    Gotta ask, was Instruktor to do with Jason Lee because that's what I immediately first thought of?

    I thought adding the k there was a cracking clue.

    The Ayers one threw me cause i thought platypus and austrailia for that

    its easy , goto https://www.horsepaste.com/
    pick a word, thats your board, share link to baord with other captain via PM.

    take a pic of opening 'player' board and paste it and the teams as OP of new thread ''Codenames | Game 12'
    take a pic of 'spymaster' board for spoiler, or in case board times out. (it times out after a day.)

    Just my 2c but words should probably be English only. I think titles of foreign things are fine too like characters, movies etc. So instruktor was grand as turns out it's also a tv show.

    Also fine if it's a word used in English. Example in the rules is linking apple and Berlin. Apfel wouldn't be allowed but strudel is.

    I looked up the czech word which described another word: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/instruktor

    I since realised that's actually against the rules.

    AYERS was simply supposed to refer to Ayers Rock for Australia and mount. I should have left australia in hindsight as playtpus could have overlapped by accident. I should have googled it too because who the feck is Bill Ayers!

    I thought it was a tricky board. I was stuck with FIELD, CZECH, TEACHER, DRILL, MARCH, LASER and SPIKE. I was waiting for GAS to be picked to go for fracking.

    I could have probably managed to get DRILL as part of INSTRUKTOR actually as osh pointed out.

    Fair play osh, interesting idea to sit on a massive clue till the end :D

    Anyone think of anything that would combine LASER and MARCH? I was stumped

    Well I thought if I went for animal straight off and you were playing catch up it might force you to get really good clues. By leaving it you might think you had more time :)

    Also thought field could possibly be a problem for the animal clue so was waiting til that went.

    But yeah think you definitely had the harder group of words to link.

    Was thinking something like army could possibly link laser, march, drill and field. Perhaps reaching a bit though . And pilot was out there as a neutral

    Yeah noticed a lot get repeated. There does seem to be less words in this online version than the real game. Which is strange given they could surely have loads more.

    Jason Lee is one of those infamous celebrities that come up when people talk about stupid baby names. He called his son Pilot-Instruktor, so my guess for that, if it had been given to me, would have included Pilot.

    Never heard of Bill Ayers either. Probably showing my age here, but I'd have though to Pam Ayers first.

    Ah, just checked, his son is actually called Pilot Inspektor. Much better than Pilot Instruktor :)
