Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Boston Game Night - JJ Foley's, Tuesday, May 28th
Posts
Of course new people are invited! This is about socializing, playing games, and having fun - recapturing a bit of the PAX spirit. Come on down!
No, I won't wear a robe. Yes, I will be drinking.

Wish I lived closer, Khadour.
It has been requested that I bring some Oreo-stuffed chocolate chip cookies with me. I don't know if I'll have the time to bake tomorrow, but I'll try to fit it in. If I do bring cookies, I'm going to do it Cookie Brigade style. So if you want cookies, bring money to donate the Child's Play.
Khadour, you might want to update the OP with date, time, location, etc. So people can check it and easily see what's up
Excellent! OP updated - thanks for reminding me. Apparently, I'm getting rusty at this whole forum thing. . .
See you tomorrow night! I'll be sure to toss a copy of Apples to Apples in the box for you, since it sounds like trinistand won't be able to bring most of his games.
Yeah, since I'm going to be downtown for work already, I'll be taking public transit in. I'll pack a couple of the smaller games in my bag though but I'm not sure I can make Apples to Apples fit o_O
Looking forward to it!
Currently playing bag tetris to try to see what I can carry.
Oh and I'm bringing Ascension, if anyone wants to play that.
You're a cookie-baking machine!
I've actually never played Ascension, so I might well be in for some of that. I've got the following in the car already:
Ticket to Ride
Stone Age
Settlers of Catan
Carcassonne
Puerto Rico
Munchkin
Illuminati
Apples to Apples
Smarty Party
Zombie Dice
Cthulhu Dice
I'll be swinging by the house on my way downtown tonight, so if anyone has any further requests, just let me know!
And, as someone else said earlier in another forum, your cookies are the future!
I had so much fun, can't wait til next time!!

It seems to be a common thing at the last two nights that someone teaches munchkin...tuesday we had a game go for almost 2 hours.

And we've also had a teaching game of 7 Wonders both nights, as well!
One of the people I spoke to has a huge game collection, so we should have even more things to play!

Should we pick a date now, or wait until about the middle of the month?
I'd be fine with it, but I know there are a number of people who are limited by public transportation, so might not be able to make it up north . . .

If a NH get together is desired, that can be scheduled separately - sound reasonable?
I think that'd be a good approach. A weekendish NH meetup would make things a bit more accessable I think too.
I'll make a post on the Boston subreddit, they seemed real excited about meeting fellow nerds and doing some gaming

Living in Lowell, a north of the city meet would be a lot easier for me to get to on a weeknight.
Pretty much what I was going to suggest. My only other suggestion would be that on occasion we have our JJ Foley's night on a weekend. I enjoy the Tuesday nights, but a weekend date will give others who find weeknights difficult a chance to join us.
I know that the T is a pain but being able to go out for drinks and not have to worry about the drive home is pretty nice as well.
