    I presume the Pinky clue refers to Pinky and the Brain. I only know that from Googling it. I have never heard of it prior.

    Sorry team :(

    I thought it was media too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,710 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    It was really hard to come up with clues that got across the multi element of the word.

    Unlucky EN, you were very close.

    I'm really sorry folks but I just can't think of what it is. Nothing matches all the words so I'm going to play it safe and

    Pass

    I can think of a few that match bomb, shock and sea, but encapsulate and protection are thorns in my side. I'll stick with a pass. Sorry folks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,762 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Hard luck Barney, probably the right move, I wouldn’t have gotten it


    Shell


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Oooh, a tough word.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,896 ✭✭✭tusk

    super job!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,516 ✭✭✭aaronjennings


    I feel like passing as well, tbh, but screw it, you live by the sword you die by the sword

    Sorry if I'm missing something obvious, team, but...

    Valid Clues: Sky; cockcrow; Eastwardly; unset

    Ok sorry I'm late folks, had to do an essentials run at lunchtime and had actual work to do this afternoon to keep up the working from home pretense.

    I LOVE the unset clue. I think I may use that in future to describe what I hope the word is here:

    Guess: Sunrise

    If I had it back I wouldn't have allowed the unset clue


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    That was a tough one, aaron. In hindsight, I wonder if "sneaker" or "trainers" by one of us would have helped. I went for race.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,762 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Scores after Round 3:

    Team Name Round 3
    The A Team 1
    Homer's Trigger-Happy Rebels and Mollywood Stars 3
    Four Men and a Lady 2
    I'm a Four, Baby -1
    Coming in from the rear -1


    Molly helping her team out to a lead but it can all change very quickly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh


    Yeah it would have helped I reckon. I thought someone else might go that way and didn’t want to duplicate. Should have just gone Nike or something in hindsight.

    Good job Molly. I went with Eastwardly for that one, again hoping that alongside the other clues it would make sense.

    I also debated using Fiddler for that one, but it would've really relied on you having a good knowledge of musical theatre, so decided not to chance it.

    I probably would have said 'bean' as my word if I were giving out clues, but hey, that's easy to say in retrospect
