I don't understand TNTL 'Hard Mode'
Maybe I'm a little stupid but it feels like the only difference was that they weren't allowed to pity laugh. I understand the occasional pity laugh to keep the video interesting or for some less improv skilled guests but imo if there's so much pity laughing in the main format that your 'hard mode' is just 'don't do that' then the format itself is overused.
EDIT: I think I need to clarify this is based on the most recent TNTL, I was unaware past 'Hard Modes' were different.
