How to play this question
On your turn you get one guess and 30 seconds. Say the first thing that comes to mind — for a prompt like this, the instinctive answer is usually somewhere in the top three. Later in the round, when the obvious slots are gone, it pays to swing for something unusual.
Guesses are matched loosely, so plurals, typos and close synonyms still flip the slot.
