RogueScholarBlue i will like your comment good sir but not because i think you should have her babies but because i would like to have her babies and you simply commented that before i did.
This was the first ever TableTop episode I watched. I fell involve with this adorable and yet not so complicated game and I bought it. Now almost one year later I have started to play more advanced board games and I have gotten many new friends thanks to board games and role playing games. This is all because of Geek & Sundry and I am so grateful for every TableTop episode I watched so far. Thanks for changing my life and for you still making awesome videos!!
Taylor Adams So, the top comment on the video right now is a comment advertising the video on google plus. Seems unnecessary. Love the video, but the new comment system does very weird things.
Okay, here's what cracked me up. First off **SPOILER**, don't read if you don't want to know how the game progresses. So, at 14:04, Wil tries to help out Harley with a bit of strategy on where to place his yellow tile if he's trying to get a certain shape to score immediately, and in response Harley "nobly" refuses to accept the handicap and puts the tile back where he had originally planned (and therefore doesn't score that round), taking some chiding from the other players in the process. Then, at 18:51 Harley executes his master stroke, using that tile as part of a configuration that allows him to play 3 scoring cards in one round, completely turning the tables on the game. So much for being noble and accepting his "mistake". Well played sir, well played indeed.
+kaplahworm Nah, he taught computer stuff. Which was cool on its own because he had use making music videos and such and didn't mind us watching youtube in class.
Man I hope to one day be as excellent at sharing the hobby as wil is. "It's more important to make sure everyone is having fun than to win" should be a commandment. Another Bauza game to buy!
For those of you watch "Nerdy Nummies", this is the Tabletop episode that led to Rosanna having Drew on her show to make those fun Sharknado-inspired cupcakes.
Best episode yet. Ro was so stinkin' cute (and beautiful, as always). Drew was so eager and confident. Harley was hilarious and honest. And Will was so humble! Seriously...I have a competitive nature, too. To see Will fight off being competitive and crushing his opponents was refreshing. The synergy the players had was amazing, and this episode really put me in a fantastic mood. Great job, guys! ~From a loyal fan with a rather ridiculous user name. :D
Again a great episode. I really enjoyed watching you playng the game ... Even worse: Rodney Smith's Watch it Played playthrough already told me to buy the game ... And now you do the same ... Thank you very much! I. Need. To. Get. That. Game. Exclamation point. Exclamation point. Exclamation point.
I love this show. Because of table top and cooptitude, I'm a loyal geek and sundry subscriber. I also have much less money from buying too many board games. Looks like takenoko gets added to the list. Thanks Will.
This. This is the reason I have a love-hate relationship with TableTop. Since the first episode came out, I've managed to find myself several hundred dollars poorer from my frequent trips to game stores despite them being few and far between here in the South.
I love how excited Will is, and after that "I made a mistake so I'm gonna live with it" move by Harley, I'm definitely rooting for him. I mean seriously...
Takenoko is a really good game. We played several times with different groups of friends and everyone appreciated. The reason: it's simple, the logic of the game is easy to understand and the design well-curated. Of course games like Andor or Castle Panic are better for experienced players but for casual gaming with a group of friends (4 max) it's just perfect!
This is crazy... either I've been transported to an alternate dimension or I've been watching another show that's just like Tabletop because I could *swear* I've seen them do this game before, but I can't find it in the archives! ... Oh wait, maybe it was on International Tabletop Day. Whew! Got that figured out.
WOW! I was just playing Takenoko with my daughters 2 days ago, and I thought "Wil should totally play this on Tabletop". I think I may now have magical powers. "I should totally win the lottery" "I should totally win the lottery" "I should totally win the lottery" Damn. ;-( Fantastic episode though! Play Android:Infiltration next!
Owlbear! YES! Please, we need more Owlbear. We need an Owlbear show. Or an Owlbear vlog. No wait! An Owlbear channel!!! Yes, we need an Owlbear channel! Make that happen. Pretty please?
It's because they put the irrigation blocks around the pond. You're not supposed to do that; that way, the tiles can tessellate properly and you can put irrigation blocks on top.
Im surprised this doesnt come up more, but this is an AMAZING TWO PLAYER GAME!!! Good two player games are rare and and is very girlfriend friendly. Who doenst love that panda?!?!?
Harley , rosanna, and drew are all basically the same age. (Rosanna and Harley were born in 85, I think, and drew was born in 86) which makes them around 30-32 years old. Wil is 45. So younger doesn't have to mean 12, it could mean 18-25 years old, which is approximately the age of the people now, who use to watch icarly and Hannah Montana (Yes I know this is an old thread)
Had so much fun with you guys! Harley's beard was magical. Also thanks to my girl Tricia for teaching me some Japanese words ;)
Great Gatsby, Madam! You're so cute I want to have *your* babies. And I'm a Dude (^.^)
RogueScholarBlue i will like your comment good sir but not because i think you should have her babies but because i would like to have her babies and you simply commented that before i did.
You are welcome to come back any time you want, Ro. It was such a pleasure to have you on the show!!
Hello Tosanna.
hi Rosanna :)
"They say pink bamboo is the tastiest, but I've heard green bamboo feels the best inside you." Lost it.
This was the first ever TableTop episode I watched. I fell involve with this adorable and yet not so complicated game and I bought it. Now almost one year later I have started to play more advanced board games and I have gotten many new friends thanks to board games and role playing games.

MyEpicPhone haha it's fine, it didn't sound sarcastic ^^
@@sunshineflicker6120 Awww! 🥰
TIME FOR A NEW #TABLETOP!
***** welcomes *****, Rosanna Pansino and ***** as they play #Takenoko. Who's Bamboo is the biggest? Find out now!
Know what the wife and I are doing tonight!!! Thanks guys
Way to show everyone the benefits of the new comment system! I know everyone fears change but hating change for the sake of hating change is silly.
aww yeah
Taylor Adams So, the top comment on the video right now is a comment advertising the video on google plus. Seems unnecessary.
Love the video, but the new comment system does very weird things.
Yeah, active discussions really should have less prominence, makes sense...
Okay, here's what cracked me up. First off **SPOILER**, don't read if you don't want to know how the game progresses.

He knew perfectly what he was doing the entire time, he's not dumb. Such a good pokerface on that guy. 10/10, will subscribe to epic meal time
Rosanna is too adorable for words^^
+Demian Haki SHES 30?!? WHAT IS THIS SORCERY
+John Christopherson I thought she was 28, I even read her book and still though she was 28!!!!!!!
Hey I did all the cooking and he's doing all the eating sad panda
Ro is absolutely adorable, and I'm pretty sure she's not real but a CGI composite of all the cutest things on the planet.
Harley's witchcraft move was a riot :) Nice play through Wil and company!
Seeing this comment made me realize what an absolute CRIME is is that Rodney was never a guest on this show!
SPOILER ALERT* I'm so happy I finally won something!! ..just kidding
...or am I?
Congratulations, you looked very proud. And the important thing is you beat *****
You played like a champion, sir, and you earned it!
To this day, I've never seen someone so happy to have won on tabletop. I'm happy for you
Totally deserved. Well played, and such great sportsmanship!
Calhoun always wins.
This was a GREAT episode of Tabletop. I really enjoyed everyone and the game! Keep it up you guys!
Hmm, never thought i'd find enjoyment in watching people play a board game on youtube, but this format is very entertaining. Subscribed.
It is seriously weird seeing Harley on TH-cam when he was also one of my high school teachers. Awesome weird, not awkward weird.
+Unyu Duet Did he throw bacon at everyone in class?
+kaplahworm Nah, he taught computer stuff. Which was cool on its own because he had use making music videos and such and didn't mind us watching youtube in class.
+Unyu Duet Wow... So how does it feel now watching him make crazy culinary concoctions with bacon, Jack Daniels, and tons of meat every other week?
mtnetsurfer Freaking awesome.
+Unyu Duet Funny to think how much more money he makes making vidoes than he makes teaching.
"Normally it's the tallest player, but I don't really like that..."
--Harley looks right at the camera.
nam nam nam nam nam nam!!!
Man I hope to one day be as excellent at sharing the hobby as wil is. "It's more important to make sure everyone is having fun than to win" should be a commandment.
Another Bauza game to buy!
We bought the game. My 5 and 8 year old love it, and I immensely enjoy playing it with them. Thanks!
im getting a parks and rec vibe from this episode, Ro is Leslie, Harley is Ron, Wil is Andy, and Drew is Chris
For those of you watch "Nerdy Nummies", this is the Tabletop episode that led to Rosanna having Drew on her show to make those fun Sharknado-inspired cupcakes.
Rosanna's laugh at 27:37 is one of the cutest sounds I've heard in months.
Best episode yet.
Ro was so stinkin' cute (and beautiful, as always).
Drew was so eager and confident.
Harley was hilarious and honest.
And Will was so humble!
Seriously...I have a competitive nature, too. To see Will fight off being competitive and crushing his opponents was refreshing.
The synergy the players had was amazing, and this episode really put me in a fantastic mood. Great job, guys!
~From a loyal fan with a rather ridiculous user name. :D
best comment round these parts
I'd like to say thanks to the graphics people, the animations of the panda, gardener and emperor were brilliant
Rosanna is easily, EASILY the most adorable person who has ever been on this show.
+Tucker3903 More than Ashley Johnson?
+Danny Pan Ashley is really likeable, and really pretty, but I wouldn't call her "adorable".
+Tucker3903 What about Karen Gillan?
Her foot/arm thing!
You clearly missed the Smash Up episode w/Cara Santa Maria.
But, but... what about Ashley Burch? I guess I am bias because of how damn adorable she is on the two episodes of Critical Role she was on.
Harley's winners smile right at the end made me smile a lot XD
Oh god Harley killed it this week. That shit-eating grin when he won was just priceless.
spoiler much! I like when he was like "I don't know if at this point in the game someone becomes a cylon or what..." lol..
Why are you complaining about spoilers? Dont read the comments till your done watching.
Christemo
you're* and YOUR comment was at the top and I read it before I could stop myself.
mistyaqua
Same thing happened to me. You can't trust anyone these days!
Christemo Dude. Lame.
Thanks Will and crew for recommending , got this as a gift for my fiance ,she was over the moon! We have had a blast playing!
Again a great episode. I really enjoyed watching you playng the game ... Even worse: Rodney Smith's Watch it Played playthrough already told me to buy the game ... And now you do the same ... Thank you very much! I. Need. To. Get. That. Game. Exclamation point. Exclamation point. Exclamation point.
Harley and Ro have GOT to do more videos together. That is just a genius combination.
Next time on Epic Meal Time: Deep fried bamboo wrapped in bacon, with special guest Wil Wheaton
Thanks for this show and for this episode. Cheers!
I love this show. Because of table top and cooptitude, I'm a loyal geek and sundry subscriber. I also have much less money from buying too many board games. Looks like takenoko gets added to the list. Thanks Will.
This. This is the reason I have a love-hate relationship with TableTop. Since the first episode came out, I've managed to find myself several hundred dollars poorer from my frequent trips to game stores despite them being few and far between here in the South.
The graphics and animations in this are brilliant! Good job, geek & sundy crew.
"They're getting bamboozled" *wink* *my beard grows 6 inches instantaneously*
awesome lineup of guests! ^^ Takenoko looks really cool and the artwork and animation of the panda eating stuff was really great. :)
'You can't always trust a guy with a big beard... they're hiding secrets in there"
THEY'RE ON TO US
They say pink bamboo is the tastiest, but I hear green bamboo feels the best inside you. wtf lol
That grin at the end...im still laughing,...my sides!
I love how excited Will is, and after that "I made a mistake so I'm gonna live with it" move by Harley, I'm definitely rooting for him. I mean seriously...
Turned out it wasn't all that much of a mistake after all.
"Green bamboo feels the best inside you" ...........brain.....why do you do this to me?
11 point card play. Harley throws down the mic. Picks it back up for the "bamboozled" pun and throws it down again.
Well played, Harley. Well played.
Paul Bauman I didn't get the pun :(
As Aventuras de Gui bamboo? bamboozled? wokka wokka?
Between Nerdy Nummies and Epic Mealtime, there should be an awesome snack break in the extended cut for this episode. Very cool game!
I've seen this episode multiple times, It's one of my favourites, I love everything about it.
Next week, we eat the Emperor.
That wink at 22:15 hahahahaha
I like how Harley thinks beating Wil is a massive accomplishment, boy does he does not know Wil's pain.
The accomplishment is more in his winning at all with so little experience.
chakrafiend I'm fairly certain everyone but Wil had yet to play the game.
This is my most favourite game ever! Really!!! And I bought it just because of you and this episode - thanks so much!
I miss tabletop so much…
Great seeing TH-camrs that I actually follow and love on on here. Fuckin' love ya, Wil. Keep makin' great quality videos!
Surprise, surprise, Harley wins. I guess, that's why he's the Dean of Video Game High School.
Calhoun always wins.
It's all about the game
AHHH VGHS REFERENCE
Another great episode with a great group of players. This is one of my favorite TT's now.
Well... now I need to go out and but Takenoko and Tokaido. Japanese themed my game night at my house!!!
Don't forget to add Sushi Go!
Best line of the episode, "I earned this.". I laughed so hard when Harley said that.
***** Dat victory speech. It made me laugh more than the rest of the whole episode.
All the guests were really good this week! One of the best lineups yet!
I just recently saw this game in a local shop and thought it looked cute. Now I am excited to see it being played. I think I will go back and buy it.
Josh A. Cagan and Harley Morenstein would have such great banter/chemistry, I think. You really find top notch personalities to game with.
Takenoko is a really good game. We played several times with different groups of friends and everyone appreciated. The reason: it's simple, the logic of the game is easy to understand and the design well-curated. Of course games like Andor or Castle Panic are better for experienced players but for casual gaming with a group of friends (4 max) it's just perfect!
most awesome tabletop episode ever Ro and Will Wheaton :D Made my day :)
That was the best outro ever! Lol. Harley shamelessly plugging. haha.
FINALLY a new table top video .. been waiting for what feels like ages for a new one ... i want maaawwwwrrr
This is crazy... either I've been transported to an alternate dimension or I've been watching another show that's just like Tabletop because I could *swear* I've seen them do this game before, but I can't find it in the archives!
...
Oh wait, maybe it was on International Tabletop Day. Whew! Got that figured out.
Had the same feeling, but it was on ITD
Congrats to Harley for such an epic play, and such an awesome guy. Loved this episode.
Considering Harley specifically went against Wil's advice for that yellow tile earlier he knows what he's doing.
Owlbear spotted at 12:20! lol! I love that you guys keep using them as a running joke!
WOW! I was just playing Takenoko with my daughters 2 days ago, and I thought "Wil should totally play this on Tabletop". I think I may now have magical powers.
"I should totally win the lottery"
"I should totally win the lottery"
"I should totally win the lottery"
Damn. ;-(
Fantastic episode though! Play Android:Infiltration next!
This game is definitely going on the wishlist. Another great episode! Thanks guys!
Owlbear! YES!
Please, we need more Owlbear. We need an Owlbear show. Or an Owlbear vlog. No wait! An Owlbear channel!!! Yes, we need an Owlbear channel!
Make that happen. Pretty please?
"....Harley is a witch," and "I think Harley is keeping cards in his beard." hahahahaha I love this game, and am quite happy to see it on Tabletop!
The entire time the only thing I was wanting to do was push the tiles together and make sure they looked aesthetically pleasing
I feel you! What is wrong with them?!
It's because they put the irrigation blocks around the pond. You're not supposed to do that; that way, the tiles can tessellate properly and you can put irrigation blocks on top.
28:05 I love how the sign on the couch says "reserved for Wil Wheaton", lol
Harley makes Battlestar Galactica references. Great!
The production on this episode was great, as always!
I love Harley pretending he doesn't know what's going on and actually convincing them all at first.
I'm so happy for Ro to get to the table! What a great person!
Was anyone else really that surprised that *SPOILERS FOR VIDEO*
Harley actually won in a game based on eating?
I'm not surprised.
Add bamboo stalks
Add bamboo stalks
Add bamboo stalks
Add bamboo stalks
Add bamboo stalks
Yeeeeah!!! I was waiting for this!! I love this show.
Aww. Ro's such a cutie. ^_^
And, yes, magic beard powers won the day. :D
PS: You guys need to get Dodger back on here at some point.
LOVED Dodger!
Best victory speech ever!! I might go check these guys out :)
That awkward moment when you realize the loser's prizes are infinitely cooler than your winning prize :(.
+twitchster77 XD
This is the first tabletop that makes me want to get the game played. I love Harley!
Woo! Drew Roy's in this!
Im surprised this doesnt come up more, but this is an AMAZING TWO PLAYER GAME!!! Good two player games are rare and and is very girlfriend friendly. Who doenst love that panda?!?!?
Loved the animations in this one :) Bonus points for owlbear appearance too :)
I had to rewind to notice when Harley was about to receive the certificate he says "Please be beer" hahahaha
This was pretty much the cutest tabletop of all times, very fitting to the game
I love how Harley just wants to beat Will, it is the best.
Really enjoyed this game! It seems like it would be great for families! Thanks for sharing!
"Green bamboo feels the best inside you." /sign
Just bought this game because you guys make it looks so fun. Can't wait to play it!
Harley was so stoned at the end while he was receiving the prize lol
Love you guys. Tabletop is My favorite show
Harley should just be on all the time.
i don't know what took me so long to start watching this series because it is nerd-tastic. i love it. favorite show on youtube now
Holy smokes, Ro, you're the most adorable being on the planet.
Love Ro! Really excited to see her here!
I love Falling Skies haha glad that Hal is on it (:
I really think that giving the guests prize props should become a regular part of the show!
"If you're a bit younger you may know me from iCarly" I feel judged.
Why so? iCarly was made for a younger audience.
... "I'm NOT 12"
Harley , rosanna, and drew are all basically the same age. (Rosanna and Harley were born in 85, I think, and drew was born in 86) which makes them around 30-32 years old. Wil is 45. So younger doesn't have to mean 12, it could mean 18-25 years old, which is approximately the age of the people now, who use to watch icarly and Hannah Montana
(Yes I know this is an old thread)
deatheater3716 to be fair I remember him from falling skies
Freaking love the guests. Falling Skies by far one of my favorite shows
Ro is so adorable I luv her :D
Just picked this up! Going to play tonight! Still can't understand why Wil Wheaton gets so much hate because he's awesome! :)
Ro is absolutely 100% adorable
I want this game.
Right? Seems really cool
