I will bring out Cheating moth for a 6:00 start plays 5. About 30 mins to play.


http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/105593/mogel-motte (http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/105593/mogel-motte)
(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcf.geekdo-images.com%2Fimages%2Fpic1072133_t.jpg&hash=d90f91b0e3f64bd78f7df74430a40cbab656c91e)
Cheating is forbidden? Not in this naughty game of cards – in fact, you'll probably have to cheat in order to win.
In Mogel Motte you want to get rid of all the cards in your hand before anyone else. Each player starts the round with a hand of eight cards, with one player (the oldest) receiving the guard bug – which stays on the table throughout the game – and one card being turnd face-up to start a discard pile. The cards are numbered 1-5, with the majority of them having only numbers; some cards have special abilities that come into play when added to the discard pile or in a player's hand.
On a turn, a player places one card from her hand onto the discard pile; that card must be numbered exactly one higher or lower than the card on top of the discard pile. (The numbers wrap, so a 1 can be played on a 5 and vice versa.) If a player can't play a card, she draws one from the deck and her turn ends.
There's another way to rid yourself of cards, though: cheating! Throughout the round, you can make cards disappear by dropping them on the floor, hiding them up your sleeve and so on. You must keep your hand of cards above the table at all times, you can't vanish more than one card at once, and you can't rid yourself of your final card this way. The player with the guard bug – and only him! – can call out other players for cheating, and no one can cheat while the accusation is being resolved. If the accusation was false, the Guard must draw a card; otherwise the cheating player takes back the card she tried to lose, is given a card from the Guard's hand as additional punishment, and becomes the new Guard.
Cheating is a necessity as the "Cheating Moth" cards can't be played onto the discard pile, but must be disappeared via cheating. (The Guard, however, can play these cards as the Guard is not allowed to cheat.)
The action cards work as follows:Ant: After an ant is played, everyone but the active player must take a card from the draw pile.

Since I am on a roll how about Eons at 7. 5 players about 90 mins


http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/137872/eons
(https://sask.games/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcf.geekdo-images.com%2Fimages%2Fpic1763707_t.jpg&hash=a8d0b27a94574a517ee065a4433f4339eda963a7)
"Nothing cannot exist forever." - Stephen Hawking
After the Big Bang, things moved quickly. So do you. Players in the game of Eons take on the roles of universal architects competing to shape the universe on a cosmic scale by gathering elemental building blocks to create stars, planets, and other cosmic phenomenon. In a strategy game like no other, the architects engage the laws of the cosmos, using stars to forge more complex elements and form other heavenly bodies.
Players must spend their own essence to marshal these elements, carefully gauging their resources and the benefits received from their planets and stars, as they guide the formation of their cosmos eon after eon; working to achieve the most victory points through a variety of strategies and hidden agendas to achieve their version of the universe. Because eventually, the universe will end, and only one player will be victorious...
Players build stars using elements commonly found in the universe, Hydrogen, Carbon, Oxygen and Iron. Once they build stars, the stars perform fusion, and can produce resources for the player to use to build additional stars, planets or other cosmic events. Each cosmic body the player builds is worth Essence, representing the power and influence the Architect has in the universe, and that Essence can be used to purchase more elements from the elemental stockpile to build more items. Players can also destroy stars and collect resources from the dead stars, and this is where the game turns to strategy and planning. Every cosmic body that is destroyed will decrease the entropy countdown, and when it reaches 0, the game is over.
Remaining cosmic bodies that grant victory points are totaled, and the player with the most victory points, wins! Although the goal is to have the most victory points at the end of the game, you will find that the game is also a resource management game, as if you deny resources that stars need to undergo fusion, they will die and accelerate endgame. Be prepared, build judiciously and destroy when you must to defend your universe!

I'm planning on bringing out Vinhos again.  Could you add it to the schedule for 6:30.   It plays up to 4 people and I think the last couple games took just a pinch more than 2 hours. 

Please and thank you.

Hey everyone, last week my friend Kim misplaced her watch.  Im just wondering if anyone found one last week after we left.  It's a steel grey color with a bright blue face, analog watch with no numbers.  Let me know!  Thanks!

Wow, that's a lot of people bringing out a lot of games. =)

I'm going to bring out Krosmaster Arena (4 players, 2 hours @ 6:30pm) I got the new Frigost expansion, so if anyone wants to try it I'd be really excited to check it out.

It looks like I should be able to get there earlier for a change. So, please put me down for Eons. Thanks!

I will also bring along Bridgetown Races for later play, if anyone would like to check it out.

Sorry Rosencrantz, I am going to miss Vinhos again. :(

I am sick as a dog. 90% sure I will not make it tonight, unless this ends up going away as quick as it hit me.

I'll be there, not sure if I'm joining or hosting anything. We'll see.  I did pick up the 'Farmers of the Moor' expansion for Agricola, so I'll probably bring that if any experienced Agricola players would like to give it a spin we can do that at some point. (being a somewhat difficult game to begin with, it's highly recommended that one is at least familiar with how to play the base game before attempting the expansion.)

I'll should be attending, was thinking of bringing out 8 minute empires as a filler game.  Although the name suggests 8 min... its supposed to be more like 20, but its still a quick play.
