1000 Blank Cards experiences sought - eviltoast

I played this game back in the 00’s and had a pretty good time. My friend group was quite creative at the time so everyone got it. It was a raucous good time.

I’m just contemplating trying again and was seeking experiences and maybe tips on pulling off a successful session.

    I’m going to try to revive a dead post by commenting on my own experiences playing. Based on the upvotes, others seem interested too. Let’s see if it works

    I had a good crew of friends while in grad school in the 00’s. This was a super smart crew of bio-nerds so when I heard about this game on Slashdot (or maybe Memepool, can’t be sure) I knew I had the right crowd to try it.

    It was a successful session and we developed a lot of those inside jokes that tight social groups do.

    I tried again years later with another set of friends and it fell flat. Not a disaster but it was quickly abandoned for lack of general interest. This was also a crowd of high-wattage personalities so i still wonder what the difference was.

    That’s what prompted my question. Just seeking scene setting tips that might increase the chance the game goes well again.
