Board Game Club airing on Friday this week!
🕑 Added 2023-08-15 15:31:42 +0000 UTCHappy Tuesday everyone!
As you may know, tonight's episode of Board Game Club was due to feature members of the NRB crew playing K2, in which players race to the top of the famous mountain. Sadly, a news story has broken in the past few days about a man who recently died on K2 in real life. Several of you have been in touch about this, given the content of tonight's planned episode.
Out of respect for those involved, we have decided to postpone the release of this episode. Instead, we will release a different episode this week, in which we will be playing Smash Up - but it's going to take us a little while longer to get that episode edited and ready for release, because we hadn't planned on needing it to be ready yet! It will therefore be going live on YouTube on Friday, with the uncut version for Patreon subscribers available at the same time.
Thank you for understanding, and we'll see you on Friday!

Respect to NRB for the K2 call. Also Smash-up is one of my favorites.
You can make a statement as simple as "we are aware of the allegations and take them seriously and are actively looking into it" and that in no way triggers any legal recourse. And this "other channel" you speak of, was that person already on their second chance because they've done exactly this before? Pretending this is not going on and staying quiet just makes Carly claim they care more about protecting Adam than safety of women seem legit. They need to say something, even if it's as simple as I wrote above.

I watched another channel remove a cast member who was accused, and make an instant statement. Turns out the accusations were false. There are legal reasons to remain silent while investigating. As NRB took action before this was even known, I'm willing to give benefit of the doubt and wait for a statement
It’s tough, because I love supporting a lot of the people that appear on the channel. But Adam needs to take accountability and publicly acknowledge and address some things

Seconded

As a patreon supporter, I am really expecting NRB to make a public and transparent statement about the news, and the rumours about Adam coming out. I will want to hear soon how NRB will be making their channel and studio safe for the regular cast members, and guests before I need to evaluate whether I am comfortable financially supporting the channel.

Respect the decision, take it easy so not to burn yourselves out with the fast editing though.

It feels like Laurie has been choosing what games to play especially more that smash up is coming up. That's his number one from his last top ten. Very refreshing from Adam's social deduction /party games. Not saying I don't enjoy them but yeah. :)

I didn’t think I could respect you all more!

Classy move. Letting your fans know as well, solid.

Entirely understandable.

Well, as far as reasons for a delay goes: an actual death is certainly one of the better. Take y'all's time, we're here for the long-haul!

Thanks for the update. Respect the decision. May want to utilize the community tab on YT and other social media accounts to convey this to non-patreons wondering where the video is.
