Due to lack of input as well as former hosting sites such as p0wned having gone out of business, Tina is hosting a gaming night at her houseEmail her if you need address and/or directions. Start time is still in flux, probably 6 or 7 pm. Note that this is NOT our usual second Thursday, we pushed it back one night so people don't have to deal with getting to work in the morning.


We play whatever you bring.  Please consider bringing a folding table and chairs, board games, card games, video games, video game system accessories, and/or snacks and beverages.  RSVP's of the types of stuff you're bringing would be appreciated so we don't have overstocks of some items such as four people hauling their folding table and chairs, or everyone bringing chips.
