Sorry y'all, I was helping with a move all day yesterday, but I'm now able to play.

I say our symbol should be: :meatcook: or :leafguy:

So it's settled, then. The name of our team is
:welcome3: I did but prompt the age to quit their clogs By the known rules of ancient liberty, When straight a barbarous noise environs me Of owls and cuckoos, asses, apes and dogs: As when those hinds that were transform'd to frogs Rail'd at Latona's twin-born progeny Which after held the sun and moon in fee. But this is got by casting pearl to hogs, That bawl for freedom in their senseless mood, And still revolt when truth would set them free. Licence they mean when they cry liberty; For who loves that, must first be wise and good. But from that mark how far they rove we see, For all this waste of wealth and loss of blood. :leafguy:

So Team A is up first.

Your clues from Kael are CALENDAR, TRAFFIC, PARK

Now it is time for ceptimus and slimshady to discuss in this thread what they think the three digit code is. Then they post their guess here. Please post your guess in bold like this Guess: ###, so I can tell your official guess from conversation.

Remember you don't want to give away to the other team what your key words are!

Hey cep! :wave:

I think it's 2 ? 4

What do you think the middle one is? I guess maybe 1? But perhaps I'm not thinking as I should be...

Round 2 starts with clues for Team A.

Team A your clues for round 2 are RIDE, TIME, RULE

The rest of the rounds will be different than round 1. For these rounds the opponent first gets a change to score a :wow: by guessing their opponents code.

Team B should now discuss publicly what you think the code might be for team A. The entire team may participate in this discussion. You may then submit your guess in this thread or by PM to me if you want to be tricky.

Team A you can think about your clues, but do not discuss until Team B is complete.

Default Re: Decrypto

We don't have a whole lot to go on, but it would seem likely that the clues go together like so:

(ride, traffic)
(calendar, time)
(rule)
(park)

There are a ton of things that those might correspond with tho... and it's possible that rule and park go together I suppose, and we have no clues for the last word.

Is the idea that we should guess every round anyway? There's no reason not to guess, is there?

so it could be something like

drive, clock, king, garden

:shrug:

Remember you are just guessing the three digit code, not the key words.

But you are correct that you lose nothing for an incorrect guess.

Oh so we're guessing the code not the key words! I misunderstood that part.

Well then I'd probably say 1,2,3. Team?

I think it's 421, actually.

ETA: I mean, I can see 431, so I'm not 100%, but I'd lean more to 421.

Team B guess 123

Team A guess 421

The code was 421! No scoring change.

The clues for Team B are Tree, Locale, Feeling

Team A you now get a chance to guess what the code for round 2 is for Team B. Slimshady can help with this one. You can submit your guess here or by PM to me.
