Let’s have one last scan for stratosphere

Only other thing that I can see is "circle", but spheres aren't really circular...

Yes, you have one word left to find.

Author:  GazChap [ Fri Nov 10, 2017 18:20 ]
Post subject:  Re: Codenames game 1 round 2 (Nov 2017 edition)

Yep. I guess the stratosphere could be considered to be "space" and you get stars in space (that was my logic before when I brought it up), so I can't think of anything better.

I almost don't want us to win if that's the right answer

It would be a bitter victory.

Hurry up and win so I can Google Hawser!

Author:  GazChap [ Fri Nov 10, 2017 18:22 ]
Post subject:  Re: Codenames game 1 round 2 (Nov 2017 edition)

I think we've basically gotta go for it, can't give them another turn or they're bound to win.

Yes and air, that's what I am thinking, although pipe and sub work too, maybe Spring too, but force and air first.

Post subject:  Re: Codenames game 1 round 2 (Nov 2017 edition)

Good choice on passing on the last one, team - there wasn't another one to get. I used both hawser and pinafore for ship.

Amusingly, Grim... and I both realised we only know the word because it's written on the Thames Clipper at the point where the mooring rope is tied up (and where you queue to get on).

Post subject:  Re: Codenames game 1 round 2 (Nov 2017 edition)

Hawser was a terrible clue, you buffoon. So was "pressure" in a grid with "submarine" in it.

Also screw you for a grid that had rope and string, and sub and ship

I had that open, but it was grey when I checked, and I guess I didn't reload it, I didn't recheck it when I said it the second time. My excuse is that my left eye feels like someone sprayed acid in it, and it's been hurting all day.

Hawser is a bloody good clue! Not as good as pinafore though

Author:  Mimi [ Fri Nov 10, 2017 21:32 ]
Post subject:  Re: Codenames game 1 round 2 (Nov 2017 edition)

Pinafore was a fab clue.

Author:  myp [ Fri Nov 10, 2017 21:36 ]
Post subject:  Re: Codenames game 1 round 2 (Nov 2017 edition)

Pinafore was excellent. Hawser was dumb as rocks
