"*Were you the fake artist? No, course you weren't, it was me*"
―Adam
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "der Kampf ist noch nicht vorbei."
* It's time to *separate the Picassos from the pick-assholes*.
* We're in COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* Adam is reigning champion, but luckily not being an arse about it.
* Yoga Man Laurie with the call back.
* Sullivan's still sporting his sunburn from the previous recording. He's the little red prince.
* Blair makes a little beep when she's happy.
* We're creating eldritch creatures from our nightmares.
* Dolphins get together and beat up sharks for fun. Possibly after getting high on puffer fish.
* Dom hates Sullivan. There may be some grudges following us from Saboteur.
* Blair thinks Tom's drawing props - which is adorable, but very wrong.
* Adam never looks more shifty than when he's not the bad guy.
* The bullshit police are on the way for Dom.
* We've descended fairly quickly, and predictably into screeching accusations and protestations of innocence. There's a constant stream of "you have no idea what you're doing, what the hell's that?" and "you're making it far too easy to guess".
* The animals really are hideous.
* We never knew Blair would be capable of such deceit. Plus, bigblair.com!
* And Laurie's back on top!

* Dom 2
* Lucie 2
* Adam 4
* Sullivan 4

Let's Play PANDEMIC

**Let's Play PANDEMIC** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*Did you learn nothing this past year?*"
―Blair
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "follow the guidance, unless the guidance doesn't make any goddamn sense, in which case just don't be a dick".
* One way to win, three ways to lose.
* We're in COVID restrictions (hah, the irony), hence Zoom.
* This is a co-op, which is a nice change for BGC.
* Blair's back - we were very worried about her.
* Sullivan forgot to mention that he doesn't actually know how to play this game.
* We're just going to have to acknowledge the obvious joke and move on from it.
* We're totally definitely going to win this game. Adam will eat all of Sullivan's hats if we don't. Luckily although Sully has a lot of hats, he's lost them all.
* Adam's on the pulse of contemporary culture.
* Not only are we going to win, we're also going to avoid all outbreaks.
* Oh whoopsie, an outbreak.
* In a possibly significant misunderstanding of the game mechanic, we're planning to wipe out Tokyo. That will help our Olympics plans.
* It's all Jon's fault. Sullivan is disappointed.
* Sullivan wouldn't be very good at cosplay, but we do revere his name.
* Adam's growing as a person, but not much.
* We're 2 diseases down and I think there's a whiff of overconfidence in the air.
* Blair's a real disappointment.
* There's a lot of movie reviews, for a BGC.
* Jon Gracey is a signal tower, we're going to party in Washington. Adam's a bit busy though, probably will give it a swerve.
* I think we may be getting very slightly nervous now. Sullivan thinks we're going to be fine. Hmm.
* Probably best we don't get distracted fighting for glory right now.
* In a stunning turn of events, our over-confidence bit us right on the bottom. It's the feel-bad story humanity needs right now - losing against disease.
* But... WAIT! we're going to win! We counted the cards wrong. There's now genuine excitement.
* If we've learned anything, it's that as soon as we get a vaccine all our problems are over.
* Sullivan is inevitably going to save the world.
* Aaaaaaaand, nope. Counted the cards, missed the cubes. Idiots. Off to scream into pillows.

Jonny High Jump

**Jonny High Jump** was a character created by a misheard greeting from Adam to Jon in *Let's Play SKULL*. The High Jump universe gradually expanded to include other characters.

" *Look at him leap! Look at him bound!* "
― Laurie
At the beginning of the episode, Adam greeted "Jon, hi Jon". Jon misheard this as "Jon High Jump" and a bit was born. By the end of the episode, the universe had expanded to include Jonny's sidekick Bobby Littlelegs (Blair but voiced by Sullivan) and Inspector/ Detective/ Superintendent Titwhistles. The characters started as a detective duo, but soon became criminals sought by the Inspector.

In the following episode, *Let's Play DOBBINS OR BOBBINS*, Jon spent some time drawing the High Jump characters, adding Bigblair.com who debuted the same week.
Lord of the Board Series 2

Spoilers ahead!*This article contains spoilers for **Lord of the Board Series 2**. Be warned!*

## *Lord of the Board Series 2*

### Episodes

1 Livestream

**Lord Of The Board Series 2** is the 2nd annual iteration of the board game tournament, Lord of the Board on the No Rolls Barred channel.

"*It looked a lot better on Brooke.*"
―Dom

The 2nd tournament was announced as a live event on 17 November 2023.

Promos began to be released on 9 November through No Rolls Barred social channels, and confirmed that games would be chosen by vote during the livestream.

The Livestream began at 11 am (UK time) on 17 November 2023, running for 10 hours 37 minutes. It was sponsored by Zatu Games who provided all games.

The tournament was won by Jon, who took the Lord of the Board title.

### Promos

One Try Teri

**One Try Teri** refers to the incredible knack Teri has for achieving really impressive board game feats on her first try.

Teri doesn't appear on camera very often, nor does she play in many on-screen games. However, when she does, she has a record of managing to do something that the cast is struggling with, on her first and only try.

Credit for this one goes to courtney-ray in the YouTube comments for *Let's Play WHAT NEXT?.*

## Sightings

* *Candy Land, BUT SOMEHOW WORSE* - Sullivan and Adam were trying to guess the next card, in order to move their pieces round the board. When they guessed incorrectly, they drank a shot of sherry (it's a Christmas thing). Teri began to mock them for their incompetence, so they challenged her to have a go. Teri guessed the colour correctly with one try (starts at 0:14:50). It's this guess, in part, which meant that Sullivan managed to come 3rd in a 2 player game.
* *Pictionary, But IMPOSSIBLE MODE* is Teri's first (semi) on camera game, where she competed against Adam and Sullivan. Her first game - her first win!
* *Let's Play WHAT NEXT?* is a game heavily focussed on dexterity. One of the challenges was to catch a game card in one hand. Most of the cast tried this with no success at all. Teri decided she would like to have a go. Laurie threw her a card and she caught it in one try (starts at 0:58:37).
* In *Let's Play FAST & FURIOUS: HIGHWAY HEIST*, Teri was tragically and uncharacteristically able to achieve the necessary final dice roll, after everyone else had tried. What a refreshing dose of humanity, which merely reinforces her true greatness.
* *Yahtzee, But With LYING* - At the beginning of the episode, Adam taunted Teri by saying she should uphold her "One Try Teri" reputation by rolling a Yahtzee in one try. She rolled a Full House and claimed she was "just warming up". Later, at the end of the episode, Teri was tasked with helping Sullivan play while blindfolded, and ended up rolling the Yahtzee (therefore upholding her reputation).

No Holds Board

This article is an exception to the NRB rule!This article falls outside the realm of content on the No Rolls Barred channel, but due to its very close link with NRB content, it will be allowed on this wiki.

## *No Holds Board*

### Episodes

13 (as of 30 Nov 2023)

**No Holds Board** is a series on the PartsFUNknown channel based upon the No Rolls Barred series Board Game Club, originally hosted by Adam. In the series, a mix of NRB and PFK personalities play board games whose themes have been modified to be about wrestling.

The series began after the transition of WrestleTalk to a new base of operations, and initially ran for four episodes before taking a break, then returning for a second series. Its name is a reversal of No Rolls Barred, itself based on the wrestling terminology of 'no holds barred'.

Extended versions of each episode are available through the WrestleTalk Patreon. Early access to the standard episodes was provided in the same way.
Mookle

**Mookle** is a character played by Sullivan and by Tom in *Let's Play FIASCO*.

Mookle was a mook employed by Mayor Clean, along with his partner and twin brother, Muckle. The pair are extremely violent and are responsible for the torture and severe beating of both Jensen Johnson-Jonson Jonson-Johnson and Walter Wheresmyson.

He possibly had a brief (lunchtime only) liaison with Janice Jonson-Johnson Johnson-Jonson,

At the end of the events in Fiasco, the pair abandoned their life of crime to fulfil their long-held ambition of opening a bakery.
Paranormal Detectives (game)

**Paranormal Detectives** is a game in which players play psychic detectives who commune with a ghost in order to discover how they died and bring justice to the deceased.

"*Before I played this game, I thought this was 'Mysterium But Impossible'. Now, I realise it's 'Mysterium But Possible, But Made Impossible By The Idiots You Play With'.*"
―Dom

## Description

This is a game all about lateral thinking. A group of psychic detectives (either playing cooperatively or competitively) must ask the ghost, a separate player who knows the exact cause of death, how they died. In order to win, detectives need a Who, Why, Where, How and Weapon. However, players cannot ask yes or no questions and the ghost can only answer in a certain method.

There are nine ways the ghost can show information - Hangman's Knot, Tarot Cards, Talking Board, Ghost Meter, Ghost Touch, Whispers of Shadows, Haunted Mirror, Ghost Scream and Quill Pen. The detective must decide on a question and a form which the ghost then performs. The detectives then get two guesses to try and figure out the murder.

## Significant Moments

### Let's Play PARANORMAL DETECTIVES

* Instead of playing it competitively, our rebrand of Morons Unite are playing it cooperatively. Let's see how well this goes.
* The constant bickering between Dom and Rosie is such a delight, with Sullivan and Lorna giggling away in the background. Laurie's frequent pained side-eyes to the camera are just a part of Board Game Club.
* They don't get it in the end, but they get very close!

## Versions Featured

### Paranormal Detectives

***Paranormal Detectives*** is the base game with a variety of death stories for the ghosts to choose from, such as mishaps at restaurants and holidays gone wrong.

## Trivia

* Paranormal Detectives features on the *10 Board Games Like Cluedo But BETTER* Collection Starter video.

### Winners

Game 1: Blair; Game 2: Jon; Game 3: Laurie; Game 4: Tom; Overall: Tom, based on final game

### Series

Board Game Club

**Let's Play COUP** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*I never lie, Tom - and that's the truth.*"
―Jon
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "a bollocks lie told by a bollocks liar".
* We're in COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* It's a bluffing, mean game - hooray.
* Tom's not really the reigning champion, but we may have decided it doesn't really matter.
* Kiss those grits, as is tradition.
* Sullivan is a jolly Duke, or a red-faced little chipmunk, or a prince among men, or Michael Caine.
* Tom takes the action with the least possible interaction in the game.
* Laurie's radical new approach to the game - don't lie.
* You never challenge the duke!
* Tom had the twins from the shining. It moved him to his first words of the game.
* Adam's trying to use Sullivan as his minion. Not for the first time, not for the last. It worked, then backfired.
* Sullivan is peak British.
* Tom has moved beyond small concepts as hate and love. No further questions needed.
* Laurie and Adam have settled into their petty grudge-match. A theme to which we will often return.
* Laurie's the wicked sweet duke, the kickass duke.
* Sullivan: "You're about to get ambassadored bitch." The title of many a diplomat's autobiography.
* Bigballsonblair.com
* Tom's making moral judgements.
* Tom: "Hey Jon, that's a lot of 'being alive' you've got there."
* Brooke apparently looks up to Blair. Because she's slightly shorter than her.
* Sullivan is a 'professional writer' - damn, Tom.
* Hey, game reviews! That's a novel idea. Sullivan gives the game 12 Sullivans out of 5. There are some complicated scoring rules, is the point.
* Someone's a bit pouty, just because they're out first in every single game.
* Death threat time.
* There's a surprising amount of political commentary. Entertainment *and* information.
* Jon: "Oh Laurie, petty revenge is going to be the end of you."
* Adam: "There's nothing petty about Tom's vengeance".
* Blair is astonishingly cold-blooded.
* Sullivan would like us to buy in to his carefully curated image.
* Jon laughs so much he gets light-headed.
* Sullivan: "Like any good parasite, you wouldn't kill off the host, would you Tom?"
* Adam: "Tom, you did it by murdering and exploiting your friends, how does that make you feel?" Tom: "I feel nothing."
NRB Board Game Tournament 2022 ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

The **NRB Board Game Tournament 2022 ANNOUNCEMENT!!!** was a video announcing the first series of Lord Of The Board.

"*Who at No Rolls Barred is the best at board games? It's a question that we've been asked a lot - is it me? is it Laurie? is it me?*"
―Adam
## Notable Moments

* Oli wanted this series called War Games, but neither Adam nor Laurie can do impressions of William Regal, so that doesn't work. Ah, you can take the boys out of wrestling but etc. etc.
* Adam does the competitor draw.
* We don't get to see many 2 player games on the channel, so this is a good opportunity to do them.
* The second draw is for the games - Adam's not happy about the game drawn for his tie with Blair, as it's her favourite.
* The prize is as yet unclear.
Let's Play AVALON

### Winners

Game 1: Good (Adam, Brooke, Isaac, Tom); Game 2: Good (Adam, Brooke, Sullivan, Tom); Game 3: Evil (Adam, Blair, Jon)

### Series

Board Game Club

**Let's Play AVALON** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*It's not enough full stop, Tom, quite frankly.*"
―Jon
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "Adam's always evil. Except actually, statistically most of the time he isn't, so apologise".
* Off we go *to Camelot, it is a very silly place*.
* We're recording at the tail end of the UK COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* We're still a little bruised by Pandemic.
* Isaac's here because he heard they were playing a game with big lying bastards in it.
* Brooke has fallen into toilets approximately 7 times in her life. Sullivan takes her on a quest in case she is left alone to drown in the latrine.
* The audience can play along with this one.
* We're definitely going to win this one, just like Pandemic.
* Jon's hella sus now, but sadly it's his quest next.
* Brooke always takes it personally when Sullivan is evil.
* Good won the quest section and won the Merlin choice as well.
* Jon's doing his werewolf narration, very apt.
* We may have found the theme for the game... Jon: "Then we kiss." Sullivan: "Yes, we kiss loads."
* Our quest is for cleaning products from ye olde B&Q.
* Blair's quest is for a dirty toilet to clean. Perhaps Brooke will be trapped down it. Our ambitions are modest. Man, can we spin this nonsense out or what?
* Now it looks bad for Isaac. He's unlikely to be planning to poison the king, but he may be planning to use the bleach on the wrong surface.
* We're still questing for cleaning products - it's not the most gripping of tales, admittedly.
* Isaac: "Tom, can you give us something, stop being so stonefaced!" Tom: "Let me have my schtick".
* Good won the quest section and the Merlin choice.
* Adam: "I swear! Can we have some goddamn stakes?" Sullivan: "OK, we're getting new steaks for the king and it's going to be delicious".
* Historically, Blair is evil. Her and Brooke need to go for a drink and clear the air. There may be some parent polyamory going on.
* Brooke is the Queen of the Swamp, but that's where Tom died, so that may be shady. This quest is to clear Blair's sassy attitude.
* We finally get a quest worthy of the name - looking for a phoenix feather, although viagra is involved somehow and it's mating season.
* Tom's not petty, but his decisions are still laced with interpersonal vitriol.
* If you can't trust any of the cast, what's your option?
* Tom's finally one with the undergrowth.
* Adam's mask slipped and everyone saw but they never noticed Blair coming up behind.

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

**Let's Play WITS & WAGERS II** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*I was just backing my friends.*"
―Sullivan
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "the house always wins - unless the house is Adam".
* Who will *know when to hold 'em*? Who will *know when to fold 'em*?
* 2.63! That's a deep deep cut.
* It's been a very long time since we first played this - and this is our first in-person version.
* During the baby boom, babies exploded and took out a lot of the US population, apparently.
* Adam: "300 for Laurie being the cleverest little sausage."
* Holly: "What is map?"
* We can firmly agree that there is shitloads of water.
* Blair finally gets money - that's nice. And then loses it all.
* Holly: "In my mind, the Red Baron is a kind of plane. Like a Ford Fiesta is a car."
* Holly thinks he shot down more planes than there actually were in the sky at the time. Sullivan is furious - hitting him in his history feels.
* Adam: "This is harder than shooting down a plane." If it does turn out to be 4000 we're going to shut down the channel.
* Blair: "I feel like 80 is not really enough to create a name for yourself." Sullivan: "Imagine killing 80 people in your life and going 'that's not really noteworthy'"
* POE-K OF THE DAY! Edgar Allan Pissboy.
* Laurie snatched it at the last minute from Adam.
* Adam: "If you pause the video, you can pause it at the moment my heart breaks in two."
* Holly: "I think 12 ft 9 is completely reasonable."
* Blair's made more money in this single turn than in the whole of the last game.
* Singalonga NRB: 'Stupid Madonna'
* Sullivan: "People have described me as well read. I don't read books - I can't read!"
* Tiny round of applause for Andorra.
* Sullivan is cleaning up, this game.
* Blair: "I'm going to believe in myself... no I'm not."
* The final episode of *Oprah* turns out to be surprisingly unpopular. Several people lose everything.
* Adam's organising content, Laurie just wants to win.
* Sullivan: "Holly has a 6th sense for when somebody's on the brink of a psychological break and then she goes 'oh, oh, let me just [flip them]."

## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "that living well is not having all the answers, but pursuing unanswerable questions in good company."
* Who will be *able to hear me yell-a*? Who will be *putting me through hell-a*?
* For a game about making deep connections with friends, we have not only Adam/Laurie, but also Sullivan/Dom. Hmmm.
* Smiling broadly can look so threatening sometimes, can't it?
* Sully's family, including his 5 sisters, forgot his 26th birthday. It almost brought us to tears. Luckily Dom is here with some slightly uncomfortable sexual tension to take the sting out of the moment.
* All hail the Tower of Destiny! Its theme song now has lyrics. Kinda.
* If the game is dependent on close examination of pictures, there are going to be some downsides to limited vision.
* Birthday ghosts of dead pets, of course. This episode needs a pets-in-peril warning.
* Carley is an extraordinarily easy cry-er. As a fellow sufferer, I reckon we start a support group.
* Of all the special connections we would have predicted, would we have gone for *them* and *them*?
* Adam: "I've not seen anyone just so wholeheartedly reject the concept of a game before".
* Ah yes, a special connection with Dom. Apparently it may have earth-shattering consequences.
* On the other hand, a special connection with Sullivan may incur the supernatural wrath of Brooke Bourgeois. Not that *that* will stop Adam.
* Anything can be a secret and it makes Sullivan very cross.
* Do we have any fans in France? Let's explore hackneyed cultural stereotypes to find out.
* Teri spot! Hi Teri!

## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "no throwing plates".
* We're in COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* Adam is defending champion.
* Jon is demanding a steward's inquiry into Dobbins and Bobbins. Laurie says Adam is a shampion. Adam says they're embarrassing him in front of Pete.
* Delightful (TM Adam Blampied) debuts for BGC regulars Brooke and Rosie.
* All credit to James? for the editing job on this one - juggling several drawings at once and compiling the answers beautifully.
* Rude word timecheck 5 minutes, 23 seconds. Rosie's in the house, everyone!
* Adam gets the hate mail, he would like to minimise it if possible.
* Pete will give up the points, but will drag Laurie down with him
* Angry Laurie is among us. Adam thinks he's not taking the game seriously.
* Blair is Toad. It's an alarming impression, but good for all occasions.
* What's the difference between a mushroom and a toadstool? Between a dragon and a fat dragon?
* Rosie thinks Sullivan should lose a point for fat-shaming. Sullivan's views do not represent No Rolls Barred, who are a dragon body-positive YouTube channel and always have been. Although to be honest, the whole thing is a vehicle for political opinions. Not sure whose.
* Would wings have saved Brooke's picture? Unlikely.
* Once you start trying to get round the rules, the whole thing will fall apart. We're sticking with the Fat Dragon rule.

* Pete: "It's a helmet!" Adam: "You're a helmet, Pete".

Lord of the Board (title)

**Lord of the Board** is the title given to the winner of the annual Lord Of The Board series. Currently, Jon Gracey holds the title.

The name is based on the wrestling title "King of the Ring."

For a while, as per the rules, the reigning Lord of the Board wore their robes and crown. They carried their custom 3D printed NRB scepter to every Board Game Club episode, which can be used for bonking the Lord's subjects.

## Royal anthem

There was also a ceremonial greeting. When the Lord entered a room, everyone in the room stood and sang the Lord's anthem to the tune of "Here Comes the Bride," with pronouns changed to match the current monarch:

*Here comes the Lord!*

*Lord of the Board!*

*They are the Lord of the Lord of the Board!*
Let's Play PANDEMIC II

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

**Let's Play PANDEMIC II** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*I've got magic hands... all I have to do is waft them.*"
―Laurie
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "really hard to come up with, without referencing, you know, the thing".
* Can the *players solve a global health crisis* *or some other bleak reference*?
* Last time we played this, it didn't go well. But then we didn't have Laurie.
* Laurie is ginger Jesus and will save us all. Adam is purple Moses.
* This is real commitment to the theme - everyone is coughing.
* It's an after lunch game, so we're all a teensy bit giddy. Could be the gas leak again.
* Istanbul-not-Constantinople is apparently always *very slightly* funny.
* Blair is confident that we're absolutely fine. We're sure she's right.
* Two outbreaks would be bad, it would be sad, you wouldn't be glad, you'd be mad.
* INSULT OF THE DAY - best we don't repeat it. It turned us from Dr. Seuss to Guy Richie in an instant.
* Adam said the thing. Best hope the gods of hubris weren't listening. Oh. Whoopsie.
* Sullivan is such a giver, he's very bad at taking.
* "Don't be so silly, Batman" - it's a powerful catchphrase.
* Somehow, it's Blair's fault now.
* True humour is saying something slightly differently than it's normally said.
* JOKE OF THE YEAR - Chick-ago. You can't write this stuff, it's pure, once-in-a-generation wit.
* Adam's perfect ending to a board game - we're winning or losing on the final card pulls.
* Superb editor clarification again - well done team.
* Redemption!

Let's Play ISS VANGUARD

**Let's Play ISS VANGUARD** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

" *Awaken Realms, is this what you wanted us to showcase in your game?* "
― Adam
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "They mostly come at night. Mostly".
* Who will *take one small step for a man* and who will *take one giant leap for mankind*?
* Adam Blampied hair watch: blond at all times, which makes this at the latest December 2022 recording, as you'd expect given the upload date.
* This one's co-operative, which is great. They *always* work out well.
* Holly starting strong out of the gates with the giggles.
* This actually might be Laurie's greatest ever episode. Once he fixes on a character, he really does go all in.
* Trained actors can portray many complex emotions, and Laurie can do grumpy.
* Ah, Keith Moon. Is this what happened to Tony the Milkman when he retired from wrestling? What choice does a disgraced porn star have, other than to go into space? "In space, no-one has seen my peen". He does seem awfully keen on rectifying that though. Who would have thought that you could combine space exploration and live-streaming porn?
* Our cast provide us both voices and sound effects. There's some marvellous overacting here - like the very best of 70s scifi. A fine collection of accents are on display, too. We even get a tiny glimpse of Sullivan Beau Brown, Football Commentator.
* Adam can get a little bit pouty when people don't take boardgames seriously. And then there are moments of sheer NRB joy: *Oh I forgot, I'm a legend.*
* And there's Leeds, a curiously wayward city apparently.
* We get an impromptu Les Mis, so that's nice.
* Detailed instructions for fighting a baddie: you place the thing, you do the thing, you gotta get it.
* Who IS the main character here?
* All hail the Tower of Destiny!
* Yes girl! Murder is a girlboss move, apparently. Holly would like to apologise to feminism, though.
* It's a baby! Oh. Oops.

## Trivia

* Game introduction and rules are presented by Adam.
* An extended version of this episode is available on the No Rolls Barred Patreon.
* No room for talking heads in a ~~2 1/2 hour game~~ 3 hour shagquest.

* Not even 2 minutes in: Laurie is the largest member. Here we go then. Subtext is, after all, for cowards.
* Carley's good and old. Adam's a speed racer prick. Sully's a little Doctor Who motherfucker from Plymouth. Tilly is a pirate with mild road rage. Dom's channelling Jon - the ship may unravel at any moment.
* Dom: "Put tha seatbelts on, there's no dinner served, the airconditioning's broken and if anyone complains, they can walk".
* All hail the Tower of Destiny! aka space castle, the remix.
* Precision in all things - what's the point in rules if you don't follow them to the nth degree?

* Sullivan is the boy who fucked time.

Storytellers: Ben, Ken

Script: Trust No One by Ken Cheng

## General topics

* This is exactly a year since Ken's first Clocktower game on the channel.
* All roles are based on NRB cast.
* Interesting mechanics in play: change of role, change of alignment, blind characters, characters interacting with nomination, paranoia about the storyteller .
* We talk about cake for quite a while.
* Ben does actually seem to be winding Jon up this time - all part of the great feud between them.
