Draft is RED :ussr:

Thank you for completing our mission for us my American Comrades!

RED WINS!



If you could all please rise for the National Anthem.

Long live the RED team!

Seriously though, this was a great deal of fun, and being Spymaster is bloody nerve wracking; hats off to OmegaGoo for his/her valiant efforts.

(I will make my post game report in another post.)

I gave 5 clues this game. 3 were bad. Two were good.

Salt: 2 - Water and Slug. No issues here.

Experiement: 2 - Scientist and Switch. Here's where things started going wrong. Frankly, I just missed that Vacuum was on the board.

Sickness: 3 - Cold, Ghost, and Ray. Esoteric D&D references are not what I should be making.

Mechanics: 0 - It covered most of the nonsense, but it also un-clued Switch, which turned out to be my downfall.

Funhouse: 4 - Park, Ghost, Lion, Switch. You guys got this one.


I am sorry I was a terrible Spymaster, but I learned something! And I was entertaining. That counts for something!

I WON THIS AMAZING AVATAR! I'M A WINNER! WOOOOO!
Clue 1: Fish. Fish have scales and while I know that sharks aren't fish I figured my team would get it. I didn't even see the danger that water presented, but luckily team blue went with salt as their first clue and removed water as a possible mistake.
Clue 2: Herbivore. Since lions are also mammals I couldn't try that so I went with herbivore. I knew rabbit was an easy get, but (fruit) bat was a tougher option. I almost went with varmint as in rabbits and bats are pest animals [bats aren't pests, bats are awesome] but as pistol was the assassin I couldn't risk a varmint pistol guess, so herbivore was it.
Clue 3: Thicken. Plots thicken and I knew it would be guessed easily. Thick was an option as it would easily lead to ketchup, but probably not plot and might be rhymed with chick, so thicken was what I went with. Luckily my crew is smart.
Clue 4: Nut. With no way to match bolt and draft in a single clue I just chose nut.
Clue 5: Well, what can I say? Thanks blue team.

Wow. Just wow.

I'm not sure how Switch is more than tangentially related to experiment.

And I kinda was hoping Mechanics was not a real clue and more of an effort to hinder red team.

Alright. For my own sanity, I'm just gonna drop you from the queue then. Sign back up when you get home, and I'll re-add you as a new player at the head of the queue. Deal?

Ketchup and bat were tricky but really the only picks looking at the rest of the board. Good poo poo.

Good call on War, I feel better about Helicopter than I do about Vet (although I see why). If you're trying to link Helicopter and War, Vietnam is perfect. But Vet is pretty good too. I'm not American so don't associate it with Vet as much as others might.
