When you Spout Lore on topics beyond the wall, on a 6-, you know nothing.

For anyone who doesn’t get the joke: this is a horrible move. Never make a 6- result that says “nothing happens.”
On a 10+, nothing BAD happens. Is that better?
Oh I thought this was a Game of Thrones reference…like, Jon Snow tried to do this move and rolled a 6-….
Nothing happens… that you know of
It is a GoT reference, that’s the joke. The move is just badly designed on top of that.
Alternately, you can “know Nothing” and immediately take the Nihilist class.
On a 7-9, you know nothing. The facts are right but your interpretation reveals your ignorance. There is a nuance you are missing.
Nihilist Starting move:
When you argue that reality is such a vague term, roll 1 joint, and go outside.
On a 6-, you Know nothing. You cease being sure of anything. At all. Ever. Literally everything is up for grabs.
The GM stares blankly at you and thus has handed you a Golden opportunity. As a player your your job is to ask them: ‘So Gamesmaster, What do you do?’
On a 6- a Stark dies
Better: On a 7-9, you know nothing. Take 1 hold. When you realize your wrongheadedness, you may say how you were wrong and spend hold, 1 for 1, to take +1 forward.
The postmodernist’s starting move: When you Spout Lore about a topic, on 10+ you choose your own truth. On 7-9 you have to tolerate the truths of everybody in the party, since all are equally valid. On 6- you realise that there is no such thing as truth anyway, you suffer an existential crisis and start worshiping Cthulhu.
Nihilist advanced move:
Alignment: Nihilist, when nothing happens you get an experience
it’s hard to level up as a Nihilist
Nihilist Front: Everything is at stake, but nothing has intrinsic value.
Nihilist Advanced Move:
Is That A Marmoset?
You may use your animal companion as leverage when you Parley.
Tony Ferron wins the thread.
Jon Snow’s not a ranger. PWNED.
Diego Minuti On a 10+, Ned Stark dies. On a 7-9, this. On a 6-, also that.
