Let's Play SUSHI GO PARTY

**Let's Play SUSHI GO PARTY** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*This is a very confident spooning.*"
―Adam
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "I'm going to say it again, I'm going to say it again: sushi is not raw fish ok? What sushi is, is anything that is made with a special vinegared rice. Alright? It's got nothing to do with the fish - you're thinking of sashimi, everyone. You're thinking of sash-"
* Who will be *maki-ng loads of points* and who will *end up tempur-ious*?
* The picture on the new intro has changed back. (The Sexy Legends are gone again, and Tom in a spacesuit in *Let's Play NEMESIS LOCKDOWN* is back.)
* In the NRB timeline, the release date of this episode is a hugely positive time: Clocktower Season 2 Kickstarter is just about to close successfully, the new studio is established, the channel just went over 200,000 subscribers and 30,000,000 video views and two separate videos are approaching a million views each. Good things are happening - and possibly connected, everyone seems positively giddy today. Light, joyful, and happy NRB. The best kind of NRB.
* Teri spot! Tiny Teri spot! Hi Teri! It's too early for this much happy shrieking.
* Blair's back! We've missed her - she hasn't been on the channel since April.
* The faces on the cards are so cute, we can't even. Blair and Laurie do their best card face impressions. It's impossible to decide whose is best. Laurie's cute, as we know.
* Sullivan goes straight for dessert. Adam: "He just saw the word 'tea'." "Sullivan - I swear to fucking Christ..." He's completely filled up on ice cream.
* Adam's trying to corner a market and he's very excited about it.
* Sullivan identifies exactly the issue with a sushi train.
* That was quite a bit of fun. Blair cracks first.
* Singalonga NRB: 'Oh Holy Shit!' A very unpleasant snippet of the Jurassic Park theme. 'Get the soup out for the lads'. 'Sweet and cool' (that one's really dumb).
* The pieces are kissing. Holly doesn't know why this always happens. Sullivan: "Kissing is adorable" but Adam and Sullivan say Teri's not keen. Adam as Teri: "I face crash and there will be a winner and it will be me". Our casts' impressions of Teri are never not funny.
* The musicians talk detailed music stuff. Laurie: "BORING! PLAY SUSHI!" - he only wants to talk about bouldering.
* Who will give up on sashimi first? Specifically - which of the 3 most stubborn and competitive members of our cast will give up on sashimi and let the others have it, first?
* Holly has a game element, wonder what she will do with it? "Yeah, most of his games are covered in my saliva."
* We shout 'Fuck you!' at one another for a while.
* Holly: "You said 'it's all about me-so!'" Teri approved. Sullivan consumes his miso slurp by slurp.
* Holly's sticking the knife into Adam. She's offering to help him, bless. He's plotting revenge. Basically, business as usual. All board games are, in the end, about Adam's feelings.
* Teri loves the word 'pud'.
* A lovely reference there from Adam and Teri to the Aunty Donna sketch *Always Room for Christmas Pud*. (This makes one of our editors very very happy.)
* Holly can't shuffle cards - she drives the rest of them to distraction, although Blair finds it soothing. Holly thinks she does ok. Holly: "In comparison to the average Joe?" Sullivan: "You are much worse".
* The second game is much more tense because of all the theft and the negative scoring.
* Adam: "Holly, would you like to kick Blair while she's down?" Turns out she does.
* You can't spoon the dead - but that makes sense, actually.
* Holly's attempting to be a heel - but it's just not in her.
* Unexpected Blackadder quote which tickles Sullivan mightily.
* Someone's been spreading pudding in the Old West. And we've gone. Sullivan: "What a delicious disaster!"
* Blair: "I got so fucked by pudding!"
