WARNING! This Episode of LIVE Cards Against Humanity contains language that is inappropriate for the work environment or children.

The GAMEBREAKER staff recently decided it might be fun to try out Cards Against Humanity. And since we all live in different parts of the world, we knew we’d have to play online. So… why not share the joy with you, our lovely viewers?

Taking to Google Hangout, eight members of the GAMEBREAKER crew faced off in an epic battle to see who is the most twisted, perverse person on staff.  The community even joined in the fun by voting for their favorite cards in the chat.

Viewers are asked to keep in mind that this Pilot episode of LIVE Cards Against Humanity also functioned as a live test for the show.  Therefore, some of the details are being worked out on the fly and more changes are to come.  But, as it turns out, this is a good way to get backstage look at the GAMEBREAKER team.

In fact, you may be surprised by what you learn.

How does Cards Against Humanity work?

Yeah, so I’m just pulling this from Wikipedia for you…

To start the game, each player draws ten white “answer” cards. One randomly chosen player begins as the Card Czar, and plays a black “question” card. The Card Czar reads the question out to the group. Each player answers the question by passing one white “answer” card, face down, to the Card Czar. The Card Czar shuffles all of the answers, reads them out loud in a humorous fashion, and picks their favorite. Whoever played that answer gets to keep the Black Card as one Awesome Point. After each round, a new player becomes the Card Czar, and every player draws back up to ten cards.

This episode included the following people:

  • Gary Gannon – Drivin’ The Bus
  • Rich “Winzor” – Tech Wizard
  • QuintLyn – General Manager
  • Tori McGrath – Free to Play Writer
  • Billy Bacsko – Graphics Guy
  • James Megretton – StarCraft 2 Writer
  • Jason Winter – Staff Writer
  • Troy Blackburn – League of Legends Writer

During each future episode of LIVE Cards Against Humanity, you will get the chance to see some of our staff members and join in the fun.  And as always, if for some reason you miss catching it live on Twitch, be sure to check here the next day for the VOD.

    Does Billy create the graphics for each story? If he does, I’m a big fan of his work.

      Absolutely agree! This was a set-up from the beginning!

    • Demi_God

      Yep, Gary pulled a Lance Armstrong.  I look forward to his Oprah confession.

    Absolutely hilarious.  Love this game.  Great show haha

    I love Cards against Humanity and I love that this is a thing you guys are doing now.  Definitely keep it up.  It got a lot better when you started showing the cards on screen as you read them.

  • Selexin18

    This was hilarious but the only issue is that there is a limited number of cards. But I very much enjoy the idea of the GB crew getting to play these types of games as a show. It’s nice to get to see more of the people responsible for some of the behind the scenes work on the site.

    This was a good way to start out my day at work lol.

  • Keigh

    Great fun. Wunt Moar Nao!

  • Evilevi501

    yes, GB.TV with a bit of personality pieces aimed at the older crowd. Nice.

    P.S. Gandolf<Bigger Blacker Dick

  • christopher murray

    How about you have mikeS as one of the people, but he is the audience, and they pick a set of cards through chat.  Maybe have chats cards on the side or something.

    Also everyone needs to be drinking while playing.

  • Vonpoot

    Gary’s rant against GBTV being terrible people as he sips out of his Smart Water bottle around the 1 hour mark, lololol.

  • http://www.facebook.com/luispaulo.silva.58 Luis Paulo Silva

    Just the randomness of the cards makes this very worthy of watching XD

    Keep doing it Gary, it’s so nice to see the other guys involved in GBTV talking and having a good laugh :D

  • Daxxn

    The way gary did the questions at the end was perfect so we could read the possible answers so we can still hear everyones reaction was best  but to make the game better the winning card   that person should take a shot of something atleast 100 proof and play till A) one of the guys____ and or B one of the Girls ____  muhahahaha

    Loved the show guys, had me cracking up for the whole hour! I say bring on more episodes!

  • Oldschoolremag

    This was great. I hope to see you all playing a new morally depraved game every week. Also, was especially good to see so many more people on camera I hadn’t before. I can read stuff anywhere, but I come here for the videos and the people in them and tonight’s crew was hilarious. Well done, each and every one of you.

     I can’t stop laughing. It hurts. Send an ambulance!

  • Ravenstorm

    That was great guys! Keep it comming! Good job fixing things so we could see the cards too Gary, after that it was total fun! And it’s great to finally see the faces and hear the voices of the other writers too. They’re great.

  • Ian Date

    Awesome show! Laughed my arse off.

  • http://www.facebook.com/Joshua.jl.Jones Joshua Jl Jones

    My face is hurting from the laughter. I can’t wait for the next installment.

  • InvaderMig

    This was fucking amazing and needs to happen more often.  It’s great to see the writers involved and with no limitations.  Great idea, great show, keep em coming.

    Priceless! This was genius, I couldn’t stop laughing.

  • http://twitter.com/dularr Dularr

    Really fun, good to see everyone.  I would love to see one of the represent the live chat room. But, then from what I could tell, our answer would have always been “Bigger, Blacker…”

  • http://twitter.com/SneakyFatKid7 Eli Yannopoulos

    Show needs more baka and lore

  • mobtek mobtekl

    Love it, moar moar!

  • Remeer

    Definitely fun to watch, not so much to listen to, for anything like this I would be using something with push to talk if there’s going to be 6+ people, you guys had 8.

    Overall though, funny as hell.

    This was Amazing!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Paul-Mangan/1340633042 Paul Mangan

    I play this game with my friends. Loved watching what you guys/gals came up with though. Awesome.

  • http://www.facebook.com/spikeadilly Spike Barkshire

    I want to thank you guys for making me look into this game. You can dl the whole game from their website(for free) and take it to Staples(or wherever) to get printed and cut.  That is what I did.  My wife and I host “game night” every Tuesday night with some friends. This week we play Cards against humanity and  it was such a hit. Then the black card came around for me to read. I got “Old people smell like ________>”  The first card I looked at was “hot cheese” and I lost it for about 3 minutes. I couldn’t even get the words out of my mouth to read the card. I had everyone else rolling on the floor and they still had no idea what card I was trying to read. Thanks you guys for introducing me to this great game! Oh and “hot cheese” trumps “bigger blacker dick” in my house every time now because people just see me in convulsions whenever they use that card.

    gotta be drunk

    • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=21003660 Keith William Gretton

      It would be fun for the players but it wouldn’t make for fun viewing given that watching drunk people act stupid is pretty boring and annoying when you yourself aren’t drunk and/or hanging out with them and participating.

      But, if you are playing CAH with your friends you can add rules like losers drink, when a black card and white card can imply (can’t be explicit) an act against humanity (rape, molestation, abuse etc.) everyone drinks. (e,g, Gary’s black card read: New York’s social elite are paying thousands of dollars to experience and one of the answers was orphaned children – experience could imply molestation or it could just be an innocent meet them kind of deal.) Another liver destroying rule could be consecutive winners drink double/triple/etc for every consecutive win and also the person that read the cards has to drink before they start reading and if it’s still their turn after they’ve had a laughing fit they have to drink again.
