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!

The classic is back!  An idle comment last night inspired me to bring the game on Tuesday!

We interrupt this post with the following important announcement...

[Russian national anthem breaks into the room]

[in Russian accent]On behalf of government of wonderful Russian republic, it is said in former Soviet Russia that you do not play games, games play you!  And in honour of former Soviet republic, current government of Russia wish to celebrate upcoming DECISIVE VICTORY at Megagame!  We sponsor exciting KREMLIN GAME at Chewday Challenge!  We quite sure all polonium REMOVED from Boston Pizza for this night only!

[Russian anthem stops]

Umm... well... I guess you'd better play then!  Vladimir says so.

The game takes up to six but we'll limit it to five due to table space and wanting to be done by 8:30.  We will start punctually at 6:30 to help ensure we're timely.

I'm bringing out the hidden movement/deduction game Letters from Whitechapel to play on Tuesday. One player is Jack The Ripper, carrying out his gruesome crimes while all of the other players are detectives trying to stop him before he kills again. Jack moves in secret and the other players try to catch him based on where the crimes happened and the rare glimpses they catch of him.

We'll start at 8:30. The game's length is hard to determine because if the detectives catch Jack, it can end up being a much shorter game. But with teaching it'll probably end up being 120-150min long.
It plays 6 players and it would be great to get a full game going. Please hold spots for: Lori, PhotoJim and omegadirective. With them and myself that still leaves two spots open.

Note: This is a play test for a game I have developed, so I will be looking for constructive feedback about the game after its conclusion. It has a leprechaun theme, so I thought it would be perfect for St. Patrick's Day. I have attached the rules, and I would love for the players to read them ahead of time in order to be prepared to comment on their effectiveness as well.
