Event Description

Until it's safe to play face-to-face we'll keep a weekly game night online so we can maintain some mental stimulation!

We use a Discord server now, it is complicated but does seem to be better quality. Here's the link to EvilSmurfistan: https://discord.gg/TTQj7RHHpa
This link never changes from night to night, it will always be the same link.

We can play via chat in Discord, where 1 person usually has a physical game that they share w/ everyone over the app (like trivia, charades, etc), or we usually go to www.boardgamearena.com (BGA) and pick something there. You need an account/username (free & requires only an email) so we can invite you to play with our group. Takes a few mins to set up.

There's 100s of games on BGA, feel free to browse their website.

We also play games through other websites:
Pictionary- skribbl.io
Some card games- playing cards.io
Catan- colonist.io
Boggle- ewordchallenge.net
Monopoly/Scrabble/few others- Boardgamesonline.net
Codenames- horsepaste.com
Scattergories- really.boring.website/lobby
(We also have our own lists we've made, feel free to add to them here:

Telestrations- brokepicturephone.com

We can vote on whatever sounds good, play all, play 30 rounds of 1, whatever. If anyone has their own games they think will work over this platform, I'm always open to ideas and input!

This meetup will be on alternating Friday evenings.

PLEASE BE ADVISED: Unfortunately I have to post this now, sorry. It should go without saying but hate speech like mean racist jokes, putting other people down, homophobia, anti-mask/vaccination, etc will not be tolerated and you'll get the boot. ONE chance, that's it. Also if you're not paying attention, cheating or have too much background sound that detracts from the game for everyone else, boot too.
