I recently picked up Tzolk'in, I could certainly teach that in the 6:30 spot (room for four players, plays in about 90 minutes I believe)

There's a Discworld game?! o.O

I feel like my life won't be complete until I've played it...

Does that mean you will be signing up to play Discworld Sleepy Dragon?

I should state that I will also be participating in tzolk'in, which sadly only leaves room for 3 more.

I think some Mayan Calender action is in order. T'Zolkin for me.

That filled up fast! I might make it a double-header and start a second game after the first one finishes if there is enough interest.

Becky and I will join a second game of Tzolkan if there is one. If not...well, I've been hankering to play Catan with other humans, if anyone's interested.

I'm okay with hosting a second game if you guys wanna play. I'd say it should be good to go around 8:00pm-ish? The game is only about as long as it takes for people to plot out their turns. I imagine depending on what time you got in, you'd have enough time to run a game of Catan; by the time you were done we'd be ready for a new game of Tzolk'in. Whatever works :)

I can host and play a game of Suburbia at 6:30pm.  It is fairly easy to learn, 4 players and can be played in about 90 minutes.

I'd be in for a second game of Tzolkin depending on how things go with my Ambassadorial duties.

I'd like to sign up for Suburbia.  I might be a little late as I'm going to have to race from work.

To be fair to the other players, it now appears that I will not be able to make the 6:30 pm slot for T'zolk'in. So, please scratch off my name to give someone else a go.

I will at least be stopping in some time during the evening to complete a sales transaction for a couple of used games, and if I have time may be able to get in on a game or two as well.

Aw, dang. Well, I might be able to teach if you'd like a spot. It looks like there's enough interest for two games; I could easily just sit out and teach/moderate the later version if you'd be interested Bellis :)

Also, if I wasn't already involved I'd definitely be playing Galaxy Trucker, it's super fun. I recommend it to anyone looking for a game tomorrow!

Post by: DCStyles on August 20, 2013, 03:05:38 AM
I can start Suburbia around 6:45 Bricktown, hopefully there's not too many standoffs or lightning around tomorrow so you can do a quick shift change.

Post by: Bricktown on August 20, 2013, 06:02:53 AM
I'm still training so I'm sure I can get out by 6:30, plenty of time to make the north end by then.  Can't wait to play Suburbia, looks awesome.

I'll probably start the second game of Tzolk'in at 8:00PM since there seems to be enough interest; I think an hour and a half is enough time to teach and play.

I'm sorry but something came up and I can no longer make it. My apologies.
