    hahaha ar-chives! good one!

    If someone wanted to be a bit more outside the box, throw something like Onion in the mix... because... Onions... Chives... Archives... a stretch definitely, bit could've worked.

    or Tom, because ya know...onions go with turkey and chives are nice, and... oh wait, I got a little sideways there...

    sorry for Tom, EN !

    To be fair if one of the clues had been museum, historical, or library, combined with 3 of the existing clues, you could get to Archive.

    Not the easiest of words, but far from impossible.

    I should clarify , impossible for me to clue! I don't think my brain works that way. I'd never think something like onion!

    Ha ha, it didn't throw me off the scent luckily :)

    No, and as guesser it'd be nearly impossible to work back from onions as a clue, to archive. I know I certainly couldn't. There'd be too many directions you could go with onions.

    But if the clues were Records, Data, Museum, Onion for example, it might take a while but I think you'd get there.

    I think I'd assume one of teammates was mental if I was given that sequence

    Well, thank yourself lucky I ain't on your team, because Mental is my middle name... :D

    Sorry aaron. Mine was one of the duplicates. Would "spelling" help at all?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,392 ✭✭✭LadySkunk


    7 out of 8 correct answers for Round 1 is hardly cracking ya dose. Same success rate as LadySkunk, only difference is I didn't take the coward's way out by passing. (No offence LS ;))


    What was that LeVar? :pac:

    Soz LadySkunk... you just happened to be in the firing line...

    Blame Electric Nitwit, my bullets seem to have deflected off them and hit you, but they shot first, so what else could I have done... ;)


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


    Oh, yeah, I see now, was supposed to be 'bee'. I was thinking of a buzzcut with the 'buzz' clue. Ah well. We ended on a nice neutral score of 0 :D

    Nice guessing. I don't envy you. I'd be rubbish at it.

    This was only our practise round anyway :P
