I'd be up for it, unless TT has a burning desire to spymaster.

Wow. That was exciting ending. When I noticed Brick mentioning HOTEL I got my hopes up. Decent comeback for us in the end when red team struggled but my 2nd clue was so awful
 . I'll write some more thoughts later whem I'm not typing with phone.
Clue #1: Metronome 4:
I thought I had a pretty good clue here. Words intended Tick, Sound, Track, Switch. I thought swing was a possibility too but since it was grey I let that be. Tick and sound were guessed well, but I had assumed too much when making this clue - I had in my mind electronic metronome, and for those there certainly are different TRACKs (different tempo) and you can SWITCH them off. I don't remember if anyone else than novice thought of switch but others didn't see that connection. Clue #2 (diseaster!) Player 3: Words intended: Track, Switch, Robin. Yeah, this was a diseaster clue... When I thought for this clue (at 1 am!), I completely forgot the other meaning of player as a gambler. And this is how the mess begun starting from Roulette. This was completely my bad. I tried to get you back on Track (heh, heh) to guess those missed Metronome words but that certainly didn't work. What made it worse is that Train fit both of my previous clues so you guessed that next going even further away from the words I wanted to be guessed  . Also the last nail was Pass which fit the clue as well. If there's a single clue that I regret making it's this one for sure.Clue #3Summoner unlimited Mostly meant to Dave (and maybe Commodore) as I knew they should see Pit/Death right away. This was pretty much of an FFH clue so that's why I thought you wouldn't guess for example Hawk. Words intended were Pit, Death, Force. But since I had to make unlimited there was no way for you to know how many words were related to Summoner only. So it didn't quite work. Clue #4 Archer unlimited I was really surprised the other team didn't guess Hawk/Bat for Man, so I didn't really except to get here. Missing words at this point that weren't connected to previous clues by your own thoughts were Robin and Force. So intended words were indeed Robin, Force. At first I was just going to Clue "Hood" but I thought then you might not guess Force. But as it turned out you didn't find Archer to be Robin Hood at all which surprised me. Too often I had in mind perfect set of words for the clue but then I assumed you'd think like me. Instead, I probably should've thought how would you think of this clue. Anyway, it was a fun learning experience for me.
