Have you seen the old man
In the closed down market
Kicking up the papers
With his worn out shoes?
In his eyes, you see no pride
Hands held loosely at his side
Yesterday's codenames
Telling yesterday's words

Thermostat 2

Green&Red

DEGREE

If correct

SWITCH

If correct pass

sKeith

correct, correct, play passes.

Green&Red

I should probably get someone to explain the strategy around playing or passing

Also what happens if I now think I know the remaining first clue, have I lost my shot?

Baggly

You have now.

You get guesses equal to the number sKeith clues you +1 guess.

So in that case, you could have made 1 more guess, having already guessed correctly twice (sK having providing you with Thermostat 2).

Some people play a game where they keep ones they know to keep the board open (so you know you have WORD in the bank, but dont guess it to leave as many words open to me to make a mistake). Personally, if i have a word in the bank and have the guesses, i guess.

Baggly

The caveat to the above is that im not a very good player

Green&Red

Sound but me guessing incorrectly means it passes and that chance is gone

Correct. You can only keep guessing if you get guesses right, up to a max of +1 guesses on whatever your captain gave you.
