blood on the clocktower, funniest game I've participated in 

Just for context:

Artist - gets to ask one yes or no question to the storyteller
Golem - can only nominate one player ever in the game, and when they do, the targeted player dies
Mezepheles - learns a secret word at the start of the game, which turns the first good player that says that word evil

This was the funniest game of BotC I've ever participated in. For context, the Mezepheles player in this game was a fellow purple lizard who I'd been on opposing teams with for the ENTIRE night. *Every* single game I was good, she was evil, and vice versa, and many jokes about the purple lizard coalition being shattered were made.

Artist: Hey storyteller, can I chat with you?
(Artist and storyteller step away for a moment)
Artist: Okay, so I asked if one of my neighbors is the demon and got a yes.

Demon: Uhhhhh...
Me (golem): Great! I'm the golem, so I'll take myself out of the picture once nominations open.

Storyteller: Nominations are open
Mezepheles: Wait uh, can I talk to Karma?
Artist: I nominate (demon)

(the vote goes through and passes to put the demon on the block)

Me (golem): I nominate myself! :D
Storyteller: Karma nominates herself... and dies.

Me (golem): Can I go talk to (mezepheles)?
Storyteller: Yeah you know what, sure.

(Mez and I run to a private channel briefly)
Mezepheles: Yeahhh so we haven't been on the same team all night, and I'm just here to tell you that the Mez word is "etcetera" but I don't think you'll wanna say it since you put our demon on the block.
Me: Yeah, probably not, but it would be funny.
Mezepheles: Yeah, it would be.

(back to town square)
Me: Hey, does anyone know what etc stands for?
(town continues rambling about for a bit)
Me: Damn, weird that nobody knew that stood for etcetera.

I then converted myself to the evil team, which lost immediately after the execution went through, knowing damn well that the evil team was about to lose, and just shouted "PURPLE LIZARD SOLIDARITY!"

The grimoire reveal was so fucking funny
