Okay, I went ahead and swapped out all of the non-cosmere references, as well as some of the more obscure/difficult codenames. Any last requests for codenames you feel should be swapped out? I'll give people a little bit of time to respond, but once we start the codenames will be locked in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t guarantee that the clues given by the Spymasters won’t spoil anything though. As I said, play at your own risk. I will say this much (and I should anyway, regardless), for Oathbringer specifically, if any clues or comments might be oathbringer spoilers, then make sure to put them in spoiler tags and label them as such. Let’s all adhere to that Oathbringer Spoiler Policy banner at the top of the page, yeah? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk things over with your teammates, they’ll help you out. alright, Game 1 has begun! I’ve generated the keycard and shared it with Xino. A quick reminder to everyone to review the rules and stick to them as best as you can. Good luck everyone! The keycard indicates that the red team goes first, so here’s my clue: Events / 3 EDIT: some housekeeping stuff: first, for easy reference: Quote Link to the google sheet.

Steeldancer Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 Kered and Jondesu, we have three things to find! The best ones I see are the Battle of Luthadel, the Oathpact, and the Reod. unless you define the Cosmere as an event, which I don't.

At least, that’s what I was planning. In real life Codenames you have to discuss in the open, so it makes sense to do it that way here, too. Speaking of “mentions,” it probably wouldn’t hurt for the Spymasters to mention their teammates when they post a clue. I guess I’ll go ahead and do so now so poor Steeldancer isn’t left hanging. @Steeldancer @Kered @Jondesu also, it occurs to me now that we’ll need some way for a team to signal that they’re done making guesses and their turn is over. Often times the choice is made for them by making a wrong guess or using up all of their guesses, but many times they have simply made all the guesses they want to make that turn and wish to stop. In real life it’s a simple thing to ask if they’re done with their turn, but in an online setting that “simple” question could potentially take days to get an answer to. I’m open to suggestions on how to handle it, but right now I’m thinking a time limit might be the simplest way, though I have no idea what an appropriate time limit would be. Maybe have players signal when they’ve made all their guesses they wish to make this turn? Edited January 9, 2018 by Herowannabe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t honestly say I fully understand the game yet, but yes, those seem like the three being referenced.

Jondesu Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 Nice! I would lean toward skipping our last guess to avoid the risk of the assassin, since we don’t have a new relevant clue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your team hasn’t been given a clue yet, so there’s not really anything for them to discuss yet. That will change soon. Soeaking of which, @Steeldancer @Kered Last call to use your last guess, if you want to. If not, please say so so that the blue team can take their turn. Perhaps while making guesses in general, everyone consider indicating when you’re done.
