Ra, Kluster, and Crokinole tonight. That's a pretty good Wednesday. I think each game had at least two new players for them. #BoardGames #WednesdayGameNight #Crokinole #RaBoardGame #Kluster

Andrea and I went to Painting with a Twist. Last month I told Andrea to pick one of the nights, and she picked "paint your pet". I think we did a pretty good job. @ricksmrs.bsky.social #BarryDogo #PreciousKitty #PaintNight #PaintingWithaTwist

Andrea and I got Propolis to the table yesterday. Andrea liked the engine building element and I liked the worker-placement aspect. I think we like this even more than Point Galaxy. @ricksmrs.bsky.social @flatoutgames.bsky.social #BoardGames #Propolis #WeekendGaming #417Gamers

August was just as light on the gaming as July. Definitely some quality gaming in there, but we'll see if September can improve those numbers. @ricksmrs.bsky.social @bgstatsapp.bsky.social #BoardGames #BoardGameStats

Playing some Free Ride and Point Salad last night. Haven't had a Monday Game Night in a bit. Free Ride was really good at 3. Cool decisions and good test of our geographic knowledge. Point Salad is always a good palette cleanser. #BoardGames #MondayGameNight

Question of the Weekend from the 417Gamers and MoonCityCon What is a game from 10+ years ago, you're surprised is still played consistently? #BoardGames #WeekendGaming #QuestionOfTheWeekend

Not a bad way to end the weekend. Two game plays knocked out on our 10x10 board. Wyrmspan was suggested while we ate homemade pizza(not pictured). I caught a couple good dragons to start off the crimson cavern, and built a decent engine. I kept it churning all the way to the win. #BoardGames
