Codenames Tournament!
Navi and I will be hosting a Codenames 2v2 Tournament on Saturday 26th June, at 20:00UTC.
It will be an elimination-style event, where teams of two (one Operative and one Spymaster) play each other, and losing teams will be knocked out from the tournament. Winning teams will then move on to compete for a grand prize of 25M.
Everyone is welcome to come and spectate the matches in Discord, and discuss what's going on in voice chat.
We are looking to try get a total of 8 teams (16 players), so make sure that you sign up early in case we need to make any changes. You can sign up by messaging either George#9566 or Jonathan(Navi)#1009 on Discord.
The tournament is open for everyone, and Codenames is easy to learn + tons of fun.
If you are unfamiliar with Codenames or want to get some practice in beforehand, games take place regularly in the #other-games channel in the Discord server where you're always welcome to join. You can also check out codenames.game/ to familiarise yourself.
Rules and Regulations:
Two players per team: no more and no less.
Clues given by the Spymaster must relate to the meanings of the words on the board. They must not relate to how the words are spelled, if the words rhyme, sound similar, or refer to the position of the words on the board.
For example, the clue "Corner" would not be acceptable if it was implying the correct word was in the corner of the board. However, the clue "Corner" would be acceptable if it were hinting at the word "triangle" because triangles have corners.
Clues should also be one word clues, unless referring to a specific concept.
For example, the clue "New York" would be acceptable, because New York is a city in America. On the other hand, the clue "Old Car" would not be acceptable.
We look forward to seeing you there!
