SEVENTY PEOPLE! That's the most people I can imagine doing anything at once. That's amazing, Ruel!

Yeah, that sounds right. I just made up the one with 14, assuming that was the largest game possible.

I don't have a specific place I'll be (like I don't have a reserved table in the UnPub room or anything), but I'll be around!

I'll have three prototypes with me for pitching and playing. Two are light-as-a-feather party games (one's about making hand gestures and one's about guessing characters), and the other is an only-slightly-heavier-than-that dice game (about Epcot center kind of). I hope they get played!

I love the unique use of dice here. Interested to hear what the game's all about. Very cool.

You don’t have to play games to appreciate a good deal!

Yeaaahhhh, GTW makes the cut! Thanks for playing, Ruel! Those are all fantastic games and perfect choices.

When we had a snow day, I wasn't allowed to leave the yard so I forgot sledding was an option.
And a gingerbread man isn't a cookie, it's a kind of bread!
(both of these are, of course, unassailable defenses).

Oh good! I hope you had fun with the holiday ones. You just reminded me to post about them. I forgot how many cards were in there!

This is one of our all-time favorites. I'm a little surprised it hasn't found a bigger audience. So much fun and absolutely rock solid mechanically. Miyabi!

The bugs are rapidly getting worked out and I assure you I’ll have it in my bag the next time you see me!
