    Ok I'm just gonna guess because honestly .. James and Saturn.. like what the heck is that?!?!

    Right my thinking is the following....

    James : James Bond

    Saturn : Rings of Saturn.

    Something to do with rings... Wedding ring? Gold ring on your finger... Tie that in with bond....


    GUESS: GOLDFINGER.

    Unfortunately that is incorrect.

    The correct answer was: Peach

    The duplicated clue you missed out on was: Princess

    Which may have helped you a little more I think.

    Unlucky Buile, my clue was princess. I was just going go fruit but thought it might duplicate.

    For the 2 clues you had, that was a brilliant guess you put together.

    I wouldn't have got that one. I just Googled. I'd never heard of a Saturn Peach before.

    For the rest of the clues I actually have a very good completion rate.

    Just 6 people have yet to send on their remaining 7 clues.

    Thanks for that folks, means we can likely keep this running at the same rate :)

    Did you ever figure out what Tile was? Guessed it was Orange from the rest of the clues, but Tile had me baffled.

    ...this game makes no sense.

    All the clues were duplicated I'd say so therefore invalid

    Think it just means that at least one of your fellow team-mates submitted the same clue, so it gets removed because your guesser only gets clues that aren't duplicated.

    So either all four of you gave the same clue, or two of you gave one "same" and the other two gave a different "same".

    Its the thing that makes the game interesting.

    Essentially it means the Cluers are playing Peehs against the other players on their team, to avoid duplicating clues so that their guesser won't be left with nothing, which will ultimately make the clues more obscure for the guessers.

    Exactly, so the cluers really need to stay away from the easy enough clues as more than likely someone else will be thinking the same.

    It makes giving the clues a game in itself and then hoping that the guesser has enough knowledge to put the obscure clues together.

    I actually live this game :pac: wouldnt wish guessing in anyone though :D

    Good stuff G&R - Was hoping Tile wouldn't throw you off - interested to see what that meant myself too. I offered up Citrus in the hope that it wouldn't duplicate - My first thought was Fanta but I thought it might be too obvious

    Once LadySkunk miraculously pulls the answer from thin air* we can discuss what went wrong. Probably good to do that before we all submit the rest of the clues, in case we get a feel for the way we're each playing. I'm going to hazard a guess that I matched Shelly, and Deja and Duffers matched :p

    *or passes, of course. But I'm aware of what I said about that :pac:

    All the rest should go in now, I presume Necro was allowing the first by itself while we all got used to the game

    So far Necro, great game! Despite our team getting savaged in the first round :p
