50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

it’s the eighth day of production

  • Games
  • Tabletop

Yesterday was another great day of production at Tabletop. I had an insanely good time playing Epic Spell Wars of the Battle Wizards: Duel at Mt. Skullzfyre with Emily Gordon, Jonah Ray, and Veronica Belmont. We fully embraced the outrageousness of the concept, brought our ridiculous wizards to life, and got in touch with our inner 12 year-olds for maximum juvenile humor. Spoiler alert: this one is definitely a candidate for an extended cut episode.

In the afternoon, I ran Dread for Laura Bailey, Molly Lewis, and Ivan Van Norman. I was so focused on being a good host, and they were so focused on not letting the tower collapse, I forgot to take the obligatory production selfie with them. I hope that we’re able to convey the tension and terror in the final cut of the episode, because I think we all worked together to tell a really cool and compelling horror story.

Today, I’m playing Catan Junior in the morning with actual human kids, and this afternoon, I’m playing Libertalia with actual human friends.

    Looking forward to the possible future extended episode in the hiatus for season 4 of tabletop 😉

    As opposed to, like… cat children or dog children. Or horse children.

      As opposed to the adult children who are generally on TT. I count myself as a fellow adult child, thank you very much! Also, if you follow Wil on Twitter, you should realize that their pets are treated similar to children; something my wife and I also do.

    Can’t wait to see Dread, been curious about it as long as I known of it.

    I’ve played Catan Junior with my friends & their children & I really enjoy it (maybe because I have more chance of winning it than original game…. which I’ve never won)

    Games at work… then games at home… then games with friends!

    God, I’d love your job! But then, we have to play the characters we rolled. And I only rolled a charisma of 13 – which isn’t bad. But you’re the paladin of gaming, and you definitely rolled a 17 or higher. So kudos to you for using that roll for something fun.

    I’m really happy to see you playing a kids game. This should be a very entertaining episode, as well as informative.

    Catan Junior is so fun! I think perhaps later I will play it with my actual human children.

    Looking forward to seeing the Dread episode. I hope you had a steady table. I’ve always wanted to play the Dread scenario where the players all all rabbits in the style of Watership Down.
