He actually said 22 wins out of 50 weeks. He hasn't won 21 weeks.....I'm hoping for a wrestling twist when he thinks he did it but actually failed long ago. He's lost more than 50 games.
36:30 Sully trying to make fun of how absurd and out-there everyone else's connections in this game are like "SECRET dinosaurs in SECRET ice cubes" only for Carley to right after score 3 points with the same connection he said as a joke. This is hysterical
Oh GOD the 'secret wineglasses, with secret dinosaurs in secret ice cubes' screaming from Sullivan beeing so done with this round and Adam and Carley being the ones who picked that specific card and made a special connection out of it. That was amazing!
Stella: A contemplative game about the significance of imaginary artwork and likeminded thinking. NRB: Hooting, hollering and teasing people. Spoilers: Not only a beautiful display of the friendship between Sully and Adam, but Sully may have saved Adam from having to play Monopoly.
36:30 Sully mocking the cards only for them to actually be Carley's genuine answer is absolutely hilarious. I laughed so hard I had to pause to cough 😆😆😆😆😆
"I've not seen anyone just so wholeheartedly reject the concept of a game before, as much as you Tilly" Adam says, about the person who, at this point, is in second place
To be fair. For something to be a surprise something has to be unknown. And if one entity knows it (or has known it) and another doesn't, then it could be called secret. So while a surprise isn't the same as a secret, it does have a lateral connection to secrecy and secrets.
Man these gameplays are just getting better and better. I’ve had to pause the video after laughing so hard at Sully proudly pointing out a card without secrets to show how silly it is, only for Carley to immediately pick it and connect with Adam, that I was crying and wheezing. I need a few minutes to catch my breath.
38:07 To be fair to you, Dom, that snail in the garden one was my first choice. I woulda gone with 'one snail has a secret the other snail needs to hear', but that was my first one
I don’t think that’s happening, I’m familiar with Decrypto, short-ish game with 2 teams and likely will play at least twice…Adam would have to choke for this to come to the final games
@@11th-lemon ah, but it's beeen proven that every house rule you apply to monopoly makes it worse for the players, and I doubt this would be any different
Pretty sure there have been at least a few nods towards Laurie and Adam as well... I can't get enough of the chaos between these five, it's becoming an issue
I love how these art interpretation games always get you guys the most worked up. I feel like that's a sign of you lot knowing each other well or I could just be mad.
After seeing Mysterium, I kinda expected this semi co-op game to go wrong at some point and it did, hilariously so! Laurie with the amazing first round, I rooted for you!
2:00 That's it right there. That's all I wanted as soon as I saw the title. Thanks for getting it out of the way so I can enjoy the rest of the video properly, Sullivan 😂 *Marlon Brando Impression Intensifies
How have I not found this channel sooner. Really enjoy the content guys. Congratulations on the win Adam. Will proceed to binge watch previous episodes.
When Adam loses his goal and has to play all those wonderful monopoly games, we need to make sure that we have the number one monopoly player there. That’s right. We need to get Denise salsado to fly out and get on board.
Awesome game! I played along with it as well, noting my guesses for each stage, and my notes for notable misses and unpopular guesses. 1. Birthday (4): OOOXO OOXOO OXXOO B4 (bottom row 4th card) - 2 people only hardly reflects a birthday M3 - Same reason as given: I thought it was a metaphor for birth 2. Attention (8): OOXXO XOXOX OXXXO T1 - I'm sad I missed this B1 - This didn't seem like attention to me. At the party, attention is scattered all over B2 - You need attention to drive a plane B3 - The figure is drawing the attention of the 3 people who are sewing T3 - You need attention to pull out the sword in the stone B4 - The 2 masked people seemed like they were drawing attention by presenting themselves with that pose 3. Secret (7): OXXOO OOXOO XXOXX M2 - Not familiar with Secret Garden B2 - 2 people (well, creatures) together, in the air, must be far away from everyone else, must be a secret time 4. Paris (4): OOXOX OOXOO XOOOO My guesses are bad because I'm unfamiliar with Paris TT T3 - I only chose this because it showed a heart, and Paris is the city of love T5 - The stone reminded me of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. However, I now realise it is in Italy, not Paris or France 🤦♂ (I did not allow myself to google during the game) M3 - All the cooking stuff, could be for making bread B1 - Looks like a bar, generic crowded spot in a populated city I would like someone to help me explain the big misses, in particular: T4, T2, M2, B3 Looking forward to seeing Decrypto next week! It's my favourite game, and the first video I watched on the channel.
Tilly has that kind of humour and personality I don't expect and I absolutely love and crack every time she opens her mouth. U are the boss tho Dom we all kno that.
Tilly saying if you don't get it right, you'll be cast out into the street. My immediate thought was of course, and you'll have your wrapped birthday gift when you get there.
1 more game, maybe 2 more before the end of the year, this is really coming down to the wire! I'm gonna love it when they play monopoly though! i'm quite interested to see how this plays out and I love watching you guys! Joined up with drunk battleship and I'm sticking with it!
Adam's a storyteller, it's gotta do down to the last game of the year, and the other participants will be Dom, Brooke, Tilly, Rosie, and Jon. Really raise the stakes and put himself as the underdog despite being Adam, the win will be all the more worth it with some *drama*!
Come on Adam, you know what to do. You HAVE to play Monopoly. You set the story up at the beginning of the year, and, like in all your fantasy bookings, you have to see it through. Just like Pacitti always ends up doing Hell in a Smell over on Cultaholic each year, you must let kayfabe reign.
This seems like a fun game to play with the family. Fun episode as always. Having recently played Cyclades and thoroughly enjoying the tension and conflict I think it would be an amazing game for you to play on the channel. Just think of Laurie and Dom trying to outbid each other for Ares or Poseidons affection while Sully and Adam laugh about buying beardy boys from Athena. A bit more complex than a lot of the games you play in this series but could be ridiculously good content.
If it helps Sully my whole family forgot my birthday when I was 17. Said it to my mam on the phone when I was coming home from school. She made a joke about it rushed out and bought a birthday flan like in friends in that makes it better? Point is ..... we love you Sully
So my brother is a year and two days older than me. My mom and step dad celebrated his 15th birthday with him. The next day they left for a weekend getaway. I might have gotten a Happy Birthday call but I dont remember. I feel for you Sully.
I was thinking “secret” for the woman ostensibly on the moon as well, but for a different reason: the kimono, sweeping, and bonsai tree gave me Zen vibes, and for some reason my mind associates meditation, monks, and enlightenment with secrets.
I had a reverse situation to Sullivan, twelve years ago, where I was having such a bad day, I forgot it was my birthday, up until 5pm, when I got a call from my mum wishing me a happy birthday.

*"Losing is one thing. Losing to Adam is worse"*
- Carley, 2022
this aged like milk...
Just like Sully! Jk ;)
@@nouration9685 This is so true :D :D :D
a game about human connection? surely this will be a very positive game with no conflict
Definitely, without a doubt.
It looks lovely. I hope Laurie slaps someone.
*_Oh_*_ if only_
Best timeline: Adam doesn’t get to 22 wins by the end of the year but is given one last chance…by playing Diplomacy with Dom.
For the content 🙏
He can't possibly win a game of diplomacy, so he will both play diplomacy with Dom and he will play 5 consecutive rounds of monopoly
That would be phenomenal
He actually said 22 wins out of 50 weeks. He hasn't won 21 weeks.....I'm hoping for a wrestling twist when he thinks he did it but actually failed long ago. He's lost more than 50 games.
@@stingersplash i mean yeah but cut the man some slack mate

Easily the best moment in the episode.
Especially the camera angle as Sully says it with the look on Adam's face.
I think the spirit of Jon Gracey has taken over Sully with the way he melted down during the “secret” round 😂
It was very funny and I completely agreed with him. That was the most outrageous connection made all game.
Sully's birthday story 😭😭😭 With trauma like that, no wonder he became an actor! 🤣
I suddenly understand why he chases bits so hard: he wants to make everyone like him so no one will forget about him again 😥
Love Sully's call back to Cheese thief with "Cheese Blindness" when mocking Tilly.
I loved that! Forgot which episode though :(
@@Jellybeansatduskthe Cheese Thief episode :)
I love how they went for "the dinosaurs are the secret ingredient" but not "wine makes you spill your secrets"
Oh GOD the 'secret wineglasses, with secret dinosaurs in secret ice cubes' screaming from Sullivan beeing so done with this round and Adam and Carley being the ones who picked that specific card and made a special connection out of it. That was amazing!
The Thing, Nemesis, Dune, any betrayer/social deduction game: Calm, relaxed atmosphere
Stella, Monsdrawsity, Skull, any abstract game: *Continuous screaming and swearing*
Laurie’s “Is his name Lenny” has to be the funniest literary reference I have heard all day
Underrated
What's your average for literary references per day?
Then again, this being the one and only I suppose does work.
I love that Carley is back for more episodes lately, much appreciated seeing her appear more often.
Both of her.
Same with Tilli!
Stella: A contemplative game about the significance of imaginary artwork and likeminded thinking.
NRB: Hooting, hollering and teasing people.
Spoilers:
Not only a beautiful display of the friendship between Sully and Adam, but Sully may have saved Adam from having to play Monopoly.
While looking up this game I read a review which said 'not a game that lends itself go hooting and hollering' and then read this comment 🤣
Spoiler
He still had to play a game
36:30 Sully mocking the cards only for them to actually be Carley's genuine answer is absolutely hilarious. I laughed so hard I had to pause to cough 😆😆😆😆😆
"I've not seen anyone just so wholeheartedly reject the concept of a game before, as much as you Tilly"
Adam says, about the person who, at this point, is in second place
the nerve of Dom, trying to kiss Sully's boyfriend right in front of him!
It is really wonderful the way Carley tries to say the word "secret" as if it means "surprise".
In all fairness, a surprise is just a recently revealed secret 💁♀️
To be fair. For something to be a surprise something has to be unknown. And if one entity knows it (or has known it) and another doesn't, then it could be called secret. So while a surprise isn't the same as a secret, it does have a lateral connection to secrecy and secrets.
For the sake of being fair, secret is almost a synonym for mystery
Love Dom and Tilly’s interactions. Great episode
Laurie's minion impression gave me life and I can't explain why.

@@metallsnubben Haahahahaha, yes. Also Tomska has a technically better w/l than adam. 20/77 vs 1/4.
@@JohnBLZ she played the role of forensic scientist in Deception
So you said there was a total of 79 games, but Adam's total only adds up to 77. What were the two games that he wasn't in?
Imagine if Jon were in this game, the unravel would be legendary
Carleys “it was fucken’ birth” made me laugh so much 😂
Everyone looks so dapper and lovely here! And Laurie looks like he's going to catch many fish on the boat!
The Sully cutaway at 41:20 had me laughing out loud in the middle of the night. That was a beautiful edit. I got real vibes of The Fast Show from it.
Man these gameplays are just getting better and better. I’ve had to pause the video after laughing so hard at Sully proudly pointing out a card without secrets to show how silly it is, only for Carley to immediately pick it and connect with Adam, that I was crying and wheezing.

Had never realized it before, but Sully and Dom have such amazing Doctor and Master energy.
It’s the BEST TIME OF THE WEEK!!! ITS BOARD GAME CLUB!!!
Ever since the Call of Cthulhu episode I've learned to love Dom more and more. I think it might make him to powerful to know that.
If you enjoy that, you should listen to his podcast "the apocalypse players"
This seems like a lovely mix between the various connections of Codenames with the wonderful art interpretation of dixit
Laurie, Dom, Sully, Carley, Brooke, Tilly... ANYBODY beat Adam next week so he HAS TO PLAY Monopoly! it will be the GREATEST EPISODE EVER!
I don’t think that’s happening, I’m familiar with Decrypto, short-ish game with 2 teams and likely will play at least twice…Adam would have to choke for this to come to the final games
@@scorchingshark6424 I'm screenshotting this comment for future purposes
@@11th-lemon i wouldn't mind if it was a special episode of house rules
@@11th-lemon ah, but it's beeen proven that every house rule you apply to monopoly makes it worse for the players, and I doubt this would be any different
@@11th-lemon it's not just "one game of Monopoly" though. I accept that one will be classic, one will be house rules, etc.
So far it looks like we have
Brooke x Sully x Adam x Dom
How deep does the NRB polycule go?
Pretty sure there have been at least a few nods towards Laurie and Adam as well... I can't get enough of the chaos between these five, it's becoming an issue
I could see my living my life as a minor evil henchman if Dom was my evil mastermind
I love how these art interpretation games always get you guys the most worked up. I feel like that's a sign of you lot knowing each other well or I could just be mad.
Sully's little smile after yelling Stella really did it for me
The way Tilly looks at the camera @ 19:43 reminds me of the movie Smile.
After seeing Mysterium, I kinda expected this semi co-op game to go wrong at some point and it did, hilariously so! Laurie with the amazing first round, I rooted for you!
Loved everything about this one! Especially the amount of Teri cameos.

*Marlon Brando Impression Intensifies
“Was his name Lenny?” was the best line that everyone ignored. Forget board games, I’m here for the Steinbeck punchlines.
Adam's expression after Sully made fun of the secret dinos was hilarious. Imagine if Carley hadn't picked it.
I love watching all of your old videos so i can see more of dom on the regular
God I love Stella. Found it on Board Game Arena and then went out and bought it, it's so good.
This video had definitely big impact on helping me get into Board games!! Thank you guys!!
How have I not found this channel sooner. Really enjoy the content guys. Congratulations on the win Adam. Will proceed to binge watch previous episodes.
The descent into mania in this one is just a+ interneting.
Tilly is such a wonderful player. I hope she wins everything she ever participates in.

They've nailed Paris in that last round.
Rest of France is pretty nice but Paris is a different beast
favourite sully content, because it's the one where he is actually confused, as opposed to acting confused, even though he is awesome in those too.

Ok we all knew about the Adam Brooke Sully love triangle but when the hell did Dom get involved???? Is it a love square now?
@@TheLastSane1 yes
25:22 - Welp I think we've found our next Channel Milestone Video
I was expecting a Stanley Kowalski impression, but to have Sully do the Ned Flanders version in the intro was delightfully unexpected!
Best Board Game Club yet! You guys really showed how much fun this simple game can be.
Wow, the Watership Down reference out of nowhere. Nice pull Sully.
RIP, Tilly's arid eyes.
Tilly has that kind of humour and personality I don't expect and I absolutely love and crack every time she opens her mouth. U are the boss tho Dom we all kno that.
Obviously filmed before the Candyland video. Adam and Sully died to amuse me.😔
Happy birthday, Sully!

Rooting for Adam has finally paid up
Tilly and Sullivan are so funny together
Wake up honey, new board game club video dropped
The adam and sully love story is amazing
This might be my favorite NRB video
comment for Sullivan Brown: Secret Garden the Musical is a masterpiece of music. you wouldn't understand.
I was thinking “secret” for the woman ostensibly on the moon as well, but for a different reason: the kimono, sweeping, and bonsai tree gave me Zen vibes, and for some reason my mind associates meditation, monks, and enlightenment with secrets.
I feel like the most villanous characters in No Rolls Barred played this game... about human connection. 😂
Great game, great episode!
Oh don't worry, I think you got _more_ fans in France by speaking of Paris like that
A lot of us _hate_ it
Well, there goes my next 50m watching this. Time well spent.
Same, and I should be studying for a final.
I was genuinely SO tense near the end there, holy shit what a game!
Sully may have come in last place, but holy shit, Paris can never show it's face anywhere near BCG again.
47:02 holy shit this outburst is amazing
I have never been so early to the comment section haha. Truly enjoy all of your videos! Keep it up!
The reaction of British people to Paris is so different from what most Americans would have said
I'm with Dom on the Birthday card. I picked that one.
Omg we saw Terry's right hand!
Terri appears quite a bit in the Connect 4 House Rules, FYI. though it makes sense, Terri is over af due to House Rules, she carries that series!
Adam is way too close! They can't let this happen!
40:50 minutes to hear them slate Paris😂
Also: 5:55 for Sully’s b-day story💔
Favourite time of the week really gutted I can’t make the meet & greet but hope you do the same next year,you guys do a brilliant job 🤗
I love how Laurie says ¨Darkest Timeline¨
