Just that I usually play Sea of Thieves at around 9pm on Friday. (Arrrrg!) 1 1
Glen-i Posted September 13, 2020 Author Posted September 13, 2020 OK, Friday 8pm it is. I'll update my previous post. 2
Glen-i Posted September 18, 2020 Author Posted September 18, 2020 Shout out to @S.C.G, @drahkon and @viceview51. Card games start in just under 45 minutes. Don't get too distracted playing with Italian plumbers. 3
Glen-i Posted September 18, 2020 Author Posted September 18, 2020 Room's open now, @drahkon, @viceview51 and @S.C.G 2
drahkon Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 OK... guys? That's enough for the second round 1 1

drahkon Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Maybe reduce the amount of rounds we play for next time? This is getting a little boring, to be honest.

Glen-i Posted September 18, 2020 Author Posted September 18, 2020 That was some quality card chucking there. Last Card was absolutely ripe for comedy though. 1 hour ago, drahkon said: OK... guys? That's enough for the second round I'm pretty sure all of us jumped the gun with declaring Last Card at least once, surprisingly easy to do. Oh, and @Ugh first aid was watching and says this next one was the best moment of the night. She's right. 1

I swear to god, the only time it happened to me was because it was lagging like crazy I pressed the button, it didn't register...but I thought: why not press the button to lay down a card after that? That was a mistake Anyway, I much prefer games like these. The lag isn't too much of a problem and there's at least some strategy involved
Glen-i Posted September 19, 2020 Author Posted September 19, 2020 So, like the first 4-player session, you'll get points for the place you came in each round (4 for 1st, 3 for 2nd, and so on). Person with the most points wins that game and get the 4 points for their table placing. Last Card @viceview51 - 15 points @drahkon - 14 points @S.C.G - 11 points @Glen-i - 10 points President @Glen-i - 9 points @drahkon - 8 points (6 2nds) @viceview51 - 8 points (2 2nds) @S.C.G - 5 points OK, yeah, let me explain. I went to break that tie by looking at the number of times the two of you ended a round of President as the actual President. (The person who got rid of their cards first) You both decided to be awkward and did that 4 times, so I moved to all the 2nd places you got. And that's how I broke the tie. Got any questions, feel free to ask. Here's the table after 12 games. 1
Glen-i Posted September 19, 2020 Author Posted September 19, 2020 Time for the next gaming session... I've been dreading this one... So you like a bit of Chess then, do you? This week's Game: Chess This game will be played once. Bracketing @viceview51 VS @Glen-i @drahkon VS @S.C.G Rules: First Move - Random Yep, it's Chess. Not Draughts, Poker, Subbuteo, Snakes & Ladders or even Monopoly. It's Chess! I feel like this is important to point out. 51 Worldwide Games has a series of tutorials on learning how to play Chess. I highly recommend going through them if you're unfamiliar with how it's played. Of course, I'm very smart and am certainly not the kind of peasant who has never played Chess in his life.There we go, that should throw them off... I really wanted to use that clip of Holly suggesting games to play while Queeg repeatedly shouts "Chess" at him, but couldn't find it anywhere. 1
drahkon Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 @S.C.G I won't be able to make it on Saturday How about Friday night?
viceview51 Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 @Glen-i do you think it's possible to have our sessions earlier in the week?

viceview51 Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 It's ok - I'll try to join, in the worst case scenario (internet not working) we could reschedule to next week (Friday, 2nd October). 1

I'll just meet my friends later on Friday, then

If you can't make it work, no worries. I'll just meet my friends later on Friday, then Yeah, that could work. Mario Kart league at 8pm but... I don't think our Chess game will last an hour, I played a few games of it when I first got the collection and typically, the games were decided within a few moves, for all the variations in Chess, a lot of games seem to go a similar way once you get past the opening four moves or so, I've found. I'm not even seriously into Chess, I just used to play it a little bit when I was younger, it'll be great to play a game with you though. 1
