I am not sure we can make it, my cat decided to try to eat one of the vet techs last week and got herself "officially quarantined" and she has to go back to the vet, fully drugged, at noon on Saturday (to verify she doesn't have rabies and to draw the blood they were unable to get last time). Since we are also leaving for a cruise on Sunday, I'm thinking it's probably unlikely.

We miss you though!!!

Who is interested? Have anything you'd like to play?

Just wanted to thank George, Anye, and Jeff for showing up and playing with me last Saturday and, of course, to John for hosting... for over 20 years! I wish I could make it up from Richmond more often.

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
