Gaming for May 10th CANCELLED Regular gaming will resume on the 4th Saturday, 5/24.

For those looking for an alternative, please check the 'members' section of this board (you'll have to be logged in and flagged as a previous attendee, let me know if that is you and you still can't see the section).

ABG google plus community I am slowly moving to the use of a google plus community for the Game Day events, though I imagine I will always post about them here, as well.

I encourage everyone to check out the community at https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/100521446956165718736

Probably you can't see much until you are part of the community. It does require the use of a google plus account.. I've been using it fairly heavily for more than a year and find it a useful tool. Let me know if need an invite!

Advantages of using a google plus community:

- Invitation system to game day events that make it easily to reply in-email.
- Easy to share with other ABGers, comments, photos, videos, links
- Possible google hangouts provides live chat, possible live-streaming of game days. Dunno if we will use this, but it could be fun and/or handy
- Integration with most devices, including 'event' functionality that makes it easy to share during the event.

Disadvantages
- ? If you dislike the idea of google plus or google in general, might not be for you.

Let me know if you have any questions or problems. Of course, you can always create a bogus gmail account to use for this, if you have security concerns. I'm happy to switch over to a real account if need be in the future. There's probably some good way to have notifications forwarded to your 'real' account, as well.

August? Time is flying! Good grief, it is already August! How are you progressing towards your yearly gaming goals? I know I haven't played nearly as many games as I intended.

Come, we can work on this together! Gaming is on for tomorrow, August 9th, the 2nd saturday game day.

Who will make it? Turn out might be light, as this intersects with WBC...

Fourth Saturday gaming, 9/27 is on Hey, folks, sorry for the short notice, but gaming tomorrow, 9/27 is possibly cancelled. There is a family situation going on with Sheila (her Aunt had a stroke and isn't recovering) which might require our immediate attention. It is all very much in flux, though, so I will update this either late tonight or early tomorrow to say if it's happening or not. I think it is unlikely I will need to cancel, but possible. Let me know if you think you will attend if it is happening.



Edit - gaming is on! Come on by!

2nd Saturday gaming is pretty darn likely! Gaming, tomorrow at 1pm. 90% likely (and more likely if you tell me you're coming). Check back to be sure, but I think it will be on.
