    Game is set up so probably best to just play as and when we can, don't need to finish it in one sitting.

    Both captains, take a picture of the master board. It expires after 24 hours.

    No if your game is up on the board, you can fire ahead. The end of round 1 is just a little weird, given that Team Hell No havent had a game yet.

    I appreciate you waiting however! You are correct that waiting for the round to finish is the way to go!

    Not at all, it takes two to tango. Maybe I should've gone with 2 instead of 3 and hoped to pick up more later the last time :cool:

    If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred codenames battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will hit every assassin.

    Go away out of that with your zen intimidation tactics.

    Updated schedule below. Round 3 games are in; please feel free to proceed with them.

    Team Kosh and Team Cage will wait until round 3 is completed before we are in action again (the winners bracket gets a rest round :) )

    As there are a few players on a rest round, if you want one of us to run the board (generate it, share it with captains, update it on thread), that option should be available to you. I can do it, and im sure some of the other players wouldnt mind as well!

    This round may see a couple more teams eliminated from the competition, so the very best of luck to all!


    Oh! And if anyone cant make a game from here on in, or is under pressure in RL, sKeith has very kindly (and i genuinely appreciate it) offered to step in as a sub. Please PM myself and sKeith if you would like to avail of this option. I would prefer everyone to play on and just delay the games, rahter than quit, but needs must, if you dont think you can play on!


    Your teams are:

    Team Hell No
    Beaker
    Necro

    Team Test - Eliminated
