Detailed description

"It's time to reveal all clues to all players: bird [player1], Round [player2], Thermostat [player3], wasp [player4], home [player5], home [player6]"
2) If the interface allows to show a message log only to certain players, show a message similar to this one for all players EXCEPT THE GUESSER right after the judge validates
"Validated clues: clue1 [player1], clue2[player2] Invalidated clues: clue3[player3], clue4 [player4] (the guesser does not see this message!)"

"Validated clues: clue1 [player1], clue2[player2]" (for everyone)
"Invalidated clues: clue3[player3], clue4 [player4] (the guesser does not see this message!)" (not for guesser)
Maybe the log could be improved to something like this:
"It's time to reveal all clues to all players: clue1 [player1 - validated], clue2 [player2 - validated], clue3 [player3 - automatically invalidated], clue4 [player4 - automatically invalidated], clue5 [player5 - invalidated by playerX], clue6 [player6 - invalidated by playerX]"
So for each clue the info would be the name of the player who gave it and what happened with it (validated / automatically invalidated / invalidated by playerX)
I see a potential for misunderstandings and arguments with the current state of the logs as fair players would not easily identify players not up to their judge responsibilities.
"The word was Flight. Players gave these clues: bird [player1], Round [player2], Thermostat [player3], wasp [player4], home [player5], home [player6]"
This is because in the chat people regularly discuss clues after the person has guessed the word.
For example, they may say, "I really liked Raven's clue. Thank you".
And then the rest of us are left wondering, "Which was Raven's clue?" So then we have to ask in the chat.
But if these details commonly appear in the interface on the side, then it will be common knowledge who gave what clue.
Maybe you can simply show this by using strike-through text formatting.
Here's an image of strike-through text formatting:
