"No one can be lynched before the haunt". Which is just as well since we can't even role hint before the haunt either. It would basically be a blind lynch against someone who cannot defend themselves.

I would vote for you for not reading the rules, but since I did read them, I know that it wouldn't do anything.

Funny that I did read the rules. (shocked me too).. I used lynch as the generic term for the vote not to actually remove them from the game.

No one can be lynched pre-haunt. If a majority is reached, the target will loose stats and items, basically rendering them vanilla and fairly helpless.

Hope that helps. :P

I hope you don't mind Magnito, but here are the episodes so that people have a better idea whats going on..

I like Tabletop but I'm wishing they didn't mix in interview and gag reel videoes with the intro/playing of the actual game.

Hello, super looking forward to this. Though with going out for Thanksgiving to my aunt's I will not be posting much today.

This is something I normally don't do anymore, but I think for this game it is appropriate.

Vote: No Lynch

Not calling for an end of the day, so much as I'm putting that down now since I'm unsure of when I'm available later.

I have. I think there is the old school version and an updated version.

I think in the updated version the underground lake was in the basement rather than upstairs.

Never. It sounds fun though.

at the start of the board game, there are no teams yet. The players just move about the board, exploring rooms. The rooms might have items, omens, or events in them.

Omens are the most important type of card. They're permanent objects, like items, but they're also what determines the scenario, aka the "haunt."

Anytime a player draws an omen card, they roll the dice at the end of their turn, and if the total less than the number of total omen cards all players have, the haunt begins.
Which particular haunt is used is determined by a chart that references a) the last omen card drawn, and b) what room you're in.
The player that triggered the haunt is often the traitor, but not always.

After that, it's typically the traitor vs. everyone else. Oh, and the traitor often has monsters on their side, too.

So the traitor is known as such then? Does that effect the gameplay at all?

That's funny.

The traitor is known, but the win conditions for the traitor are NOT. Likewise, the traitor doesn't typically know how the rest of the group can stop him/her. I would imagine there'd be sacrifices for secrecy here given that we can just lynch the obvious traitor instead.

So the Haunt is a lot like the A plot of a horror movie. But with a trigger and a trigger(wo)man.

If you let them kill your dreams, it'll haunt you.

I have the game but really don't get to play it but have put in time with similar games.

@Vlad - Not familiar with "Cabin in the Woods" but if it's like this I'll check into it. Thanks for the recommendation!
