I agree. It's also one of my best gaming experiences ever, if not the best.

Kyara and I would be interested in playing Clank Catacombs
I'm doing a roll 'n write challenge on Board Game Geek for the month of April so I'm going to bring a couple of those. I think it will be Qwixx (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/131260/qwixx) and either Silver & Gold (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/270673/silver-gold)or Explorers (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/330174/explorers), probably starting around 6:00 or so (they all play 4 players). Anyone that's around is welcome to play.
Then I'll bring:

I'd be up for a quick game of Qwixx at 6pm if that's the way you go!

I am dropping by for the first time and would be interested in trying out Gold west!
I'll join Kingdom Builder and Gold West.
Does anyone have a copy of FURNACE? Our host Chad saw me playing it at PGX and was asking about it, so if someone could bring a copy then maybe I can teach it to Chad (and others).

I played it with Cameron at PGX and Steve Lloyd also has a copy. Maybe one of them could bring it to a future Meeple Monday.
I'll formally put the Flip & Write game Explorers on the list to give another 6:30 option.

I wonder if I should save a spot for Mike McC because I don't think Kingdom Builders will be over in 60 minutes...

Thanks for the offer but I won't be available for that game this evening.
Do you like trick-taking games? If so, you might dig Stick 'Em where you try to collect as many cards as possible while avoiding the one color that will give you negative points. Stick 'Em turns trick-taking on its head.

I know about Kristy, Cameron and Steve... Mark Macza has it also... didn't know if any of those folks were planning to attend.
Besides, I don't think there will be time for that game tonight.
Thanks anyway!
I'll join Takenoko. :)

Well, BGG said 45 minutes. I considered 75 minute playtime but that seemed weird. It's up to Mike if he wants to chance it.

KINGDOM BUILDER is listed as 45 min. so it should be ok, but maybe a better option is to drop out of KB (played it lots) and try EXPLORERS instead.
Please add Marshall to Explorers and Jessica to Kingdom Builder
I'll jump in Takenoko and Stick Em'

I was looking at my log and was seeing anywhere from 26 minutes (2 players) to 1hr 31 for 4 players. It really depends on which scoring cards are out and whether you are teaching from scratch. Now that I've syphoned Mike off for my game I'm sure you'll be done in 59 minutes. :)
I'll add Susey for the last spot of Explorers.

It did. Chad should be posting the details on the night soon. Chad didn't make an announcement, he was stealthy and handed them out. We did announce it after 9pm though. We will make a bigger splash for the draw next week.
