Oil being lied to the whole time by the billiard boys and having to keep calling himself a virgin is the most mean girls shit
Seriously asking him to go fetch people to the room and chatting shit behind his back is incredible TV
@@harveyholmes9533 stop trying to make “fetch” happen
He went from being a “pretty big deal” in the last game to a massive virgin in this one
It’s actually giving me life
Heartbroken for Oli, that pained look in the debrief...
"There's no point in revealing who I am this early in the game."
"Are you the mayor by any chance?"
Excitedly:"I am!!!"
Sully: I'm not going to reveal who I am until later on this time
Isaac: Are you the mayor?
Sully: YES I AM!
I had to pause the video I was laughing so hard!
Adam and Oli: Plotting galaxy-brain plays
*cuts to*
Sully: "Do you remember Bananaman?"
He's not even drunk this time.
Props to the editor for the amazing cut to sully moments. This cut and the cut to him singing one is the loneliest number were the two biggest highlights of the video.
"Alright, I'm not going to reveal my role to everyone this time around."
cut to day 2
HE HAS TOLD EVERYONE HE'S THE MAYOR.
Love the different approaches of people to the game.
Day 1 Adam- puts his whole plan into motion by lying to Oli
Day 1 Sully- “does anybody remember Banana Man?!?”
And I do remember Banana Man!
Laurie is a dark horse in these. Everyone says that Issac was on to them, but Laurie was saying it pretty early too.
Yeah he’s very bright, and quite underrated
Laurie loves social deduction and is devious as hell. It doesn't surprise me that he thrives in this game.
I do think Laurie was the best player this game since he was gathering information and sussed out the whole plan, without being too aggressive the way Isaac was. Laurie figured everything out without ever making any of the other good guys really doubt him, and he was pivotal in the final 3 vote.
@@bacchuscruz9301 yeah, that’s the thing. Isaac worked it all out the quickest, which was genuinely impressive, but he went about it in such a way that nobody believed him, which is a failure on his part.
@@intergalactic92
Isaac playing clocktower is somewhat the living embodiment of the adage "it doesn't matter if you're right if nobody likes you". Which isn't to say that they don't like him in general, but just that his (and Carley's) style of play doesn't involve a lot of relationship building.
Props to the editor for some great transitions here.
*Adam and Ollie scheming up a move that's going to steer the entire course of the game* cuts to Sully: "You guys remember bananaman?"
And Laurie sussing Sully: "He's playing a very quiet game." cuts to *Mayor Sullivan alone in the town square singing "one is the loneliest number" to himself*
Two awesome moments of Sully being Sully made even better with some superb editing. Bravo.
Sully and the editors truly are some gems
@@salem-01 "Sully and the Editors" is the name of my Steely Dan/The Killers mashup cover band.
Also after Adam died and it immediately went to night, Sully's cute like whimpering "Oh God' 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 such a hilarious cut and fellow
It's amazing going back to these after watching the lives ones, and learning all the in-game lore, like where "Daddy Ben" came from 😂
"I focused on friendship. It was the wrong choice"
Oli Davis 2021 🤣
The Mr. Davis babyface turn has begun.
Sully singing one is the loneliest number has made my day
I laughed so hard that my eyes watered. I didn’t expect that at all lol
It was so wholesome, yet so hilarious. Which I also think is an accurate description of Sully himself.
1:03:20
Possibly the best part of this video. I was cracking up
Sully is a national treasure!!!!
Watching this I realize how nice it is in the later episodes that they show the little token of what everyone is in the private chats
Adam making Oli call himself a virgin on the count of three felt weirdly therapeutic.
Idk how strategically sound that was, but it was the most hilarious bit!
"We managed to drag Ben out of retirement for one last job"
One last job... that's cute
Isaac for the second half of the game: "Why are you booing me? I'm right."
Yeah but I was always confused on like he was right, but he had absolutely no proof of it just kept hammering it. That style of play works only once in a while. It won literally because Isaac knew the Meta context of "Adam is always evil"
@@neerdowell6687 they never trusted where he got his info since he was next to same neighbours the who time. No need for him to be drunk of lots of killing needed to see Adam and jon.
@@neerdowell6687 yea its not enough to have the right answer you have to show your work
@@neerdowell6687 You've said this a few times in this thread and I don't know how in the world you're coming to that conclusion. Isaac basically breaks down his entire line of reasoning at 1:11:30 & it's pretty on the nose--he basically figured it all out a little over halfway through the game. The "Adam is always evil" comment was just a joke he threw out once. At the end of the game everyone was joking about how all his facts kept getting in the way of the evil team's muddying of the waters. Isaac's teammates were acting more in lieu of evidence than he was without a doubt, ignoring him for most of the second half based on little other than the social read of him being "too aggressive".
58:00 Issac: "I'd like to make a prediction; we're going to win next round."
*checks runtime*
Bruh
Did the same thing, lol
I did the same as well
Lol yep, we were all like " na your not" but for real tho Issac killed it this game, took no BS and was straight to the point.
Having Adam and Jon put together this masterful plan and then Issac to start picking it apart only to be murdered, then having Laurie take up the evidence to bring home the victory was some death note shit right there
yea but they didn't do it, Ben gave the game to the good team by choosing to kill Luke. At that late in the game and in that situation, it was a total give away to deny the kill. Both teams made some bad decisions but the good guys just fell on their face over and over again with their decisions, and were rewarded for it
@@shock_n_Aweful I would have, as the imp, killed Luke that last round actually, as between the four, Luke was the least suspicious. That left three people who were under suspect, instead of two and one who's safe
I think Jon bundled irreparably when his argument for nominating sully was, "he might be drunk"
Whether a drunk or a mayor, either way killing sully would give the game to the imp.
If he had doubled down on "mayor claim keeps you in the game the longest", I think he might have won
Oli getting played was cool but Sully singing by himself in the town chat legit broke my heart. Our brave Mayor who won the game.
Sully on quizzlemania was the reason I checked this channel out. Awesome dude
Sully: im not gonna tell people my role right away
Also Sully: *tells everyone as soon as he chats with them*
30:20 Adam is playing the game like a genius - and then it just cuts back to Sully talking about Bananas hahahahah
Idk If I’ve ever seen a channel where all I think to myself is ‘I want to be all of their best friends ‘
It is my life goal
100% agree with this
They have been my best friends in lockdown lol
Same
I genuinely felt so bad for Oli 😂
Adam and Jon are evil geniuses, really wanted them to pull it off.
Also love Tom as the storyteller - voice smooth as silk
Adam is the mastermind, issac is the detective amd sully is the whole godamn show
I’ve tried watching other channels play this game, and none of them are watchable or even really understandable. Thank you for good editing and sound design!
Yea, something about this channels editing and production make it incredibly accessible for people new to the hobby like me. A lot of board game channels are just a bit /dry/
Yea agree with this statement. Such a shame cause it seems like a great game to play.
I felt the same way. Try searching Stream On Gaming! Or Steven Loomis or a storyteller view so you can see the entire grimoire most storytellers pop in and out of some whispers to help understand. There is a Facebook group "Dice Tower Werewolf" that I joined and plays all the time. There are beginner friendly games for you to join. I played with them after No Rolls Barred first video now I'm hooked. Start with Trouble Brewing before looking at the other more advanced scripts. Good luck!
Couldn't agree more this channel is the best!
The official BOTC channel has similar style videos, or POV so you can follow one players’ journey! Highly reccomend
Luke: "If they lied to Oli it will break my heart" (1:31:15)
Also Luke: "I was told I was the good twin and you were my evil twin. Maybe we're both the good twin!"
RIP The Billiard Boys, 2021 - 2021
Adam is FRIGHTENINGLY ADEPT at this. Every time I think he's made a mistake, he turns right around and covers for it with good ol' smiles and jokes. Get everyone off-kilter, and NO ONE will think about how your story has more holes than a plank at DrillCon 2013 (the most popular DrillCon in history).
So far he's been the best at playing the social aspects of the game whilst everyone else is trying to play "logically." Also I once won a game of Werewolf by getting randomly assigned it twice. The first time I COMPLETELY bungled it, but the second time I won using the gambler's fallacy.
The only thing I think he could’ve done differently is argue that Isaac was the spy and that Laurie was the imp. Isaac gunned for Isa and it would make sense for him to be the spy since he would know her role, and getting her voted out would be the easiest since nobody knew much about her. Then late game they could vote for the drunk mayor and win, which is why Laurie tried making it seem like Blair was the drunk (and then later kill her).
I ALMOST FORGOT HOW GOOD OF A STORYTELLER TOM ISSSSSS....THE MAN IS SHAKESPEARE WITH A MAN BUN ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Tom would be AMAZING at running this game. I hope that eventually he will be the storyteller in an episode.
@@damhnaitcockburn2970 💯 percent. And also added to the fact the Adam really knows how to play the game. So I wouldn't mind him being a player and Tom being a storyteller for upcoming versions of BOTCT
They legit made the drunk have to use the defense. "No youre drunk"
Honestly, I love all of your content, but if ever there was a game you NEEDED to revisit - nay, make a MONTHLY FEATURE - it was this. So, so pleased to see it's back for at least one more round, and hopefully many, many more. Love you guys!
Blood should be a monthly event
Nah, one every two weeks, like quizzlemania...
At least monthly but biweekly would be awesome
I think every two weeks would be a bit too much and get boring quite quickly. Plus there would be less of the regular board game club stuff which is still awesome. But monthly seems about right
@@dfoe108 I get your point on the other content, but I think because of the myriad of possibilities through the different roles and switching up players and storytellers it wouldn't become stale soon.
@@acgijzen That's a good point, and I'd really like to see Johnny Highjump and Bobby Little Legs as the evil team at some point. But if you have BotCT every two weeks, that means half of the board game club content is taken up by the same game which could make it a bit less special. Also, I would imagine this takes much more time and work to edit.
Most Valuable Player is Sully! Sang a beautiful melody, mayor victory, and most importantly was sober. Another dub for the good guys
Adam being evil and lying to one of the Billiard Boys is one of the saddest anime betrayals I've ever seen.
If anyone didn’t bust out laughing when it cut to sully singing “one is the loneliest number” by himself, then they have no funny bone. 😂
Issac did some AMAZING detective work. Too bad no one was listening.
Ben the GM: "There is a 33 and a third chance". hmmm. I have heard that somewhere before.
Was it though? He deduced "Adam is always evil" which is a very Meta thing to sus out. If I was Tom or Ben I would have made Adam the Saint... and watched the game end at like 10 min mark.
They say that all roles are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Adam Blumpy and you can see that that is NOT TRUE.
See, NORMALLY you got a 50/50 chance of winnin a Blood on the Clock Tower game. But Isaac's a detective FREAK, and he's not normal.
So you got a 25 percent AT BEST at sussin' me.
And then you add Drunk Sully to the mix, your chances of winnin' drastic go down.
See, the 3 rooms people can whisper in, you got a 33 and a third chance at gettin into the Billiards Room. BUT I got a 66 and two thirds chance of gettin in, cause the Billiard Boys KNOOOW they can trust me, so Virgin Oli won't even try.
So, Adam, you take your 33 and a third chance minus my 25 percent chance if we was not lyin' and you got an 8 and a third chance of winnin' at Clocktower. But then you take my 75 perchance of winnin' if we was not lyin', and then add 66 and two thirds percents, I got a 141 and two thirds chance of winning at Clocktower.
SENOR PLUMP! The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for your Sackerfice.
Steiner maths
@@jeffjokerdude1 Steinermath is ALWAYS a win.
Isaac keeping his same neighbour helped him not have to focus on his numbers that could be changing and just focus on the others. A drunk empath works best when you have at least one evil next to you or close to you. Jon and Adam where at the farside of the board so for a sober empath a lot of killing has to be done.
Seriously - you could do this once a month and I wouldn't get tired of it!
Oh my goodness you guys should make 'The Billiard Boys' Merch.
With a crying oli face LMAO
Happy, unsuspecting Oli face, with sinister Adam and John faces chuckling at Oli's naivety.
Want Billiard boys merch
Just finished watching. There are shows I watch On Netflix that fail to keep me on the edge of my seat as much as this video!
So much to de-compartmentalize. Issac singlehandedly delivering a Sherlock effort from the detective handbook Great stuff.
Adam was the stuff of supervillain legend. I had to root against him and Jon purely cus of how dastardly clever his play was and poor Oli getting “blackballed.”
And Sullivan “My Lips are sealed” Brown . 😂😂😂 you are number 1, not the loneliest number, just the most hilarious
10/10 content again. Best part of the week as always!!
@@TheLastSane1well honestly I think Adam being the spy was a very logical conclusion for him to draw. When you play games like this proving who’s good isn’t always on your mind, it’s about proving why they might not be good and analysing every single move they make. He didn’t think that Adam was the spy from no information, he believed that because the only possible way for him to play the way he did and be evil was to be the spy. I think there were numerous times when he did believe Adam, it’s just that when it came to adams play he could only possibly be two roles. Process of elimination and exploring all possibilities, I just don’t think Isaac articulated that really well, although it is kind of hard to.
1:03:09 I can't man. Sully's gold. PURE gold.
More clocktower shenanigans? Don't mind if I do
The moment when Tom started introducing the players and I knew he was going to be co-story-teller. YESSS!!!! GET IN!!!
Isaac is SCARILY good at this game 😳
Honestly, I think we would be so happy if you made this a semi monthly thing. It's just amazing to watch.
Luke "The Trap" Owens.
BTWs, play this often because this type of game gets more fun the more people understand the core mechanics of the game, and then they can make more complex plays leading to even better games.
We have got to get an episode where Sullivan is the IMP, he would just say he’s the monk or other townspeople and no one would question it.
Soooooo stoked for this!!!! Can’t wait to see this and so many more episodes of it!!!!!
Tom making the introductions really made me miss CBW on PartsFunKnown..... 😢
I know. I miss it so much. We need to petition for a one shot again. Just to tide us over.
I love how satisfying this game is no matter which way it ends up. Feels like every win is earned.
Tom is the best narrator ever. I need him to admin all games that require deeper storyteller.
tom: "extra special thanks, once again, to our special guest storyteller ben from the pandemonium institute"
everyone: _polite clapping_
oli: _pleased nodding as if the applause is for him
"We pulled Ben out of retirement for one more game"
O how little did the NRB crew know at the time
"Drag ben out for one last job"
28 episodes later😂
already excited to see Tom presenting this edition pf Blood on the clocktower
If you make these every 2 months or so, you'll have a banger of a series.
I've just seen the start of Adam's scheme and he is an evil genius.
Too bad his Moriarty went up against the Sherlock and Watson combo of Laurie and Issac .I love how this people play this game
1:51:54 - this describes most one-minion Spy games I’ve seen. You start from such a huge position of strength, but as the game goes on, things get rougher and rougher, because you’ve got no way to introduce any sort of mechanical misinformation aside from your own lies (which stand out the moment anyone pieces it together). Especially once people notice that all the most important roles are dying first, so it must be a spy game, which means they can trust all their info.
God, Tom is such a great storyteller!
Just a heads up this means Sully should be Board Game Club champ since Adam was on the losing team and it was a Mayor win.
It looks like Jon just rolled off of his bed tower and started playing.
That hair is all over the shop.
pretty fancy right
@@JonGracey69 Very much so.
I've missed Tom on story teller duty since CBW went on hiatus. This was a real treat, thank you all xx
The first game was fun to watch. This one is fun AND a nail biter.
I hate that Adams totally logical explanation basically got shot down just because it was Adam who said it tbh :/
That happens with an established group. They KNOW Adam is deviously clever, so they're always suspecting him.
PLAY BLOOD ON THE CLOCKTOWER ONCE A MONTH!!!
Amazing play from Isaac, Laurie, and Adam!!! Issac breaking it down like a detective, Laurie quietly playing exactly the same and Adam going around one by one shifting conversations away from Jon. Simply perfect!!!
I have not watched this yet, but I insist you guys make more Blood on the Clock Tower vids. ☺
I had a thought, what if Adam and Jon exploited the fact that they mixed up who the drunk was and say:
"If Adam's the spy, how on earth would the villains kill off the drunk gravedigger? She'd be super useful to the villains!"
This series is honestly some of the best content on UA-cam. I've watched every episode once, and have now watched 3 of them twice. Cannot wait for the next one in a few weeks.
Wouldn't it have been great if on day one, Ben had decided that Adam wouldn't register as a townsfolk? Like just to see the look on his face as he realises that his entire elaborately constructed plan has just completely blown up in his face.
Personally if I was the storyteller, that's what I'd have done. Just to see Adam try to bullshit his way out of the situation.
On a normal game, yes. But having Laurie seeing Oli as a possible drunk would've saved him.
@@TalesNT oh I hadn't considered that, I wonder if Adam realised that and factored it into his plans.
@@chaosbringer82 Adam had no knowledge of what laurie was told
He just guessed that the storytellers wouldn’t throw him into it so hard on night 1 which would’ve been really unfair
@@davidvanhorn2493 wouldn't he have seen it in his view of the Grimoire?
I love how this game has decisions like that.
It would’ve really changed where everything was going.
Since the first one of these I went down the rabbit hole and watched more Blood On The Clocktower videos. This has to be my favourite video I’ve seen though. Incredible storytelling, strategies I haven’t seen or thought of before (Adam), a complete unravelling of confidence into pure uncertainty for almost everyone... I also have MAD levels of respect for Isaac, such a good player. An absolutely fantastic game from everyone involved!
Jon not targeting a dead player night 3 had me tearing my hair out lol
Sully in the room by himself killed me with laughter just after Laurie mentioned he had a suspicion on him. 1:03:07 !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣Love this channel, please make another!!!!🙏
Behold. Drama school Blampeid ❤️.
I really want this to be a regular thing! Also Sully and Jon as the evil team would be hilarious
I understand the channel wasn't created solely to make Blood on the Clocktower videos, but so help me I will continue to watch these for hours and hours on the edge of my seat and love every minute of it.
There needs to be a film adaptation of this game -- Blood on the Clocktower sounds like a fantastic murder mystery movie.
Laurie: "Sully's been playing a quiet game too"
Meanwhile all alone in the lobby Sully's singing "One"....
The poor man always being left alone....and HE'S the suspicious one lol
In the words of the great Diddy in Get him to the Greek "I LOVE THIS GAME!!!"
Also by Jim Carey in Cable Guy
Also patrice evra
Again, UA-cam needs something stronger than a “like” button.
I'll throw in with "once a month." Gotta see everyone get a go as Imp, at least...
Luke going from imp in the last one to saint in this one…top ten anime betrayals
YES!! I’ve been obsessed since the first episode!
Along with Wil Wheatons Tabletop and the Dice Towers top ten lists I don't think I have ever enjoyed a series as much as this one, much due to the players involved. Keep it up and a big thank you to all of the participants.
The moment Oli found out just broke my heart. Great second outing, guys. Heres hoping there will be a third
OMG THIS JUST MADE MY DAY
I hate the Mr Davis character on WT, but I love Oli on the other brands, and it broke my heart when everything was revealed. Another excellent episode and now I really want to go break the hearts of all my friends
Needs to be a channel series... Hopefully monthly, please.
31 games in, I'm so stoked y'all didn't stop at 2!!!!!
NRB-BOTCT is pure enjoyment ❤❤
* I like that Sully went "I told everyone who I was last time, not doing that now!!" and promptly IMMEDIATELY told multiple people who he was
It's been 3 years, but one thing remains the same: choosing friendship is the wrong choice.
Good job listening to us to make a sequel. Loved it even more than the first. Now with that being said... DO IT AGAIN PLEASE
NOBODY does intros like Tom. Get that man on Cameo.
Such a brilliant group! Adam you are a genius. Oli, duped by the evildoers, has my deepest sympathy. Loved this ,but only once a week is complete pants lol. Thank you all for the laughter. It's another great boardgame round!
Another great game of Blood on the Clock Tower. Few things,
1: Hope Isa becomes a regular or periodic player. Could be another person who becomes more over than the WT boys 😅.
2: Sully becomes more and more fantastic with every passing game
3: Issac was DETERMINED and did very clever deducting.
And 4: MAKE MORE OF THIS PLEASE! I can sit back and watch an hour or more of you guys having fun, entertaining us, and slowly losing your minds. Oli's head to hands motion is priceless 😂😂
Jesus, Oli was just PLAYED. Poor bastard.
YESS!!! This was everything to me! I absolutely friggin adore BGC.
Adam, buddy, I don't know how you're going to do it...but this needs to be a regular on the channel. Maybe once a month or bi-monthly or something.
Keep up the fantastic work!
In contrast to Luke, Jon is a good liar. 😁
Board Glame Club is becoming Blood Glame Clock, and I love it
This has been the unequivocal highlight of my week. Watching Sully's serenade to the empty town square was heartbreaking and pantwettingly hilarious in equal measure.
Watching this back just to timestamp some of my favourite moments, like the evil behind the billiard boys, and Luke watching the heartbreak before his eyes.
26:05 The first time they laughed at him.
43:56 The moment Oli left and they were really enjoying Oli's misfortune.
1:31:05 "Oh Oli, have they hoodwinked you?"
1:39:32 "Once upon a time I could corroborate..."
1:46:46 "There was never any Billiard Boys Oli!"
1:48:44 The final reveal
The Quizzlemania of the channel! FEED ME MORE!
Love this, thank you all so much for giving us a round 2. The way the storytellers manipulate players and bend the rules is amazing work. Hoping for a round 10, and everything from now till that point obviously.
This is by far the best game you guys play.
MORE PLEASE ❤
I can't even begin to explain how much I love this. It was great to see Adam play too!
And finally, just to echo the comment I left on last week's board game club; SULLY ❤
