> Board Games Weekend + Auction
Saturday/Sunday Week 5
Posted by James - 8-02-10 12:49 - 10 comments
This coming weekend (13th - 14th February) sees our Termly boad games weekend. We have S0.09 in Social Studies booked between 9am and 11pm on both the Saturday and Sunday, and will have a wide variety of games for folk to play, so turn up whenever you like and join in!

In addition, on the Saturday evening (provisionally at 6pm) We'll be auctioning of some of the Society's rarely-played games and duplicate books, to raise a bit of cash and clear some storage space. We've not finalised the details yet, but I'm going to post a list of games currently not being regularly brought to meetings to give you all a flavour of what's likely to be on offer:

Next Monday (Week 5/8th February) we're holding our latest group discussion, this time on how design a good board game or role-playing game. The discussion will be very informal, so whether you've got thoughts you'd like to share, or just want to turn up and listen for ideas, we very much hope you'll come and join us.
