This group is a place where board (and card!) game designers can come together, try out designs, and meet with like minded fellows. We can meet to talk design, play games, and share the craft. The most important tool a game designer can have (beside his/her imagination) is play-testers. This group is open to game designers as well as non-game designers who are willing to play new games and give honest feedback. Any member can schedule a Meet-Up for any game related event... One of the most di …

Bang is an Italian tabletop RPG based on a spaghetti western theme. It's easy to learn, and you don't need to buy or bring anything to play with us! Players are randomly assigned roles: sheriff, deputy, renegade and outlaws. The law wins if the outlaws and renegade are killed. Outlaws win if the sheriff is killed. If you've played this game before, you know how delightful it is. My goal is to develop a scene for Bang! in Seattle, possibly eventually developing into tournaments. Bang has many sim …

Hello everyone! If you like Fun, Games, and Grub then you may want to join Games-N-Grub. We look forward to having a game night about once every two weeks as we bound our way into 2012. We will always bring some favorites to play. If you bring a game or two, they should be casual and social, with an average play time of about 30 minutes to an hour. Though Strategy and RPGs are wicked-fun, they are probably too deep and heavy for our typical game nights. It's totally cool if you want to become an …

We are a group of avid gamers from the Eastside of Lake Washington (Bothell, Kirkland, Kenmore, Redmond, Woodinville etc.) who love games and enjoy getting together to play once a month or so.

Aside from games, we can throw some money into the pot for a friendly tournament, order pizza, play cards, hang out, get to know one another and just have fun..  Also if anyone has a meetup idea feel free to sug …

Plus, we want people to bring games we haven't played! You might not know how to play any o …

Pickletennis is a modified game of tennis for pickleballers who want to save a little money, get a little fresh air, and get a little more smacking time in the process! Pickleballers are used to a faster paced game with more mixing, so we're modifying the following rules of tennis to achieve that aim. 1. Pickleball Scoring and Server Rotation. We adopt the pickleball scoring and server rotation because it makes more sense and makes the games go faster. Games to 11 means more potential for mixing …

Do you ever spend time on tumblr wishing that you could have the opportunity to bask in the presence of other tumblrites in real life? That you could find a community of fellow fangirls/fanboys/fanpeople to share in the shows, movies, or games that you love without the (sometimes wonderful, don't get me wrong) limitations of having a computer screen separating you? That someone would see your t-shirt/bracelet/backpack/whatever and recognize the fandom in-joke and be able to relate to you about i …

While the four biggest causes of chronic disease appear simple, they are incredibly hard to tackle as they require behaviour change: Inactivity, poor diet, alcohol and tobacco. So why do we find it so hard to stay motivated to make the daily choices required to keep us healthy? …
