Playing your unplayed games is fairly simple: Article I, code blue, section A, step / phase 1) determine if said game is still desirable. For determining desirability please reference Appendix 2, section D. For definition of desirability please reference glossary of terms in the D&D monster manual under “anthropomorphic animals”.

For those who want the tips but can’t be bothered to listen: just play the games. Easy. It’s like the board game equivalent of “if you’re depressed, just be happy”. Works like a charm every time.

Great venue, fun crowd, good topic, Tom burps into the microphone- wait... Tom burps into the microphone? Gather round and listen in agony as we recommend Monopoly Deal to some innocents. Hold on, I think I had another game as a backup for this topic. Actually wait, I had two games as backups for this topic. Never mind, just move on to the next slide please.

Came for the Minecraft villager sex scene, left moved by Dan's message on why our hobby is worth fighting for. Cringe. At the end of the day, aren't we all just adult babies in the making?
