If you would like to schedule a game. Please post in this event thread with the following information:
Name of the game, when you would like to start, The duration of the game, and the number of players it can accommodate.


Due to the overwhelming success of ChewsDay Challenge we might need to limit table space in the early evening if attendance is high and the restaurant is busy. We ask that larger-sized games be planned for 7:30 and later after Boston Pizza's dinner rush when we can spill out into the dining area, if needed, and with the restaurant's permission.  Please be considerate when choosing your table area to maximize player density. Thank you for helping make ChewsDay Challenge a success!

I recently found a copy of the Lamont Brothers' out-of-print, dogsled racing game Snow Tails and am bringing it out on Tuesday. The game's played on a modular track, players moving and controlling their sleds with cards played on their personal boards. If both of your dogs are pulling at the same speed you're balanced and get a speed bonus. But if one dog is pulling harder it'll cause your sled to drift on the ice - which is also how you turn. If you hit trees, obstacles or other sleds you get "Dent" cards which can then clog up your hand.

It plays up to 5 players and everyone's welcome to give it a try. It also takes up quite a bit of table space so I'm scheduling it to start at 8:30. And since each game only takes around 45 minutes I figured we could have two games on two different tracks for a total of 90-120 minutes of racing with teaching and set-up.
