    CASINO 2

    The two means you can have 2 goes +1. You can only give one answer at a time though and you need to wait to find out if it's the right answer from me or PJ. You can also choose to Pass after you give your first answer.

    I SHOULD MENTION THAT THERE'S ONE KILLER WORD AND IF YOU SAY THAT THEN YOU LOSE THE GAME FOR YOUR TEAM.

    So now we just need Sully to have a go and a word relating to the clue "Casino".

    Is a red word!

    You can either have another guess or pass.


    FYI, just to clarify on the number of guesses you have...
    The number that a team captain gives along with the clue word doesn't necessarily have to be exactly representative of how many cards that clue is for, rather, it's how many guesses +1 he's giving to his team. In later turns, usually there will have been a number of wrong answers, and thus perhaps words out there still matching earlier clues, so a captain may want to give higher numbers of guesses than there are words that match his latest clue, to give his team the opportunity to locate words they may have missed earlier in the game. This is kinda done automatically with the +1 rule, but sometimes you might want your team to find 2 more, or even 3 more, than those you're actually giving a clue for. It's a risky strategy at times though, depending on the state of the game and how much he perceives his team are in tune with his thought patterns.

    Why not just give your partner 24 guesses per turn then? What's the advantage of staying low?

    Because if they guess blue words the blue team get them and if the guess the kill word we lose immediately.

    You need to give QB your clue and how many guesses.

    Exactly. I'll update the board when I'm at my computer but we will have a record on thread of what's been guessed.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,388 ✭✭✭✭Jayop


    No panic. Once PJ posts his clue you can come in and guess. This can go on but you only need to check in occasionally.

    Correct that is a blue word.

    You can have another guess or pass. You have 2 + 1 guesses left (right Jayop?!)

    Ring isn't a red or blue word. You lose control of the board.

    Sorry PJ, you were probably very clever in that your clue covered a third answer, but I'm too chicken to risk it.
