Why, they're games one plays when one is board.

...I wish I was making that particular atrocity up; I've seen it in the wild before Written by someone who thought it was 100% correct.
Ok, even though my gaming group is called "Board Now Gaming," we at least know it's a play on words.
We're heading for the Origins Game fair next weekend. Just look for the t-shirts. ;-)

I think I remember board games . . . there might still be a few packed away somewhere in the house.

I'd have a game party but I really don't have enough people to invite over.

Aww DGoddess, I'll come. I love board games!!! Can't get my kids interested though It has to be on a computer for them to want to play it - even if it's computer version of a board game

Board games are Satanic now? Wonder what would have been said about my mate's Pilgrim's Progress board game...

Our house is piled with games. There's two huge boxes of games under the coffee table and the top of the DVD unit is piled high. We even have some of the Lego board games. One of my favourites is Roller Coaster Hippo!!

I've been trying to invent my own, but the rules have become long and confusing. I'll get back to it eventually. If I may pimp a supplier, Litko http://www.litko.net/ make loads of cheap and simple tokens and bases and tiles and other game parts, made of plastic and wood. I've ordered hexagonal tiles, and I have an order on the way with lots of customised RP tokens ^^ [/pimp]

It wasn't board games. It was just any game that I created. My mother was always like that. I had to learn to never admit that I liked anything. She'd decide it was evil and that we couldn't have it in the house.

God, I wish I still had those games so I could make pictures. Actually, I may have the remains of the last one I made, but I'd have to look for it.

I adore Clue, especially Master Detective. It's just that no one ever wants to play it.

The Super Mario game that I made had the figures to it. Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and one other figure that wasn't Toad. I didn't have him. It had two sets of cards. One for the question blocks, which you drew randomly, and one for the NSpade card game. It 8 boards to represent the 8 worlds of the game.

I love to create things. But because it's part of my autism, my family did everything they could to destroy that, too. They don't even like that I write books nobody's ever going to bother to read.

I will.

Though, I'll likely be spending most of my time with the Red Shirt Games crew in the minis hall. Origins is the only time I get to play their games, most of the time. Ratz uber alles!

I'm only day-tripping for Saturday, but I'll try to stop by.
