Challenge 6 Leader Picks
« on: April 15, 2019, 05:11:50 pm »
I adore playing Codenames, so I'm comfortable with being a leader. Figured we should start by seeing who wants to be a leader vs who doesn't.
When you're rife with devastation, there's a simple explanation.
You're a toy maker's creation, trapped inside a crystal ball.
And whichever way he tilts it, know that we must be resilient.
We won't let them break our spirits, as we sing our silly song.

I'm very happy to lead, buuut my availability might not be the best, so if you really want to I'm happy to defer.

I also love Codenames, I'm not against leading, but tonight I am entirely booked. Tomorrow I am free.

I'm available now and I'll be available tomorrow after school. Depending on when we play, I could be on during school too.

I get the feeling that we're not playing tonight, so I might go to bed early.

I'll be around in an hour until I fall asleep(in about 5 hours?), if we want to do it then.
I can understand if you all prefer doing it later though.

looks like the challenge isn't happening until like 3 hours from now, when I'll be sleeping.  :(

Best of luck! Hope you ponies can bring it home!

So it looks like people who are comfortable with leading are: Myself, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Daddy.
Who all are going to be here for that 5PST time?

codenames is something we *can* do with three if necessary, although I do hope more people show

I'm here, lemme get my comp and some tea and I'll be good to go in a few mins (we're going second, so as long as I'm not the leader for this round yall are good to start)

I feel bad for the mods, my chat with them is filled with shouts about how eggs aren't round wtf??? Passing also kind of fucked us, because you had the clock correct the first time. I just had no idea how the hell to connect that fucking trash can to anything else that didn't take away a freespace or one of their words.

second is usually best since it gives the leader more time to figure out good clues, but it's up to the leader imo, since it affects them the most

PLEASE?

Being a word away every time is killing me :( I didn't even notice the roll with the mummy, you just lucked into that one being right. It WAS the Tire the first time. And then I made a stretch with the bells counting for hanging. I didn't even see the stupid acorn man.
