arse weren't ones we should go for.

We should guess a third anyway, as he obviously isn't up the to task of making good enough clues, so we'll have to win the game for him.
