    Shall we try for something? We're pretty far behind. Still no idea what the first clue 2nd agent was.

    I'm willing to gamble on a random pick at this point.

    How about Iron? Because a wrecking ball is iron maybe...

    Yes to laser.

    Is gas used for spectroscopy? I'm not a science person at all.

    Third one could be track in the sense of measuring something?

    Game 2 will start tonight or after eight players have signed up, whichever comes later. ("Tonight" being vaguely defined.) Players who have not yet played a game will have priority over those who have. There are currently four players in the queue: Auralynx, Zombie Hero, Polaritie, CesareB.

    I assume cycle was the missing chomstography word?

    Also it going so quick I thought we'd be keeping teams and rotating Spy Masters. But it is of course up to you.

    Anyway, keen to keep playing please.

    If I kept teams / rotated Spy Masters for consecutive games, then that would take four games, or about a month, to get through everyone and a new set of people in. In the interest of letting more people play, teams will be randomly drawn each time. If you want to sign up, go ahead and re-sign up in bold limegreen as before.

    That said I'll step down so some of the people who signed up for reserves can step in.

    Reserve for future games. I'll play the second game if you can't find eight other players (unlikely, I suspect).
