"Eliza G."

Bring a couple of your board/card games and let's have some fun. We're staying from 1pm to 5pm. Usually around a dozen people come, I invite other friends and meetup groups to hang out.

Nate brings totally cool strategy games by Mayfair Games, Rio Grande Games, etc. These games are popular with the competitive intellectuals, and are super fun.

My spouse and I typically bring "social games" that aren't necessarily competitive, but definitely promote good laughs and making new friends. Join our fun!

This week my spouse and I are bringing....
---the classic Apples to Apples game. This is a fun social game that we want to try with new people!

--- another even more hilariously fun social game, Imaginff

----AND... We are specifically *NOT* bringing order of the stick Adventure Game this Sunday, sorry.
****Please email me specifically if you want to play it next week, on March 28th.*****
Or you can buy your own copy at Gabi's shop!
Here's Order of The Stick ("O.O.T.S.") for those of you who haven't played yet.

This is a 2-6 player game, MINIMUM play time 4 hours. Play must start at 1pm when we play it.

------------
In case you're new, here's our happy-dappy plan to get our games running smoothly. Seems to help!
------------
Some of us are afflicted with chronic lateitis. Do not fear! I use this CURE:
1. Subtract driving time from 1pm, I.E. 30 minutes. Add 15 more minutes, therefore leave at 12:15.
2. Answer phone, eat burrito, forget car keys, etc, for 15 min.
3. Start drivin'
4. HOLY TIME TRAVEL, BATMAN! It's 1pm and I'm here!

Ha ha hope that made you laugh. But I am trying to maximize the fun quotient for our game teachers.
So arrive and get your vote on what to play! If you're LATE, you gotta WAIT. Some people get in on a second game, starting around 3pm. :)

Lastly, a friendly reminder, Gabi's Shop closes earlier on Sundays. Please help everybody put games away by 5pm or sooner. It can take awhile!

Thanks! We're lookin forward to seein ya.
