Let's Play LIFEBOATS

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

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

"*I don't understand - I was so cruel to everybody.* "
―Tom
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "women and children first, Adam last".
* Who is going to *politic their way to safety*, who will *discover there's just no more room on this floating door*?
* Real mean, real personal, real fast. Is there any better BGC games?
* Played for laughs as usual, but there is something sweet and endearing about checking in with everyone emotionally before the nastiness starts. Lovely people. Happy happy.
* Rosie's having none of it. Laurie accepts an unspoken apology. Tom is above it. Sullivan is a fan. Blair needs to try not to fuck it up.
* All hail the Tower of Destiny!
* Rosie appreciates the table giving her space and silence to talk uninterrupted.
* Thanks for the ocean noises, James.
* We have Orange Thunder, Purple Shmurple, Pretty Boat for a White Boat, The Red She-Devil, Red Hot Too Hot Dead, Boatel California, Blackboat the Pi-Boat.
* ~~JOKE OF THE DAY~~ BOAT OF THE DAY: All right, boats! (For the Boatreons.. reminding you of who you oar, boats are in etc. etc. etc. I'm not recording them all - it's very pun-heavy. )
* Tactical voting straight from launch - did we really expect anything else?
* Adam: "Blair, that would be you, you little fucking quisling." "This starts to feel personal after a while." "It's anti-Blampied in here".
* SingalongaNRB: lots of sea shanties, as you'd expect. "Oh the boaty boaty"
* Rosie: "This is outrageous! THAT worked?" "What the fuck is happening here?"
* BOAT OF THE ~~DAY~~ BAY: Nicholls and Brown comedy? More like Nicholls and Drown comedy!
* BOAT IN THE BAY: Redboat Redampboat.
* Laurie: "Everyone can talk quietly, it's in the rules".
* Bad things happen when you make a fuss, apparently.
* Adam gets gleeful the second the vicious spotlight moves off him.
* Tom: "We won't kick you out, we probably won't kick you out, we're... we're going to kick you out".
* Betrayal? That was the first round. Does that even count any more?
* Adam will betray everyone happily, but he always apologises to Sullivan. That's probably better in some way.
* Rosie's lost a lot of good, innocent men. It's a tragedy.
* Tom: "I"m going to see it as a show of solidarity... and I'll probably forget it."
* Sullivan pipes the brave boys to their death.
* BOAT OF THE BOAT: Oh the boaty boaty! Boat, boat, boat, boat, boat boat boat.
* Sweet as Blair is, she has a devilish streak a mile wide. She's definitely not a threat, though.
* This game hates Laurie, the sea is full of bobbing ginger corpses.
* Adam doesn't need friends, he has people he pays to play board games with him.
