    Why didn't blue get another turn? I thought red had the first turn...
    Just checked and we did. 2nd player gets screwed over :(

    I would also like to play again

    Red has the first turn but one more word to guess to compensate for that

    Ah.. ok.

    Basically I see it as this: red wins if they can pull off 3-3-3 otherwise its blue with 3-3-2, red with 3-2-2-2 then blue with 2-2-2-2

    Blue also has a smaller field for guessing and better odds for random guesses. Overall I expect red to have a slight advantage given we have enough time to sit down and analyze / do research, so coming up with broad clues is easier than doing it live

    Blue Team takes the first turn, @Auralynx to provide the first clue.

    Note that it is random which team starts, but the first team always has nine agents to contact, while the second team has eight agents to contact.

    Okay the more I look at the board the more possible "viewing" related things I see. I'm leaning toward screen and telescope as my top 2, but the third is a bit more opaque to me. Shakespeare is viewed, as are streams on the web (ok those 2 are a bit of a stretch). I also thought of a viewing deck but I guess the more common term is observation deck so maybe not that. On the other hand you usually find those decks on a skyscraper, so...

    Screen and telescope for sure, yes. I'm leaning towards stream over shakespeare, but we can save that for the third guess.

    @jakobagger, @Polaritie, @CesareB

    Been almost 24h since your last Contact. Wishing the move the game forward, if you haven't guessed by the time I wake up tomorrow (~8hrs from now), your turn should be forfeit and I'll issue a clue.

    soaring eagle..so yeah, eagle.

    skyscraper is only other one that sticks out as being related

    duck seems iffy but possible...as one of the related

    If it were duck and eagle there'd be a much easier clue to give!

    Contact: Eagle

    if successful,

    Contact: Skyscraper

    if successful,

    Pass

  • CesareBCesareB Registered User regular
    Okay I'm pretty sure war is one of them. I'm leaning toward pin as the second since that's how you win a wrestling match. The third could be a lot of things and I honestly think it's something obvious I'm just missing.
