I can brig ghost stories next week... but prepare to lose

Doesn't look like a lot going on other than the TTR tourney after 8 PM, so I'll throw Castaways out there again.  I know this is the 3rd time I've listed it, but every time a few people mention they want to try it next time

If no one actually wants to play Castaways I'll join in on Cosmic Encounter at 9

Think Robinson Crusoe in that you have to survive and work together to escape the island you and your fellow players are trapped on, meets Choose Your Own Adventure where each exploration decision you make affects the rest of the game.  While it is co-op in that everyone needs to work together to escape, only the player with the most Story Points will win - points are gained by leading the charge on building, exploring, and scavenging.

I am sorry but I don't believe I'll be able to make it tonight as I seemed to have the stomach flu or something. Sorry for the inconvince.

Aww, too bad.  Hopefully we can get a group together for castaways tonight, otherwise I'll try to jump in on something else.

You and three others are shipwrecked on a desert isle, and must work together to signal a passing plane and get rescued.  But who will be the hero?  Beneath all the co-operation and starvation is a not-so-silent struggle to be portrayed as the hero of the story while convincing all those other suckers to take care of the menial tasks of staying alive.  Of course, without someone finding the food and cleaning the camp you won't make it through the night, but when CNN comes knocking down your door they're going to come after the one with the best story - and that should be you!

I'll join Snow Tales at 830

Looking to teach something for next Tuesday... anyone have any requests?

Mind posting Betrayal at House on the Hill on the main list?  We'll need to find at least one more player.

GAME TITLE: Betrayal at House on the Hill
TEACHER: RTigger
START TIME: 8:30
DURATION: 1h30m
# OF PLAYERS: 3 - 6

Have you seen the movie Cabin in the Woods? This is basically the board game version.

A team of 3 to 6 rag tag investigators stumble onto a mansion that is randomly created as they explore each room, all the while awaiting THE HAUNT - a random point in the game where one of 50 different plot twists occur, dependent on the item and room that caused it.  Most haunts result in one of the members of the group becoming evil and trying to take out everyone else while they attempt accomplish an objective.  With the large number of haunts and the dynamically generated 3-floor mansion, every game is guaranteed to be a unique experience.

I'll save a spot for RockBane who originally requested the game.
