Just One #2 - Game thread

Phew, was worried about sunrise. I thought 'morning' and 'dawn' might be duplicates, so I went with 'sky' but then regretted it after as it seemed too vague.

It was only after submitting that I thought of 'tequila' - wish that had been my clue now!

Well done again Molly.

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

Ha! Never thought in that direction at all!

Answer: Fork

No mistake this time, straight in with the right answer

I mean all the heavy-lifting was done for me on that one, the clues were bang-on, all I had to do was show up

He prefers it when he gets two clues

Valid Clues: Golf; Joy

So here is my though process - "Kim", there is a golfer called Kim and Kim Joy I think was a contestant on Bake Off. That seems unlikely.

Perhaps golf is something to do with cars but I can't really link joy to that. I can't link course to joy.

So I'm going to go with

happy

I hope golf is a link to happy gilmore and joy is another word for happy. I hope gilmore was the duplicate clue.

I fear I'm wrong and if so, apologies folks.

OK, Round 4

The A Team

Guesser - Electric Nitwit

Valid clues: Joint; Palm; Bracelet; Strap

So...

Wrist joint, wrist connects to the palm (that's the one I'm a bit sketchy about), a bracelet is worn on the wrist, so too a watch strap...

Yeah, guess WRIST

Its probably what I would have gone for too in fairness. I have no idea where golf came out of, like no idea.

If I told you jockey was the clue you missed out on what would you guess?

Ooph, I'd go with jump then I think. Maybe champion, but jump for joy is stronger than joy at being champion.

osh

Rider maybe?

If someone had of clued CUP it might have worked, albeit different spelling.

Think you've got it there.

Sorry Barney. That was tricky. Mine was joy. Trying to avoid obvious clues makes this so difficult. I was between joy and knight.

At that's unfortunate. I wouldn't have gotten it even with jockey. Golf threw me and I wasn't going to get rider from golf, although I like the link to the Ryder Cup.

Happy was a good guess given the two words

I was between cyclist and jockey and flow

Really not much to clue for rider

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.

Lol probably safe enough. Whilst I do enjoy a good musical, I wouldn't be overly familiar with a lot of them.

Just want to double check that the clues are all correct? And spelt correctly? Nothing left out?

Mollyb60

Never mind. It just clicked with me!

Guess: Prize

Necro

That clue 'sur' should probably not be allowed tbh.

4) The clue may not contain a significant component of the secret word, even if the root is different. Grass is not a valid clue for "grasshopper," and grasshopper is not a valid clue for "grass."

In hindsight shouldn't have allowed sur but

I don't think that rules it out, the word wasn't surprise,it was prize. Its just not a real word

Well Big Sur is a name of a place and names of places have been allowed previously...

Anyway, I don't care. Well done Molly! My clue was Jackpot for that one.
