The Rockville Games Club will be doing a virtual gaming meetup tonight at
7pm.
Recent play has included Hadara, A Feast for Odin, Terraforming Mars with
expansions and promos on a really great (but secret, shhhh!) "black" site,
Hadara, a clone of Great Western Trail, various variations of Concordia,
Hansa Teutonica, Teotihuacan, Puerto Rico, Saint Petersburg, Agricola, Gaia
Project (on another secret site), and probably many others I've forgotten.
To play with us, create a Discord.com account, and connect to
https://discord.gg/xvRWp7h, the FG server ;(Friday Gaming), and the
"General" channel for audio conferencing. After chatting with each other,
games will be decided and players will switch their audio to Table1, Table2,
etc. to play their games. Connect at 6:30 if you think you might need some
tech support and call me on 240 476 6429 if you actually need some.
In addition to announcing the virtual meetup, each Friday I'll be asking if
any gamers have become ready for a return to our traditional face-to-face
gaming at the church. We'd use all the safety protocols in place at our
last F2F gaming, with minor changes, plus a temperature check. This is a
bright group, so think about the benefits and risks. Reply to any of my
weekly reminders when you have concluded that the risk has become
acceptable, and you would now be willing to attend a F2F session employing
reasonable safety protocols. When we get a dozen "riskers," I'll ask the
church to let us resume F2F gaming. We're at just two now.
