I'm still leaning towards THUMB first - I think it's a bit of a stretch for rho and us to all agree that thumbs aren't fingers, and it's the most direct connection by far for me. Alternatively, if we skip the musical interpretation, fingering is a form of sexual forePLAY.

Also, consider that we have a very comfortable lead. Let's not overthink this and throw the game to the assassin somehow smile

I'm fine with that.

Edit: Crosspost. I meant I was fine with Lewwyn's order, but El Grillo raises some good points. I wasn't going to bring up the non-musical meaning - we're a family-friendly site, and all that - but it's worth thinking about. You have to expect that THUMB will be guessed when you clue any variation on Finger, but it's still a risky way to clue PLAY and THUMB. I think we all agree that we should try one of those first, before any of the musical stuff?

Okay I'm down with keeping it simple

Point to thumb

At worst it would be grey imo

Ok I lean piano next over string. Your finger placement on a piano is often called your fingering; same with a guitar, but string is one step further from piano and guitar.

Sure, sounds good to me. All these options are really close, so whether or not we make the right choice seems like luck right now.

I suggest we pass here, the low-variance option favors us when we're this far ahead. 1-to-go and 2-to-go don't differ by that much, I don't think rho intentionally gave us a clue that we could interpret in so many ways, and blue isn't going to get 6 right next turn.

Yeah, you are probably right. I'm good to pass.

Well let's let Azoth decide, if you think pass, pass next. If you think Piano point piano!
