How many timer tokens does each turn use, and do you spend one after every clue?
The designer confirmed one token per turn, which matches the rulebook's How to Play section.

Exactly one. Every turn uses one timer token: the clue-giver places it when the guesser hits a bystander, or the guesser takes it to end the turn voluntarily. Correct guesses cost nothing, so a streak of correct guesses still ends with one token.
