My first thought when Barbecue 5 came up was to look for meat words but somehow those animals didn`t seem.. appealing. lol 

It`s funny how 7 words can fit a single clue like that. @WK: What would you have done if KETCHUP had been the assassin?

Don't worry about WASHER, it's all part of the fun.

JR4: KETCHUP is normally a difficult word to clue that just so happened to work really well with Barbecue, so if it was the assassin it would've been fine. I'd probably pair ATLANTIS with PARK for Submarine 2 (no PLATYPUS assassin means underwater words are A-OK) and probably something like Bar/Pub 4-5 for the rest. Depends on what I get instead of KETCHUP as the 8th word as well.

Well, that was certainly very different to last round. Yeah, I need to keep a better record to hand of exactly what has been said - it's too easy to miss things wading through the thread.

Post mortem: I was very aggressive this game because I thought blue could potentially win in two rounds (Appetizers 6, Waterslide 2). Coal was supposed to pick up China, Mine, Giant (the huge trucks used in strip mining), and Washer (to clean smokestacks, which I later remembered is called a scrubber, oops). Potentially good misses were Time and Ring; the expected gray miss was Cliff (not old king *Cole*). Wedding was supposed to pick up Time, Ring, Hotel, Cross, with Mass as the probable gray miss. Since we were clearly not on the right track for an unlimited clue on the last round, I went for a more specific clue and hoped blue would overthink it.

Well played, blue.

I'd like to give it a shot, actually; haven't spymastered in a while. Although I'll defer to OH or Auro if either would like to try instead.
