It actually says in the rules that “reveal your ballot cards simultaneously, so that everyone’s vote is public” that’s how we play it and i think it’s better because then you can question people on why they vote like they do.
Yeah cause otherwise if you dont vote together, the last one could change their vote on the spot and change the result if it's 4 vs 3 for example. I played a couple matches with my friends and they wouldnt realize why ballot cards have to be uncovered simultaneously XD
Traceability of voters favours the liberals, anonymous voting favours the fascists.. Even number of players favours liberals, odd numbers favours fascists. To balance play, even players - std. rules..... odd players, no voterID required! / votes can be counted through the night after opposition election auditors have been sent home due to flood ;-) Ultimately, not having to provide VoterID makes is more interesting although it is a massive boost for the fascists! LIke in real life if you don't believe the media!
honestly ive had this happen in the first game, one of our friends girlfriend brought her younger brother, first time ever meeting him, at the end a lot of people were just face palming he basically threw the game, so i feel calvins pain lol ive been there
They played in what I call: "The Fascist and the Furious" Typically when electing Chancellor, people's votes are public instead of anonymous. In this way it allows the other players to better assess where another player's loyalties lie, and it makes the Fascists have to think more carefully on how they vote because too many Neins for people who are Liberal, or too many Jas for people suspected to be Fascist, could make the others suspect you. Alternatively, you could play "The Fascist and the Furious" in which Fascists have to worry WAAAAAYYYY less about how they vote because nobody knows that you're the one voting Nein for the person who has proven time and time again that they are Liberal. it makes the game supremely difficult for Liberals and throws the game so far off balance it's almost down completely to luck in order for Liberals to win
The game is designed and balanced around votes being public and giving this kind of information. With just the policies, it would be much less 'social deduction' and more 'blind guessing'.
I agree, I also think secret hitler is a game that also gets better the more you play it because you start to create strategies one time in a game a facist player gave me two blues and then later stated he gave me a choice, I instantly called him out on it and he responded with why would I lie about giving you a choice he basically made me seem crazy so he could put the bullet in my head
That's definitely a tactic I haven't seen yet, but a great example why a good mix of "social" and "deduction" is important for a fun game. If it's just about being the best liar it's not much of a game and if it's pure mechanism it's not much fun. I got a feeling Sheriff of Nottingham would go over well with them, though even with expansion it only goes up to 6 players.
I need to get my game back together, I honestly feel the second episode of this will be even better because they will know the game better and start doing crazier stuff Like as a facist acting suspicious and throwing shade at another facist so people start to trust the other facist instead
Yes it actually says in the rules that “reveal your ballot cards simultaneously, so that everyone’s vote is public” that’s how we play it and i think it’s better because then you can question people on why they vote like they do.
Speaking of Hitler, y'all should react to the Kung Fury True Survivor music video. The singer is David Hasselhoff! I just saw the movie reaction. You'll love the music video
I LOVE Secret Hitler.... it's just so funny seeing everyone's betrayed faces when a fascist card is played or someone they trusted does something they didn't expect XD
If you still play the game I would love to have someone to play with at Tabletop, only played it live and not on tabletop but I'd love to try :D Love the game :D
Honestly, I agree with the big guy. Nobody should be allowed to ask other people to swear that they’re liberal or to say I’ll give you money if I’m lying or anything like that. That just ruins the game.
Yeah the first game was absurd, but the real fascists shouldve realized that one of them couldn't be fascist, cause 3 regular fascists+hitler would make a fascist majority in a 7 people game!! XD I was so confused when I saw it and still watched the game through, the end was priceless lol How could he misread his role card so bad? Plus he didnt see the girl with her thumb up??? What the hell XD
Everyone should flip their cards when they vote instead of how you guys did it. Adding another variable into the game, making it harder for the liberals. Unfortunate ...
Just gonna say Fascists and liberals arent mutually exclusive, fascism doesnt mean far right it means far top/north (dont know if thats a thing but whatever you describe the furthest postition on the y-axis on the political graph, opposite to far libertarianism). Not having a dig at liberals, as i am center-left myself just correcting a myth. Example: Communism
Eh that's pretty wrong. The upper most position on the political compass represents the most authoritarian ideologies not the most fascist ones. Fascism and communism are both associated with authoritarianism but fascism is most definitely right wing and communism left wing.
Lukas a do some research mate, communism is a form of fascism. Fascism is simply defined as when a single person/group has full control over a nation. i.e. extreme authoritarianism
Well what kind of research do you want me to do? I don't really want to spend too much time on this so I just had a quick look on Wikipedia which seems to disconfirm your assertions: "Fascism /ˈfæʃɪzəm/ is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism,[1][2] characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and control of industry and commerce,[3] which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.[4] The first fascist movements emerged in Italy during World War I before it spread to other European countries.[4] Opposed to liberalism, Marxism and anarchism, fascism is usually placed on the far-right within the traditional left-right spectrum.[5][6][7][4][8][9]" And although Wikipedia isn't the best source you will still be hard pressed to find many historians or political philosophers who think communism is a form of fascism. Sure both systems didn't value individual freedom too much (hence the authoritarianism thing) but they were still fundamentally different in many ways e.g. the most obvious one is that communists wanted a classless utopia whereas fascists usually embraced hierarchies and even sought them where they didn't exist as Hitler did with his racial theories
Wait... "Fascists and liberals aren't mutually exclusive (...) it means far top/north (...) opposite to far libertarianism" So fascists and liberals aren't opposites, but fascism is opposite to libertarianism?
im aestheticly pleased that all the people wearing glasses are on the corners

Exactly!
If you want to watch where you don't know who's fascist or liberal start the games at 3:29, 29:37, and 44:08
Your a little off on that last mark.
Raptorus77 *Spoiler* I'm a fascist because *you're
;P
40:02 “I know my wife, she’s lying” best quote ever
to be honest, I would love to watch the crew of blind wave play candy land.
Play this again please.
Dammit Rhop! XD
Hahaha :)
29:29 that look they gave each other was great! 😂
PLEASE play this again lmao “Ok I’m gonna hand out Neins.. nein nein nein nein nein nein nein”
I'm hoping to hear "I am the Senate" and "Power....UNLIMITED Powerrrrrrr!"
22:19 had me rolling XD
And now i know Shane's pin for his phone. Mwahaha.
The candy land fakeout really doesn't work when its titled secret hitler and shown at the start XD
13:10 The vote counter is supposed to be moved back to the start when a policy is played.
Command must use the "control F U" short cut a good bit with Rhop ;-)
But Caboose didn't teamkill...
Rhop with that team kill😂
20:00 reminds me of Princess Bride with Vizzini and Westley XD
They need to play this again with the right rules
yep.. the ballot thing is different...
Maggie!!! So much rage!!! I love it ;)
Don't watch this if you're trying to understand the rules. They've played this missing key rules...
4:24 he gave away his being a fascist by getting the chips so early
27:10 Seems like Stauffenbergs Assassination of Hitler was so effective this time Hitler didn't even make it to office.
When it comes to playing board games, I am Rhop.
I need more of these videos
Imagine taking a shot every time someone said the words: Liberal, Fascists, or Hitler
honestly ive had this happen in the first game, one of our friends girlfriend brought her younger brother, first time ever meeting him, at the end a lot of people were just face palming he basically threw the game, so i feel calvins pain lol ive been there
I love this game. Love you guys!
21:46
I KNEW there were too many fasciasts in that first game. Stupid Rob!
If you write "AWESOME" on you're keyboard whilst watching in fullscreen you'll make the progress bar to flash rainbow!
I just noticed Rick looks sooo much like Rollo from VIkings WTF
This game is so funny I already know it from a german youtube channel :D
Keep up the amazing work Blind Wave
This is great! Hope you will play it again!
As a German it was pretty funny to watch :D good video !
Please watch "Dark". There is insanely much you can talk about after every Episode.
I’ve been looking for reactions to this show everywhere on yt.
Terrell I dont get why no one watches it, its so good
Daniel S I don’t understand either, my friend. It’s a shame
because it's foreign if I am not mistaken, and as you know from their anime reactions they prefer dub over subs just for a better reaction
Thee_Sayian_Prince they can watch it in English dub
16:17

When Shane asks within the first 6 minutes what the vote is based on, he totally gave away the fact that he's not a Fascist.
Nice to see Rhop join in on the team's shenanigans (yes I know he has been in other 'things')
I'm german and love playing this game. It's funny how they pronounce Ja and Nein though :-D
I think you should not make the votes anonymous , the voting gives so much information
and you can learn alot by who the person votes for

Yo Rick was so convinced Maggie was a fascist I completely forgot it was Calvin.
Wow secret ballot cool might try that next time we play.
we always did open/show ballot
Do a silent secret hitler
Game night is best night
Play One Night Ultimate Werewolf. You guys will love it!
Damnit I thought this was round 2 but i remembered i had seen this 2 weeks ago.
My favourite game to play! Love it
Speaking of Hitler, y'all should react to the Kung Fury True Survivor music video. The singer is David Hasselhoff! I just saw the movie reaction. You'll love the music video
Dang, Aaron did a good job of explaining the rules.
Eric in the first game LMFAO
I LOVE Secret Hitler.... it's just so funny seeing everyone's betrayed faces when a fascist card is played or someone they trusted does something they didn't expect XD
How would this play if you are only 4 players?
you can't.. this game is for 5 - 10 players
If you still play the game I would love to have someone to play with at Tabletop, only played it live and not on tabletop but I'd love to try :D Love the game :D
Found Secret Hitler.io gonna try that out.
My power towers above all, play this game agian. Or i will be forced to show you my power.
Never played this before - the resistance seems similar to this though
It sure looked like there were 3 facists plus Hitler at the start there...in a 7 player game.
why are you doing anonymous voting?! This is hurting my head.
where can I find them playing Civ V?
This game would be sooo illegal where I'm from.
Imagine a game being illegal. Where do you live? Nazi Germany?
Lol they said the guy in the left top corner was Hitler when he really was
Can I get a physiognomy check on these things?
Just threw that first game, wow.
or just didnt even bother to look at your card lol.
G'dammit Rhop!
The Reichstaig colorized
I was wondering if someone was going to say something to shane
Shane is so damn annoying when playing games.
JordanSR 666 He’s dumb as fuck. He never knows the rules and asks dumb questions all game.
Honestly, I agree with the big guy. Nobody should be allowed to ask other people to swear that they’re liberal or to say I’ll give you money if I’m lying or anything like that. That just ruins the game.
more of this guys
Haha first time I played this, I was hitler and I won mouhahahha
54:47 ... You didn’t at least try and give it to Hitler?...
Why did Calvin grab some bullets? Thats some creepy stuff.
Max Palombella because they needed to have bullets for the game why is that creepy? Lmao
You need bullets for the game to work? I live in the UK. We dont have access bullets here, so i cant play this game?
Max Palombella It doesn’t have to be actual bullets but that’s what they were using for their game, I don’t understand why it’s “creepy”
This was so funny, what did Shane say to Aaron at the end lol
Wait, not once did the fascist president tried to nominate hitler as chancellor?
38:58 that sounds like something an insecure person would say
hi
Yeah the first game was absurd, but the real fascists shouldve realized that one of them couldn't be fascist, cause 3 regular fascists+hitler would make a fascist majority in a 7 people game!! XD I was so confused when I saw it and still watched the game through, the end was priceless lol How could he misread his role card so bad? Plus he didnt see the girl with her thumb up??? What the hell XD
OMG i love this game!
what if l and light played
Greetings i'm new here, and I just subscribed ⬜w⬜
can u guys play mafia next
Poor Eric lol
First round, fascist killing his own hitler, such a dumb thing lol
YAAAAAAS
NeeeeD moreee
Damn you guys straight screwed uo both games and little dumb mistakes
It's fun to see Rhop and Maggie in this video
1. why did nobody notice that there were four fascists in game one
2. why randomize votes?
Man..Robb is painfully awkward and incredibly socially inept.
More
Please watch the Riverdale
pls play again!
2022
Spoiler Shane died in the future
You guys have too many fascist for a 7 player game.
haha great game!!!
Everyone should flip their cards when they vote instead of how you guys did it. Adding another variable into the game, making it harder for the liberals. Unfortunate ...
Shouldn’t there have been more liberals in game 1? And game 2 Hitler shouldn’t open his eyes
there are too many fac..
Is Rhop another one of Calvins' relatives?
TJ Wells Rhop is Calvin's one true love. CalRhop forever! 😂

So fascists and liberals aren't opposites, but fascism is opposite to libertarianism?
not true man... communism is far left.. fascism is far right... both are authoritarian.. lukas is right
