Trashdome - Buffy TVS vs Betrayal At House On Hill

Juniper and Space Ghost have convinced me with their flawless logic.

I'm voting Buffy.

If people keep voting against the tv show, I'm going to switch my vote in favor of Buffy just to protest the silliness.

The game isn't unrelated to the TV show. Enjoying the theme is part of the fun in a thematic game.

I call for MetalFace13 versus Aarontu!

Is this an attempt at meta-game-style revenge from the last Trashdome or something?

REJECTED

Buffy punches way above its weight class.

Vote for Buffy The Vampire Slayer

BETRAYAL all the way!

Lots of great gaming memories from it as it was one of my first purchases getting back in to board games. Played it with a lot of non gamers and went over well with everyone, even when the haunt was lame or ended after 2 turns - it played quickly enough that we just fired it up again.

One of the games that lended itself to truly cinematic moments...

(pssst, Barnes' horror cred is on shaky grounds since voting for Touch of Evil. Don't let that sway you, but rather the rough and tumble fun of Betrayal)

I did get to play Buffy once and would love to play it again. If I'd played it as many times as Betrayal, this would be a much tougher vote. But as it is, Betrayal and I have a much longer and vivid history. GO GIANT MUTANT BUGS!

My horror cred went down the tubes when I was a kid and I liked the Hammer movies better than NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, pal.

Aarontu, are we on the same side in this one? If so, I take back all the nasty stuff I was about to say.

Whoa! Did you see that banner ad? "Get the real story between Giles and Faith's hookup in BUFFY #24!"

Seriously, you may as well be into DAYS OF OUR LIVES or SWEET VALLEY HIGH. Even DARK SHADOWS was better than that crap and it was honest-to-crom soap opera.

Is there a scenario where Giles and Faith hook up in the board game? Tee hee, I hope so, that Giles is so dreamy!

No way Giles and Faith would EVER hook up. If that's the shit going down in the comics, I'm calling sheananigans.


I've always wanted to actually call Shenanigans.


"Hello, this is Shenanigan's, home of the $17.95 Surf 'n Turf Special. This is Cheryl, how can I help you?"

Oh, and


VOTE: BUFFY



Ya buncha shitheads.

In a couple of years y'all are going to be trying to tell us that the TWILIGHT board game is "actually pretty good".

Faith and Giles do hook up in the comics, but it's only in a professional way. Or, at least that's the case in the 22 or 23 magazines I've read so far.

Some of the comics are, btw., quite good with excellent Buffy-dialogue and story lines.

Giles and Faith in no way "hook up." They team up. They work together to help errant slayers.

Don't try it, buddy. The banner ad clearly said they "hook up". And I bet in your mind, while you're playing the game, they "hook up".

The Buffy comics are pretty good. And they're less soap opera-y than the show.

That's right, I forgot your favorite game is Corn Hole 2. How's the Civony/Evony game going for you? Is your "queen" still waiting for you?
