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.

In one of his sillier games, Karl-Heinz Schmiel casts the players as semi-psychotic cooks attempting to hone their culinary skills. Each player receives a miniature pan and a hotplate. Then each turn you can either attempt to turn up the heat, season your dish, or attempt to steal another cook's recipe in the making. Heating your hotplate is a random affair with a die, and could raise the heat on everyone's plate. Spicing the dish is heart of the game and done by up-ending small bottles filled with little colored wood pellets. When the pellets tumble out of the bottle (sometimes, if they do), the number of pellets can't exceed two, because over-spicing the dish ruins it and you have to throw it in the trash!

We've been playing a Twilight Struggle League on Tuesdays. In an effort to gain more players i will be teaching the game this Tuesday. So if you've been at all interested now is the chance to sign up to learn to play. The rules really are quite simple to learn for such a deep strategy game.
On BGG, it's the no 1 rated strategy game, the no 1 rated war game (even though it's not a war game) and simply the no 1 rated game. If you're interested in strategy games it's something you should try out.

What time did you want to start the learning session, Mark?

I wouldn't mind learning twilight struggle.  From the reviews it seems to be a good game.

I'll try out cinque terre. I'll also have a goody bag of who-knows-what games.

Just realized I'm not the Ambassador or the Game Teacher so I'm going to sign up for Cinque Terre.

I'll be there at 6:30.

I've been wanting to learn Twilight Struggle.  Sign me up, please.
