So I had three people join me for games, same number as last time, right? :-) First we played Beyond the Sun, which I won, although I didn't realize how far ( Read more... )

For my first post-pandemic Game Day, I asked my good friend Steve which day worked best for him, and then I grew the rest of the Game Day around the two of us.  That worked well!  For my second post-pandemic Game Day, I tried this with a different friend, and it didn't work so well.  Only three people showed up, and we had fun, but I started to ( Read more... )
