I'm going to try to make it up from Richmond. Pending traffic I should be there in time for a 1 PM start. I'm fine to play most anything, but would like to learn a medium-heavy game since my group down here prefers older mediumer stuff. I'm thinking I can probably stay until or possibly through dinner time.

Gaming is on for tomorrow, 6/22!
I'm still happy to play Path of Civilization, Let's go to Japan (relatively new games I own).
I played Pipeline yesterday and can teach that, if anyone is interested. It's middle to heavy but plays fairly quick for that range (I think yesterday was 2.5 hours, with :30 of that being teaching).
But I am most interested in playing what YOU want to play. What is that?
Or we can try this one from far future me. It won't exist for 200 years, tho:
Quantum Entanglement
In the 32nd century, the game of Quantum Entanglement captivates the galaxy. Players navigate a holographic board representing a multiverse of possibilities, each decision creating ripples across dimensions. Using quantum tokens and entanglement cards, they manipulate probabilities, alter timelines, and forge alliances with alternate versions of themselves.
Victory comes not through brute force, but through mastering the delicate dance of cause and effect. The game demands foresight, adaptability, and a willingness to embrace the unknown. A single move can collapse realities, create paradoxes, or unlock unimaginable potential.
Quantum Entanglement is more than just a game; it's a philosophical exploration of free will, destiny, and the interconnectedness of all things. Its greatest players are not just strategists, but visionaries who dare to rewrite the rules of existence itself.

Greetings, my fellow tacticians and champions!
A foul beast, a foe most unwelcome, has laid siege to my very insides! This wretched ailment, a gremlin of the gut if you will, has forced me to retreat and lick my wounds within the sterile halls of the healers' keep (otherwise known as the hospital).
Therefore, with heavy heart, I must announce the postponement of our glorious 4th Saturday board game campaign! Fear not, brave adventurers, for this setback is but a temporary skirmish. We shall regroup and resume our epic battles as soon as I am fit to wield the dice once more!
In the meantime, I urge you all to hone your strategies, polish your miniatures, and fortify your snack reserves. When I return, the clashes will be all the more ferocious!
I shall send a raven (or, more likely, an email) with a new date for our board game conquest as soon as the healers declare me fit for battle.
Until then, may the dice favor you, and may your bellies be ever full of victory rations!
With valiant apologies,
John
P.S. Should any of you possess potent elixirs or legendary healing spells, please send them my way at your earliest convenience!
P.P.S. I'm out of the hospital and back at work, just very low in energy, I'm sure I'll be back on my feet for 2nd saturday of may.

A cryptic scroll has been unearthed, bearing the sigil of ABG. It whispers of a challenge:
Where: The Kerr Cavern (normal place)
When: The second Saturday unfolds, 1pm+
Quest: Conquest of the cardboard realms
Will you answer the call, brave heroes?

To my esteemed colleagues and cunning cyborgs,
I extend an urgent summons. A critical nexus point, where strategy and intellect collide, will form tomorrow at the first hour past noon. Engage your logic engines and tactical subroutines for an afternoon of board game domination. Let us prove whether organic minds or synthetic circuits reign supreme!
In order to calibrate the Trans-Dimensional Gateway and ensure sufficient energon reserves, please transmit a confirmation signal if you will be able to attend this momentous occasion.
May your processors run cool and your algorithms be ever-victorious!
Sincerely,
Your Host
JaKayaton Prime

Opps, domain errors for a little while there.
Howdy doo!
So I was worried, I woke up last night with a dry cough for a while. It doesn't appear to have progressed into anything and I'm feeling ok now, but I guess I could be fighting something in the background. If something reasserts, I will say.
If that doesn't scare you off, gaming is on for tomorrow!
Who thinks they're up for it? What's going on with you? Doing well?
Before we have the next game day we will have sprung back! How about that?
Sorry for the health wishy washiness, but all I can think to do is say what's up and let you decide!

Hey, Gaming is on this Saturday!
Plus, we have a visit from our old friend, Llywelyn, who is flying in that very afternoon and joining us right from Dulles.
What better reason to come out than to game with an old friend?
Who is coming and what do you want to play?

I appear to have finally broke my anti-wellness streak and am hosting gaming tomorrow!
I do need to cut off around 9, which isn't much of an issue nowadays.
1pm! Who can make it and what do you want to play?

Sorry for the late notice, but I seem to have picked up another bug. I'm not sure what's making me so susceptible lately. It doesn't seem like anything serious, but the last thing I want to do is make anyone sick for the holidays.
Apologies again and I hope that everyone has a wonderful Christmas, maybe with a game or two under the tree!
