I need to see an evil twin game where Dom is the good twin and Sully is the evil twin.

[@Thelunawolf731]

Oh poor Dom🤣❤

[@RADiGrazia]

Make it happen Daddy Ben MAKE IT HAPPEN

[@scottwallbank4794]

I want that but Brooke and Sully

[@stayfaded69]

Best game ever lol

[@jaysondavis9693]

Sully would somehow give away his role

[@KEVIN-vd3qe]

Laurie's next character : "Each day, everyone has to listen to what you say and agree with it. You can't die. Nobody can say anything about your hairline or they die"

[@NoRollsBarred]

LAURIE: This gets my vote

[@EdsonR13]

I dub this new role the marie sue

[@christiangarza8122]

Laurie still loses the game because the rule of funny

[@stewartmoyer5105]

All Roles are randomly assigned. I hope Adam gets to play "The Laurie."

[@callmecarrots9628]

This recently happened in “A Magic, Grand Vizier” 😂

[@simplyphenomenalmike]

Isaac (as the monk talking about the monk): They've clearly done nothing all game. Absolutely love Isaac.

[@aricaine5024]

"has sully info helped anyone" "ooh me yeah" FUCKIN LAURIE GOD HE IS SO FUNNY IN THIS

[@fleacythesheepgirl]

“Is there a roll that just can’t die, knows everything? I’d like that one next time please” -Laurie And thus the Visir was born.

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

*Vizier

[@gingergamer3270]

It really is the perfect role for him

[@damonokami8770]

the heart between Brooke and Sully is adorable and ironic at the same time considering that the heart is Dom

[@sdspivey]

It should have been Adam.

[@OptimusProvost]

“Please be quiet! We’re trying to decide whether to kill you or not!” God I love Dom!

[@subman23]

You left out the best bit! Scully: please don't kill me. You don't want to kill me Dom: please be quiet! We're trying to decide whether to kill you or not

[@unexpected2475]

What's even funnier is how tantalizingly close Dom was to ending the game in under half an hour.

[@aricaine5024]

everyone in private: sharing info, claiming, figuring stuff out brooke and sully: *clownery*

[@IceMetalPunk]

I think that just sums up Sully in a nutshell 😂

[@laurapickens]

No yeah, that's completely possible

[@DevilboyScooby]

Brooke saying "I'm a big bad role" to Carley was the most honest information in the whole game 😂

[@Trentus86]

Still some of the best content on KZbin. And Daddy Ben please word vomit all you want, one of the things I love about these series is that we get to see the game masters ongoing thoughts in how to manage the game.

[@TheOnlyValken]

I absolutely agree. In fact, one of my favorite parts is hearing Ben and Tom discuss the days events at the beginning of each night. It offers so much insight into the complete strategy of the game. As a hopeful storyteller when my copy arrives I really appreciate hearing their take.

[@plusmental2660]

Hear hear! Love the Daddy Ben content and seeing how his mind works

[@davidruckmancreative]

The "Sausage Demon" prefers his formal name, the "Killbasa," thank you very much.

[@nateculver7050]

You win.

[@soapybangsyoma]

👏👏👏 you may take your prize and go home.

[@OptimusProvost]

That needs to be a demon in an expansion pack or something!

[@waynemarshall7632]

You're the wurst

[@mediocreatbest9203]

1:19:23 carley: "filter it out, jon. be strong. you survive this! you made it out of the womb with that bastard" 😂😂😂

[@bloergk]

Did Brooke really take the time to record all the voice lines Sully improvised for sockpuppet-Brooke post-game?! It sounds EXACTLY like her, but the words are so perfectly synced with Sully's mouth movements that I wonder if you applied some amazing audio filter or something. If she did record it all, that's some astounding attention to detail...

[@digitalharmony26]

Laurie outing Andy as evil and Andy outing Brooke as evil and were both 100% honest lmao interesting play for sure.

[@ElderonAnalas]

lol, exactly, but i was kind of angy that andy confirmed the Brooke suspission, seemed like super bad play

[@hopefulhero95]

I don’t know how Tom keeps getting better at narrating

[@TheOneWhoReportsForDuty]

Doing something repeatedly you’ll probably find ways to improve, especially if people give tips as I imagine people have.

[@neilmcdade608]

The man is a straight-faced genius. His delivery adds so much to his words, ESPECIALLY his comedy.

[@Immafuggin182]

Hearing Ben’s thought process is super helpful as someone who will mostly be storytelling. I’m beyond excited for this game. This the best group to showcase what I think to be one of the best games out there (that’s not out yet 😂)

[@aricaine5024]

"is yours blue?" "it's orange mate" ... "yeah I figured you'd say something dumb like that" bro 💀

[@TheOneWhoReportsForDuty]

No one: Laurie after the intro: I nominate the entire town excluding me.

[@OptimusProvost]

I can’t wait for the inevitable game where both Brooke and Sully are evil!

[@Thelunawolf731]

Samee😭

[@HonorThyTarkus]

With Adam, Carly or Angela as the Demon

[@EmmaBonn96]

We are evil We are evil

[@IceMetalPunk]

@@EmmaBonn96 "You are evil!" "Yes, YOU are evil!" "YOU'RE EVIL!" "AND YOU'RE EVIL!" *Three hours later...*

[@sideshowdayv]

Tbf to Andy talking to Laurie wouldn’t have helped, Jon was already witched and Laurie didn’t push particularly hard Jon just decided to nominate

[@doctordre3000]

Yeah right? Jon is just too triggered. He would nominate Laurie no matter what. Just unlucky from Andy.

[@IceMetalPunk]

"I'm a big, bad, powerful character." Well, Brooke, every word of that was true, especially the middle one 😂

[@donatohunter]

I’m about 30 min in and the first thing the demon does is a good ole bit instead of giving their minions bluffs, and it’s super smoothly played while hilarious.

[@jeffmcleod3829]

“I’m not hearing that from you. You just want to kill people indiscriminately. What kind of madman does that?” - Issac God bless you Issac. In a game full of meta, that was GD beautiful.

[@Thelunawolf731]

From the guy who wants to kill all saints, it was georgous!🤣😭❤

[@GQSmoos]

If Sully didn’t exist, this would have made Laurie hands down the greatest NRB personality

[@Funktaro5]

Adam is pretty damn charismatic too though.

[@marvinko6610]

I audibly gasped when Adam lied to Carley. On a second note it seems I'm way to invested in this as it seems

[@Kings_Quest]

Like last month never happened. But forreal get me Adam and Carley on the main stream that would be ultra funny

[@neilmcdade608]

Unlucky, Andy. Seems like a great player but rough start. Hope to see him back with more luck on his side.

[@comp.lex4]

Genuinely, his bluffs were so well believed. Just that night one good twin curse... Gah!!

[@chrisseddon5823]

Loads of upside to this new guy. Seems friendly, competent and up for a laugh. He's gets a pass

[@dennisarmstrong8866]

He barely talked

[@CEJRAID]

Spoilers… I can’t help but feel bad for Laurie. He’s one of the best players but he continuously gets screwed by bad luck and people choosing not to believe him. And I seriously don’t understand how Carley almost never gets killed.

[@travisbic]

Carley is just incredibly good at this game. She likes playing evil. So she's gotten very very good at convincing people not to kill her. And Jon will confirm it always seems like a good ideas to go along with her until it turns out she was evil the whole time and most likely the single most important reason the evil team won. Spoilers... Thinking about it. I think it could have been a huge brain play for Andy to Witch Laurie. Then tell Laurie to nominate Jon. Because when Jon died (obviously from being Witched) everyone "knew" he was good since one minion wouldn't Witch the other. So they executed the other twin. But executing the good twin would instantly lose the game.

[@CEJRAID]

@@travisbic that is honestly a brilliant idea that you came up with. Have never played but desperately want to. I would never have thought of that. As far as Carley, I just don’t understand with all the lore that people are so willing to believe and go along with her. I think she’s been evil more than any other player. I know it’s not fair to go after anyone right away because they’re too good, but Laurie has kind of been targeted for being very good at deduction every game.

[@CEJRAID]

Actually it’s usually just Blair not believing him and throwing him under the bus. Blair has the worst gut instinct of any of these players although she has a very strong understanding of the game.

[@travisbic]

@@11th-lemon I didn't think about the evil twin's ability going away when he dies. I did realize since posting that idea that it was unfeasible because you couldn't do it until the second day because the witch wouldn't know who the other minion was and by that point, you'd be running too much of a risk of giving your team away.

[@skyemitchell909]

This is definitely my favourite nrb series of games

[@GerritCoulter]

Thats a high bar!

[@q-tuber7034]

Name of British celebrity mentioned: raucous laughter. I am smiling politely along with Brooke, Carly, and Angela.

[@bogardeth]

There was a lot of mentions of "please kill Dom" but he was already monk protected so the best she could do was kill Isaac.

[@neothepenguin1257]

Oh yeah true

[@Ellie-rx3jt]

Who I believe she had already said to Andy was her intended kill before nominations that day.

[@barswa]

Yeah, I was thinking this too.

[@WhyseWytch]

Adam: EVERYONE EXCEPT THE EVIL PEOPLE ARE EVIL!!! Isaac was definitely the MVP of this video! The revelation about his role was glorious! Brooke saying "666" was frigging hilarious

[@DonsKihots]

This series is the best thing on youtube. Keep them coming. Thank you NRB crew

[@EmmaBonn96]

33:30 I want to see an entire no roles barred sock cast.

[@nickhowe4802]

Why Sock puppet Laurie will involve little effort

[@WhyWouldYouLikeThis]

Very unlucky for Andy, but shout out to him trying to play the meta!

[@cruzdoesstuff]

2:05:02 Epic foreshadowing for Laurie playing the new role over a year later

[@mdrglxix3699]

The "mini apple is" joke popped me, I'm willing to admit that

[@jameshind1468]

Laurie’s record does not do him justice! Laurie - Really appreciate your thinking and gameplay style. Keep it up!

[@DFW_Robbo]

Isaac's stubbornness, and unwillingness to let go of a theory is either brilliant and heroic, or one of the most annoying well poisoning attitudes, no in-between. Love it, (but kind of hate it too)

[@q-tuber7034]

Mayor was a good role for Carly. “Nerfed” just a little bit, playing from the backseat, helping the team pull out a win.

[@lexicornfell7361]

#NerfCarley

[@goalie5733]

She is scary good at this, even when nerfed. I’m glad my groups don’t have someone on that level.. she was all over vortox earlier than most, and she has past plays that are good. I note she had a whiteboard out writing… even during the intro.

[@GnarlyCarleyGaming]

@@goalie5733 My notebook is a wreck come end game. But I also doodle

[@goalie5733]

@@GnarlyCarleyGaming yes, but doodling is the mental gears grinding, and tells me you’re in game mode picking up small things very early!! Probably those things that let you see attitude changes for someone who’s on the other side or little details that let you know when their info is pretty sus. And the notebook being a wreck in the end only confirms how much info you’re pulling in a “small” amount of time! It’s definitely fun to watch you (and everyone else!) play and see you putting things together!!!

[@SirTyrin]

i loved adam and sully acting like a couple small children

[@thereal_jerrod]

I had never seen these Blood on the Clocktower vids until about 3 days ago. Went and binged all of them. What an amazing group, amazing game, and amazing storytellers. Love each and every one of these vids.

[@5434644]

Carley explaining monk to Issac made me chuckle.

[@statsy150]

I want a game where Sullivan is good twin and sock puppet Sullivan is evil twin

[@marqueeungovernable6170]

Good Lord, being an outed baddie feels so fun. I can only imagine what kind of chaos and distraction Laurie could have done if he had abused it more.

[@theakaneko]

Clicked as soon as the notification went off! I binged the whole playlist again just yesterday! So excited for a new episode; I love these! So excited to see all the shenanigans that happen this time!

[@GerritCoulter]

Thats commitment!

[@Phyrre56]

IMO the Night 1 information made it a little too obvious that it was a Vortox game. Empath & Chef information can't both be true. I like giving the Chef a 2, that's a great way to make Chef more interesting. Empath should have been given a zero. It both would have protected the Demon and supported the Chef without raising obvious Vortox alarm bells. I understand the logic that if you give the Empath a zero and the town figures out it's a Vortox, then the Empath is going to push on both neighbors. But at least make town figure it out first! Don't hand them an incompatible mess of info that screams Vortox.

[@glitchedandy]

You guys introduced me to this game and I'm OBSESSED

[@bennburns]

Sorry about that Jon.

[@Jubei66666]

Don't lie Daddy Ben. You're never sorry.

[@JonGracey69]

BUT ISN'T IT RANDOM BEN????????????????

[@olivierwieringa5682]

Carly is hands down individually the best BotC-player. It seems that from the start she was already five steps ahead of the rest, glueing the pieces together while in the process teaching some of the rules to Isaac, which made them collect the victory. :D

[@VixenIcaza]

Best for the NRB players certainly. But Ben, Edd and Kat from the pandemonium institute official vids are all a cut above even her. The game where Ben gets 1st day executed as evil and does what Laurie tried but better. *chefs kiss*

[@codyy2236]

I don’t know why Ben kept saying Brooke should have targeted Dom when he was Monk protected

[@damonscoleri736]

Same. I think in his mind he meant she would have had to get Isaac which would have removed the protection and given Dom bad info.

[@bennburns]

@@damonscoleri736 Yup.

[@caitlinh6631]

In my mind it’s so the true information isn’t able to be stated, but hard to back it up without the demon next killing the monk.

[@starace4031]

There's the good team, the bad team and then there's Adam, the chaotic third party. 😄 Love this series, everyone is amazing and it's really awesome hearing Ben's thought process and insight into the inner workings of the game.

[@thezanycat]

I don’t get why Ben kept saying that Brooke should kill Dom on the last night - he’d already been protected by the Monk? (ie. shielded from Vortox misinfo, and shielded from Vortox kills?)

[@novacrush]

Youre correct, it was a total head scratcher. He must've forgot I guess

[@gooper3644]

He probably forgot because there was so much discussion of the monk protecting from bad info, that the monk is also just a good way to not die. The actual best kill for Brooke would’ve probably been Isaac, since then Dom would get more bad info, probably just another 2

[@sammilksword5716]

Isaac going straight in for killing the twins again you fucking love to see it. Honestly surprised the last video didn't just end instantly due to the chaotic energy of him and Rosie being too much to handle. Awesome video so far, love the Sullivan/Dom and Jon/Laurie rivalries continuing. I'll shut up and go back to watching now lol
