All Things Tom Scott

An unofficial community dedicated to all things Tom Scott.

Rules

1. Professionalism

Tom holds a high standard for his content, and we should maintain that as his fans. There isn't a strict definition for this, but in general, just use common sense and be polite. Disagreements are fine, but be respectful and keep it strictly to the topic at hand -- no personal attacks, no "straw man"-ing or any other bad-faith agruing. Bigotry will be banned without hesitation.

2. Relevancy

This community is about all things Tom Scott. Of course, that's its name. But specifically, it's about Tom Scott the YouTube channel, and associates. That includes friends like the TechDif crew. Outside content featuring or about Tom is also welcome.

What is out of scope is Tom Scott the person. Anything digging into his personal life or history is strictly prohibited. That's a big part of why he wanted the subreddit taken down, so let's show that we can be better than that.

3. Moderator discretion

Without trying to list out every bad thing you can do, again, just use common sense and ask yourself if Tom would approve. If Tom isn't likely to approve, neither are the mods, even if the rules don't explicitly prohibit it. Even if nothing is going wrong yet, we may also preemptively stop conversations that look like they're going to a bad place. I'm not trying to micromanage y'all, I just want to keep every nice and tidy so Tom doesn't get upset with us.

Lateral Book

A new Lateral game book is now available for pre-order, slated for release on November 14th!

We are delighted to announce that the new Lateral game book is now available for pre-order!

100 questions, most of which are brand new, exclusive to the book, and will never appear on the show. Plus there's the best of the questions from the show itself, to play by yourself or with a group. It's great for meet-ups with friends, game nights, road trips and family gatherings.

Each question has all the official clues and background notes — all the stuff that‘s on the question cards but doesn‘t always make it into the show. Plus, there are warm-up questions and bonus articles.

Also, Tom‘s played all the new questions himself, so you can see if you can beat him.

Pre-orders count towards our first week sales which are super important in the publishing trade.

As of writing this post, pre-orders are only available for the UK edition, but editions for the US and rest of the world are also in the works ("coming soon"). Check the website for all the links and latest info


Lateral Live Show

There will be a live recording of an episode of Lateral in London on October 12th! Specifically at The Clapham Grand at 12:30 PM BST as part of Cheerful Earful Podcast Festival. There will also be opportunities to buy copies of the book early

You can buy tickets at https://lateralcast.com/live/
