Introverts unite! [Irony acknowledged here.]
At 7pm, Bring a modern or classic board game (I sense boggle in your future) or card game (Fluxx, anyone?) to the conference. Together, we'll own farms or otherwise level up.
You don't have to bring a game to participate: anyone can play! And don’t worry if you aren’t interested in playing any of the games, you can also come and just hang out.
Please add any games you will be bringing to the comments on this page & Thanks!

Carcassonne: with 6 expansions

Sold.
Sold.
Risk
I can bring two variations of Risk:
1) Traditional Risk
2) Starcraft 2 Risk
Awesomesauce!!
Those look fun!
MONOPOLY
I can bring Monopoly if that sounds interesting game to play..
Great idea!
Definitely!
Cards Against Humanity
I have several expansions for it too. If there's an interest, I'll bring my set. I know it's not a board game, but it is a fun game to play.
Family friendly for games
I'm glad you're as excited about this event as I am! It was great to chat with you after our training session.
As I mentioned, I've gotten a lot of requests to NOT have this particular game at Board Game night. There's concern that it would create an unwelcoming space.
And, of course, we fabulous Drupalistas want to make DrupalCon a great experience for Everybody!
Thanks for being so understanding!!
It's a pity, CAH is a great
It's a pity, CAH is a great game... but since this is a reasonably official evening, we can't bring it out. You're welcome to set up a game separately in a room or a bar or something of course, and I would probably even join! But for this event, it has to be family friendly games only.
Looking Forward To It!
Very much looking forward to joining you guys for this.
Sounds like there are a ton of good games on the roster already, but I did bring a copy of King of Tokyo if we want it - http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/70323/king-of-tokyo.
I have mostly two-player games with me...
...Morels, Jaipur, and Lost Cities. Plus Perquackey. And a deck of cards.
Two-Player definitely!
Yep, sounds like a great way to meet just one cool other person.
I'm in...
...if gaming is happening any time other than Wednesday evening, when I have a conflict. I have No Thanks, Love Letter, and Mascarade in my bag.

We had a great turnout last night and the Hilton lobby worked out just fine. Looking forward to tonight.
you were an inspiration!
Finding space was a pain & your delightful boldness inspired us to just make it happen in the lobby. Thanks for showing up BOTH nights!

Great time - To bad I had to leave early to do some scheduling.
Will the event reappear for Thurs & Fri?
I'm not sure I'll commit to
I'm not sure I'll commit to creating an event on here but I can almost guarantee you that I'll be in the Hilton lobby with games the next 2 nights (Thursday and Friday) so folks who are interested should stop by.
can't commit either, but lobby is open!
I've got other commitments, but I know LOTS of people brought games (& the lobby is open & conveniently next to purchaseable tea or coffee).
