The Intrepid is fantastic and everyone should go to it if they find themselves in NYC.

PSXer posted:Oh sure, pick the automotive category last and then run out of time with 3 clues left. I see how it is. Had to laugh at Alex giving the one-minute warning and the next clue being a huge rambling mess with visual aids that boiled down to "identify CO2".

Why the incredulity at guessing sloth, Alex? Sloths are classified by their number of toes and it's not unheard of for them to be exotic pets.

They forgive stuff that doesn't materially change the answer when it's obvious you know what you mean, like mispronouncing a vowel, so wrong verb tense is a gimme. AFAIK the only time you have to be super-precise is when it's the title of a specific work and even then they'll let slide something like forgetting the "the" at the start (especially in round 1).

Alex said as much like five seconds after announcing Scarlett as the winner, don't rush away to post so fast next time. Austin's schtick was fun once or twice but seeing constant affectations and goofery for two weeks was a bit much, I'm glad he's done.
