Thank you, Shane!!

The Academy Award nominations are released early in the morning on the 23rd, and, since I'm guessing that the name Oppenheimer will come up a few (12? 13?) times, I figured something I would bring something thematically appropriate for the occasion.

Please add Bryan to New York Zoo and put both me and Bryan in for Smartphone Inc. Sara's going to stay home that night.

I'd love to try New York Zoo but I'm pretty sure we are on for D&D for the 23rd.  Hopefully you can bring this one out another time Shane.

Don't worry, I'll make him haha. I love this game — could probably almost teach it myself now. It's on my list to buy. One way or another it will make another appearance at Chewsday.

Awesome.  Thanks Jen!  (and Shane haha)

I would like to try new york zoo please

Still wonder what happened after the events of Scythe because we didn't get the chance to find out last week? A game in the world of Scythe but very different from it - worker placement, tile exploration, and card-based engine building.
I have included the names of the people that had signed up when I had to cancel. They are given priority this week (please confirm).
It is a bit of a table hog, so if we are not on the round table we might have to pull a couple together...
