About Pinpoint #873
- Pinpoint #873 gives 5 clue words: Cargo ships, Wrestling matches, Climbing walls, Bank accounts (after big deposits), Phone calls (“please wait!”).
- The answer is the category that links all of them.
- All five clues are multi-word phrases; the longest is clue 4 at five words, and the shortest clues, 1, 2, and 3, run to two words each.
- Clues 4 and 5 add a note in parentheses.
- Four clues end in -s, so weigh a verb reading alongside the plural noun.
- The note "(after big deposits)" in clue 4 tells you which sense is meant, so settle that reading first and test it against the other clues.
