Club Library

No luck locating Colloseum yet then?

I PM'd rick and no reply yet... Being as we haven't seen him for a while I'm not hopeful.

Where are all these games kept anyway?

Some, people at the club have. Most, Craig has. In the past, he has responded to requests and brought them to the club but he hasn't been down in a while.
If we slowly filter them off him, we could start to keep track of who has what.

I have Kingsburg and Formula D

Not sure if I've met Craig, or if I know him by name. What's his username? I'm a helpful guy and if borrowing games would help get them back into club circulation... can I borrow Small World?

Rilkyn is his username. If you pm him, he should get back to you

If he doesn't reply I can send you his e-mail address...
Looks like he hasn't been to the forum (or at least signed in) since January!

If Craig's struggling to make it down on Tuesdays then I can always arrange a lunchtime pick up from him, assuming he still works around the corner from me.

Yeah, no reply. I could try his email address, though I would have thought he would get email notifications for PMs.

Updated, I've now got Agricola.

Aneurin

Could I possibly borrow Forumla D?

Thanks

Yep... I'll send you a PM with my number. Send me a text on Monday night/ Tuesday morning (before 8.30am) to remind me to stick it in the bag.

Hi Karl,

Can I borrow the Agricola bits please? Let me know a good time...

I guess not everyone will be aware that the club has a small library of games available. We're happy to lend these out, obviously there's a big trust element and we'd just ask that they're looked after ready for the next person.

There has been a discussion recently about whether we should sell some of these games. They aren't all classics and some rarely, if ever, get played. Any thoughts?

Maybe we could formalise a library type system of lending these out, and tracking who has what. If we're tracking it properly, we could see which games are not popular, and sell those. Maybe we could have a library sub-forum on here, with a sticky thread explaining the rules, and then one thread per game; where people log when they've took possession of a game, and also when they've passed it on to another member.

Can we play Kingsburg next week? And cargo?

Oo i'd like to play Kingsburg. Never tried it and been meaning to for ages.

Same

Count me in.

Kinda wanna try them all actually

Sorry just checked the list and I appear to be the holder of Kingsburg. I'll dig it out when I get home and
Bring it tomorrow for you. I think it's quite a good game and the dice worker-placement mechanic is making a return in some newer games (grand Austrian Hotel, Cavern Tavern etc)

Not tomorrow! Next week

Yes but I will bring it as I wont be down next week... agreed to play Rebellion with a friend

Have messaged Evan, MikeW, Neil(Cal) and Craig (rilkyn) requesting game returns. Would appreciate speedy returns so we can get things updated. If anyone has contact details for the latter few, might be worth using them...

Cheers
