Ghost lawyer should be made into a role. Something like: Outsider - You can't nominate/vote until you are dead, then you can nom/vote as if alive

[@damhnaitcockburn2970]

OMG this sounds awesome. I want this character!

[@moth.03]

One of the Travellers called the Voudon has the power that only the Voudon and the dead can vote and votes don't need a majority to pass. Only alive players can nominate but it is pretty similar to what you were suggesting. It's a cool role

[@casualmarkit9969]

Outsiders getting a bluff so they can avoid dying while still claiming Outsider would be great on its own, the fact its something that also works with a 3f3 a powerful information role might want so that particular outsider could bluff a powerful town the demon wants dead is also great. The sheer passivity of it and its effects on the good team's potential behavior doesn't feel like it belongs on faster highly deadly scripts, but any that want to go slower and might include Legion on it could work out. Spies and Widows are always annoying so we skip over those. Boomdandy getting themselves killed by claiming it and getting executed at their assertion would be hilarious, depending on the fidelity of Goblin rulings a goblin getting themselves hung and only part way into the vote claiming goblin, but before most got to vote etc., could also be Glorious to watch. A good player getting better on their death and not specifically only by demonic hands, gives a demon that claims a one and done power breathing room day one, as either a sacraficial minion (Baron, a self poisoning Widow, or Boomdandy, really are the three most consistent achievers of this) or a true Ghost lawyer taking the hit would be better in the eyes of good than just arbitrarily killing a "spent good," not to mention the minion giving the demon cover if it wasn't one that spawned an outsider until the minion gets outed for suspiciously lacking behavior after death. The way this simple ability is written creates plenty of unique opportunities that would honestly do great in a lot of cases and generate agency in a lot of areas players are currently pigeon holed and trapped in with currently available powers. Thumbs up for good stuff👍

[@Gadg3t_01]

Why didn't he switch over? Confused is he only allowed to be evil as Ken is alive? He should have switched.

[@CaitiffFTW]

​@@Gadg3t_01 It requires the Mezepholes to be alive in the Night phase, as the switch happens at Night.

[@casualmarkit9969]

​​​@@Gadg3t_01 The Mezepheles' power (essentially) only converts on their turn in the night order, which is effectively the first turn but other weird cases like Amne could go before it. Killing them the day before the night their power triggers will prevent the conversion; if the Mezepheles power worked only during the day, the storytellers would be forced to tell the converted immediately and not in the night. The only way to make it so converted are told in the night is to make the conversion only happen at night, and that fundamentally means it must be after the Mezepheles could be killed during the day and thus preventing that activation as we saw in the video, as the Mezephales must be alive when their power activates for it to work. The conversion power only activating at night also means it only checks in the night, and thus the moment in the day that could trigger it is kept in memory and does nothing until called for, and a dead Mezephales cant call for it as it cant check if dead. Ben has described the qualities of Dead players before; I interpret these sayings as a player that is actually dead is effectively stripped of their power that works when alive and the power losing that quality of "being in the game", with on death abilities being an exception as they specifically dont work when alive and then activate only after death, and Pit Hag being able to not trigger due to a dead player having a power due to Shabaloth and Scientist shenanigans creating the chance of doubles when their explicitly shouldnt be living doubles of some roles. Farmer works due to being experimental, the Farmer, and that its not like say Dreamer or something getting doubled, just a role balanced around multiples of it getting that.

Yes, it was delicious to watch. I confess I got a little bit frustrated by Sully (I love you, Sully) not trusting his info enough, following the "Carly was saved by the Tea Lady" worldview instead of "Carly is the leech that's why I read two evil players and died as soon as I told Carly my role" worldview.

[@joshuacarder5690]

Whilst it should be said that Carly played really, really well in a very tough situation, especially when she was hacked into a corner, Jon played an absolute BELTER of a game this session.

[@SaladinBarchan]

SPOILERS Considering how Dan seemed to struggle quite a bit in earlier episodes trying to wrap his head around all the complex systems and bluffs going on in this game (which I don't blame him) it was genuinely really nice seeing his face light up near the end with same kind of satisfaction as one does when completely figures out for instance a complex math problem before everyone else. But whoooboy was my butthole clenched the whole way through the final day. At first I was little confused on why Carley didn't kill Laurie based on what Ben said earlier about not leaving confirmed evil players on the final day but then I realised her real plan was probably the whole way through to just convince Sully to use his ghost vote on Jon which would have allowed Laurie to make votes on Brooke completely irrevelant. It didn't help that the group realised that danger only at the very last second.😂

[@Funktaro5]

Usually it seems better to nominate 2nd on the last day, because people want to hear both cases and you need a majority. People may save their dead votes on the first vote. But in this case since you only need one good vote for Laurie to pass it, I really think Carley should've nominated first. All she needs is a single vote. Also a good Carley never makes that 2nd nomination. If Brooke was the wrong kill Laurie would've out it through. Once he doesn't you just have to leave that choice. Carley even said as much BEFORE nominating, because she had no other chance to win without nominating. But she knew the play made no sense if she was good. Which is just another reason she needed to nominate first. (Totally using hindsight here though. She was hoping good would change their mind before they nominated, but it seemed very unlikely.)

[@sofiipote7]

@@kloaf1131 I now it's been a long time lol but think it WAS probably wrong, if I remember correctly. She was arguing it was a puka, but at least Adam got true info before he died (Dan as seamstress), and Brooke gossiped that it was a puka with no effect. So the only way Carley's theory stans is if both of them are evil with Laurie and Jon (so a team of four), but that would mean Ken is good and Adam guessed his role correctly out of the blue and withouth any hints. Of course this would need a lot of tracking and remembering which would've been difficult while playing instead of watching like me. Another option would've been that Sully just believed his darn info which was strongly reinforcing Jon and Dan's world view.

[@Veryslightlymad]

Spoilers after dots. Spoilers after dots. . . . . . . . . . I'm surprised that no one accused Carley of not being the Sailor by virtue of her not drinking with Laurie. If you know who one of the evil team is, why wouldn't you repeatedly drink with them to make them drunk, or at least save town from being drunk? Potentially stopping a Vizier-force could have been huge. In my view, that's the most suspicious thing she did. Poor Laurie, he played an absolute blinder, but there just wasn't enough juice. Ken swiping the noble bluff from Adam and then giving CORRECT info was also a great move, and did a lot to pull Ken back into respectability. I really want to give props to Dan, though. Not only did he and Jon solve the game, but when everyone was celebrating joyfully, he came over to Carley and still put her over as playing a good game, which, minor sailor/vizier nitpick aside, she did. Just good sportsmanship and emotional intelligence. I think Carley's rep can put an unfair and unrealistic amount of pressure on her, and she can become visibly frustrated in games she loses. While I think it's admirable how she's mature enough to keep that frustration to herself, it also sucks to see her torture herself. In another universe without a Dan, poor Carley is stewing off to one side while everyone crows and dances around her, and that's a crummy feeling. Good on Dan for thinking to include her.

[@Moleoflands]

I think the defence there is "ST will just make me drunk every time."

[@Funktaro5]

I was thinking the same thing. So suspicious to claim to drink with the gambler instead of the outed evil. But I think she was doing that so that she could pretend that some of Brooke's gambles were untrustworthy because of her choosing her. (for example, trying to keep other demons as possibilities for as long as possible) Actually I just thought of another 100% slip up too with her final story of who she was drinking with each night. One of the nights she claimed to have drunk with Jon (2 nights before Jon first got info) Brooke gambled that the demon was on her side of the town square. So therefore there should've been 2 deaths if Carley wasn't the demon. That basically 100% outs her as the demon in any world to Brooke by the end when she clearly hasn't been puckered, and then because Carley is so clearly pushing a Jon execution way more than Brooke it outs who is the host too.

i know on the Are You Evil podcast, adam mentioned wanting a 'story' through the BOTCT episodes to play out - i definitely think this satisfies multiple endings. laurie getting to be openly evil for one - if i didn't know better, i would swear he was manually assigned vizier. for jon, who a lot of people have been incessantly mocking for less than stellar plays (especially during the legion game), to step up and solve the game - and for the 'champion' and ultimate evil/demon carley to finally be toppled by a final application of trust and teamwork even while she was playing incredibly well for her circumstances. couldn't have asked for a better final episode and i hope everyone at nrb is satisfied with the way the storylines ended. im definitely hoping that season 2 goes ahead and will be scrounging up the cash to at least get the early access to the episodes, but if it doesn't go through - it'll be sad to see botct leave the channel, but i'm glad it ended on this note.

[@Moleoflands]

Definitely a redemption game for Jon. He played really well as Long and for once trusted the exact right people

You’re live clocktower videos are always incredible!! i encourage everyone to donate to the kickstarter if possible

[@CallistoTheWarriorQueen]

So happy to see Dan listened to in this episode 😂💗

[@lindseywhite3371]

This was wonderful! Talk about going out with a bang. As soon as I get paid I will go to the kickstarter, I need more BOTC in my life! Thank you all again for this series and all of the BOTC entertainment xxx

[@QuJee]

Kudos to Dan, who I think was the town's MVP. E: I also believe Jon is a reason for the victory, but he was swayed here and there. Meanwhile Dan was on the right track, ready to get everyone back in line

[@probablyniall]

Awesome series, thank you so much guys! Never have I so quickly backed a kickstarter in my life. Looking forward to the next (fingers really tightly crossed!)

[@donatohunter]

Backed season 2 before the intro finished. Have loved the in person Clocktowers a whole bunch.

[@BasketOfPuppies642]

I love how expressive Sully's facial expressions in his little intro were

[@viaderheid]

Big damn shoutout to the tech-crew! Whenever im'stayin in the hotels I make sure to visit the clocktower and the quality is alsways top notch. as always I have urges to delete this entire comment cause i'm stupid that way but damn I love this too much to not say I love all of yall

[@SnapGrapplePop]

I’ve said it many times. NRB’s Blood on the Clocktower series is up there not just with KZbin series, but with my favourite tv in general. You can be so proud of what you’d produced (both zoom & in-person.

[@lil_paups]

How is no one talking about “it’s kinda like Kirby if Kirby only ate corpses”

[@Lex_brooke]

Wow, what an absolutely fantastic crescendo to this series. Well done all

[@Lordborg909]

When Laurie pulled the Vizier.... just magic

[@RebeccaOwen]

Bravo! Bravo! Congrats to all players and crew for such a lovely production. Can’t wait for season 2

[@cyanyeti1556]

I feel like Carly left her minions, especially Ken out to dry. He got no bluffs no info just left in the room alone with the known evil person. With no info all they could do is chaos but easily dismissed chaos. She seems like a very solo player especially with the taking over maras demon game

[@Ajkal925]

I agree, i dont think shes an evil genius, just a great actor with really good rules knowledge. Makes for a great game though. Ken was in a rely tough spot but i think he could have tried harder to get a conversion. Oh well tho

[@sadiedasi3]

this episode had everything!! i was so invested in this good win

[@brningpyre]

This is amazing. I love it. I really like the dynamic the Vizier adds to the game. I really want to see Season 2 so bad. Please!

[@drewmatthews23]

Brilliant season love this show. Fingers crossed you raise enough for softer props to help everyone banging their heads.

[@CacklinKamala]

What a fitting end to the series to have it be the best game of the series! Massive congratulations to the good team who finally managed to see through master bluffer Carley's tall tale!

[@phantsyprantz6377]

Such a great way to end the season! I'll be backing the second season for sure.

[@digitalharmony26]

Nearly half way through the first pledge stage after less than 10 hours. A quarter was hit after two hours! Love to see the passion for it, genuinely such a fun series to have witnessed

[@acerumble]

Appreciated the screen time for the behind the scenes crew, teamwork makes the dream work! Or nightmare in this case, I suppose.

[@videk_online]

I've enjoyed this series immensely. Thank you!

[@dasLary]

seeing everyone excited about winning is the sweetest thing

[@kiranaun9593]

Just looking at the roles I can already tell this is going to be an incredible final episode.

[@CascadaaXx]

Carly as the demon will ALWAYS make for a crazy entertaining episode.

[@Yattah123]

Always love the end credits scenes/song so it was a really nice touch to see the production crew being recognised! Brilliant work NRB! Been binging BOTC for the last fortnight and it always makes my day. Thank you cast and crew for all the effort that goes into this whether online or in-person xx

[@karendionne2228]

I’m gonna go back and re-watch the other 5 BOTC vids now! They’re all just so good! Laurie wins MVP this time🏆!!! Runner up goes to Dan & Jon for sticking together and staying the course🏅. Honorable mention goes to Adam for d*mn near immediately switching teams🎗, that’s my boy!😁

[@anidiotsguide757]

This is one of the best ones ever! Laurie is having the best time.

[@emillibrown5547]

These videos always are the best part of my day. Very good work!

[@jaibhavsar1]

Holy shit, what a game to end this season on! Great work by everyone. Hope you guys get to do many more episodes.

[@NightLoveStar]

I freaking love all of the songs NRB makes

[@gilado85]

I'm so sad to see the series end (already pledged for the next one) And on a personal note, I wanted to really thank Adam for his amazing cameo for my birthday! Been watching you on WhatCulture Wrestling, and now watching you on NRB! And thanks to the rest of the NRB cast for making such awesome videos! I've been binge watching all the episodes one after the other!! Again, thanks a lot!!!!

[@DKannji]

I found that Carlie basically dug her own grave by "targeting" Brook and John as sailor when "targeting" Laurie would be the wisest choice, particularly near the end where ST may very well "sailor drunk" the Vizier the longer the game goes on to give players a chance to kill him... that way they could've sunk a towns kill on someone who's likely killable. Tough game for Lleech though.

[@Moleoflands]

As ST, I probably would always drunk a sailor targeting an Outted evil like that

[@DKannji]

@@Moleoflands I would, depending on the balance of power allow the sailor to drunk one who's unkillable like the Vizier on select days, because it's a gamble for the players if the Vizier or Sailor is drunk, and it's can't be tested more than once a day.(and the sailor can't verify who's drunk)

[@Moleoflands]

​@@DKannji Sailor's drunkenness is meant to be a consequence of having a powerful ability, not a targeted power. The only circumstances I would allow it in a game like this is if the sailor was the only good alive against 3 evils

[@DKannji]

@@Moleoflands I would say that you can try to leverage your sailor drunkenness. Using it to try and disrupt an evil player should be a valid tactic.

[@Moleoflands]

​@@DKannji maybe. But drunkenness from sailor is intended as a drawback, not a benefit. It would be like Bounty hunter some how making a klutz evil and klutz choosing a evil player, so good wins or something. Bounty hunter making a player evil is meant to be a drawback

[@TheShwaMan]

What an emotional rollercoaster, so happy I put money towards this series! Can't wait to donate money towards the next season!
