[@lancex5195]

This everest bit is an absolute banger lmao

[@andreiferariu]

Its honestly so great. Ryan has been laughing so much during the last month or two on bits and that was rare before

[@sleazydunlop1697]

@@andreiferariu every other word out of chiblees mouth makes NL laugh. does the same thing to me

[@Throkers]

It's the Steven round lol. Absolute gold from Chib

[@calvinthegreat69]

I can't tell if chib is comically dumb, good at playing a comically dumb character, or some combination of the two, but he is a great addition to the group. Very funny.

[@calvinthegreat69]

I take it back. Steven, Stephen, and Stefan were great clues.

[@Mocityspirit]

I’m right there with you. Him and Dan need to talk about helium.

[@GivenFailure]

Seems like a bit of both to me.

[@cephalopod113]

@@Mocityspirit How can you talk about something that isn't even physical?

[@kylerivera3470]

@@cephalopod113 I don't know if you are making some sort of reference, but helium is actually physical. All the elements on the periodic table are. It may not be solid, but liquids and gases still have a physical presence (don't ask me about plasma cause I don't know about that).

Seems like the order of these episodes got mixed up. There are references in episode 2 that happen in this one.

[@AdrianVM19]

Happened with Luck Be A Landlord as well! Egg got scrambled :P

[@ytjho]

NL has graced us with a Prequel to the original Codename series.

[@NekoiNemo]

"Blizzard 4". I can guarantee there are two universes that exist - good one where Ryan said "Blizzard 2", and this one.

[@tarnim80]

how do you give Oktoberfest as a clue when the other team has "mug" and the black word is "calendar"?

[@kylerivera3470]

A similar way to when you give "Blizzard" when the opponent has "Alps", the neutral has "Snowflake", and the black word is "Calendar".

[@iskar02]

@@kylerivera3470 I don't see how Blizzard and Calendar would relate to each other though. Them happening at a particular period (winter) is not reason enough to link it to calendar IMO

[@kylerivera3470]

​@@iskar02 You said it yourself, blizzards happen during winter. In this game that is more than enough of a connection to link a clue to a word. Granted, it can depend on who you are playing with, but I've seen people get real crazy in this game.

[@Madman52403]

I was so sure Evolution was a reference to "Do the evolution" by pearl jam and it actually was gonna be pants. "I am the first mammal to wear pants" is an iconic line from that song.

[@fizzthewizard]

this was, hands down, the hardest I've laughed at a codenames game in a long time. S++

[@phobiandarkmoon]

LOST literally had a character called Christian Shepard so I wouldn't put it past them

[@geoffbeasley8712]

i will never not love justin reacting to things he has never heard of before that everyone else has

Blizzard 4 was horrendous. I love it

[@LegoAssassin098]

Pictomania is not an advertising card. NL put in the CGE and board games packs and that is one of them.

[@Noordhof]

Just because you choose to add the advertising cards, doesn't mean it's not an advertising card.

[@slowbar1]

Seeing a constant thumbnail with a number in the corner gives me warm fuzzy nostalgia.

[@SunWolfAmaterasu]

I absolutely LOVE the energy Chiblee brings to these games. I'm so glad he and Justin and been in a ton of NL content.

Sinvicta is the perfect example of intelligence and wisdom being different stats

That initial conversation where they got so much wrong about Machu Picchu tilted me off the planet and I was never allowed to recover. Holy hell. EDIT: AFRICA IS WHERE DARWIN DID HIS RESEARCH?!? EDIT EDIT: WTF IS A MENORAH?!?!?!?

[@mellowcorpsep6665]

that is who you become when u make the conscious decision to remember phone numbers

[@driftwisp2797]

I can't believe they did Evolution for Darwin and Africa when Organ was the bomb Edit: And Oktoberfest when Calendar is a bomb and Mug is on the other team

[@utterpreshure8468]

dude when they didn't realize bronze was related to caesar I wanted to tilt off the edge, down by the corner

[@utterpreshure8468]

WAIT IT WASNT CAESAR WHAT HOW

[@kylerivera3470]

That second round had some terrible clues. Not only were the clues more than a bit of a stretch, but there were obvious answers to the hints from both the enemy and neutral cards. The blue team cards actually had a really easy set of cards. All you need is [Deadly 3], [War 2], and [Legal 2]. Those shouldn't have many alternate answers and clearly indicate the blue team cards. You would still need something for "Mug", but since the enemies got that one the first round there wouldn't have been an issue.

[@jakemcdonald1542]

Getting the lore to the bronze menorah/chain discourse 2 episodes later is great

[@jordangreyling8820]

The unit of measurement watt is a commonly used unit of measurement and you don't know there was a scientist called watt? And stefan Churchill?????

Man them not knowing Machu Picchu, hurt and then Kory saying its a Mayan city hurt even more like physical pain to my latam heart

[@RyeBread271]

Clue: POG 3 The words: new codenames video

[@misterbuckethead]

chib making ryan laugh is my favorite thing ever

[@Mathmachine]

I have this feeling that NL's worst clue is still better than most other people's best clues.

[@subzerosanijs]

No one compares to Issac E-sports champion Northen N Lion.

[@CBfromFL]

Ryan's clues were pretty mid this episode especially since he almost lost to "Steven"

[@MedievalSolutions]

A wrong feeling, but sure, yes.

Codenames is so poggie

I really assumed he was linking blizzard with the town of Churchill in Manitoba.

[@N00bsaur]

For that last game: blizzard 2 (icicle and storm), treaty 4 (Churchill, victory, contract, court), blood 2 (razor and contract if they didn’t get it)

who is steven eiffel ? the builder of the eiffel tower is Gustave Eiffel ...

[@Xman360z]

How does the game know which words are correct?

[@emeraldfir9]

It decides which are red blue and bystanders in the beginning and the spymasters see each words color

[@stingersplash]

Worst clue eh? Which one because the first three were pretty bad. Wimbledon has doubles so team definitely worked. But hey a victory is still claimed because of self sabotage by Chib.
