Fine, fine... it is time.

WHAT?

Secret Hitler, a social deduction game made by the makers of Cards Against Humanity, in which a group of fascists and a group of liberals square off for control of 1930's Germany. But, someone in the group is secretly Hitler. Figure out which of your friends are secretly fascists, which are your allies, and either win the game by gaining liberal control of Germany and/or killing Hitler, or let the fascists win by successfully turning Germany full fascist, or electing Hitler as chancellor.


WHEN?

This Saturday, April 16th, at 8pm Eastern US time. Time can be adjusted depending on when people are available, this post will be changed to reflect what is agreed upon.

What do I need?

You need Tabletop Simulator, which is available on Steam right now on sale for $10. I've also given out free copies before, and I might have a spare copy left, since one of the previous winners never claimed their copy. Find the game at http://store.steampowered.com/app/286160/


Can I shoot Gasbandit?

Sure. I even encourage it, since he's probably Hitler.

You can see the game being played by TB and friends here:




Make sure to post if you will be available to join us, and also make sure you load up tabletop simulator and do the very brief tutorial so you'll know how to interact with the board.

I generally free on Saturday, the time might be early for me though, will see.

not free on saturdays due to pathfinder game.

Won't be there.
Workin'.

Same here, sowwy.

I am gone every Saturday in April doing comedy gigs. But May would be awesome!

I don't have D&D on Fridays anymore, it's on Sunday, but my kids have an eSports league on Friday nights, and I don't know their exact schedule yet, other than that they could be done anytime between 6:30 - 8:30 MST. If you needed to try Friday.

I'm down for whenever.

And just try to shoot me, Schweinhund.

Are you regular Hitler, or Wolfenstein 3D Machineguns-for-arms Hitler?

I have tabletop simulator, and I think I'm free that evening. Tentatively count me in.

Can't wait to see how this turns out. The main reason I stopped trying to do VASSAL nights is because everyone wanted to start at an ungodly hour...

my problem was a late start time and the need to sleep due to work. now i have a weekly pathfinder every saturday so im booked solid.

Yeah, my weekends are in the middle of the week, and I get up at 5am for work for the actual weekends, which is when most people are available. So we ain't doing any midnight start times.

We just need enough interest to run two different groups...

I assume this is still a thing? Because right now my plans for today involve staring out my window wondering if our rain will ever turn to snow.

Sounds like the video they keep on loop down at the local sushi bar.

I'm going to be on vent around 8pm eastern, and we'll see who shows up.

If we're still playing, you'll have to explain how to play as we go. I tried to watch the video, but I just couldn't stand to watch it long enough to know how this damn game is played

Well, that was entertaining. Apparently I AM always hitler.

Alright that was fun. @GasBandit was Hitler every single game...

Ravenpoe shot me in face

It was honestly surprising how quick people became all suspicious of me, and I've never even played this kind of game with you guys before.

My family *never* trusts me in these kinds of games.[DOUBLEPOST=1460859303,1460859266][/DOUBLEPOST]

"its amazing how quickly everyone suspected me. I only immediately shot an innocent person and blatantly lied out of my ass"

It wasn't blatant.

Secret Hitler - Where everythings made up, and only @GasBandit is Hitler.

Crimsonsoul found a version of the mod that scripts the notifications of who is a fascist/hitler so you don't have to do the whole "everybody close your eyes" thing.

But relying on the honor system is the only way we still know we can trust each other after a night of calling each other fascists.

I'm still not sure the damn game is coded right after being assigned hitler 3 for 3

Look, sometimes the universe is trying to tell you something.

Any chance your play session will end up on YouTube?

I was not recording. I had previously had bad luck recording board games. Turns out this one might have been ok to record. ah well.

Dude, they already told you it was @GasBandit every time.

I think the sweet spot for doing board game recordings is...

- lots of dialog between players
- simple rules that don't need to be explained too much
- quick action

So something like Betrayal at House on the Hill is out, but I go see something like Secret Hitler doing well.

So, now that our initial run of tabletop simulator was a success, would we be interested in continuing this (I vote yes) and what games would you want to play on it? I don't want to get anyone's hopes up too much, but there is a full house game on the workshop

This is a pretty fun game

THEY HAVE KING OF TOKYO.

We must play it.

I won't be around this Saturday though. At least, not at Poe times.

Hey, Dave...looks like the 1080 display port thing is finally fixed with the latest driver update. Supposedly it gets you more fps in VR, too.
