BOTC Recap:

Cleo and Martyn running the game!

Roles:

Gem- The Drunk, but she thinks she's the Librarian.

Oli- The Virgin

Bdubs- The Washerwoman

Impulse- The Scarlet Woman

Tango- Raven Keeper

Joe- Mayor

Jimmy- Undertaker

Ren- Empath

False- Slayer

Scott- Imp

Pearl- Poisoner

Roles not in place: Soldier, investigator, fortune teller.

Night 1:

Martyn and Cleo are informing the evil team who each other are. Scott seems absolutely delighted with his minions.

Bdubs is being told either Oli or Impulse are the virgin.

Ren and Gem are also receiving their information.

Gem was told either Ren or False was the drunk. This was faulty info because she's the drunk.

Day 1:

Cleo and Martyn are dead! There's a demon among us!

Pearl, Scott, and Tango are conversing. Scott is claiming he's a role that does stuff at night, Pearl is claiming she can affect the game in a really good way.

Impulse, Bdubs, and Joe are talking about how they have to figure out who the outsider is. Bdubs seems confused.

Oli, Grian, and Jimmy are talking. Oli is saying they should keep him alive and trust him. Grian wanted Jimmy and Oli to kiss.

Gem is telling Ren or False that one of them is drunk.

Tango walked away for a second so Scott and Pearl are strategizing. Jim then joined them. Pearl is note taking.

Gem stole Scott.

Oli went over to the Impulse, Bdubs, Joe group. Bdubs is convinced Oli is a demon.

We've got Ren and Tango conversing.

Back to the main feed!

Bdubs is calling for information from anyone. He is suspicious of Oli.

Joe is asking for who the outsider is. Gem is saying that there is a drunk but won't say who it is other than that it's not Joe. Ren is also confirming that Joe isn't the drunk.

Tango is saying both Pearl and Ren were outspoken about their roles.

Trial 1:

Bdubs is accusing Jimmy of being a demon. His reason is that he felt like it.

Jimmy's defense is that was not very nice and to please not do a bit and vote him out. Ren and Bdubs voted yes, but no one else.

Night 2:

Pearl poisoned Tango. This doesn't really do anything because Tango didn't die and he only learns I for when he dies.

Scott killed Jimmy. Of course.

Ren learned neither of his neighbors (Jimmy or False) are evil.

Day 2:

We've got Impulse and Scott convo, I think they're coming up with Impulse's bluff. They know Gem is the Librarian.

Ren, Bdubs, and Tango convo: Bdubs said he was given information on the first night that either Oli or Impulse is the virgin. He's decided Impulse is the Virgin.

Gem and Oli are talking, Gem is willing to die to prove Oli is innocent.

Gem is telling Tango and Bdubs that Ren is the drunk.

False and Scott discussed that False might be drunk according to Gem. False is saying she cannot test her role.

Gem is gonna sacrifice herself by nominating Oli to prove he's the virgin when she dies and he doesn't. This is so funny because it won't work. Because Gem is the drunk. And thus an outsider and not the townsfolk.

Oli and Joe are discussing the very possibility I just said. Oli had not considered that Gem might be the drunk until now lol.

Trial 2:

Gem nominated Oli to prove that he's the virgin. Again, this will not work. They've realized there are two possibilities: Either Gem is the drunk, Oli is the drunk, or Gem is a demon. Gem has realized she is the Drunk.

Bdubs and Oli PSA to not do alcohol and to stay celibate

Bdubs has nominated Impulse. He did not die. Impulse never told Bdubs he was the virgin.

Oli has been used and is thus useless as a virgin. This is just how the game works okay?!??

Night 3:

Pearl poisoned False

Scott killed Joe but that means it bounces onto someone random

Ren learned neither of his alive neighbors is evil

Day 3:

Oli died because the kill bounced off of Joe.

Cleo is reminded them to kill people.

Ren, Pearl, Gem, and Joe are conversing. Ren is revealing he knows that False, Jimmy, and Joe are not evil. Pearl is claiming to be the investigator. Joe is telling Pearl to look for anyone who looks surprised when someone dies. He's saying when Jimmy died Scott looked surprised, which is funny because Scott looked way more surprised when. Gem has figured out the evil team already lol. Pearl is throwing Impulse under the bus to prove she's the investigator.

Scott, Bdubs, and Jimmy are conversing.

Impulse, Tango, and Oli are conversing, mainly trying to figure out who the drunk is.

Sorry I got really distracted watching Pearl gaslight and girlboss I didn't get what anyone else talked about.

Trial 3:

Ren is nominating Impulse. He's claiming the investigator told him it was Impulse. Joe is backing him up because Impulse lied to him and Bdubs.

Impulse defense is that he's the soldier. He was voted to die.

Night 4:

Pearl poisoned Oli which is nothing.

Scott killed himself, making Pearl the Imp. Classic Scott behavior.

Ren learned 0 of his neighbors are evil.

Day 4:

Scott has died. Our living folks are Ren, False, Pearl, Gem, Bdubs, Joe and Tango. Pearl is now the Imp.

Pearl is in a complicated position rn. Shes the only evil alive.

Scott, Ren, and Jimmy are saying Bdubs is evil because he keeps acussing people.

Pearl and Bdubs are talking. Bdubs is still confused how his powers work and thinks maybe he was poisoned.

Oli and False are talking. They are also still deeply consider over whether or not he's the virgin. Gem came in and is convinced Pearl is evil and Impulse wasn't.

Joe, Tango, and Impulse are talking and Pearl told a different lie to Tango so now they all know she's sus.

Ren, False, and Oli are also sus of Pearl. This may be the end.

I think Scott overplayed by leaving Pearl alone.

Trial 4:

Pearl is claiming to be the investigator and that she was pinged that either Bdubs or Impulse was a Scarlet Woman. Joe is going in really hard on her.

Bdubs defense of himself is that he's an honest person and Pearl lied to him in their conversation.

Oli is saying that Bdubs did say he was the virgin and was right.

Tango is pointing out that Pearl lied to him. Ren is also going in on Pearl. Pearl is saying Ren misunderstood what she said.

Scott is saying he died the night after he told Bdubs his role.

Bdubs has been voted to be on the block.

False used her ability to slay Pearl! The game ends! Good wins!

Task 1: Find and bring the treasure to the Hermitmaster. First one to bring the treasure to the Hermitmaster, wins.

They were told not to leave their desks but it helps to look around their desks.

They can find the message on the back of their task. "At the top of the highest mountain where Wardens lurk below you will find your next goal" This points them towards Tango's base.

Unfortunately, someone has moved the goal so they had to pause. It was a map that points at a room in the building, specifically the Permitmasters room and the music room labeled with x and z. They found another envelope they had to open at their desk.

The envelope had a letter saying a number on it based on the room they found it in. The Z coordinate said 1800, the X is 1200.

At the cords they found a Scar in a bed. This pointed them towards Scar's presenter room to a large Minecraft bed where there were more envelopes.

They had to go to Jimmy and have him throw popcorn in their mouth to get a prize.

The hint was to bring something that's been watching them the whole time. They had to get the treasure from scar!

Joel brought the treasure to Gem first, winning the task. Cleo and Oli brought Scar physically. Bdubs also eventually figured it out. Joe kept looking around his desk and his tasks for the answer. He thought a keyboard cap that came off might have been the answer.

Skizz is pitching a Minecraft carrot under the idea that it's the foundation in Minecraft for so many things like golden carrots and riding pigs. Grian pointed out the camera that he had to use Minecraft.

Oli made a song in the music room to sell beets but he had himself in Minecraft at the same time.

Joel sold a potato saying that it's Ethos's favorite and it's the most versatile vegetable and Lizzie ate a lot of potatoes while pregnant, and it conducts electricity, and Technoblade's potato wars. He had a couple more reasons I didn't catch. Grian pointed out that his pitch had to use Minecraft.

Joe is selling his potato in a warm mug using the fireplace in the inn in Gem's base.

Cleo is trying to sell a handful of pickled onions in and a potato using a nautilus in Minecraft names "pickles onions and calamari".

No hit, Martyn got the point for the one liner.

Final score: 16-19

Mystery Hermit Recap

Hosted by Zedaph

It's the audience vs Bdubs, Joel, and Skizz

Green Mystery Hermit

Blue Mystery Hermit

Red Mystery Hermit

They put them through a series of 8 tasks to guess who each Hermit is.

Task 1 was trivia.

They all pretty much performed similarly.

After task 1, they had no guesses.

Task 2 is zoom (parkour race)

Red won the first and fourth race and seemed to have the best idea of how jumps work. Blue had the smoothest movements and won the second, third, and fifth race, Green struggled a bit on parkour but won the sixth and seventh race

They are starting to suspect Impulse as Blue

Task 3 is Circuit (Redstone stuff)

They have to make a Redstone dropper spit out exactly 11 items.

Green did quite badly at first, they made a big W out of birch wood. However they did make a working simple circuit. Blue made a circuit really fast and then had to pivot and made a really quick Etho hopper clock but it didn't work. Red tried to make a Etho hopper clock but didn't fully seem to know how and ended up with something that didn't work.

They still really think Blue is Impulse, they suspect one of them may be Pearl.

Task 4 is Abode (build a house together)

Red went straight in with the house but then helped Green build a terrain. Blue did the house details and interior.

Bdubs thinks Blue is Etho. They all seemed to think Green is Grian.

Task 5 is PVP

Melee round is Blue vs Green. Blue kinda destroyed Green.

Ranged round is Red vs Green. They both picked crossbows then switched to bows. Red won.

Mace mound is Red vs Blue. Red seems very familiar with using a mace while Blue struggled. Red won.

Joel thinks Red is Pearl, Jev, or Impulse, Blue is Etho, and Gree is Grian.

Task 6 is Pick (This or That)

Mending vs Infinity: Green went to Mending, the other two went to infinity

Wool vs Concrete: All picked concrete

Vanilla vs Modded: All picked vanilla

Dog vs Cat: Green went dog, the other two went cat

Task 7 is Crafting

There's items falling down a honey wall and they have to craft items.

First item was cake- Red got it first

Second item was crossbow- Red got it first but green was close behind

Third item was lodestone- Red got it first

They are convinced Red is Pearl

Task 8 is Sorted

They have to show how they set up their hotbar out of a set of given items. I know that's Pearl's hot bar for Red, I've seen it often.

Their final guesses were:

Red: Pearl (2 votes) XB (1 vote)

Green: Beef (2 votes) XB (1 vote)

Blue: Etho (3 votes)

Audience final guesses are:
