    There were a few rules snafus here, one of the main ones was a misunderstanding of the Trash Golem's power. The Trash Golem must be present at a location for his special ability to work, and locations are resolved in number order with all assistants being returned when their location is resolved. Basically, the Trash Golem has to be on a higher numbered location (Not his Home card) for his trash collection to work.
    Also, Becca mistakenly stopped Amy from shelving 2 cards from the after she finally won the auction @ 53:42 because there are 2 players at the Gambling Den. The rules are also slightly ambiguous for the Gambling Den, my group plays it where the active player chooses one category and then we go round robin until everyone has chosen a category for each assistant present. This interpretation is based on the clarifying text about naming "A different category" instead of being plural.
    I remember there being a few other minor issues, but nothing that would have likely changed the outcome. I would say that I feel sorry for Tyler; the Trash Golem is very powerful in games with more players, but is almost completely countered by the Fire Imp.

    I noticed there was a phrase used 'if you ain't cheating you're not trying', and by looking at the player power Becca Scott was cheating the whole game with her power as by reading the card you do both home actions draw and place and then discard to repeat the action, where she was discarding first to draw 2 place 2, which means she could use the 2nd card first to get better placement if needed be she wasn't doing a repeat.

    One of my friends has a name credit in the back of the rules. Tony Racano. Game is fun but no idea why they chose that color\text font\size. So hard to read. It's in my collection but haven't played much because games like Altiplano, Concordia,and recently Lowlands exist.

    43:43 I think Becca cheated at the gambling hall by not discarding the cards she didn't shelve?
    Just look at her @ 44:28, unscrupulously adding a gambled card to the hand after the "not cheating not trying" quip! LOL.
    The rule is up @ 40:40 and she doesn't read the last part about discarding. I think she was keeping extra cards!

    • @Matt-ct5ks
      @Matt-ct5ks 6 років тому

      superdestructo Becca cheats, it's a rolling meme now. Usually she doesn't deliberately do it. And they have a rules person specifically to catch stuff like that.

    • @skyblazeeterno
      @skyblazeeterno 6 років тому +1

      Its kind of sad but I get the impression she is one of these game players that HAS to win....I may have missed it but did they randomly select their assistants in this game? The bookworm seems very overpowered... you could pretty much shelve your book collection in half the time of the others...would not be surprised if becca chose it

    • @legenddairy82
      @legenddairy82 6 років тому +1

      She's not cheating that's how the card works. It reads take all matching card (add them too your hand) and you may shelve them 1 per players below ( you don't have to shelve them), and discard the rest ( all the cards that did not have the marching symbol on them) which she did.

  • @trekadam30
    @trekadam30 6 років тому

    Here's a nerdy question:
    Are any of the book titles repeated on multiple cards? If not, that alone is impressive. With there being 2-4 books per card, that's alot of book titles to think up.

    • @VinegarAndSaltedFries
      @VinegarAndSaltedFries 6 років тому

      trekadam30 No, no repeats aside from and occasionally funny sequel joke.

    • @skyblazeeterno

    Is this supposed to be a replacement for Wil Wheaton's Tabletop? I don't mind it, but also curious where that other one went too. :/

    • @12rawrman
      @12rawrman 6 років тому +5

      Wil Wheaton is no longer doing Table Top. The show was bought by Legendary Entetrtainment who pissed Wil off with lack of communication, paywalls and shit production styles. G&S was the channel that played Table Top after the paywall expired. Wil had blogged he won't be returning for a 5th season and Game the Game, though technically not a replacement as it was around for quite a while, is all we have left.

    I came here only to see how many comments there are complaining about Tabletop and Will Wheaton. Keep it up! I feed on their misery. Also I love Game the Game, watching it on Project Alpha right now.

  • @SpydersByte
    @SpydersByte 6 років тому +1

    if there's anything I've learned by watching GtG it's the fact that Becca has amazing luck and also cheats every chance she can get, that's a pretty difficult combo to beat.

    • @nightcatarts
      @nightcatarts 6 років тому

      Somebody needs to install a hidden conveyor belt that goes around the table so the other players can trade cards behind her back.. Oh, who am I kidding? I can't be upset with Becca.

    • @skyblazeeterno

      even without cheating she has said she has played the games before so will always have the advantage over players encountering the game for the first time

      ZoidbergForPresident from the moment legendary got the rights to GnS content, he was not happy about the way they run things (like having early access to tabletop show through a paywall called project alpha subscription). Plus he was burnt out about the way the tabletop show was organised, specificaly about rule explanations. He has a blog that documented some of these stuff on his personal website

      why are you people *still* complaining about this? GtG took Tabletop's place ages ago, if you actually cared about the series you would've noticed it back when it happened. There's no point in bitching about it at this point.
