It was a smallish store, with a rather large cadre of "regulars" who appear to spend a lot of their time there enjoying a LOT of games. We started events around 6pm Friday evening with several rounds of Are You a Werewolf? First round had a village of 11, I believe, by the 3rd game we were up to a village of 15 with people clamoring for more. Timothy made an *excellent* moderator and fun was had by all. We were able to run several games in quick succession because this village was Uber-Quick to decide who to lynch in the morning. I believe that the werewolves won the majority of the games, but fun was had by all. With six (or was it 7?) rabbits at this event there were plenty of folks who knew the games to go around, and we managed to stay busy playing games for several hours. After AYAW we split up around the store at the various tables and started in on other games. Fluxx made an early appearance and, at my table, we played several rounds. Folks were getting the hang of the game and playing fairly cutthroat and the 3rd game ended up taking ... 45 min or so? It was a looong game, but fun! Not sure what was going on at the other tables, but after Fluxx I was offering games to one of the newbies there and she'd never played any pyramid games, so we started out with a 5-player round of Martian Coasters, followed by a 4-player round of Volcano (which I *love*) and then did a few rounds of Zendo. Our last round of Zendo finished up as the growing desire from the group for more Werewolf was becoming quite apparent. By this point I'd been playing games for something like 6 hours and was getting pretty beat, so I bowed out and just watched a few rounds of Werewolf. Again there was a village of 15 and fast-lynchings and much laughter! Meanwhile, in the other room, a group continued on with Chrononauts. I had a lovely time with a fascinating group of people who really seemed to appreciate a chance to learn new games. Having 6 (or was it 7?) rabbits at the event was a LOT of fun! Looks like we're going to be a fairly active Warren. Timothy is a rather ENTHUSIASTIC leader and is already lining up other venues. Just yesterday he found another Brand New Game Store and has already begun talking to them about hosting an Experiment. ---------- End Forwarded Message ---------- Carol ========= Carol Townsend Rabbit Wrangler and Con Schnook http://rabbits.looneylabs.com/?RabbitUserID=CarolT and The Looney Labs Rabbit Team http://www.looneylabs.com rabbit-support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (301) 441-1019 (main office) (630) 448-4946 (Chicago office) (301) 441-4871 <-- FAX
