I'd like to run a big game of The Resistance. Takes at least five and up to ten. I'd like to go through about three times so should be about 90 minutes.

What time would you like to start?

1900 hours... I realized on my way home tonight I had forgotten the time

[Bix Conners]

The Empire must fall. Our mission must succeed. By destroying their key bases, we will shatter Imperial strength and liberate our people. Yet spies have infiltrated our ranks, ready for sabotage. We must unmask them. In five nights we reshape destiny or die trying. We are the Resistance! The Resistance is a party game of social deduction. It is designed for five to ten players, lasts about 30 minutes, and has no player elimination. The Resistance is inspired by Mafia/Werewolf, yet it is unique in its core mechanics which increase the resources for informed decisions, intensify player interaction, and eliminate player elimination. Players are either Resistance Operatives or Imperial Spies. For three to five rounds, they must depend on each other to carry out missions against the Empire. At the same time, they must try to deduce the other players' identities and gain their trust. Each round begins with discussion. When ready, the Leader entrusts sets of Plans to a certain number of players (possibly including himself/herself). Everyone votes on whether or not to approve the assignment. Once an assignment passes, the chosen players secretly decide to Support or Sabotage the mission. Based on the results, the mission succeeds (Resistance win) or fails (Empire win). When a team wins three missions, they have won the game.

I will sign up for a game or two of the Resistance before Robinson Crusoe starts

My name is Dyson Yobb and I am self publishing a boardgame using the idiegogo crowdfunding platform. See the campaign here:  www.indiegogo.com/projects/nation-the-civ-card-game

My game is called Nation: A MIGHTY Spark. It is a worker placement civilization card game where 2 to 4 players can play, vying to have the most victory points at the end of the game. Worker tokens are placed on a map cards to:
A. Play cards from your hand that give unique and sometimes game changing abilities and resources.
B. Build up towns which give you victory points and  have placed in their nation.
C. Explore new map areas to annex tribes or obtain more civilians.
D. Battle other players to to overthrow their towns or remove their civilian cards

A game can take from half an hour to an hour and is fairly easy to learn.

I would like to playtest the prototype copy of my game. Starting at 7:30 and again at 8:30. I hope you can join me!

[Street_Disciple]

I would like to try Space Alert please.

[Rosencrantz]

I've convinced my brother to join me.  Can you also add Tyson Mulatz to both Space Alert and Robinson Crusoe?  Much appreciated.

[Baerik]

should anyone drop out of either game, could I be added to the waiting list for Robinson Crusoe as well as Space Alert.

[R Newell]

Shane, you can have my spot on Robinson Crusoe.  I'll teach/moderate it.

[omegadirective]

I'd like an early Mutant Meeples.

[Tempest]

I went ahead and removed Formula D from the scheduled games list; I need to hear from a couple more people, but it sounds like the first of October is looking better for everyone.

I might go ahead and bust out some Small World at 6:30 if people are interested!
