## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

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

"*An absolute mischaracterisation of two people just having a nice time at Board Game Club*"
―Adam
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "that's my line".
* Who will *satisfy Dennis Nedry by saying the magic word*?
* Very hushed Lord of the Board intro, with a bonus aaaawhooo!
* We've had extreme lunch, apparently.
* It's very token-tastic this one.
* Watching Adam unable to communicate directly is unexpectedly fascinating. It's not just the not speaking, it's the not waving of the hands either. We're left with a succession of grimaces.
* Everyone's in the wrong seats, the universe is mildly perturbed.
* Tilly's Adam impression is a teensy bit shrill.
* There's a good mix of incredible frustration and fast pace in this one.
* Adam's trying card whispering. It kind of works. At first.
* They're good at getting close to the answer but circling round it
* Brooke comes from a place where children are named after jello.
* The first person to say "I rest my case" wins the argument. Everyone knows that.
* Does the app man always speak like this?
* How many countries can we name in South America? Tilly can't help. She went to school in the North you see.
* Non-Patreons miss out on several minutes of Greggs chat. Several people get quite cross when this bleeds into the next round's questions.
* Adam will learn that there's no fun allowed at Board Game Club.
* Adam: "It's fucking you isn't it, you mayor son of a bitch?"
* Fabulous editor commentary - James?
* Werewolf games tend to work best when the werewolves remember to wake up.

## Trivia

* Game introduction and rules are presented by Sullivan.
* Chalkboard update - some wins on the board!
* An extended version of this episode is available on the No Rolls Barred Patreon.
* Lots of people, lots of games, so no talking heads.

### Series

No Rolls Barred Plays Blood On The Clocktower

**No Dashii Barred** is an episode of No Rolls Barred Plays Blood On The Clocktower.

This is a Patreon exclusive episode. For access and more information, become a Patron at patreon.com/NoRollsBarred.

"*Before you make the decision to gamble, I just want you to know exactly what's at stake.* "
―Ben
## Players and roles

Storytellers: Ben

Script: Sects & Violets

## General topics

* This is most of the cast's first S&V game, a rehearsal for the versions that were released as public episodes.
* Laurie is Cassandra - he works out the entire game, incredibly quickly.
* Jon's feud with Ben means he doesn't believe his character.
* Isaac is pure chaos and trying to incite risky play from everyone around him.
* Interesting mechanics in play: madness, poisoning, role-swapping.
* This episode was actually recorded before *Where's The Lie?* - Tom makes a reference in that one that can only refer to this, and in this episode the 'Get on Board' sign off is used, rather than 'Remain on Board' suggested there.
Love Letter (game)

**Love Letter** is a game in which players attempt to pass a love letter to a Princess, all the while fighting off the other suitors who are also trying to gain her affection.

"*Alright Dom, you've talked me into it. I was going to go for Sullivan, but I'm going to insist that Dom is the target of the next action.*"
―Adam
## Description

This is a micro-game of risk, deduction and luck. The base game is for 2-4 players and consists of a number of cards representing members of the court: princess, guard, baron and so on. Each card has a number and a possible action.

Players hold a single card. Each turn they draw a card from the deck and play either of their two. Possible actions include checking another player's card, forcing them to discard, swap and so on. The player who is the last holding a card, or who holds the highest value card once all the cards from the deck are drawn, scores a point at the end of the round. The overall winner is the first to 4 points.

## Significant Moments

### Let's Play LOVE LETTER (Patreon Exclusive)

* With 6 players, the cast played the Premium edition.
* Very bit-heavy silliness with petty grudges and targetting, as we know and love.
* Tom completely ran away with the game - several of the players scored 0 points.

### Let's Play LOVECRAFT LETTER

* While this version introduces insanity mechanics, the cast were noticeably more energetic during recording of this video, resulting in multiple bits spawning within the first ten minutes. According to Holly Musgrave: "We've had lunch."
* This episode featured many Cthulhu impressions involving squid-hands and a fancy voice.
* One of the major bits was Cthulhu-porn, with the winner's prize being that they get to have sex with their step-cousin, Cthulhu-style.

## Versions Featured

### Love Letter: Premium Edition

***Love Letter Premium*** is the deluxe version of the game cards and box. It also doubles the number of possible players, with the introduction of additional cards.

### Lovecraft Letter

***Lovecraft Letter*** sets the *Love Letter* system in the world of H.P. Lovecraft. It adds new cards with special "insanity" powers and a sanity check mechanic. Cthluhu can also help you win the game if you release it at the right time...

The scenario is now the 1920s, and an investigation into a series of mysterious events.

## Trivia

* Love Letter was featured in the *10 Great Board Games That Only Cost $10* and *Laurie's Top 10 Board Games Of All Time* Collection Starter videos.
Let's Play SNAKE OIL III

**Let's Play SNAKE OIL III** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*Straight up G, son*"
―Tom
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "be careful what you wish for".
* We're seeing out the end of the UK COVID restrictions, hence Zoom - but not for long.
* Snake Oil and Rosie. Oh heaven help us.
* Adam is a sports fan. Hardihar. Sullivan giggles.
* Blair's hit a new low.
* Tom is not accepting responsibility for consumer behaviour.
* Rivers must terminate in the sea, we all know that.
* Sullivan's even worse. *Rosie's* showing disdain, that's some sort of sign.
* Jon's not going to bore us with the science - hitech polymer is all we need to know.
* Rosie starts so reasonable, but then... Tom's found all sorts of additional horrifying uses.
* Let's all clap for help!
* Jon's picture helped not at all. Again, *Rosie* thinks this is horrifying.
* The faces as Rosie continues to speak, tell a story of their own.
* Adam: "I really thought I was going to come last in this round". He still might. Tom points out that Adam's product may result in something genuinely horrific and disrespectful rather than simply sex-positive. Best not let it off in the corpse pool.
* Sullivan's dad doesn't want the horn bomb.
* Adam spits water. It's Jon's fault.
* Tom's not sure that gangsters want to spend their free time pretending to be gangsters. He wants to spend his Sunday on a normal people simulator.
* Oh god, Jon's doing an accent. And so is Adam.
* Rosie's suggesting a drone strike, with a Mary Poppins flavour. You can't trust children, so that's ok.
* Blair's turning men into bicycles through a long and painless process.
* Sullivan's a vampire, so's Jon. Accents all over the place. We're all doing accents.
* Murder map, not murder app, Jon.
* Every round is a tiny bit worse.
* Paparazzi or goat? Either way, morality is not going to be an issue.
* Tom's may actually be the worst of the worst of the worst.
* The only celebrity Sullivan can think of is Trevor Brooking, who, to be fair, is unlikely to trouble present day paparazzi.
* We've suddenly started aiming for a very specific kind of audience. Oh lord make it stop. And now Adam's made himself ill. It's an interesting shoot.
* Sending your child to art college is enough to make them long for military service.
* Dead men in a bra trap experience no enjoyment.

## Scores

* Blair 0
* Tom 0
* Adam 1

Sexy Legends

The **Sexy Legends** was the team name for Tilly, Adam and Sully's team in *Let's Play DECRYPTO II*. Following this, Tilly has often named her team to be some form of Legends,

In *Let's Play MONIKERS*, Tilly named her team of Tom and Brooke the "Stable Legends", asserting that they were emotionally stable.

The Sexy Legends briefly reunited for their classic pose, in *Let's Play THUNDER ROAD VENDETTA*.
Let's Play SECRET IDENTITY

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

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

"*I'm just sad I disappointed Tom.*"
―Carley
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "Clark Kent".
* Who will *hold the keys to victory*?
* Rosie had to get the train! She deserves a much bigger welcome than Carley.
* Adam's a professional host, doncha know.
* JOKE OF THE DAY: Daisy Duck is Donald's duck-buddy.
* Carley hasn't cried yet today, but Board Game Club will do it, surely. She feels wrong in life in general, and this game is a good example.
* Tom: "if it is what I think it is, it's the most brilliant thing I've ever heard in my life".
* It's a lovely Rosie episode. Lots of celebration, plus we learn that thunder is the sound of clouds clashing together. But why can't she be more like Carley? She's trying hard not to be funny, she'd rather have points.
* Rosie: "well, I've nailed it". Narrator: she had not nailed it.
* Blair is very comforting.
* Who likes to drink grapes? The Greeks, obviously.
* Laurie has a special bottom hat.
* Well that took an unexpectedly dark turn. Adam's very squirmy about it. Let's move on quick.
* Mushroom Luther King Jr. Ah yes.
* Angelina Jolie has magnet powers, but Ulysses was a magnetic baby, so what are we to do?
* CALLBACK TO THE MAY 24TH JOKE OF THE DAY! Don Carleone!
* Tom's a good friend, Blair is here, Rosie is an award-winning sketch comedian, Sullivan is an award-winning sketch comedian, Carley is the Queen of Clocktower, Adam gets a tiny clap and Laurie gets none at all.
* Tom: "Brace yourselves... you too Laurie"
* Rosie: "What have I not seen?" Sully: "The clues."
* So very close and so very far away!

Let's Play DECRYPTO

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

"*You lucky fuckers just winged it*"
―Jon
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "dash dot dot dot dot dash dot dot dot dash dot dot dot dash dot". ('Blair' apparently.)
* We're in COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* Rosie: "hello and sorry" - for *Let's Play SNAKE OIL II*, obviously.
* Blair is defending champion.
* Eat shit, blue team!
* Jon with the unfortunate callback.
* Board game champions on one team, cool kids on the other.
* Singalonga NRB: Wuthering Heights - reach for the high notes.
* Sullivan was an extra in the 4th and 5th Harry Potter movies. Not as Michael Caine.
* Blair's still refusing to do her British accent.
* Blair is Toad.
* If the guess is wrong, Adam gets to be righteously angry but Jon and Rosie get to be smug. So win-win.
* If we can't work out the answer by logic, threats of violence might work.
* Blair's trying to think like Sullivan - but that way lie butterflies, happy trees and rivers of chocolate.
* Applause, applause for Sullivan's clues.
* Sullivan's having a Shakespearean crisis. If he gets the quote wrong he has to resign as an actor.
* This is getting more and more tense as it goes on. Diversion and mis-fires all round.
* But in the end, it all comes quickly together for the win.
* Blair has a streak!
TomSka

Tom in Board Game Club

"*UWU what's this? Gotcha. Chump.*"
―Tom
**Thomas Ridgewell**, known as **TomSka**, has made guest appearances on No Rolls Barred.

Tom created the game *Muffin Time*, and is a good friend of Daniel J. Layton. He is known for agreeing with Sully about horses as well as believing blobfish look "soft". He is left-handed, which is disgusting, so mercifully this was blurred when he appeared on the channel.

Outside of No Rolls Barred, he is a YouTuber known for his animated web-series such as *asdfmovie* (the basis for his game), *Eddsworld* and *Crash Zoom*, as well as comedy sketches and general YouTube bufoonery. He currently vlogs his life in the monthly series *Last Month*, as well as the 15-year long, yearly *TomSka's Day Out*.

## Notable Moments

* TomSka first appeared on the channel with the cast playing his own game, in *Let's Play MUFFIN TIME*. He described the game as 'shit', which *he* is allowed to.

## Quotes

"*I"m really upset ... I wanted to watch people from my tower. Don't look at them down there! [spits] Scum!*"
―*Let's Play MUFFIN TIME*

"*If it's on my channel, everyone will just target me so I get nothing - you know how it is.* "
―*Let's Play MUFFIN TIME*

"*You can say Muff time - don't be a coward.* " [to Sullivan]
―*Let's Play MUFFIN TIME*

"*Think about it this way - the silly hair man! ... killed a lot of people!* "
―*Let's Play WAVELENGTH IIII*

"*I would have assumed a horse is a fairly sexy animal.* "
―*Let's Play WAVELENGTH IIII*
More quotes by TomSka can be found here!

## Appraisals

"*They're not all gold, Tom. It's a big pile.*"
―Dan (*Let's Play MUFFIN TIME*)

"*It's a very vulnerable thing you're doing Tom, playing your own game.*"
―Tilly (*Let's Play MUFFIN TIME*)

"*Let's get TomSka on the channel to celebrate Muffin Time. He'll elevate our channel!*"
―Adam (*Let's Play WAVELENGTH IIII*)

"*I've never seen someone shit where they eat so virulently!*"
―Adam (*Let's Play SAY ANYTHING II*)

"*Thank you for being on my show ... I'm going to kill you.*"
―Adam (*Let's Play COUP II*)

Marcus G. Fairmont

Spoilers ahead!*This article contains spoilers for **Marcus G. Fairmont from Red DREAD Redemption**. Be warned!*

## Appearances

### Appears in

Red DREAD Redemption

**Marcus G. Fairmont** is a character played by Adam in the series Red DREAD Redemption.

"*I put a lot of souls in a lot of holes and I sleep just fine.*"
―Blood And Steam
## Appearance

He carries a leather satchel with the tools of his craft.

## Biography

Marcus is an undertaker from Calloway, West Virginia. He's currently on a streak of 21-0 in the professional undertaking competition.

Marcus had a complicated relationship with his father, and seems angry that the latter disappeared while prospecting and so was not properly prepared for burial. Marcus collapsed, drunk, in the wilds and died shortly before the events of *Red DREAD Redemption*.

## Trivia

* Marcus is a member of Adam's Fairmont family he uses in RPGs.
Sock Puppet Brooke

**Sock Puppet Brooke** was a character created by Sully to replace Brooke Bourgeois in the No Rolls Barred Plays Blood On The Clocktower series, following the reverse taking place with Sock Puppet Sullivan.

She first appeared in *Trouble With Violets*, replacing Brooke as Sully's girlfriend. Her lips kept falling off.
Oli Davis

**Oli Davis** is a member of the No Rolls Barred family. He appeared regularly in the early episodes of Board Game Club and has guested in some episodes of No Rolls Barred Plays Blood on the Clocktower.

The running joke is that Oli is a Tory and firmly upper middle class - not helped by examples such as in *Let's Play WAVELENGTH*, when the messiest food he could think of was fondue. The cast agreed that this gave absolutely no indication of his social class or age. For that matter, neither did the perception that his favourite film is some arthouse nonsense.

Outside of No Rolls Barred, he is a main member of WrestleTalk. He also co-owns Trident Digital Media and WrestleTalk Digital which is the parent company of WrestleTalk, partsFUNknown and No Rolls Barred, with Alex Shane.

## Quotes

"*You just gotta sit here while people are idiots.*" [realising how board games work]
―*Let's Play CODENAMES*

"*I am the Virgin. Thanks guys.*"
―*The Billiard Boys*

"*I have slept with upwards of three women in my life.*"
―*The Billiard Boys*

"*I guess while Isaac focused on facts, I focused on friendship, and it was the wrong choice.*"
―*The Billiard Boys*

"*Have you seen Luke? With his devil-like goatee? ... he's very nasty to people behind the scenes.*"
―*Twin Magic*
More quotes by Oli Davis can be found here!

## Appraisals

"*Oli, could I just ask - what the fuck were you thinking?*"
―Laurie, (*Let's Play CODENAMES*)

"*Oliver Davis, please. Kill the prick.*" [when asked who he wanted to kill]
―Luke (*A Stud In Scarlet*)

"*There was never any Billiard Boys, Oli.*"
―Adam (*The Billiard Boys*)

"*I will happily retract my nomination for a 12% raise - it is Christmas.* "
―Adam, (*Ding Dom Merrily On High*)
Maanuv Thiara

Maanuv in Board Game Club

**Maanuv Thiara** is a member of the No Rolls Barred family.

"*I've put on a shirt for this!*"
―Maanuv (*Let's Play WEREWOLF*)
Maanuv is cool. He studied at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, where he met Sully, Rosie and Dom, the latter of whom Maanuv was always there to help, and whom encouraged him onto the channel.

Outside of No Rolls Barred, Maanuv is an actor known for starring in *DI Ray*, *Landscapers* and *Line of Duty*.

## Notable moments

* Maanuv first appeared on the channel in the episode *Let's Play NO THANKS*.
* He did not appear in any NRB media in 2022, having only appeared over Zoom in 2021, until he returned for *Let's Play GREEN TEAM WINS* in 2023. There was much talk of how cool he was. He also revealed that he's a goalkeeper, he lives somewhere, he has a PS5, and he always answered the phone when Dom called looking for his ex.
Let's Play THE THING

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

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

" *You ungrateful little oiks. I wish I'd never taken you to this Antarctic base.* "
― Jon
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "Why don't we just sit here a while and see what happens?" (This is a very close callback to Blair in *Let's Play HIT THE SILK* : What if we all just sat here, and didn't do anything?)
* Will the *humans escape with their lives* or will the *Things conquer the world*?
* Lying, infecting, sabotaging. NRB does it better.
* We have two gloriously nerdy Christmas jumpers. Delightful (TM Adam Blampied).
* Less than 5 minutes in, we're at sexy dogs. It's one of those days again. How marvellous.
* Laurie and Rosie are perfecting their Chuckle Brothers act.
* Guns keep you nice and warm and can be used to shoot clouds away.
* Screaming "Cosy Rosie" possibly won't have the lullaby effect we're looking for.
* You may not be The Thing, you may simply be weird about things.
* Timecheck: first mention of dogging: 36 mins, 30 seconds.
* Let's have a Thing Pong tournament.
* Blair gets to say it! Eat shit, Blair!
* Spending time making out makes repairing things more difficult, but much more enjoyable.
* Set list for the NRB players: Crowded House, Thingle Bells. Nice.
* Rosie's face is an accusation in itself and Jon has a dirty little thing mouth.
* Jon has an unwieldy number of very recalcitrant children. Piglets, even.
* All in all, this is a superb Jon episode - not quite an unravelling, but definitely a fraying at the edges.
* Everyone will have their own thoughts on which of the *Daddys* is the best. All opinions are valid, but scientific analysis proves that Adam's head tilt instantly makes his 37.24% more erotic. You can't argue with science, don't @ me.
* Rosie and Sullivan, sitting in a generator room, K - I - S - S - I - N - G. Or similar, but that got bleeped.
* Sullivan insisting on bedding down in the dorm with Carley is either (a) deeply suspicious or (b) not a problem what's wrong with you?
* Sullivan: "I know she's not a Thing, but do we have to take her?"
* Apparently quite a stressful game all round.
* It's never too late in a video to start a new bit.

## Trivia

* Game introduction and rules are presented by Adam.
* It's the final chalkboard update, consolidating Adam's overall victory and confirming that we will not be getting the Monopoly Marathon.
* An extended version of this episode is available on the No Rolls Barred Patreon.
* A 2 1/2 hour game means no talking heads.

Laurie's lookalikes

Laurie looks like a lot of different characters in board games, which is a great way to bully him.

## Instances

* The recruiter in *Let's Play LIBERTALIA: WINDS OF GALECREST* was not based on Laurie, just on an incredibly handsome man in a yellow hat, apparently.
* *Let's Play COSMIC ENCOUNTER II* had Tom asking "is there a board game with card art that does not look like Laurie Blake?" They were, of course, referring to the alien named Hate.
* In *Let's Play TRIAL BY TROLLEY*, Adam said Laurie looked an awful lot like the train conductor in the game.
Let's Play SNIPER ELITE: THE BOARD GAME

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

**Let's Play SNIPER ELITE: THE BOARD GAME** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*It's actually making me uncomfortable... how into it they are.*"
―Laurie
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "there's always something to envy: a smile, a friendship, something you don't have and want to appropriate, Sullivan".
* Who will be *Sniper Wolf*? Who will be *the enemy at the gates*?
* Adam is the good guy, that's unusual. What an interesting moral quandary for the rest of us.
* Blair's not keen on Sullivan's German accent and she really doesn't like "Nazi Blair". OK, apparently that's not true - she jumped for joy when she heard. In summary, she's the kindest Nazi we've ever met.
* Adam's in the wrong seat again, it's very slightly unsettling.
* We're playing along with Adam in the public version - you can play blind on the Patreon version. You should definitely become a patron. Lovely people, lovely content: patreon.com/norollsbarred.
* Laurie: "I think it's pathetic you've had to cast us all as Nazis to get this episode's slight hero rub".
* Adam: "Laurie, I understand this is very off-brand for you, but these guys [Blair and Sullivan] just reek Nazi."
* Sullivan is Mr. History, although not too clear on Central and South America, as it happens.
* Franz is into painting and charity. He was definitely conscripted. Some of these people are really not nice, though.
* All good in the Nazi hood? eeeeew.
* The building looks like a penis. Teri loves that joke. We get Teri impressions but no Teri spot.
* No-one likes a back seat Nazi.
* The bad guys are getting very close. It's genuinely difficult to call this one.
* Adam: "You're diet sniper, you're sniper zero, you twat. [etc. etc. etc.]" "I really am not sympathetic".
* Killing Nazis is stressful and horrible - itchy bum time?
* Adam: "By cock, they ... fuck"
* It was very very close and tense in the end.

Let's Play COLT EXPRESS

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

"*What is Board Game Club if not a significantly longer and growing series of required reading for every single episode?*"
―Jon
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "3 parts rooting to 1 part tooting".
* We're in COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* Shooting, looting and pointless revenge. Nice.
* Tom is defending champion.
* Adam is now the fiery redhead of Board Game Club: "Now *I'm* dating Sullivan." Sullivan: "Yeeaaaas".
* We're ditching the name changes, if Adam has anything to do with it.
* He may have been on the last episode, but in quite a real sense, this is Maanuv's welcome to BGC.
* Can we shoot the marshall? We're not *criminals,* Brooke*.*
* Let's all pick on Adam.
* Adam: "I will take your Sully and I will date him so hard". Sully: "We're going to have a lovely time, it's going to be so nice". Brooke: "I hope you fucking do". The romance ends before it gets going though - Adam hates Chelsea.
* Has Brooke ever heard of a vendetta? Has Tom? Alternatively, we could settle our differences and shoot Sullivan.
* Does it feel particularly bad to be outsmarted by Sullivan? He doesn't have guns, he just shouts 'bang!'
* We just want to take all Sullivan's stuff.
* Maanuv wins the championship, but won't be back to defend it.
* Oh hahahaha "a friendly game".
* Adam's a professional host, doncha know.
* We will never know what Tom really thinks of Susan Hill.
* Tom: "I have never felt so dirty - and I spend most of my time in the woods".
* Tom gets kicked down the train, despite all those shared years and rootin' and tootin' college.
* And in the end, it all works out for Sullivan, but Tom is the ultimate winner, with no consequences sadly.

## Trivia

* Game introduction and rules by Adam.
* The main game runs a little short, so this is the episode where we get Board Game Club After Dark. A shorter, slightly more chaotic extra game, with no championship consequences.
Jon unravelling

**Jon Gracey unravelling** is a long running gag concerning Jon's tendency to lose the plot when confronted with complications, unfairness or confusion in board games. This has occurred in many circumstances - both in Board Game Club and in No Rolls Barred Plays Blood on the Clocktower episodes.

Others in the cast often take advantage of this.

## Sightings

Very very common, but particularly:

* *Human Remains Of The Day*
* *Let's Play WAVELENGTH II*
	+ A very early hint of things to come - Jon has an emotional reaction to the film Bug's Life, based on his memory of his first (unsuccessful) kiss during the film. He sums this up as "I"m having a breakdown, it doesn't mean I'm wrong".
* *Let's Play WAVELENGTH III*
* *Let's Play CHEESE THIEF*

Mayor Clean

**Mayor Clean** is a character played by Tom in *Let's Play FIASCO*.

Mayor Clean was the Mayor of Promise Hill, the setting for Fiasco. He was a sinister man, concerned only with keeping all evidence of corruption in the town hidden. Badge Holster had done a number of unspecified, clearly illicit tasks for the Mayor during his tenure as Police Chief.

It was the Mayor's motorcycle which triggered the final events of Fiasco.
Let's Play SPYFALL II

**Let's Play SPYFALL II** is a video in the Board Game Club series, and the final episode to be recorded solely online before we transition to the in-person set.

"*Shut up Sean, what do you know about professional broadcasting?*"
―Adam
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "this is the end".
* We're farewelling the UK COVID restrictions, hence Zoom - but this is the last online episode.
* Laurie's very sus. But Blair's even worse.
* Jay loves the smell of paperwork. Hmm.
* Sullivan: "I just have a lovely time". Adam: "That could be Sullivan's answer to any fucking question".
* Jon is running away with this early on.
* British people don't like the beach and Sullivan is scared of everything there.
* Sean is wearing nothing but question marks.
* We should never assume Adam is making a pertinent point about anything at all.
* Laurie is pointless, through no fault of his own. But he does have lovely doe eyes, apparently.
* Tom used to work in the theatre for many years, and hates it with a fiery passion. Wonder what Tom's fiery passion looks like?
* There are pauses we could drive a bus through. That's hella sus.
* Sean is so suspicious that he's well-practised for the time he is the spy.
* Suspicion flies in every direction.
* Sean is irredeemable and without tactics.
* Time's running out. Not sure that's happened before. Now we vote and look for a majority.
* And finally Sean is the spy - and completely undetected. We agree he's the best worst player of this game.
* This is the final BGC of the Zoom era - the future begins with our next episode. It's been an interesting 40 weeks but we're excited about what comes next.

## Scores

* Jay 3

## Notable moments

* Will our players ' **or will it be more like *X*?**

## Trivia

The rumble was scheduled for Thursday 11 January at 5 pm UK time. The winner of the tournament will face the current Lord of the Board, Jon, in a competition for the NRB Heavyweight Championship.
* An extended version of this episode is available on the No Rolls Barred Patreon.
* There are talking heads for this episode.
Nameybobs

Members of the No Rolls Barred cast, particularly Adam and Holly, often refer to each other with their name followed by the suffix "bobs", sometimes with a 'y' in the middle. This seems to have first begun from Adam's naming of Sully as "Sullybobs".

## Instances

* Adam referred to Tilly as Tillybobs in *Let's Play SKULL II*. He also referred to Sullybobs and Lauriebobs.
* In *Let's Play CAMEL UP* Adam introduced everyone except Laurie with their -bobs name.
* We had the same in *Let's Play TRIAL BY TROLLEY*.
* In *Couple Goals*, Holly had a "sexy chart" for notes with the names Sullybobs, Jonnybobs, Hollybobs, Dommybobs, Dannybobs, Carleybobs, Brooke, and Adambobs. She admitted that this made the chart somewhat harder to navigate.
* In *Let's Play MONIKERS*, the cast made fun of Adam by doing the hellos for him. Laurie used the -bobs version of everbody's names.
* Nameybobs all round in *Let's Play PICTURES* - it was a very special day and Adam was particularly giddy because of it.

Let's Play SAY ANYTHING

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

"*Board Game Club gradually becoming an incomprehensible tangle of in jokes...*"
―Adam
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "protected by the 1st amdendment".
* We're in COVID restrictions, hence Zoom.
* It's all in good fun, right? Right?
* Oh good, a nasty one.
* Eat shit, Blair! The merch is out! Blair's happy to be on a shirt, even under the circumstances.
* Tony Hawk got to the top of his game by the consumption of faeces.
* Adam's ego is a dangerously fragile beast.
* Dressage is fancy horse-walking for Tories.
* Jon's a flat earther. I think now you know, you can tell.
* Could Laurie be any more hip? He could not use the word 'hip' for a start.
* Time for Sullivan to kiss outside the box.
* Sullivan's version of the Muppets is very food-related.
* Laurie's on the callback. Jon's on the callback.
* Jon gets stuck on his precious beds.
* Tom and Adam doubling down on the 20 year relationship.
* Jon is showing his lack of dork.
* Sullivan misread the brief. Instead of a bad idea that's terrible, he came up with something brilliant.
* We have our first official NRB ship: Jon and Laurie, bouncing on the double mattresses. Although we are sad to discover that the first community ship was Bla-dam from BGC episode 1. That just leaves Sullivan and Tom, inevitable.
* Adam apologises, Laurie ~~accepts with grace~~ tells him to fuck off and calls him an Annie Lennox wannabe. And a Bieber-looking bastard.
* The Sullivan Beau Brown Bear would be adorable.
* Tom's already re-evaluating his relationship with Sullivan, based on the strange animal treatment.
* We've discovered Jon's kink. And his sexual capability.
* Tom is a ghost. Nobody is surprised.
* Laurie's not on a streak.

## Trivia

* Almost there with the sign-off.
Shpedy-shped

**Shpedy-shped**, or **sped**, or **shped**, is a deliberate mispronunciation of the word 'speed', often by Laurie, which has the power to reduce our cast to helpless laughter.

## Instances

* This first appeared during a tired-and-slightly-hysterical shoot for *Let's Play BETRAYAL AT HOUSE ON THE HILL (3rd ed.)* when Laurie was riffing on word pronunciation. Hitting on 'shpedy-shped' for speed reduced sent most of the cast, particularly Carley, into giggles. Laurie then realised that this was the joke of his career and started making plans to tour it and then retire.
* During the *100k Subs NRB Charity Marathon For Mind!!!* shpedy-shped made a return in a number of games - Cosmic Encounter and Betrayal At House On The Hill both had speed stats, which became shped. We still laughed, but not as much. Laurie has yet to retire.
Slambo Wilkins

Spoilers ahead!*This article contains spoilers for **Slambo Wilkins from Chaotic Neutral Plays D&D**. Be warned!*

## Appearances

### Appears in

Chaotic Neutral Plays D&D

**Slambo Wilkins** is a character played by Sullivan in the series Chaotic Neutral Plays D&D.

"*I had a brief time where I tried to learn the lute ... very bad at it ... I brought it with me.*"
―The Chase Is Better Than The Catch
## Appearance

Slambo is a brooding, muscular man with an intense, intimidating air and a very contrasting voice and manner.
Laurie's my Demon

**"Laurie's my Demon"** is a joke started by Isaac Adedoyin-William in the episode *Ding Dom Merrily On High* of No Rolls Barred Plays Blood On The Clocktower, to annoy Jon Gracey and to cause Jon to unravel.

This started with their first conversation and, as it worked so well to unsettle Jon, Isaac kept it up for the whole game. Occasionally, other people contributed to the joke - either agreeing that Laurie was their demon, or agreeing that Laurie was Isaac's demon.

As it happened, Isaac was a minion, but Laurie wasn't the demon. Jon tried very hard to find an explanation other than 'Isaac is fucking with you'.

This joke combined Isaac's tendency to wild, disruptive plays with Jon's propensity to unravel completely at the slightest provocation. A perfect storm, if you will. In a confused and confusing game, this was one of the most bizarre elements.
Let's Play DECRYPTO II

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

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

"*I think you're right and I think it's too obvious.*"
― Laurie (reportedly)
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "Password."
* Who will *pass the Turing Test* and who will *succumb to Edward Nigma*?
* All hail the Tower of Destiny!
* Dom is a man of many talents, but apparently song writing is not one of them. Mind you, Tilly's a terrible rapper.
* Adam moves seats. The universe is slightly unsettled.
* Decreepturds and the birth of the "Sexy Legends" - posing, uniting and celebrating
* As the audience, we get to play or not this time - that's not happened for a while.
* It's an interesting choice of "music" to help Adam think.
* The stress levels in this one aren't really related to the game, but to the tantalising prospect of win no. 22 on the chalkboard of doom. Although Dom does need the toilet, so maybe that isn't helping.
* Sometimes Laurie is too smart, but Sullivan is always a basic bitch.
* Does Laurie want Adam to lose more than Adam wants Adam to win?
* When the end comes, it is indeed beautiful. It's been a hell of a year for our boy.
* Adam: "Twenty-two! Twenty-two! I've fucking done it! I don't give a shit! Twenty-two! Twenty-two individual board game wins this year! It's done now. I can rest. It's over. It's done."
* Tilly's right, most people *don't* have their failures filmed like that.
* We finish with a very special James special. Love a montage.
* What will we do instead of our charity Monopoly? Fun run? Bath of baked beans? Ice bucket challenge? Head shaved again? We'll find out. (Spoiler: turns out to be our 10 hour charity livestream on 6 February 2023).
* Dom's pushing hard for Diplomacy, of course. Adam: "I've heard you and I hear you. And I've received you. And fuck you."

" *I wanna be in the mooooooovie.* "
― The cast
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "It's not who you know, it's what you know...about who you know".
* Who will be *the brave boys in blue* and who will be *the red menace*?
* Adam Blampied hair watch: blond at all times, which makes this at the latest a December 2022 recording, in all probability.
* We're bluffing, we're negotiating, we're lying. It's the movie business baby.
* It's Rosie and Dom. Eventually we're going to end up making porn. Hands up anyone who didn't see that coming?
* Adam's a professional host, doncha know.
* Actors are drunk, lecherous and do great impressions of Jimmy Stewart.
* Composers recycle their one great tune over and over again.
* Producers are masters of seduction and get even worse when they're sharing a trailer with the director. It's honestly a wonder any movies get made.
* Talking of which, a movie can apparently be made without actors. Or a script. Or lighting. Or direction.
* Can we even imagine a film genre where the Pink Panther theme would be inappropriate?
* It's a great time for women in comedy, if they can only get into the movies.
* Rosie is very skilled, but more importantly has really long arms.
* Da da da da da da da da tits and cards
* Dom's actually unsackable.
* Da da da da da da da da tits for gold

Let's Play GOOD COP BAD COP

## ★ ADAM'S CHALKBOARD ★

**Let's Play GOOD COP BAD COP** is a video in the Board Game Club series.

"*Welcome to Board Game Cuck!*"
―Laurie
## Notable moments

* The first rule of Board Game Club is "just one day away from retirement". (As it is with cop-themed games.)
* Will our players be *bobbies* or *bobbins*?
* Social deduction again, goodo.
* Dom only feels safe with a gun. As does Laurie. As does Tilly.
* Dom: "Shooting people is the best form of social deduction."
* Rosie's cross already and successfully intimidating Adam into skipping her cards. Sullivan's terribly confused.
* Dom and Sullivan in alliance is very confusing and alarming.
* Dom's crooked, but that doesn't mean he's *crooked*.
* Rosie: "Adam's a filthy liar." Adam: "What the fuck are *you* talking about?"
* Tilly: "I really take this seriously, is my problem."
* Dom's trying to build an alliance against Adam. He's really leaning into the role play.
* Laurie: "Let's just start firing and see how it shakes down!"
* Rosie shuffled her cards and put them down, so she doesn't know what is where.
* Laurie's a good photoshopped don.
* Everyone gets a medal apart from Adam. Situation normal, then.
* Tilly's feeling a bit aggrieved against Laurie. Whom she shot in the first round.
* Sullivan: "I've seen lots of things, none of them good. All of them Rosie."
* Adam: "Why's he always dressed like he's fly fishing in Inverness? ... I wouldn't trust Laurie with my life, I wouldn't trust Laurie with my pet. I wouldn't trust Laurie to throw a dinner party, frankly. He's an awful human being."
* Rosie on Laurie: "He's tall and thin, like a pin".
* Much more of this and Laurie will get a reputation. As will Tilly, actually.
* Tilly's smashing this one.
* Tilly will be forgiven because she's adorable.
* Crooked Bourgeois!
* Rosie gives off honest wafts.
* Laurie's the kingpin again - that's 3 for 3.
* Sullivan: "Dom is the least forgiving man I know. I remember once, a pigeon looked at him funny and he tracked down its family and killed them all."
* Dom is nurturing a grudge. It's only going to get worse.
* Sullivan: "They used to call me 'bubbles' because I'm so on the level, I'm a spirit level."
* Dom to Adam: "You little snake, you pathetic worm! How dare you?" Dom was slightly slighted and will punish Adam for ever.
* Adam's trying to set up an alliance with Tilly. It lasts one turn. Oh, actually it's not collapsed at all, the cheeky little scamp.
* Adam to Sullivan: "I gave you a medal, you quisling."
* Adam and Laurie vs Bristol Old Vic Theatre School - it was always going to end this way.
* Rosie is the crime matriarch. Laurie's only chasing medals.
* Let's all pick on Adam. So a weekday then?
* Have we ever seen Sullivan so cross? That was very funny indeed. It's not going to help, but it was very funny.
