If you would like to schedule a game. Please post in this event thread with the following information:
Name of the game, when you would like to start, The duration of the game, and the number of players it can accommodate.


Due to the overwhelming success of ChewsDay Challenge we might need to limit table space in the early evening if attendance is high and the restaurant is busy. We ask that larger-sized games be planned for 7:30 and later after Boston Pizza's dinner rush when we can spill out into the dining area, if needed, and with the restaurant's permission.  Please be considerate when choosing your table area to maximize player density. Thank you for helping make ChewsDay Challenge a success!

I'll try this one more time,

GAME TITLE: Baltimore and Ohio
TEACHER: Mark M
START TIME: 6:30
DURATION: 4 hrs
# OF PLAYERS: 3-6
URL: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/43307/baltimore-ohio (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/43307/baltimore-ohio)

It really is a terrific game. In my opinion, the best of the train boardgames.

I'll bring out the dice/worker placement game Alien Frontiers with the Outer Belt Expansion (which just came out). We may throw in the Factions Expansion, too, but we'll see what the players think on Tuesday.

New players are welcome - I'll start off by teaching the game. It's usually around 90min but with teaching that may push it to 120min. And while it plays more, I want to keep it to 4 players (anything more than that can make the game too long).

And I'll also bring out the negotiation game Chinatown (it just got reprinted). Players are merchants in the Chinatown district of 1960's New York, trying to build the biggest businesses to get the best pay-out. But what the game really boils down to is pure negotiation (the main phase of each turn is a negotiating free-for-all). Everyone tries to trade plots of land, various stores and the least amount of money so they can expand their businesses and end up with the most money in the end.

Everyone's welcome to play - it's pretty straight-forward (though just a heads-up that it's on the more-interactive side). The box says 60min but with teaching and new players I'd say 90min, instead.

GAME TITLE: Chinatown
