Roast The Group Chat
Roast the group you're playing with.
The people in the room are the topic. Four slides: a field guide to the group, evidence, rankings, and a closing statement. Rated on Accuracy, Brutality and whether everyone will recover.
How it works
- 1.Everyone gets a different angle on the same group
- 2.Name names: vague roasts don't score
- 3.Explain your rankings
- 4.The room decides who went too far
Your deck is already started
Nobody starts at a blank white slide. Every player gets these 4 slides pre-laid-out in the Roast theme, with a prompt on each one telling you what goes there.
