| Jun 22, 2020 at 19:30 | comment | added | CreativiTimothy | I would agree with Arcanist. However, I play an online version of the game, so there is no facial expressions/body language from the spymaster, so the field operative can ramble as much as they want about the clue and even say "I know what it is", and it (usually) does not cause the spymaster to respond back giving more hints. I agree with Cesar that you can just not look at the spymaster in real life. | |

I agree that doing so to get a reaction is against the spirit, but doing so just to inform (without wanting/looking for a reaction or confirmation) is okay. | |

I disagree. In my opinion it's focused on emphasising the idea that the information flow at the game table should be strictly limited as per rules. I think this is the correct answer. | |
| May 16, 2020 at 18:50 | comment | added | StartPlayer | The question is about what the field operatives can and can't say. The quoted paragraph is about the what the field operative can and can't say in particular with regard to not saying things in 'the spirit of the game' How does that not have a bearing on information from operative to spymaster? | |
