Codenames discussion & GAME SETUP / SIGN UP

sKeith · 2018-01-02 18:27:33

Intention of this thread is as a place to solicit players for a new game of codenames. Anybody interested can follow this one thread and and these players don't miss out on new games just because they were not following the last few games.

The Codenames World Cup has piqued my interest. Anyone free over the next day or two that would like a game with a beginner?

Whoo-hoo, that was quick! I feel like Ryder calling the Paw Patrol, or a grown up version of that

I have read up on it so could captain, but I think I'd be more likely to screw something up so maybe best if I don't...

Out of interest (I know you love your stats sKeith!), do you know what the rough win percentage for red vs blue is? Does the extra word pretty much balance the advantage of going first?

Team going first does have extra word. Colour is not first or second, or 9 or 8. Hence why we pick the colour, not first or 2nd.
When randing the board, the colour is set, and the captain picking the colour has not recieved the board yet to know if thats 1st (9) or 2nd (8).

I don't, but it wouldn't be too hard to compile.
Busy this weekend watching movies, so maybe next weekend I'll make a start on it.
