Three and a half hours?! Amazing.

Question for the storytellers out there: Why did the Mathematician learn a 1 on Night 1? Weren’t both the Sailor’s and the Empath’s abilities malfunctioning?

Mazzis

A mathematician detects when an ability works abnormally, just being drunk or poisoned doesn't matter. It's an easy beginner mistake to make. Here, the sailor being No Dashii poisoned doesn't do anything on night 1. For example, a poisoned/drunk character getting correct info would not trigger the mathematician.

Demian Nahuel Goos

I do not agree. The sailor’s ability states that they make either themselves or the pointed player drunk. This did not happen, in other words it worked abnormally. It was an active player who should have affected other players but who did not.

Alec Gideon

I would have thought along the same lines as Demian, unless there is a distinction between working abnormally (like getting incorrect info) and your ability just not doing anything at all when it comes to the Mathematician? So since the Sailor being poisoned means they basically don't have an ability, does that not class as an ability working abnormally because it literally didn't do anything?

Flubbystubby

Great episode, but whoever is clicking the pen needs to stop...

Nowhere

yes love the long videos

Alexander Hoak

Shouldn't the sailor not applying drunk to either player have counted for the mathematician? That seems like an ability not working the way it is supposed to.

Resolute

Tilly may not be the most mechanical player but she nailed the vibes check perfectly and no one else voted with her!

Kyle King

What an episode: love the long complex nature of…. Did it take up a huge part of my day and cause me to be incredibly unproductive yes….. am I here for it …… yes

Kyle King

Nice to see Angela back !!

Kyle King

This would have been a fantastic episode to see from a player pov specifically Josephine or dom. love when they do that so you can try a dm figure out the puzzle your self.

Jacob Zanth

Daddy Ben! Give us a wizard game and my life is yours!

Kelly Leach

I'm still a bit confused by that because Mara Joy woke up and chose someone on the first night. Are you saying it's because her being poisoned mimics the storytellers deciding to make her drunk over the person she chose, which is analogous to a poisoned person getting correct info?

Mike Hughey

Since the first Minstrel night was fake and the second one was real, shouldn't the title here be "Liar Lyre"?

Micah Newby

I won't judge better or worse because they both work. I am only here to defend as written because it answered the question "what kind of a liar?" A "lyre liar" could easily be a liar who uses a lyre, such as a drink/poisoned minstrel

Bob Swan

Well done Emily very well played as demon, I loved it when she sunk that kill. MVP Tilly, only person to suspect Emily. Very well done Josephine for suspecting she was the lunatic with so little info to go on until the end. All in all one of the best games I have watched.

Xeph

@Ben But if the sailor doesn't make the other player drunk they must make themselves drunk, since no drunk token was placed due to their poisoning it would be abnormal for a math number. It's a bit of a weird interaction, but I think rules as written it should have technically been a math 2

Mazzis

This is how I think of it and would run it as well; if nothing *actually* happened or acted differently, then nothing has worked abnormally.

Will Seamon

This game was fucking phenomenal

Belle

What a wonderful game! I always root for evil & I loved Chris’s play at the end

Brian Marshall

Daddy Ben tormenting Jon with Yes is worth all of the buys!

Tcmano

I am loving the Yogscast collaborations! Please keep them up!

Demian Nahuel Goos

Thank you for the clarification. I have to admit that I do not like the ability of the mathematician. One wise man once said “If you can’t explain the ability in 15 words, it’s not a good one.” :P and this one is mire confusing than one would expect…

Jonathan Terry

Minstrels trigger when a minion dies by execution. Sully is evil but still a townsfolk.

Micah Newby

Like Ben said to Josephine (I'm late to the party and therefore am hilariously coincidentally only just now hearing it as I'm reading this comment), alignment (good or evil) and role (townsfolk or minion) are independent of one another

Micah Newby

I hilariously don't even think any of them caught it except maybe sullivan, but after this many years I am glad that Ben just straight up called them out for executing the only confirmed good player

Micah Newby

Except killing the only confirmed good player, which after this many years I'm glad Ben straight up called out even if I don't think any of them caught it 🤣

Grant Zabel Sr.

Frustrating. Rooting for the good team was hard this time. Boils down to lunatic acting far too late, maybe returning to dom for clarification on why nobody you’re killing is dying. But she’s inexperienced. Hard to win like that.

Alice Ryder

hello all. What's the name of the non-pateron version this month? I can't find it on youtube!

Ryan Winwood

There wasn't one. The last non-Patreon BOTC was Ravenswood Bluff Incorporated in January. They generally keep BOTC as a Patreon exclusive (barring the in-person ones that are Kickstarted), sometimes dropping a public episode to promote the Patreon.

Kommissar Simon

Dom is lowkey right every time straight out of the gate xd

Harry Tanner

But in the world where the sailor doesn't make someone else drunk they make themselves drunk, and that didn't happen. But following the logic that there was no mechanical differences then surely the sailor dying also wouldn't tick the number up because in that world they would have drunked themselves and died anyway?

Harry Tanner

But something did happen. The drunk token was prevented from being placed.

Jacob Glicklich

Laurie wins again! Is this the first time he has ever won as evil? Good game. Very strong maneuvering by Emily, that sunk kill really tied the good team in knots.

Phil Watkins

Jon's game awhile back where he was the actual demon fooled into thinking he was the Lunatic has permanently scarred him for all future Clocktowers

Harrison

Tilly the goat!

Avery Auric

This might be my favourite game I've ever seen NRB play, what a banger. Dom's situation had me CACKLING. Really been appreciating all the new cast involved as well. Josephine's played really well considering her lack of experience, hope to see more with her.

Vaxildidi

Emily played a blinder.

stephen Hopkinson

I would love to see if Mez made the lunatic to say the magic word

Glenn Owens

At the time they thought Angela + Sullivan were a potential evil team. I don't think it was a mistake to eliminate that world. Because of how all over the place Angela's information was there was a good chance they were killing a marionette or widow poisoned empath, which isn't a terrible thing to happen.

Kathleen Goetting

This will go down as one of my favourite and most memorable games. First and foremost because of Sullivan’s washerwoman character, and Ben’s “YEESS.” at Jon. And then also because Tilly, Emily, Dom, and Chris are such a pleasure to watch play, maneuver, and figure stuff out.

Daniel Joseph

This was a really great episode 11/10

2026-09-06 14:00 Is it ever mechanically allowed that you would tell the Lunatic that there is another Lunatic?
2025-12-23 18:42

Ryan Winwood

Mechanically, yes, it's technically allowed. But in practice, an experienced Storyteller like Ben would never do it. It basically means the Storyteller is guiding the kills, and in a standard (non-Atheist) game, that's something you want to avoid at all costs.

BigRed04

IYKYK Sullivan doing a great impression of Oli pronouncing former AEW Abadon

Beth

Watching Chris try to get Mara say the guest stars on scooby doo instead of just asking if she wants to be a guest at his inn is cracking me up

Loved this game!!! Wow! This might be my fave one as well. I've always wanted to see a really successful lunatic game, and I loved the touch of having dom the librarian believe he was the marionette. Having the marionette on the same script as the no dashi - I fully understand that now, chef's kiss, because each poisoned player might believe they are the marionette. So many instances where people are given the incentive to join both teams. I really, really wanted emily to just pull john aside on the last day and give him the mez word so they could all win together - and it sounds like he would've been totally up for it! Honorary 5th member of the evil team. Ah what a good game, and you could see the puzzles in this one were giving everyone such joy to try to solve - like dom giggling the entire time trying to figure out his team! What a good balance of clever plays and fun dumb chaos

neonblackdirtinthegarden

Not even finished with night 1 and it feels like the good team has already lost. More than half the Townsfolk are poisoned, a good player is guaranteed to turn evil due to the extremely easy Mezepheles word, and the Lunatic and fake Marionette are going to completely poison the well of information. Ben always talks about how the evil team usually starts at a disadvantage, but I absolutely don't believe that's true in this game. The outcome here really looks like a foregone conclusion, and it's hard to get excited to watch a 3.5 hour video that starts like that.

neonblackdirtinthegarden

I always root for the good team as well (it seems we're in the minority on that which lowkey makes me concerned about the fanbase at large) and this episode was a hard skip for me after night one. I looked at the grimoire after the night one setup and immediately saw there was like a 95% chance for evil to win, went to the comments and saw I was right, and decided I could just save 3.5 hours. I feel like sometimes the Storytellers go overboard wanting to make everyone poisoned and put a Lunatic and a Marionette (or fake Marionette) in every game because "lol chaos lol so random" but to me those are the least interesting games.
