I dropped by PAX yesterday and it was a lot of fun! I met some folks from the Beastieball crew and got to gush to them about how excited I am about the game to come out and got some fun candid conversation about them also being excited to not have to keep everything secret anymore, hah

I also played a couple of in-person games of blood on the clocktower! I pulled a good token both times, and the good team won one of 'em, and the evil team won the other. I was pretty helpful in both games and they wound up both being pretty fun stories, and it was really fun to meet all of the people who played, and everyone was a good sport about everything so it was all a super fun experience.

there were a bunch of other neat booths and stuff, but... those were the main two reasons I was excited to go so they were definitely my main focus :P

Also, tonight's games definitely prove to me that I love playing blood on the clocktower, and it's really fun with the group I'm playing it with. The vibes tonight were impeccable, really.

I'm pretty sure the main issue of the previous session that left a bad taste in my mouth was the players that aren't with the group anymore, because I'm absolutely immediately back to raving about how much I love BotC and how fun of a story every game told, win or lose

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

alright fine, I'll admit it, seeing a bunch of people playing Battle of Olympus made me wanna play it again

I've been playing some ZeroRanger offstream, so let's try some on stream!

haha, found a cheeky note on an old speedrun PB, "run under the influence of estrogen"

It's time for more Fields of Mistria!

I kinda landed on a nerdy trans nidorina vibe with this character when I made her a few months ago and still love her a bunch
