This meetup has been going on since about November 2011, as a place to organize weekly game nights. We play mostly Euro-style strategy games, such as those found on boardgamegeek.com.

Together, we will discuss game theory, game ideas, design concepts, the process of prototyping, playtest existing designs …

You wear your Chuck Tailors more often then high heels. Sarcasm and irony are part of your repertoire. You're classy most of the time but love a little trashy here and there. You relish in the tackiness of the Tonga Room/Medieval Times/Madonna Inn because they're all so ridiculous. Your tongue is sticking out in 75% of the photos you're in. You typically find yourself hanging out with guys and every once and a while you think "I could use a couple of friends who are female". You secretly l …
My wife and I just moved from the North Bay where I had a weekly D&D group to the East Bay (Concord) where we don't know anyone. I'm not interested in starting another D&D/RPG group, as it just eats up too much of my time/energy and my work schedule has become too unpredictable to allow me to play steady at a D&D table right now. I work at a Hotel and work some weird hours (swings and graveyards) and my days off can shift around. That's why I'm looking to start a more casual gaming group. This w …
