Awesome!

So here's our current list of people:

Decar - paid
JT Atomico - paid
Halfling - paid
jungleboy - paid (3hrs)
DanisThirty - paid
Rich The Fish - paid
Cur194 - paid

If anyone else is intending on coming could you let us know!

The following games have been mentioned:
Carcassonne, Between Two Cities (2-player), 7 Wonders, ~~Twilight Imperium (only joking)~~, Carcassonne: South Seas, Go, Tsuro, Colt Express.

I'm tempted by a game of Goldrush / The Castle / The City. Hopefully we'll have German Cathedrals to try too.

Remembered to add Colt Express to the list for JungleBoy!

Last call for any late comers - I'll probably ring Thirsty Meeple this week and confirm our booking and check what games we can steal for the day.

I'm suspecting 6 hours might fly by pretty quickly - specially with all these games to play.

I'm going to ask Thirsty Meeples which they have in their library this week. It might be good if everyone can list the games they're interested in playing so we don't end up playing something we're not interested in. PLus we don't want to start Colt Express before Jungle Boy arrives, so that might be nice to finish on!

I've played Carcassonne, 7 Wonders, Carcassonne: South Seas, Tsuro of the Seas and Carcassonne: Goldrush

Not played the others. Intrigued by Colt Express....and now Twilight Imperium.

I do have German Cathedrals and the Labyrinths.

Colt Express plays 2-6 with an ETA of ~40min so we can save the last hour for this. But someone might need to sit out if there's 7 of us!

I've not played Twilight Imperium, but the game length is somewhere between 6-9hrs....

As Go is a 2 player game, would this be played alongside Between 2 Cities with a 3rd 2 player game required for the other 2 of us?

Decar · « **Reply #80 on:** March 31, 2016, 09:59:05 AM »

Carcassonne perhaps?

Between 2 Cities supports multiple players too, it's just I wanted to try it two players because it's a 'different' game.

I'd like to play 7 Wonders Duel and Tsuro in particular, but pretty happy playing whatever. Less than a month to go now ☺

Challenge Accepted - I'll show you 7WD if you show me B2C

I'm definitely up for some Carc spin offs, but am happy to try anything others are interested in too.

7 wonders has been on my to watch list for a while so that would be good and I really enjoy Colt express so always up for that!

Decar · « **Reply #84 on:** April 01, 2016, 01:42:51 PM »

Sounds like the day is taking shape! It also sounds like Curt know what's going on during Colt Express!

Carcassonne, 7W, more carcassonne, some 2 player games, maybe some spin offs and then more carcassonne and Colt Express to finish and if there's time....more carcassonne!

25 Days to go!!!

Nottingham seems to have a lot of places to play boardgames!

Perhaps you could case the joints and work out which might be best for us to drop into.

Planning to visit Ludorati sometime in the next month. They appeared on The Dice Towers latest board game breakfast video should you want a peak then check it out at 8:58 https://youtu.be/p-lQFAFxVLo?t=8m58s

I jump through these long videos and missed the start of the segment when it came out on Tuesday (I think). When I saw the cafe I assumed it was in America somewhere. Looks nice and definitely worth a check out! Let us know when you are headed down, it's unlikely I'll make this Saturday, nor the Saturday after and Guess where we are the Saturday After that!!

@Rich The Fish - I heard there are two two-player variants for Between Two Cities, one uses a dummy 3rd Player - which do you prefer?

Only played the game about half a dozen times and the two player version once. Not tried the alternative 2P variant yet, but will try to before we meet up.
