Transcript 59:32

hello I'm Adam from no rolls bar and I'm Sullivan from Nero's Bar and welcome to House Rules the show where we take a classic game and pull the ladder out from underneath it this time around we are playing Sullivan's favorite game Snakes and Ladders it's a great game it's just well designed you got two things Snakes and Ladders well not this time around what because this time around on house rules because we we modulate we we mess with we break classic games in order to make them silly and the way we've decided to make snakes and ladders silly is that there are no ladders only snakes oh dear laughs in this game every time you see a ladder that is not a ladder that is an extra snake so if we were to roll and get here that normally in Snakes and Ladders oh you do that and isn't that exciting no not in this game instead that does nothing but if you land here oh you found a snake all the way back down you go it's possible this game might last forever and because of that we've decided to add one more little juicy juicy little tidbit on top one little extra rule is that every time we would go down a snake we have to take a shot hooray hooray we're gonna use the Blue Curacao that we use for our battle Shots

video look the battle Shots video and those shots are being poured and administered To Us by Terry it's becoming less of a wave and more of a just slowly tendrils creeping down the lens and into your front room yeah this is going to be horrible I think yeah it's going to take a long long time long long time because we're especially going to be playing by the classic rules I I have some classic rules on a piece of paper here and these are the the classic rules first of all before you can place your token on the board you must first throw a six that's ridiculous that's so stupid that's what it says so we have to do it also you have to land exactly on a hundred always good that if you're here and you roll a five you go one two three four five great which means if you're here in Roll of four one two three and there you go good it's lovely this is great it's lovely it's good we might modulate these rules depending on if we're having any fun but uh we'll start as we mean to go on you are blue of course because of Chelsea and I am red because of Manchester City Football Club very good very good I did it I did it I had to be one of those and look look how look how look how red it is first of all uh Sullivan because Manchester city is a better football team I'll be going first oh okay is that you agree well it's interesting because

Chelsea have won two champions leagues in the city of one zero you could make that up and no one would know I think that's true that is true no no there's no way of checkings right no there is no way of Jackson they burn the records every season so according to the rules you can uh throw the dice three times to try and get six on your first turn so let's let's give it a go okay shall we here we go all right here we go that's fine that's a five again three and that's a one so nothing for me on my first turn so great stuff let's have a little look at this there we go oh and that's awesome okay great yeah all right so we haven't started yeah we have to roll a six to start so we'll game we'll go again look at that so I am now on the board hooray me so is that your turn that's my turn yeah good good good here we go uh that is oh it's oh it's fine okay so I'll start okay what do you mean do I not do three right that you did on your first turn Sullivan oh but now it's not now it's it's just one okay yeah so here I go off into the distance one great steaming ahead it's going crazy here I'm not even on the board yet all right good stuff here we go here we go good one two three four five six I'm Stephen I have to go ahead again let me just check the official yeah check the official rules yeah if you roll a six

during the game you can roll the die again brilliant absolutely let's go again great so far very good another six two three four five oh and back down you go and look at that hubris isn't it hubris the uh the the hubris Amanda see I've done a good tactic here staying off the ball stay off the board so you don't have to don't have to drink at all Terry may I the first shot of the game this lovely Blue Curacao I hope it's kept cheers to you yeah it has been in the studio for literal months smells strange how does that taste it settled nicely it's a fine vintage that's they're always the best when you open booze and then leave it yeah open it first then you have you're leaving that's what they do with a good wine oh we thought oh no sorry again absolutely five one two three four now that is a ladder and I would climb that lad all the way to number 31. I'd be doing so well but unfortunately it's only snakes in this game this ladder is made of snakes hey I'm I'm nine percent of the way there fantastic oh good I'm zero yes you are and I still will be imagine we got the whole game and I never get on the board it's like candy that all over again here we go two one

two very good lovely staff here we are four that's a four this is a bad rule oh one two three four oh it's very close yeah very close too very good here I go again all right one two three four bottom of a snake good stuff good stuff that was absolutely fine of course that's a one so one that's nothing very good in this game yeah absolutely one two three four five six go again one two lovely stuff beautiful here we go here we go I want to play the game why won't the game let you play Let me play look at me just sitting out here probably I have to reread this before you can place your token on the board you must first throw a six you can agree to take three throws in the first round and then so that's yeah that's it that's it okay great it might go is it yeah yeah it's your game oh you're fine very nice all right one two three four five I'm steaming steaming ahead here we go that's a two that's not gonna do it here we are six don't mind if I do one two three four five

that's gonna be lovely oh here we go here we go it's already ready you've already spilled and he's already spilled Terry's drunk yeah one step one for us one for Terry yeah of course here we go yummy yummy yummy in my tummy oh drink responsibly by the way we should say that at the top make sure if you are going to play this version of the game do it with a Terry around yeah yeah you always have to have a certified Terry around yes have you taken your Terry certification all right here it is on screen yeah here we are yeah I Go Again absolutely why not oh yeah one uh one there we go there we go there we go here we go get on the board at some point let's be nice nice for the video wouldn't it one two three four five six there we go again there we go bottom of a ladder um you would have easily won the game before I'd even gone to the board and been playing normal Snakes and Ladders so here we go three one two five down

it really won't we need another shot I'm afraid yeah sorry Terry we need a shot also could you put an hour on a time limit because this is we've got too much booze to be like oh we'll get through the booze and end the episode we can't guarantee to finish this game because we might die so instead we'll play for an hour and see if who's winning and at the moment by default me well currently you're winning and I'm not playing well that's all about to change yeah absolutely here we go

one two three four five six one two three four there you go lovely stuff all right if I can play the game here we are it's a one this is insane this is insane

I'm sorry I'm sorry viewers I'm sorry I don't mean to do this I shouldn't have just done that stupid isn't it stupid not to do that one two three four five six okay yeah they're all one two three four five six hours this is a torture this is a horrible nightmare would you rather be you would you rather be me I'd rather be you're having the worst you're still on number nine thanks Terry don't worry I guess it go again though I get to go again of course one one okay ten percent of the way there here we go that's one Jesus Christ Sullivan please Jesus Christ two one two your turn here we are here we go and this is a four I can't you roll this I don't know three one two three okay that's fine where is it there we go uh here we are that's five that's a five four one two three four this is horrible

don't do this don't do it don't do it at home don't do it no don't not even the rock proper rules don't do this I see you know I've heard some people say that they you know play Candy Land the way that we did and that I just find insane it doesn't do it don't do its bad if could there not be a more black and white cautionary tale this is a bad version of this bad game you go for it like it's like we've sponsored someone to like run the Olympics yeah but they've got broken legs and all we've done here is just take their shoes

one two three four five six great decision wow you were in the world prints are there haven't you uh you've escaped it I have one two three four it can't go wrong it can't go wrong it can't go wrong it won't go wrong what oh tortoise

also the tortoise and the hair Parable is not a good Parable because the parable of the torts and the hair right is supposed to be slow and steady wins the race yeah whereas the parable of thoughts and the hair is don't fall asleep and then have a sleep yeah absolutely oh stupid stupid stupid two one two one there you go little setbacks little setback just a little setback it's not too bad of course sorry I I just rolled the dice before you took your shot I'll let you have yourself don't rush this I don't want to rush it foreign

ASMR stands for Adam one two I'll do it there he goes you haven't even gone down many snakes I'm starting to feel it you don't feel it what's the percentage on the Curacao that we're drinking today Terry you know that's not bad that's not bad it's not bad yeah yeah I've had five six yeah I've only had two so I'm okay at the moment yeah you're Lucid yeah and you know what so am I hahaha usually I'm the drunk one by this point oh one two three four easy peasy lovely stuff here we are that's a one of course it's like in like an engine builder you're the one who's taking the time to really Shore up your engine bay area yeah yeah yeah yeah I'm really showing up my position and you know I don't want to rush into it six one two three four five six good very good yeah yeah of course oh six again yeah

sorry it's all right all right don't worry I get to go again though here we go here we go that's a one okay okay Welcome to My Life uh that's a five okay that's a bit better one two three four five oh close close close to a ladders yeah would have been bad two one two oh hello you're getting a bit closer aren't you oh dearie doctors oh oh it says how long have we been playing for Terry okay don't do this don't do this please don't do it six very good one two three four five six and that's a five one two three four you're in a safe run to worry about anything I'm fine three one two three hold it hold it there we go there we go five one two three four five excellent oh smooth sailing this one two yep hopped over it three three one two three we narrowly avoided the ladder yeah it would have

been devastating that ladder Showmanship from the boy two one two they're showing you how it's done now this has been to Snakes and Ladders one two three four very good the cobwebs have been truly shaking off one two this is oh it's beautiful the Beast is loose one two three four five six oh my God you're gonna overtake me I'm gonna overtake you no don't do it five one two three four five hey I need somebody to pick up my game I need to pick up my game someone fell asleep someone didn't read the favor very good very good very good here we are five one two three four five okay don't worry I'm catching up one two three four very good very good here we are five again oh one two three four five oh Sullivan he's found his feet he's found his confidence this is it one two three oh five one two three four you can't be happy with that yeah that's a tactical error

Candyland at least when you're playing the rules properly like it's gonna end and it's gonna end fairly quick yeah all of the cards have been shuffled all the moves have been programmed into the deck you were just going for it and you'll be done in 15 minutes yeah this could never end yeah with the rule that you have to finish on 100 it could literally never end yeah anyway don't worry about me I'm over halfway so I'm gonna be absolutely fine one two three four yeah absolutely okay great yeah that's a three yeah so that's one two three in fact you know I'm gonna go so far as to say that I will never die you will never die interesting and see why that is a six so maybe you're right one two three four five oh well

why do they call it Shoots and Ladders we don't know two three four five so Snakes and Ladders is based on an Indian game it's like it's several hundred years old and I think the snakes part of it is to do with that lineage I'm not entirely sure leave it leave us a note in the comment if you know that lineage of snakes and that is super well but Americans are just like that doesn't make any sense shoots shoots we don't want these snakes we want good old American shoots I love how so meant so much of the American dialect is just like a child learning English yeah it's like aluminum like ours is aluminum right and like the Americans is like aluminum yes that sounds like a five-year-old trying to say alumin yeah I mean we can't talk you know like we call it an elevator because it elevates you from the ground to the Sky Lift lift is over Jeff or lift give us a lift I press the button lifters lifters please just in the air please with my mum my mum is in San Francisco right and she story time story time foreign

oh I don't like that oh I don't like that I don't like that I was heating up seven one two three four five six not too bad Tesla shot still bad but like you're bad it's only a little snake

that's a horrible noise wasn't it there we go let's just work out yeah because you are almost about to get into the final row yeah and win this whole game and put me out of my misery one two three yeah five that's bad seven that's bad eight nine ten eleven that's bad if you roll double six which you've done twice this game you will instantly win any other odd number you apart from nine how can one would you come on yeah four one two three Sullivan you are skating oh it's horrible this it's it's so tense at the top 11 that's a huge roll two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven very good who is catching up a one you can't roll yeah one two three is bad seven is bad eight exactly and you win yeah but nine is also bad it's not nine is super bad because you will double back on this snake hand so I go that's really bad because these are all Snake Eyes

give me my blue gold it's all sticky everything's sticky now Snake Eyes to win Sullivan here we go I didn't get it the first time I'll get it a second we've made two dice makes this so much harder yeah so much harder so much harder because the end game like getting up the board yeah fine but the end game is so much harder six one two three four five Sullivan come on nine one two three four five six seven

so that's eight right yeah no but I don't want to I want to I love you I'm the biggest ladder on the ball no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no why do ladders give me my thing quite a tactical error I would say from that over there it's um not the best choice at this point I would say Sweet Baby James now I need a four a five and I'm fat and maybe loads and I'm but I can't bother to work that out I need a four it's an eight hey you got some fours four didn't know I don't know I was nervous oh no I rolled a double thank you Terry
