real dropout leak:
Dropout (O) -
You have a Townsfolk ability. You are always on the losing team, even if dead, until the final day.
100% legit
So true
the real dropout was the art we left along the way
Sam Reich (Traveller): You have been here the whole time.
Yeah that’s what I was going off of
😳
how are your grades
We’ll have to see
do better than i did i beg
Grades are bad and they suck and we need to abolish them ‼️‼️‼️
hystwall on the grading system ⁉️
You wrote that so quickly
Legendary Luis’s homebrews pull
Nah I wrote it over the course of like a month 2 years ago and edited & uploaded it over the course of like an hour a few days ago
sorry for the lack of tone indicators, I was making a joke, I had assume you already wrote it
-# I'm evil if your evil
(it's a
Poppy Grower game)
What does that have to do with anything
I'm the Vizier 
We need more releases imo
a slight 20 day delay
Ssshhhhhh
Luis how do you respond to the allegations that you regularly show up to BotC sessions shirtless to the dismay of everybody else
and ALSO to the allegations that upon hearing the word "tomb" you start screaming and frothing at the mouth?
The shirts hurt my nipples
No comment
I'll get you a bra girliepop, don't worry
honestly on my list of people to forcefem luis wasn't that high up but i'm not opposed
luis do the release or we'll leak the footage that pyn described
yeah, its really damaging this footage
it'll make you wish you never stole HBL back from me 🤩
I’m very curious to see that list
i cannot post it because it consists of literally every cis man in the entire world and also because it doesn't exist
well get on making it
i refuse to do that because if i had a list of every single cis man by process of elimination you could find every single person worth caring about, and for the sake of safety I can't allow such a thing to exist,
Based
What if 4141 is a code that Luis will drop the next character on April first 2041
Or maybe Luis is secretly a dev for silksong and can’t release the character because he needs to lock in on the game
What about both
We get silksong, hbl, botc expansions, gta vi, all at once
gta village idiot?
end of the week
You mean the 4th of January, right?
iirc only 1 person has gotten that hint lmao
✦ Homebrews By Luis ✦ (What does the raven say?)
so true
big things are coming
Hrm
Okay well in the famous poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe, the eponymous Raven says "Nevermore"
Therefore this hint MUST mean that Luis is nevermore releasing homebrew characters
this is a subtle reference to how Luis is never releasing this update 💀
Exactly!
finally 🙄
nah, big things are coming
big things are WHAT
ayo
just think of the rabbits gerry
Doesn't he kill him after saying that line
I don't know I'm too busy thinking about those cool rabbits
this is a hoax
luis cannot be releasing
caw caw DEEZ NUTS LMAO
which one even is this a hint for 😭
I mean you solved it
😭😭😭?
😭😭😭????
💀
please help
no it's actually Deez Nuts
Oh my bad
"What does the Raven say?"
Stole Moonjay smh

ow
XAOH MENTIONED
✦ Homebrews By Luis ✦ (Buy N Sell)
not so fast
Get your money ready...
It's time to Buy N Sell !!
Buy N Sell, the ninth showcase script by @red badge is here! If you want a script to try out the Wig Snatcher and Rancher, then this'll be it.

<@&1272694218204381244>
Wig Snatcher + Imp feels… dangerous. Double demon with one being good lol
I mean I figured but it still feels insane lol
oh absolutely
that's why i like it
and forces the WS to think a bit more late game
hell naw man not new hbl content 😭😭😭
luis release iacot officially or im stealing autarch back /j
taking over custody again
give me a sec lmao
its fine lmao
I'm holding iacot hostage 🔥
i need reasons to delay releases fr fr fr fr
(I'm literally going to release it tmrw but i need to sleep bc it's the first day of semester 2 so)
im taking abyss back ☺️
wow luis ignoring the most important thing in his future career (free homebrewing for a niche game) to get sleep?
disgusting
ik ik ik
anyways
the more i keep talking the more it'll seem like i can release iacot
SO BYE BYE
fave hbl character ☺️
Ima pull a ben burns and say that my favourite HBL character hasn't been released yet
poopwrite
mine is the xaoh
love the guy
anyone who asks what the xaoh is shan't get a response bc you should know by now
its a hbl staple
Correction: ben burns' favourite HBL character hasn't been released yet
-# (this is just a hint, idek if ben knows that HBL exists)
just open the notion????
yes hello its me benjamin burns my favourite hbl character hasnt been released yet
lets just say
it rhymes
with wow
my favorite character the Drow
Idk why but I get the feeling that whatever Luis is releasing, it’ll probably be overrated
Or at least depending on your point of view
Perish
:)
Also I can’t. That’d be far too obvious
I think it’s that thing Dark mentioned. Something like “Polkaface”, maybe?
(releasing Weird Al)
> washer woman, librarian, & invest/village idiot + saint/klutz, but no grimseer
> no evil poisoning sources, which especially hurts with marionette
> no misreg to eat rancher bullet, good or evil
> cult leader, especially with 1 mechanically confirming character and several hard-to-fake good characters
im sorry but this looks horrid to play as for the evil team if going against any competent good team
invest is particularly strong but i don't think evil is completely crushed here
I personally would disagree with most of those but @red badge can probably explain her choices better than I can lmao
This script was made in a fuckin' fugue state lmao in like, 5 minutes
I don't see what saint/klutz and invest/VI have to do with Grimseers?
Evil has limited poisoning options, but good has limited info options
Rancher doesn't need misreg, dafaque??
Sure but 
WW Lib need Grim peekers tho
yeah no, I don't get why I put those without a Grimseer. Mario can bluff it kinda, Drunk can break it, and Harpy can break it so it's not horrible here, but it certainly was an odd call
If I had to guess my logic, this script was made around the time I was making Church of Thunder (Cough) and that's another script that uses a socially flexible and mobile evil team to have those characters without a Grimseer, so I assumed I could get away with a similar trick here??
But uhh, Harpy and Mario are not Caliban / Shankaar levels of socially flexible and mobile
in TB, if an invest or FT claims you are a minion/demon, you can bluff saint as a convenient last resort, and its able to work because with the existence of grimseers, the possibility of that invest/FT knowing you are the saint is very real, and very troubling (and very brewing). without a grimseer, thats taken away. same applies for VI
because otherwise their victim is just confirmed as evilk and must sit on the bench for the rest of the game as no one would want to talk to a mechanically confirmed evil in the script like this. even in TB, slayers have recluses they can accidentally forcefeed dirt with
people back into saint bluffs on TB?
The character that publicly confirms that a player is evil publicly confirming that a player is evil is a problem?
yes? otherwise you just fall into Town of Salem syndrome and go against the game's original philosophy
if you are outted as evil in a script like this, no one will just talk to you for the rest of the game
and that doesnt sound fun
Do you...play games with the Vizier? Does the Vizier have fun in those games?
yes, because the vizier works as a character who needs to be read by good and needs to play around executing in a pattern that doesnt out the demon
and in the experimental character release for the vizier, its also stated that vizier does run into that problem, but that the inclusion of a vizier in a script automatically self-removes players who wont talk to confirmed evil players
because now thats a dead minion who ate a bullet
or demon
being both dead & outted as evil is not as fun as having an ability that works around being outted as evil & outted as evil
plus, the vizier has the power to control the public space through their interactions in the town square
Right so what’s the solution
add misreg for rancher
Because Recluse does not work here
other option: add characters that can cause erroneous deaths during the day, like yaggababble or mirage
Then the assumption is that you’re killing an evil player or a recluse
the issue isnt bluffability
its about a dead evil player being ostrachized from the game
see slayer on TB
That’s literally a skill issue
If your group are actively just dunking on a friend
Then you aren’t friends
And you really shouldn’t be playing a script that allows for outed evil
that is true, although its still a souring experience to stop having any input in the game whatsoever
A souring experience that is purely social
also if you have played a game with the Goblin you should be well aware that being outed evil does not mean you stop having influence on the game
In full honesty, I think you’re just projecting issues within your own group here
Everyone knowing you're evil and saying "That guy's the Demon" is so hype
and you can be silly with it, mustache twirling
If your group does round robins, you can say you're the Virgin and smile :)
just have fun with yourself, since you dont need to lie anymore
Pause
hauh
- idk what a round robin is
- i can understand that you can still socially interact with the confirmed dead evil player, although imo it feels awkward if said social interaction is detached from the game's rules and mechanical interactions
I don't understand where people come up with the idea that talking to evil players isn't useful
then otherwise you can replicate it in just about any other game
a "round robin" is a tactic of just having everyone claim one at a time
i personally hate them but they exist
depends on the medium of play imo. all of what i said aren't that big of issues if playing in-person, but a majority of play is done online where both the social context and atmosphere are different
I think they're useful when you're trying to solve the end game
agreed i just think its boring
Oh if it's longtext yeah maybe that makes a difference. If it's app/vc/livetext then I'm not sure what you're referring to
(I haven't played app but ik it's close to vc)
yeah most of my experience is through text - shortform and longform
Not everything wrorks in longtext
Idk I think it sets up for a strong climax where everyone feels invested because they're not missing out on info
this is true of several characters/scripts whihc are fine in voice
and its a lot harder to do socialization thru text and also the app when ppl dont do voice + cams
oh i just zone out hard during them. i was already keeping track of claims and if someone wants to change their claim they always could
when in real life or playing with cams, i agree its a lot more interesting talking to an evil player, trying to pry information about of their lips like a crowbar on a metal sheet
if i'm dead it just drags on the day anyways
so its not a script issue as much as a format issue?
kinda
i believe BOTC should be accessible to enter and play with, especially in a much more divided and isolated world
and when i judge or see scripts, i account for it as though playing in text
That’s fair enough but ultimately, it is a game designed for in person/live play
true
something something Yaggababble and Blabbermouth
valid actually
And riot too
although in this case, i do wonder if ur planning to run this script in person or with cams
💀
I generally forget that longtext games exist until it directly profits me, so I was not, in fact, considering them when designing this script
wait, you guys are getting paid?
Afaik no so
im joshing
God places a single penny directly in my mouth every time my artistic endeavors makes someone happy. My lust for financial stability makes my mouth taste of copper, but my hubris determines that it is ultimately worth it.
god i want to eat pennies again so badly but NOOOO the MRI ppl are just "🤓☝️ ermmmm u have the giant fucking metal tube appointment in 4 months and also its unsanitary"
important to note, I remove the penny from my mouth, so that I may use it for commerce
backreading
I understand what Legitch is saying here
in clocktower (really excluding
Vizier (which has ways for it to be not outed evil which should be on script (

...))) there is always a choice to be outed evil, clocktower was designed so that you can almost always push back against the accusations, 
Invest/RK?
Recluse.
FT? Red Herring.
Sage? The other ping. So, I think it's kinda design agnostic to make a character which just outs people as evil with script context.
:(
Recluse +evil tf
ig?
BH should have some good misinfo on script tho
I mean I just strongly dislike it as a character, partly for reasons you described
The only confound is misinfo, and it feels bad with misinfo
Even with RK you have lots of options (on TB)
And that's unlikely to hit
This is like totally nonsensical lmao what
Like I don't think it's a great script, but Ice explained that they didn't really do a second pass on it and Luis just published it, but half of your points are just straight up yappsville
Harpy deaths can happen at night, so Harpy can fake a Rancher kill
Oh Rancher is day death, I forgot. But that makes my Harpy point even stronger lmfao
People who can't read socials

mm actulaly wait I also take back my
,
Harpy can bluff Rancher. I think that night killing
Harpy is 
What's wrong with it
It's not like it's meaningfully quieter
It just makes it legion bluffable
okay but like, it just doesn’t really make sense imo?
Why not
like, it’s kinda supposed to be a loud minion?
1 it's still loud 2 I think characters can be super interesting when the context of a script affects their volume
plays majority longtext
suggests Yagga as a solution
oh wait, true lmfao
I guess it’s weird because it was designed on this script to be like a Virgin (sacrifice for good info)
It’s just that Virgin detects evil by publicly failing & Rancher does not. So if Ramcher is successful, they know an evil payer and have mechanical confirmation to back it up
(I think Hystrex meant BH, but I might be reading him wrong)
Oh lol nvm
I'm yet to play with Rancher personally, but I agree it is very fun. It's loud as hell, but it does it in a way that is very good. I like how destructive and meaty it is when good kills a Minion using it. It has to predict the strength of their allies in a very fun way, and is very win more
holy shit lord of typhon tf "[Good characters are in a line, you are in the middle. -? to +? Outsiders]"
💀
as many cowboys who roam the plains would say
"i guess that isn't what the rancher is actually called?????"
LoT with extra steps 😭
anyways blame luis for having a very bad not good horrendous actually unusable rancher json (literallt onlt the name was wrong) that i used (when i could have easily just used the official released json)
could you also not have just changed the name field to say Rancher
actually a townsfolk that fucks with evil team assignment sounds Cool if done right
i did do that
and look at that luis forcing us AGAIN to make all of hbl for him /j
No Luis this has been fixed
This was the screen cap from a beta Rancher Json that Pyn sent that I thought was funny
Pyn back off the jsons you make give more errors than atoms in the universe
Oh 😭
the official one works properly
and now we're attacking hbl interns wowwwwwww /nsrs
You know it 
(stares in my brother forcing me to download a code editor so i stop bugging him about fixing my jsons)
I GOT THROUGH THIS JSON WITHOUT ANY ERRORS ON MY BEHALF THOUGH
SO THATS AN ACCOMPLISHMENT

shut up about pyn, i wanna know who stripe is
Who is Fang and why do we care about his goo? 
Who is Monsta and why is he lil'?
I literally have no clue who that is

What’s up with dashii and why do we always tell them no?
Who's Al and why did they have "Ikhia" ???
did Al really start ikea?
more importantly
why is “had” in the past tense?
how did Al lose Ikhia?

AYO
Who's I and why he mp
Who’s ??? and why he ???
whos of, why do they have a typhon, and who made them a lord
Who's Luis and why is he a homebrew character

one react and I'll leak luis' current latitude and longitude
So do we get 3 pairs of coordinates now
yea but I might be drunk
i mean i can just tell you he's at 52.846250°N 0.533655°W for free
I think I saw Luis say cheers once and bitchfield is in the UK so maybe 👀
Luis is british to be fair
did he say cheers because he's british or is he british because he said cheers
Btw guys, I'm the Lycanthrope & I chose Luis last night, so he won't be showing up anymore
But I'm also the Goblin, so don't kill me 
Luis is the faux paw it's fine
@jagged frost quick question, would you accept closely-accurate but not exact guesses on the Mirage?
since Mirage only gets yes/no and doesnt know how accurate they are
it's in the wiki
np lmao
im gonna run mirage my next game so im tryna come up with devious but simple 1-sentence rules
incase i feel like its gonna be inplay
...
The funny part is, most of this update was actually ready by then
That’s true
But tbf
It’s good that I’ve held it back by a bit
Bc it means that this update is genuinely the most polished yet
Don’t mistake my silence for laziness 🔥✍️
It's not a mistake if it's true 😔
🙈🙊
Hmmmmmmmmmm
I wish I knew
also where’s Dark for the last minute leak? 
Luis did half the leaking for Dark

It’s a Celeste reference
It’s the scene where Badeline first appears from the mirror
Baddie-line? Sheeeeesh
https://youtu.be/uO0AATXa72U?si=_uSiWKWQVs3nnNMH made me think if this
quick question. if a minstrel procs and the kukalpa player is dead, do they just lose the game since their soul is no longer in another player?
think so lol
To my understanding (Luis can correct) the passing of the Demonhood is a one time event as opposed to a continuous effect
So if the Kukalpa is drunk/poisoned when the initial pass would occur, no pass occurs (or can for the rest of the game), but if the pass has already occured, droison doesn't undo it
It's kind of like (this is a false equivalence, but a good allegory) droison & Scarlet Woman
doesnt sw change their character?
and thats how they become the demon?
Idk I feel like zombuul captures it perfectly
i mean its all kinda weird how reminder tokens work in the context of ability or character swaps
a dead Zombuul whose pit-hagged remains registering as dead whilst being alive, although that kinda makes sense, since it never died
whilst a Vigor whose pit-hagged has their chosen minions lose their ability, and they dont regain it, even when the Vigor returns back into play
this prob should be given a minor clarification jinx, like Fang Gu + Scarlet Woman
(speaking of which, if Fang Gu & Scarlet Woman are jinxed, why not Imp + Scarlet Woman using the same logic if starpass doesnt immediately go to Scarlet)
Leg, that's how that interaction works tho
Provided 5 or more players are alive
Yes it does
wait what
Because the demon is dying, the scarlet woman must become the imp to satisfy its own ability
If only 4 players live and there are 2 minions, either one could become the Imp
5p onwards only the Scarlet Woman can
oh that
i thought u meant in general
i see
so starpass must always go to SW with 5+ players
i swear the almanac doesnt mention this despite how rigid it is for all other TB characters
wait it does nvm
found it
i completely missed it in the summary
it makes mechanical sense, but that kinda sucks honestly
ye
i think if i do run the script, ill do a bootleg rule where a dead Kukalpa's soul remains even if drunk or poisoned
Well
Can't there in theory have 2 imps be made
I don't see how. An alive Minion becomes the Imp, so there's no reason for the Imp to pass to another Minion
also just don't
I agree to this
But I'd argue it should be allowed raw
Imp has to make a minion into the imp
And isn't limited by sw
Sw just has to become imp the same way any other demon killing themselves at night would for them
The game doesn't work simultaneously tho? In general: thinking about spy chef interaction.
I agree with Moll that there is an Imp created by the SW and an Imp created by the Imp, and unless the ST makes those the same Imp they are not
some things fully do happen simultaneously
(but they almost always will make them the same)
It's difficult to explain, but basically, SW is an aura effect and Imp is a trigger
Y'know how each sentence must happen completely for it to occur?
Like a Fang Gu can't pass if they can't die?
So when the imp chooses themselves & dies, that hits the passive aura effect of SW which satisfies the trigger
This would be more obvious if the Imp text said "1 Minion" rather than "a Minion"
Cause the SW aura has to happen; the demon died
So then the Imp's ability sentence gets satisfied
what if the Storyteller's rule is law and says "yeah an imp starpass can not choose the SW without proccing it"
just this once, as a treat
This is correct
As soon as the soul gets passed, that player is now the only demon from now on
noted
"The parade travelled on, with the sun in my eyes, you were gone."
"But I knew even then, In a Crowd of Thousands, I'd find you again."
In a Crowd of Thousands, the tenth showcase script by @quaint sequoia is here for your entertainment, showcasing the Fetch!
In a Crowd of Thousands may at first seem like your average death puzzle, but its many intricacies are only unfolded when the implications are thought of. The script places extreme emphasis on the 'puzzle' aspect of death puzzles, forcing all players to examine the domino effect caused by drunkenness, poisoning and death. Players must read past the baseline truths to understand the true machinations within the game state.
Intermediate. Recommended for players looking for a script where small actions have a heavy impact.
When Playing In a Crowd of Thousands…
Good Players must follow lines of cause & effect to determine their origin, whether that means looking inside their own lines for reason to be drunk or have a kill redirected or examining claims, like a Widow's revelation or the Fetch avoiding death. Disregarding implications of info and who is dying is a fatal mistake.
Evil Players have the ability to entirely disturb good's plans, but must be stealthy as almost all of their actions can be tracked. Even slight mishaps can be tracked and will lead to an eventual loss for evil. Some interactions seen as less viable on other scripts could be the most optimal play, such as a Widow poisoning themself to hide the ping & still give the Pestilence an additional kill.

You can't stop us. WE KNOW THE TRUTH! WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!
We Remember The Baron Incident !!
We Remember The Baron Incident is the eleventh showcase script for Homebrews by Luis, showcasing 2 collaborations with @stray otter: the Haberdasher and the Leftenent!
We Remember The Baron Incident is an expert script where the entire evil team gets to dive into chaos! The good team will be at some of their least trustworthy, and with characters like the Heretic, sometimes knowing the Demon themselves might not be enough to win! Characters can build solid confirmation chains fast, but the Summoner and Kukalpa can maks any player a Demon candidate.
Expert. Recommended for players who want to push themselves.
When Playing We Remember The Baron Incident…
Good players will need to be taken with a pinch of salt and speak in winks. Even characters like the Virgin might be hiding secrets from their allies. They will also need to analyse who dies at night, to find a Summoner hiding in their midst, or who the demon is afraid to kill due to the Haberdasher.
Evil players will need to take advantage of the chaos! Many evil players want to be found and killed, with the Leftenent growing more powerful the more people hunt down their demon!

literally i had 5 minutes of fame and luis has ALREADY moved on
what happened to slow releases so people could care about iacot smh

when you die, that night the ST throws a large, heavy object at you.
The Catch is a townsfolk akin to the banshee, who activates on death. players are informed a catch has died when they hear a loud yelp, a player falling to the floor, or the next day when one player is bleeding from the forehead or otherwise injured
When playing with the Catch
The Catch is incentivised to shield themselves by whatever means possible to ensure they remain conscious and able to inform others of their new injury and continue playing the game
evil players are incentivised to scream loudly and harm themselves at night, or begin days motionless on the floor after they die in order to confirm themselves as the Catch
-# the catch is brought to you by homepoop by Loois, a serious and legitimate homebrew from Sophia
can i houserule that the catch is hit with a baseball bat
yeah
the almanac is unreleased but it says the object just has to be large enough and thrown with enough force to cause physical injury
yeah but i wanna whack em over the head
added to ivory clocktower, thanks!
Gave +1 Thanks to @olive flume (current: #2526 - 1)
LOLLLL
where's the link to that?
omggggg
Important rules question, RAW is the Catch woken before the object is thrown, or is it up to ST discretion?
There's nothing in the ability text that implies waking no
the catch is not woken
Thank you very much
if the catch wakes by other means (i.e. cerenovus madness), the ST may choose to throw the object while the catch is awake
but otherwise no, the catch doesn't wake
what happens if the st misses
or the catch catches it
or dodges
or parries
an object must hit the catch
can it still be held by the st?
I would recommend that only expert storytellers throw their object while the catch is awake
when hitting the catch
i see
can i throw the bmr handbook since according to sailors guide its reserved to only be thrown at the sailor
you just made me look up and then I looked directly into the sun and went blind
I hope you're happy
yep
If a large heavy object is sadly completely unavailable, is it okay to substitute an Argentinian Piledriver?
Lmfao
This is amazing
if you are large and heavy, yes
wait
I misunderstood what the move was
I would argue that the Argentinian pile-driver involves throwing the target at the earth
which due to Newton's third law is the equivalent of throwing the earth at the target
which is large and heavy
Which, if you change your frame of reference, is basically like throwing the Earth at your target
can i throw your mom at the Catch if i can't find something else large & heavy
No, but you can throw Luis
Not that he's large and heavy
Just because it's the right thing to do
NNAAAHHHH
Yahhhhhhh!
you ran out of images :/
Didn’t you say this on new years /j
That’s Luis
No you guys are genuinely getting a character
This sounds familiar
you literally just released one earlier
wait that was loois
wrong guy
no yeah exactly
you'll never mog the catch
nnaaahhhh
Releasing at 11pm GMT
Don't got the budget
that does seem more in line with luis
one million bees (minion)
[Release 1,000,000 bees]

on with the release
sorry
dw it's okay 😭
"Think fast!"
Introducing to you, the...
Catch
[Townsfolk]
If you die, the Storyteller throws a large, heavy object at you.
The Catch dies with a catch.
- If the Catch dies, the Storyteller throws a large, heavy object at them.
- If possible, injury should be caused.
- This happens whether the Catch dies during the day or at night.
How to Run:
If the Catch dies, throw a large, heavy object at them. Cause injury if possible. If you don't have a large, heavy object, then punch, kick, or push over the Catch.
Examples:
- Luis, the Catch, is executed and dies. The Storyteller then throws a washing machine at him, breaking his leg.
- Pynstripe is the Catch. The Xaoh kills them and so, Luis, the Storyteller, throws a frying pan at Pyn. Owie ouchie.
Jinxes:
- Catch and Matsuraid: If the Matsuraid is in play & the Catch is nominated, they use their ability.

LMAO
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO
hbl changed the catch?
from exclusively a nighttime effect to an any time effect
oooohhh
I wonder what extensive playtesting caused this
Counterpoint:
this is lore accurate B)
any form of throw is the equivalent of throwing the planet at the player
the earth is a large, heavy object
so it's valid
TRUE
Damnit Luis I thought you were saving this for the April Fools pack smh
Oh right that exists
Hey I think you put a typo in there
wait was this genuinely in the works before my joke 😭
I can just send half the characters @gilded dagger's brother makes and then release it fr
would have been funny af
wdym
no i literally just heard you guys talk about it and was like "this'll be funny"
and it's also good practice for the new pack 💀
ooo
who up catching
how is this run on online games?
Kick them from the game :real:
k thanks
Gave +1 Thanks to @vestal burrow (current: #1852 - 3)
Seems right more or less
@olive flume if you want to cook smth up be my guest lmao
LMAO
this better be on the script
“Hey guys, I’m the catch, so uhh…”
“What was that? You’re the fetch? Oh great! That’s helpful”
owie ouchie
wondering if its also ok to save throwing the heavy object untill i next meet them as an alternitive option?
I think the character's main strength comes from its confirmability and the ability to injure but only to people you don't like
I do think it should somehow still be loud while in gameplay while still being able to injure
there's not much online that can do that sadly
idea: add reminder token for the catch "Injured". this token is publicly known, but players can apply it to themself (it would be on the town square)
Boffin Catch
atheist catch
just ddos the catch
players bluffing catch can fake connection problems
or destroy their routers
Find a way
- Sophia in response to “It doesn’t translate well to online”
These hands are rated E for everyone 
I admire your dedication to this
😭
Also expect big things soon
The almanac only needs the Pestilence, travellers, and fabled
It might be a Valentine’s Day release?????
I love when people make big announcements only when I cannot see them

Blood on the Clocktower – Homebrews by Luis
Update v2.3.1 – "Fangs & Phantoms"Greetings, storytellers and schemers! The latest update to Homebrews by Luis brings a slew of tweaks, new character designs, and balance adjustments to keep your Blood on the Clocktower games as devious as ever. Let’s dive in!
🔥 New Characters 🔥The Revenant (Demon - Experimental Set) – An undead menace that grows stronger when its minions are executed. The first time a minion dies, you gain an additional ability for the rest of the game! The Howler (Minion - Experimental Set) – A cursed creature that lets out a terrifying wail at night. If you are executed, the first player to vote for you becomes poisoned for the next two nights. The Veilkeeper (Townsfolk - Phantom Set) – Each dawn, you learn if an evil player spoke last during the previous day’s discussion. Beware of manipulative tongues!🛠️ Balance Changes 🛠️
The Hollow (Demon) – Now learns a random Townsfolk role at the start of the game instead of a Minion role, making its misinformation more subtle. The Gravebound (Townsfolk) – No longer learns the role of the most recently executed player, but instead learns if they were good or evil. The False Prophet (Outsider) – Now registers as good for the first two nights before flipping to evil, adding a new layer of deception!📜 New Custom Game Mode: "The Cursed Hour" 📜
A new optional mode where every player begins the game with a secret, randomized curse. These can range from speech restrictions to hidden win conditions! For experienced groups who love a chaotic twist.
who cares, we finally got the cursed hour
what the fuck is the phantom set
"Let’s dive in!"
ofc it is 😭
ais love to Dive and Delve
hello chatgpt
lmao
who up cursing their hour
Lmao i was thinking of commenting that, but i held back
telling chat GPT to make BotC stuff is so weird
it repeats itself a lot
and it rarely actually makes anything new
Yeah that is uhh how AI works, correct
It quite literally can't make anything new
Well, if you fiddled with the output token generation and weighting you could generate something "new" but it would literally be unintelligible gibberish
Like, very unlikely to even use real words
all good ideas for botc characters have been taken, theres nothing new anyways /j
oh yeah that's how it works but it's infinitely more obvious within the confines of clocktower
where like, I already know everything
it passes as intelligent in the real world because I don't know everything, but not in clocktower!
The almanac is finished!!!
Only thing left to do is render the showcase scripts
-# Small note: It unfortunately will not be including the Catch, which will be receiving its own standalone almanac with a stuffed Catch toy that's large, and heavy included.
MASSIVE HUGE NOTE
We are diving into selling cute new products for the Homebrews By Luis company line! Here’s some things you can expect to add to your collection! Let’s dive into your new options, shall we?
- Stop saying PiaNO and start saying PiaYES to the official Homebrews By Luis Piano for The Catch Character! The Piano has a few interesting features like being able to be used with The Catch character and making cool sounds when used! Be sure to add it to your next game!
- The Anvil is a unique and interesting way to spice up your games of Blood on the Clocktower using the Homebrews by Luis line! Use the new smithing function to strike up the flames of excitement in your games!
- Why wouldn’t you want to try delving into the newest content for The Catch character by implementing the Bucket! This addition is slightly unusual, because instead of it being thrown to The Catch character, they kick it instead! Ye-ouch, that’s got to hurt!
what about a grenade
smh gullible that would confirm the catch to others with the shrapnel
do you know nothing abt homebrew balance smh my head /j
i didnt mention pulling the pin
I don’t think a grenade would be “large” enough for the Catch’s ability
Could signify a drunk or poisoned catch though? Just so it isn’t let on from the jump?
Will this update feature the Ragnarok Fabled?
maybe lmao
Luis don’t be afraid j definetly haven’t secretly snuck a link to the secret confidential Luis files into the almanac without you knowing nooooo I definetly haven’t how dare you even suggest such a thing
good
wouldnt want that getting out
The secret files we made detailing Luis’ actions on May 18th 2023? No definitely we would never want that getting out…
bestie dw i was tracking you WAY before then /j
New update! Gear score!
I hope you're all ready to feel the thrill of the loot chase, to get invested in yourself and your progression as a BOTC character.
- each game, the ST will give out a number of gear drops at random to members of the winning team, equal to the number of evil players
- there are 15 gear slots - sword, shield, dagger, bow, helmet, mask, shirt, undershirt, shoulder, gauntlets, trousers, boots, mug, bedroll, and wife.
- gear has a "power score". all gear starts at 0, and players can rip up gear to increase the power of another item of the same type by +1
- at launch, gear score is capped at 20 per piece. however, every two months the official gear score cap will increase by 5. this will encourage players to continue playing and keep the thrill of the loot chase constant!
- when a player would die, their gear score is compared to the gear score of the person who would kill them.
- if it is the same, nothing happens.
- for each gear score the victim has over the killer, there is a 1% chance to resist death.
- for each gear score an evil killer has over the victim, there is a 1% chance to get an additional kill.
- for each gear score an evil player has over a townsfolk, there is a 1% chance they may misregister to them
We at HPL hope that this update will foster a sense of pride and accomplishment in our players. happy looting!
"HPL"
nnaahhhh 💀
homepoop by loois
mfw they think the B in HBL stands for brews
Luis no
people exclude words like that when making acronyms!
that's not how acronyms work!
I mean I guess just calling it HL would be lame
but still
your mum is an abbreviation
sorry that was uncalled for
your mum is probably a very nice woman
omw to make a ticket and get you banned 🔥
-# As a Minion please do not falsely report people, it adds work to the mod team for literally no reason
