Codenames 10

Definitely no-no for me are: ENGLAND, MICROSCOPE, CASINO, DWARF, SPINE, THUMB, HORSESHOE, MATCH.

That leaves us with: MODEL, SNOWMAN, TIME, LOCK, AMBULANCE, ROCK, SPRING. We need 4/7.

Thoughts for those:
- Snowman (the fairytale, if it's know in UK like it's know in Finland and as Harry is from UK he should know about it). He also probably knew we all weren't from the US)
- SPRING (spring from the ground)
- Model (flight can mean paper plane, and model can mean miniature. That's not exactly flight though, more like a plane)
- Lock (flight = escape, and you usually have to get around of locks)
- Ambulance (helicopter ambulance makes sense)
- Rock (can be thrown)
- Time (time-flight was some sort of tv-seris or something (BBC IIRC)... I could be misremebering though. Time could fit otherwise as well. Time flies?)

How to choose 4 of those? That's hard. The one I like least of those is Rock. So that'd leave us with 6 to choose 4 from. So SNOWMAN, SPRING, MODEL, LOCK, AMBULANCE, TIME.

Hmm... I'd take SNOWMAN for sure, probably also SPRING. But I'm not at all certain of the other 2. I guess TIME could be one then maybe MODEL? Hard really.

I'll agree to SNOWMAN on the Brit-logic, but I think we should select SPRING and TIME first. If we hit on all of those, then we need to be very sure about the last pick.

Looked back and I like time the most next. I like auroarchers summary. I think the weaker ones there are lock/Rock. I'm not too sure about model. Model instantly springs to me planes and trains but it is 2 steps from flight, like lock is in a flight from jail and breaking the lock.

Air ambulances are very rare so maybe why I didn't twig it as I am in the field, but to those outside might seem more common? And is not quite as far removed as lock/model perhaps.

I like TIME/SNOWMAN/AMBULANCE/MODEL/SPRING. Not sure which of those I would remove... Probably ambulance.

Agreed.

[pjabrony]

I think we're all on the same page about those three, and if this is our final turn either way, then it's not worth quibbling over order. I'll split the difference.

Point to SPRING
Point to SNOWMAN
Point to TIME

[Old Harry]

Spring is grey.

[Aurorarcher]

Damn . Oh, well... at least we hit grey with the first guess so that red's task might be a bit harder.

[ReallyEvilMuffin]

Ah we screwed that a bit! I'm glad it wasn't snowman we burnt out on, would feel bad if that was our cause of pain!

[ipecac]

I was pretty sure of SPRING..

Get us home, David. I think we still favor Match from the Cooking clue.
