Doug
Becky
Mikael
Chelsey

Thanks.

We would love to have people sign up for the waiting list for the D&D campaign as we may need to fill spots from time to time & you could join even if it is for a single session. This will be a bit more of an advanced campaign so it may not be for all experience levels. For that reason, I will be running another session on alternating Tuesdays in the learn to play format for new or, returning from years away, experience levels. People that just want to see what D&D is about & maybe not interested in committing to anything beyond a 1 or 2 session event are also welcome. Message me directly if you have any questions & I would be happy to help as I am able. Take care.

Confirming for D&D. Thanks Mac!

Would there be any interest in playing Lost Ruins of Arnak, either this week or next? We're hardly experts but would be happy to bring it and teach the basics. It plays up to 4 people, with 30 minutes per player. Or if you're an Arnak veteran and would like to teach/share your insights, that would be excellent as well. :)

I LOVED this game when I played it in Saskatoon for the first time a few weeks ago.  I hope you bring it out again :)

So many fun games!! I'd be happy to do that, Tamara. We don't own the expansion(s) yet, but I'm keen on trying Jessica's copy and may get my own soon. The new campaign expansion looks really cool.

Please sign Sara up for New York Zoo.

I would love to play this game sometime Carmen - I hope you are able to bring it out again sometime and it works out to be a Tuesday that we do not have D&D. So many games, so little time!  :)

Would the 30th or early June work, Doug? I don't know your D&D schedule, or the Oathsworn schedule for Tamara...

Not sure of our D&D plans yet myself, but we will probably know a little more about when and how often we will be playing after this week. Will check back in with you Carmen. Shane is going to bring Everdell out again one of these weeks too! (So many great games) Thanks. :)

Hello! I'm so sorry, but something came up and I won't be able to make my games tonight. I hope you guys have fun!! :)

Sorry to do this, but I won't be able to make it tonight.  Please sign me out of Lost Ruins or Arnak.

Please add me to newyork zoo and splendor

Sara is sick, so she won't be able to play New York Zoo.

I'm gonna have to post pone Brass. I'm currently stuck at work and don't know when I will be done. I'll show up tonight at some point and if people still want to play we can.
