Some of you eagle-eyed attendees at the October 30 Meeple Monday may have noticed Dana, Dyson, Steve, and I were playing what looked like a prototype game. Well, it was a prototype. Designed by Dana. Dyson encouraged him to bring it out. (We also played Dyson's very enjoyable game, which he co-published a few years ago. I'd encourage him to bring it out again, too).

Anyway, I proposed to Dana that he lend me his game and that I run it at the November 6 Meeple Monday. I'd use his rulebook to teach the game, and I'd hand select some seasoned gamers to give it a whirl. I'd provide feedback on the rulebook and get feedback from the players. Ideally, we'd get two games in that evening.

I'd like to invite Mark M, John S, and John E to join me. We'd start at 7pm. Please confirm.

I am selecting the two John's because I know they like their card-driven games. I'm selecting Mark because he's a seasoned gamer with a lot of experience with a lot of different games.

I talked about Apiary to John S and mentioned I'd bring it this week but I'm not sure if he was coming out so he'll have to confirm. And, now he has another option with Chad too!

I've removed John S from the Prototype Game list so he is free for Apiary.

For Dana's Prototype Game (Gods & Monsters), I'm looking for 2 more people interested in a playtest. I should say the game has been playtested many times. This particular test is a test of the rulebook as I'll be using the rulebook to teach the game instead of Dana teaching it. I could even take on a third player and I'll simply teach the game and record feedback.
