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:

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.

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.

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.

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.  :)

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.
