Let's Play FEED THE KRAKEN

**Let's Play FEED THE KRAKEN** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*I don't want you on my ship any more ... but I don't know how to get rid of you!*"
―Izzy
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "the worst rule you've ever heard of, but you have heard of it".
* Who is going to be *a dead man with lots of men on their chest*? Who is going to be *going down to Davy Jones's locker*? Adam: "These are the pirate references I know..."
* It's our favourite - group social deduction.
* Izzy's back after a long absence - we haven't seen her since *Let's Play BRISTOL 1350* in September 2022.
* Holly's doing a witchy prediction but is sadly lacking in x-ray vision.
* Sullivan is the prettiest, Laurie the angriest and Izzy the loudest apparently. Adam pulls a mild bait and switch on Jon.
* We can play along at home while the pirates open one eye to be thematic. James makes a lovely graphic - thanks James!
* Tilly's a polite captain, it's going to get her real killed. She's choosing her staff based on proximity and eye contact, which seems like a fine plan. Her captaincy is heavy on the healthy breakfast options - reception is very mixed, but the late addition of hash browns may have swung the vote.
* Holly's already eyeing up the plastic toys. She's pretty much only just doing what she promised she would, though. And getting pouty.
* Stafford is a pirate town, unexpectedly.
* The strains of leadership drive some of us to the bottle, sadly. Now Jon's in charge.
* Adam and Sullivan have some unresolved childhood trauma about not being chosen for things. And they ended up as *actors*, you say? Shocking.
* Teri wave! Hi Teri! Quite tentacly.
* Holly's face is so expressive, it pretty much needs its own seat at the table at this point. She does swear a lot more when she's lying...
* Jon: "Ye be kissing me grits ... which I'm also serving at the buffet". They're sun-kissed grits now.
* Tilly feels rejected from the cult - Laurie says she's not threatening enough. Jon: "You'd be great in the cult - you're sycophantic, got no backbone ... everything you need in a cult". Sullivan agrees: she's got no self-worth - is that *because* or *why* she's an actor?
* Adam: "We're off duty, having a lovely time in the mess" Sullivan: "Oh, I'm too lazy"
* Izzy's going big - straight into a death cult. Adam: "Not the vibe you immediately give off, Izzy". Another good James mockup.
* Man who knows nothing about football attempts to talk about football.
* Holly thinks if we choose someone for imposed silence it's going to be her. I reckon she might just be right.
* Sullivan lasts an admirably and surprisingly long time before he breaks over the 'Leftenant' 'Lootenant' stuff.
* If Izzy goes overboard, she's taking the food with her.
* *Framed for Filth: The Holly Musgrave Story*
* Laurie just wants guns. He just really likes guns.
* We've got mixed feelings about the promised flogging.
* Tilly to Sullivan: "I always think you have such a kind face and you can't be lying. And then you do. And then I'm really annoyed at myself".
* The accusations are coming thick and fast now - Sullivan is being gaslit or maybe he's a pirate, Holly's the cult leader, or maybe it's Izzy. Jon's playing outed evil and even he's not keeping his story straight.
* A mutiny! And then some more... Very tactical power swapping.
* JOKE OF THE DAY! Let bye-guns be bye-guns.
* JOKE OF THE DAY! in smaller font, much smaller. They're very open, these guns - bi-guns.
* JOKE OF THE DAY! in all caps. Apparently we needed a fuller explanation - let bisexual guns be bisexual guns.
* Jon helping is ... not helping.
* Singalonga NRB: "They both reached for the gun" - we've done Chicago before, I think.
* Let's explore gender stereotyping.
* Man overboard!
* Heart of the cards? Shart of the fards more like.
* As Izzy told the police - she's not evil, she just can't remember rules.
* Another Board Game Club win for Tilly! She's very very happy!
* This was tense right up to the last turn of the cards - marvellous.
