I'm going to bring Formula D and aim for a 6:30 start this time. As a note, I'm going to be starting the league the following week, so this is a good chance if anyone who hasn't played before but might be interested in league play to check it out. Of course, all are welcome :) In the mean time, I just have a few finishing touches to make, and I will have all the preparations for the league ready by the 11th.

Of course, play time for Formula D is about 120-150 minutes with teaching, depending on how many players are involved. There is room for up to 10 people. As a heads up, I'll probably be running it as a regular race this time.

Barry, are you up for Yggdrassil this week? I figure 3-4 players is best for this and Alex and I are both in.

Colin, YES! Please sign me up at whatever time you would like to start, and thanks for remembering that I had an interest in playing. Looking forward to it.

I will be running this at 6:30. So far it is myself, Alex Dearborn and Barry Ellis. We have room for 1 more, so first person to sign up is in.

This is a co-op game, and it is the hardest one I have played yet. This is not one of my usual beginner friendly games that I bring out most weeks. It does not have a thick rulebook but it is challenging. My record so far is 1 win vs 9 loses.

Aw man, that sounds awesome. If I wasn't running a game I'd be in. Hopefully you bring it another time; I love playing against a stacked deck.

I'm Ambassador this week so I might not be available for a 6:30 game but if the evening plays out like it usually does for the Ambassador, I will be available around 8pm for a game. I'm going to bring Galaxy Trucker, just in case. It supports 4 players. If you see me setting and up and would like to be a space trucker, make sure you wander over.

Something has come up so Damien and myself will no longer be able to come so therefore will now be unable to play Formula D. Sorry for the short notice. See you soon.

Damien & Becky

Yikes, three people only so far? Might not run it at that point; it's usually good with five or more. In any case, I'll still bring it, I'll just have some back-up games just in case. If people wanna join in on something else, that's okay too.
