huge-normous munchkin game?

...anyone down?
I was a bit overwhelmed in 2007, but even in my blank-eyed wandering i'm pretty sure I saw a total of no-one throwing down OG munchkin style.
I've never played with more than 8 people, but a crazy-big game could be interesting...(?)

Also, an after hours (post-pub-crawl?) game of Drunken Uno sounds like fun with strangers!

    Sounds fun, but people will want to go sleep after for PAX the next day.

    Caught a crew playing in line the first day. These people shall be remembered as those sparked my interest in the game through my spectating. This has lead to me having Munchkin Original (with addons 2 and 4), Munchkin Bites!, Munchkin Impossible, Space Munchkin, and Munchkin Blender.

    I completely support playing Munchkin. And if I end up going to PAX this year, will bring along my cards.

    I do not have much experience playing Munchkin, and everytime I did it was with 4-5 people. So, I forget, would you expect a 8+ player game be shorter or longer?

    Oh, I'm down if I see it about to happen.

    I played some Munchkin at PAX last year. I'm willing to give a huge game a shot, but I think it might just get bogged down with that many players.

    Guys guys guys

    Munchkin is a terrible game

    At least play flux. Its just random, not intentionally terrible.

    I was glad I brought Fluxx with me last year. My brother and I would be playing in lines or at random tables and random folks would ask to join in (players can join at any time). Got some decent sized games going. Good fun. :)

    Yeah. This sounds like the best idea EVER.

    How many levels shall we play to? 10? 20? 30?

    This will be the third year in a row that my crew rolls One Thousand Blank White Cards late night game at PAX, but that's usually a trainwreck on its own without others.

    Munchkin should never be played with more then 6 people. Games with 10+ end up being everyone waiting around well one person decides what to do. Im pretty sure I was playing munckin that first night for like 2-3 hours on the board game free play tables.

    Fluxx is fun, unless you were one of the people on the train trip who had to play against me. I had draw 6 play all down. I played all 8 of my cards at the time, last card I played rotated hands clockwise, played those, switched hands with another guy, played those, threw down the restart you turn card, played all of those and one the game there. It was like the gaming gods came down and smiled on me.

    i am filled with joy that others want to partake of the madness, though as noted it could get gross at around ten people- maybe amorphically large numbers of people to level 30?
    Though this fluxx game, via google, has INTRIGUED me most certainly. Most.
    Maybe I just wasn't paying enough attention last year. I was dazed, initially for no good reason, and later for better ones :) we were the cool kids of Freeway.

    A gigantic munchkin game? How sweet! I'm down. I can even bring my own deck for it.

    I know, I play munchkin. There's nothing wrong with combining two peoples' decks, it just doubles the amount of available cards.

    Yup. Only problem is picking them apart later.

    Even if they didn't put a deck in?

    Sweet. I'll definitely play then.
