- Blood on the Clocktower (Online) with The Grimoire Discord ServerLink visible for attendees
This event is a signpost to The Grimoire Discord server where I (Neil - Attikus on Discord) am one of the official Storytellers for the Grimoire community. I run Saturday evening clocktower games every week on a Saturday from 7pm. I also often run the Thursday evening events (from 7pm) and the Friday morning events (from 10am - aimed at Oceania players where it is Friday evening).
Rather than this being an Exeter Board Gamers event - I am using this to signpost you to The Grimoire community which is a very friendly and welcoming Clocktower community which also has US and EU streamteams where you can watch those teams play Clocktower live on Twitch and Youtube.
The link to join the online events will be posted via that discord in the #session-reminders channel.
So hop on over to here: https://discord.gg/yzkwu7KS6t - join the server and follow these instructions:-
Go to the “#Rules” channel and add a react emote to both the Mission Statement and Community Guidelines to show that you have seen and read them.
Go to the #introduce-yourself channel and post a little introduction- its helpful to say how much BOTC experience you have, the fact that you live in the UK, anything else you want to share and you can always say that you were signposted to the server by Attikus (which is the name you will find me as on the Grimoire).Once you have reacted to the rules and posted an introduction – you will get the “Townsfolk” role on the server which will allow you to see the channels.
Go to “Channels and Events” and I suggest you select “Server Event Notifications” and “Community Event Notifications”. If you don’t mind getting notifications about random games – then you can select pickup players EU friendly & pickup players US friendly – but for community and official games you don’t need to give yourself the pickup roles. Select your pronouns (if you want to) and you can add any other channels you may be interested in.
Then you will now be able to see #official-grim-event-signup channel – this is where you will find my Saturday evening event (called "The Grim Goes to Europe (Saturday Edition)" and can click accepted (if you are definitely attending), tentative if you are maybe attending or decline if not attending.
There is also a Thursday evening The Grim Goes to Europe official event at 7pm which I recommend (usually run by Joey, myself. Amber or Lars),
The link to join games is posted into the #session-reminders channel.
For those of you in the Exeter Board Gamers WhatsApp group I will continue to send the game link out to you that way – but it will be at the same time the link is posted for people on The Grimoire and not in advance as I have been doing.
Please do continue to come and play in the Saturday games – but follow the instructions above to sign up via The Grimoire Discord please.
Thank you 😊
Neil / Attikus.**BLOOD ON THE CLOCKTOWER OFFICAL APP INSTRUCTIONS**:
You will need to register for a free account here https://bloodontheclocktower.com/account/login - login to the account and then click on the link posted in the discord channel called #session-remindersIf you are playing with us for the first time I recommend logging in as soon as the link goes out (about 15 mins before the game starts) in order to get your camera and mic working within the BOTC official web app.
Once you join the game - you will need to "Take a seat" - you will see a circle of seats - click one of the circles eg "Seat 4" and you will take that seat.
Press Q - this will open the settings menu. Select the "Chat" tab - and you will see a purple bar at the top of the chat tab options that says "Set Up Microphone and Camera" - click that and hopefully that should automatically set everything up for you.
You can change your name in the game settings (explore the settings by pressing Q - on the "General Tab" - top right - there is the option to change your name and set your pronouns).
At some point your browser will ask you to allow notifications - click "always allow" as the game will want to send you all sorts of notifications during the game eg when someone wants to start a private chat with you or the Storyteller is sending you information during the night phase or asking you to make choices during the night phase.
This is a good video to watch if you are new to the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcXdqWqcELQ - This is a Grimoire video of Trouble Viewing - give it a watch, like and subscribe to the channel!
Other good resources including the official Wiki for the game: https://wiki.bloodontheclocktower.com/Main_Page - this includes tips on how to play (or bluff) every character in the game.

- Later Sunday Games at The Bowling GreenThe Bowling Green, Exeter
Welcome to our regular every now and then get togethers for board games, drinks, and sometimes pizza..
We meet on Sunday afternoons at the Bowling Green which has plenty of tables to settle into a good game and a fun relaxing atmosphere. This event starts slightly later than the other board gamers events at 2 o'clock for people who the slightly later time suits better. Come along and bring anything you want or just join in with what others have brought. We usually start with a quick fun opener to give everyone time to arrive and then settle into some more involved games when everyone's here.
The number of games out there is too long to list so here's a list of some of the regular games where you can tick any you'd like playing this week, and for an idea of what people like you can rate games here.
Hopefully see you there..
If you're coming please RSVP on here so we know rough numbers and what games to bring.
