After a bit of a social media and side-project hiatus, I'm back. Really needed a break, but excited to start working on Let's Play Board Games again.
Next up: adding share-able links to the events, to avoid needing to send emails.

Playing Bandido with my 5-year-old. A really nice and simple co-op 😊
I’m enjoying this way more than I thought.

Hello! Thought I’d drop an #introduction since I’m fresh from the bird app. I’m Ada, a photographer and board gamer. I am currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer, so that has taken up my life lately. I don’t know what this new social space will mean for me, but I’m excited to try something new!

You’re not the product anymore. You’re a community member in your host’s ad-free server they pay for. There’s no venture capitalist payday coming for them. Everything you do here costs your host a little bit of money. Find out how you can chip in.

Still, after 4 hours of being available to all the guests and after explaining rules to 6 different games (on top of having a normal working day + being with my kids), I'm completely exhausted.

Happy, but exhausted 😅​

The event was again a huge success. Since this is a small town, everyone is so thankful that an event like this even exists.

I feel privileged to be able to introduce more people to modern board games. And it's the best feeling when people leave happy and excited about board games (which is always the case). And even better when they come back week after week 🥳​

Oh and my favorite thing? Having people attend who are a bit unsure if they’ll be into board games or not, so they say they’re coming just for 1 hour. And then after 4,5 hours I have to ask them to leave so we can close up 😁 such a great feeling 😊

Really excited to host board game night at a local community center again tonight. We managed to make 4 hours of gaming free for all to attend 😊 it’s once every two weeks which seems like a good balance for now.

Today a group of 14-year-olds are attending as well. I have to figure out what they might be interested in playing. Maybe Avalon, or Escape: The Curse of the Temple? We’ll see, but any suggestions? 😊

Thought I would try this again as I didn't grok the rules before my first post.

I'm Iain McAllister a tabletop critic and podcaster based in Scotland. I've been writing about games for about 8 years and podcasting for coming up on 5.

I write about all sorts of tabletop games and topics on The Giant Brain website. My podcast Brainwaves is industry news focused and sometimes covers less than savoury topics.

So, now that we are moved to the right offering, we can upgrade the server size.

There will be more downtime, hopefully it will be 10 to 20 minutes only.

I will happen sometime in the next couple of hours I think.
