I'm not a fan of Spot.


I don't really want to be the one to pull the trigger here, but I'm fine with any one of Mammoth, Shark or Eagle.

Ok, I'm pretty sure we will get an unlimited clue at this point.

What an odd turn. I was sure spider was one of Red's words, and I think pja's clue sort of flew over our heads.

Perhaps the gimmick was that we were supposed to determine via process of elimination which two of Eagle, Mammoth and Shark were our words. Like, Eagle + Mammoth = toothless, which would have been better than "animal". Or Shark + Eagle is "predator". But if there wasn't anything better for Mammoth + Snark, then perhaps that was to signify those were our words.

Prehistoric, maybe. That whole theory is way too meta for me; I'm still not 100% sure of Mammoth and Shark.

Cypress is obviously just greece, and then after that one I vote we just do the main weaving guesses that we decided on last time, preferred order being sock, button, straw. We can reevaluate the other options after that.

Hmmm. We had 8 clued already, so Cypress doesn't have to point at any particular number. It's surely 2 or 3 though. Anything it does clue has to have been intended for either weaving or equipment though.
I guess it clues Bark and Table. Anything else? Perhaps Greece; they probably grow there and it has to be Cypress rather than some other tree for some reason. Mentioning which, Greece might be good for weaving too, there are lots of things about weaving in Greek myth and legend.

So, what do we have?

Table - cypress, weaving?
Bark - cypress, neither?
Greece - cypress?, weaving?
Straw - weaving
Sock - weaving?
Button - weaving?
Brush - equipment
Jet - weaving?
Mammoth - probably animal
Shark - probably animal
Pupil
Lawyer
Pirate
Spot
Bell

Current preference: Greece, Straw, Brush, Table, Sock, Button. Could be convinced of Bark if anyone can link it to weaving or equipment.
