MrSarkhan:
ihlendrax: !chat
LRRbot: Chat? Engaging in mimicry?
Sorator13: something something don't challenge chat
Bobtheninjagoldfish: damn I missed Dale.
Getter404: The one thing I saw about the 4th one was Cthulhu's rules were "annoyingly vague"
HadesLeprechaun: surely none of us are obsessive about board games enough to look up new ones!
Azsedcf: Is there a low hum?
saucemaster5000: @Getter404 that's on point
Dog_of_Myth: !store
chaostreader: @azsedcf I think so?
KaiTerranova: @Azsedcf background music
Simonark: Surely, ignorance has been a bar against us in chat speaking up unhelpfully 100% of the time in the past!
Nigouki: yerp, there is ominous background music
Getter404: Mothman
HadesLeprechaun: Fresno Nightcrawler!
Juliamon: Play it safe, go with Pumpkaboo
GhostValv:
kumatsu: I'd use Sasquatch Ben in the woods sleeves
Juliamon: the BLUE lagoon
Juliamon: he said
saucemaster5000: Adam actually said the blue lagoon
LoadingReadyRun:
I'm playing some background music that is supposed to be spooky, but it seems more just a ominous tone
lirazel64: Oh wow, a Dale!
KWardJenx: He first said you'd be the creature from the Blue Lagoon, which is a VERY different vibe.
Getter404: @LoadingReadyRun how very Lynchian
MacbethSeemsSus: @LoadingReadyRun Ominous tones can be spooky
kumatsu: @LoadingReadyRun yeah ominous tone was what I was about to describe it as
TehAmelie: the creature from the Blue Lagoon, that'd be the baby right?
Getter404: The 2nd one was American Cryptids, the 3rd one was Greek Monsters. this one is Some Stuff
LoadingReadyRun: Let me know if the background music is too annoying
NimrodXIV: like they do
kumatsu: So the town is Holy?
Dog_of_Myth: Ah, so Butte, MT.
lirazel64: So, N'sburg.
FarleyF: when you arrive be sure to mention "something sure does Sphinx around here"
TehAmelie: didney worl?
Nigouki: Disneyland is like Vegas - nice to visit but do not stay
lirazel64: That's the entrance to the rum tunnels.
Juliamon:
an yeti
FarleyF: Yeti gain we need to remove the Sphinx in the town
definenull: is it really?
Getter404: Surprise it's a Pandemic
kumatsu: "We all just dipped"
definenull:
Orxolon: have you ever been evacuated?
FarleyF: twirl your moustache
TheMandrew: Legally Distinct Monster Squad?
superdude097: The Enigma Troupe
PharaohBender27:
definenull: maybe they're a lycan
Orxolon: a like E. Nigma
TheAwkes: Strong worldbuilding.
KeytarCat: SotsV
AFamiliarCalledEl: So uh, are your family all Owlmen, or was it a coincidence?
Juliamon: grazing
Getter404: The Big Gulps
definenull: excellent
BusTed: 🤔
Orxolon: new quote for Dale?
kusinohki: bring back the revengers!
FarleyF: @micalovits when your pantry is filled with edible panties
kusinohki: something someting panty raiding a harpy...
Orxolon: do you have like an action counter thingy?
Vilun: goal: prevent ourselves from dying... isn't that just everyday goals?
Mattmitchell45: Watching Ben Re-animate is probably terrifying
Getter404: This is *really* bringing back my desire for a Return to Dark Tower run.
definenull:
micalovits:
Uhhh, those look so much cooler than the old perk cards
definenull: this overlay is neat!
PharaohBender27:
Orxolon: it kids
saucemaster5000: so... we're gonna kidnap kids?
roticet: "Rescue"
saucemaster5000: maybe we just want to make sure the kids watch
TehAmelie: i'll believe baby yetis are called kids, like baby goats
kumatsu: Tear down the Matterhorn, got it
AFamiliarCalledEl: Have to make sure the kids are witnesses so that they properly learn to hate the town
Bobtheninjagoldfish: challenge it to a spelling bee.
Orxolon: @Bobtheninjagoldfish hahahaha
definenull:
"too much to go through" appears to be a theme in this game
ThorSokar: #TeamNoHit represent!
kusinohki: ick it is a magic math square...
micalovits: Gotta answer the riddle
spinebustertee: So excited to watch the VOD on this, the original Horrified is one of my favorite games. Good luck have fun y'all!
LoadingReadyRun:
Sphinx: "You must solve THE SODOKU OF FATE"
Orxolon: kinda off topic: Is X com returning?honest curiosity
TheManaLeek: Monsters have that go juice, going all the time
Chesul: It's also possible for three monsters to go, one of the two going twice.
kusinohki: not the sudoku of fate! I'm better at nonograms!
KaiTerranova: fortune teller, give me your strongest fortunes
definenull: continuous! enthusiastic! consent!
Getter404: Set it up right and Cori-bot could use 3 actions to move someone at warp speed
Orxolon: yeeaaahhh it is!
Juliamon: hah it totally is
Orxolon: wow
Getter404: Agatha Crane? Wait, wrong Cthulhugame
Orxolon: i want Magus scythe
definenull: yeet stuff
Diabore: ben prepared
Sarah_Serinde: !addquote (Heather) [now] I'm gonna Kindness War the shit outta this.
LRRbot: New quote #9112: "I'm gonna Kindness War the shit outta this." —Heather [2024-10-09]
kumatsu: all I know about it is there's a haunted house of it at universal
PharaohBender27: And it was black?
Orxolon: was it black?
Getter404: Heard it's great atmosphere, low actual spooks
Juliamon: Ghost was phone??
ThorSokar: What did Cori watch?
MAPBoardgames: Rotary phone? the horror!
northos: honestly it would be spookier if the phone wasn't black. then you'd be wondering the whole time where the other one is!
Orxolon: is Valgavoth in this game? xD
LoadingReadyRun:
"Hello? Is that Ghost? This is phone"
Orxolon: Cori,what did you watch?
micalovits: They could make a version with magic monsters
truenamer_01: @LoadingReadyRun No this is patrick
kusinohki: what kind of long distance charges do you get calling the afterlife??
JKBalch: Spirited ones
roticet: 3 soul tokens a minute
Orxolon: recomendation: no one will save you
truenamer_01: @kusinohki They're killer, but you can add it to your last cable bill along with passage on Charon's boart
CaptainSpam: GENTLEMEN! BEHO- oh, just Dr. Weir. My mistake.
SacrificialToast: it's very hard for ravens to quote Nevermore on the typewriter because they can't get the " mark
kusinohki: I heard "dr weird"... totally not strange or fate...
Getter404: "back pack for his apple sauce..."
116 raiders from benjamin_wheeler have joined!
truenamer_01: Hello Wheeler. Thank you for coming. It's great to have you.
TehAmelie: are there doppelgangers in the game? cause we got another Ben!
Orxolon: i am never picky,but can we do something to read the cards better?or am i going blind?
RealGamerCow: I think it's just a bad font
Juliamon: yeah this font sucks
Orxolon: i agree
kusinohki: yeah, can't read the font of dr weir and the monster's text is way too small... *shrug*
RealGamerCow: Dr Weir Start: skybound galleon Notes: His ingenuity and 12 doctorates speak to his versatility in facing the void's many surprises
droodtheozeference: They only roll dice if there's someone to attack.
Getter404: Going grab my copy of Greek Monsters to double check
micalovits: In the older editions they only rolled if there was someone, but is something they could have changed
korvys: The Garden of the Rizzin'
Sorator13:
definenull: dale smashed his guitar into the lair entrance
kusinohki: is the guitar gently weeping?
Getter404: Greek Monsters is running 100% the same ruleset as World of Monsters (the big selling point) and yes, no target on the space = no attack is rolled
kusinohki: is there an item limit or weight hindrance or whatever??
Getter404: @kusinohki Not that I can tell since you use them for so much, but double checking to be safe
kusinohki: target (yeto) kids
QuixoticScrivener: My childhood self feels personally called out by that Walmart comment.
micalovits: So many hands o:
Getter404: Short manual a t 11 pages, so even if anything would be badly laid out it doesn't take long to cross reference
PharaohBender27: Is that bag sealed with velcro?
Getter404: Yep. The Universal one used a cloth drawstring bag but all the ones since were basically tarp material with a velcro seal
Cptasparagus: The constant tone background sound is a little grating
QuixoticScrivener: @Cptasparagus Great, now I noticed it.
TehAmelie: it's 2 am, do you have your yeti under control?
kusinohki: I want to make a yeti microphone joke, but I don't know enough about them....
FarleyF:
so you mean to say you want to act as Monster Bait

if anyone finds an online copy of the rule book for *this edition* of Horrified (world of monsters) it would be useful to have. I couldn't find one

TehAmelie: not just regular dead?
drkultra: chat this feels like Arkham Horror
Getter404: @drkultra Original or Card Game?
TehAmelie: Arkham North perhaps, or Arctic-ham
drkultra: @Getter404 the OG with the big unfoldable map
drkultra: feels like a fantasy version, it looks a lot newer too lol
Getter404: They put out a 3rd edition a couple years back that's a lot more streamlined and narrative-focused. Kinda divisive but never had the chance to try it
DrLigmaPhD: Emergency void meeting
Chesul: Isn't the sphinx within range of the hole?
LoadingReadyRun:
In some ways I was thinking that this reminds me a bit of some of the haunts from Betrayal at the House on the Hill

KaleidoscopeMind: blame james?
TehAmelie: James is the traitor?!
saucemaster5000: ben was the traitor
shendaras:
TehAmelie: oh noes
Juliamon: ah, classic "fuck this player in particular"
Getter404: Has the Sphinx seen anyone this game? Is it just wondering where everyone went?
Getter404: The hat is Jotaro, Josuke has Sean Young''s hair from Blade Runner
Strebenherz: this one?
saucemaster5000: I wonder if this card also was hated by critics and the general public
KeytarCat: @saucemaster5000 Joker movie didn't do well?
saucemaster5000: very badly, got bad reviews, made no money, and general audiences rated it lower than "madame web"
KeytarCat: oofa
Getter404: Made less money than Morbius' opening weekend
KeytarCat: fuuuuu
TehAmelie: i didn't even see the first Joker yet
LavenderCreations: from what I've heard the attitude of the movie was "Fuck you for making us make this" so.. it wasn't really happy to even exist
KeytarCat: I was hoping Gaga would get it something
KeytarCat: Oh dear
QuixoticScrivener: Its K-9!
TheAwkes: I didn't even know the second Joker movie existed until sites started to cover how poorly it did.
Getter404: @LavenderCreations The making of stories made it sound like it was a vanity project that received no notes from WB due to happening during a board reshuffling
TehAmelie: i guess the director went to an even worser place than when he made Joker because "nobody likes comedy anymore"
KeytarCat: I've been seeing ads for it for weeks
LavenderCreations: @Getter404 that could also be, definitely! it's hard to really know what goes on behind the scenes
tehfewl: they did the Mash!
Getter404: Not even a joke, Todd & Joaquin's initial pitch was to have it be a Broadway musical. Not a Broadway *movie*, , not a filmed performance, an actual Broadway play
Getter404: They saw the Spider-Musical and said "Nah I'd win"
saucemaster5000: to be clear, Todd Philips has made the studio billions so they gave him final cut, no notes, and he didn't have to test screen it
SaxPython: "You could just die" is so strong
KeytarCat: At least you can still do tasks
TehAmelie: very "team first" attitude
Getter404: Howard, help!
Getter404: Oddly enough, it stands for "Tentertainment"
TehAmelie: how? is like the sound an owl makes
KeytarCat: I pronounce it Olm'n
SaxPython: Howard Toward Howlman
Getter404: Keep in mind that while Move takes everyone, Guide only targets ONE NPC
TehAmelie: M'powerment
KeytarCat: still weird to me that the card for ghost items doesn't feature a ghost monster
Getter404: @KeytarCat A token attempt at not making the card TOO powerful
PharaohBender27: Welp
Getter404: Shouldn't Sphinx be on the Steam Plant? It moved and killed Heather
chaostreader: @getter404 Yes. but then if needed to move again.
Getter404: Oh right, Sword.
Bobtheninjagoldfish: I still can't hear Dale say the word "Stilt" without expecting "Puffer" to come afterwards
PharaohBender27:
The heart of the cards betrayed
KeytarCat: This map reminds me of the Summer Camp Slasher Flick board game
Getter404: @KeytarCat Final Girl?

KeytarCat: @Getter404 Last Friday. I had to go find the video I watched

PharaohBender27: Hey, so, if I might ask any mods present: Have you experienced any weirdness in finding clips or anything? Long story short, I noticed a lot of clips I'd made were at 1 view, and I looked at the past week's clips, and 75 of the 185 shown were at 1 view. Historically, 1 view means no one has looked at it. I posted about this on Mastodon, and Graham replied that something odd's happening all around with clips. I wanted to get a mod perspective on what’s been going on on that front, if that's OK.
PharaohBender27: And to be clear - most of those 75 1-view clips had unique titles. Not too long ago it seemed like even some random untitled clip would get at least 3 views.
Juliamon: Do you have a number I could use to compare to what LRRbot sees? Like, how many clips did you make for Dice Friends this week?
Juliamon: LRRbot sees 19
Juliamon: (of 30 total clips)
PharaohBender27: OK, that's the same number I'm counting. 15 of those are at 1 view.
PharaohBender27: It's just odd to see so many clips at 1 view even after a day or so; that didn't use to be the case.
Juliamon: Also nobody's reviewed the clips for that stream yet
PharaohBender27: Gotcha. But it's still been a break from past trends, thus my query. I almost wish I'd just randomly screenshotted how many views were registered for the past week's clips before they changed their interface.
Juliamon: yeah, it's still possible something's fucky
PharaohBender27:
But good to know LRRbot still sees all
PharaohBender27: Also, mildly related - I've mostly gotten used to the new clipping interface, but goddamn do I not like the way you move the "where you are at" bar if you want to check a moment in your clip - it feels like I'm having to drag the dang bar
Reset scrolling
